This is our organization's single focus, and every dollar we receive and spend is for this sole activity. In 2023, we coordinated approximately 18,000 students in the USA to exchange artwork with children in Nigeria, India, Jordan, Cameroon, Colombia, and Malaysia. Grants were given to the children's organizations and individuals that partnered with us in those countries, as well as to our previous partners from Afghanistan who have been living as refugees since the Taliban came to power. 0 0 0 297250 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 2 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 5 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 WI X X Benjamin Schumaker 6084670974 2163 N Gateway St Middleton WI 53562 Benjamin Schumaker President / Treasurer 50 0 X X X X 60000 0 25720 Debbie Schumaker Secretary 5 0 X X 0 0 0 Jim Schumaker Director 5 0 X 0 0 0 Abha Thakkar Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Adam Schumaker Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 60000 0 25720 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 132325 0 132325 Educational Support Services 611710 219426 219426 0 0 0 0 0 0 219426 20445 20445 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 372196 239871 0 0 8456 8456 0 0 123992 123992 0 0 85720 85720 0 0 0 0 0 0 10000 10000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 5202 5202 0 0 1818 1818 3655 3655 44728 44728 Mailing to participants 4160 4160 0 0 Printed materials for participants 1826 1826 0 0 SBA EIDL payments 7692 7692 0 0 Fraction of cents 1 1 0 0 297250 297250 0 0 67494 40525 402363 533716 0 0 0 0 147273 138437 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 28875 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 646005 712678 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 146710 138437 146710 138437 X 563 0 0 0 498732 574241 499295 574241 646005 712678 74946 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X 17390 8340 264404 148330 132325 570789 361934 263543 181595 222580 219426 1249078 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 379324 271883 445999 370910 351751 1819867 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1819867 148 213 2683 6672 20445 30161 0 0 0 0 0 0 148 213 2683 6672 20445 30161 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 379472 272096 448682 377582 372196 1850028 0.98370 0.99460 0.01630 0.00540 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 1 North America (including Canada and Mexico, but not the United States) 0 0 Grantmaking 55112 South Asia 0 0 Grantmaking 40206 East Asia and the Pacific 0 0 Grantmaking 6000 Middle East and North Africa 0 0 Grantmaking 5854 Sub-Saharan Africa 0 0 Grantmaking 5400 South America 0 0 Grantmaking 5000 Europe (including Iceland and Greenland) 0 0 Grantmaking 4820 Central America and the Caribbean 0 0 Grantmaking 1600 0 0 123992 South Asia Arts and education. 8700 Wire transfer 0 East Asia and the Pacific Arts and education. 6000 Wire transfer 0 South Asia Arts and education. 5892 Wire transfer 0 3 0 Support to refugees.
