Designed to connect volunteers to assist women with their pets when they are too ill from treatments or the cancer itself. Whether it be walking their dog, changing the kitty litter box or giving a pinch of food to their goldfish, we simply want to offer help. Sheree', our charitable organization's Inspiration and Honoree received this assistance through the kindness of others. Volunteers would come and walk her black lab Bud, who gave her the inspiration to get up every day to keep moving. And when she couldn't, she didn't want Bud to suffer and miss out on his love for walks and hiking. Since this is a volunteer program, there are very few costs and revenue that needs to be generated. The majority of the work will be via social media and networking connections to build our database of volunteers and connecting them to women that they need assistance. Our Transportation Assistance Program- Volunteer Driven from those who want to "Lend a Heartfelt Hand to Others". Designed to connect volunteers to assist women with transportation to and from their doctor appointments, chemotherapy treatments, lymphatic massages, radiation treatments and yes, even the Hospital's Emergency Room. There was a critical time that our Spirit in the Sky, Sheree', received this assistance. However, it was through humility and denial of a ride that she had to navigate while in pain to order an Uber. This experience was the inspiration for our Transportation Assistance Program. Since this is a volunteer program, there are very few costs and revenue that needs to be generated. The majority of the work will be via social media and networking connections to build our database of volunteers and connecting them to women that they need assistance.

Attn: Secretary PO Box 796 Garden Grove, CA 92842 Due to a series of personal hardships, I was unable to file the required forms in a timely matter. Specifically, within a short span of time, I experienced the loss of several family members; my father passed away in late of 2018, then my little sister in April 2022 and then my mother in late May 2023. The emotional and logistical challenges that arose during this period greatly impacted my ability to focus on administrative duties. As a result, the filing of Form 990 for 2023 was delayed. I truly appreciate your understanding and consideration during this difficult time. Sincerely, Roxanne Lum President Spirit in the Sky, Inc.
