In 2023, school supplies were provided to 3,600 students who are eligible for free and reduced lunch.Apples for Students is organized and facilitated by St. Mark in collaboration with the schools, area businesses, and community volunteers. Every year in May/June, the process begins to identify students in need and every year we identify increasing numbers of students. (Continued on Schedule O)Students in need are referred to us by their schools or a human service agency. We then solicit the community by approaching individuals, churches, and area businesses to donate money to purchase the supplies. St. Mark buys supplies in bulk because it is cost effective to do this during the months of July and August. In August, St. Mark rallies 100 volunteers that organize and sort the supplies, package the required materials by grade and needs of the school, deliver the supplies, and clean up. Approximately 400 hours of volunteer work takes place. Individual bags of school supplies are then delivered to the school buildings where they are distributed to students upon starting school.The program reduces the expense and anxiety on families who cannot afford the needed school supplies so that their children can go to school prepared and empowered to learn. This project cultivates support from a community that values education and ensures equitable access to the tools needed to be successful, so students are able to focus on learning in comfort. 1031202 1 1 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 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 11 0 1 64 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 14 14 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 0 0 X Dawn Cogan 5635826211 1201 Locust Street Dubuque IA 52001 Brad Scardino Chair 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Nikki Kiefer Vice Chair 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Jennie Brown Secretary 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Sarah Reicks Treasurer 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Dan Wellik Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Derek Atherley Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Karla Nedder Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Lisa Bowers Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Michelle Reidy Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Myia Steines Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Sandra Gonzales-Denham Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Tommy Lange Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Wendy McKernan Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Dawn McCoy Trustee 1.00 X 0 0 0 Dawn Cogan Executive Director 40.00 X 85038 0 12371 85038 0 12371 0 0 0 0 0 37500 149607 445784 592317 22306 1225208 School Year Programs 624110 106065 106065 106065 10384 10384 6584 149607 13330 -6746 -6746 4160 2548 1612 1612 1336523 106065 0 5250 54739 54739 97409 4871 68186 24352 56973 56973 710182 646849 63333 19268 17824 1444 29827 27589 2238 66483 55163 4671 6649 190 190 13816 13816 1578 1578 62583 38830 23753 7492 7492 38482 38482 27623 16974 10649 39579 39579 3258 3258 14849 14849 Indirect Fundraising Ex 6143 6143 Membership Fees 1406 1406 1251880 1031202 116519 104159 286713 306750 151496 118152 75000 1405 106091 38808 44482 67283 482691 568590 31101 32533 370 31471 32533 X 451220 536057 451220 536057 482691 568590 X 84643 194 X 0 0 0 X 840109 739261 1073338 887427 1225208 4765343 840109 739261 1073338 887427 1225208 4765343 4765343 4941 303 137 154 10384 15919 1201 1230 1356 1612 5399 4786661 423149 0.99550 0.99580 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 33741 7795 25946 37950 31013 6937 34400 34400 67283 Ice Golf Outing 21543 21543 450 1732 Annual Dinner-Legacy of Learning 134648 128064 6584 6585 4563 156191 149607 6584 6585 450 6295 13330 -6746 1 School supplies 3600 54739 Purchase price School supplies for students specific to grade level Part I, Line 2: Our Apples for Students community-wide program helps thousands of area students begin the school year with the necessary supplies they need to succeed.
