Specifically, Brady's Smile, Inc. will promote, improve, protect and sustain the health, emotional well-being and social development of children in need, including children suffering from illness or disability, children at risk and under served children. It is our goal to help in the following ways: 1) Help make life easier in the newborn and pediatric intensive care facilities for patients and their families; 2) Provide financial assistance to defray medical expenses; and 3) Establish and grant scholarships to educational institutions benefiting children in need. In 2024, Brady's Smile's programs serve patients mainly in pediatric and newborn Intensive Care Units ("ICU") in 33 pediatric hospitals across 16 states. Our Comfort Bags program provides basic essentials to caregivers and toys to babies and children who are in the ICU of children's hospitals. Our bags include items such as toiletries, a pen, paper, snacks, stuffed animals and toys. Our comfort bag program also includes special holiday bags as well. We provide holiday bags for Valentine's Day, Easter, Halloween and stockings for Christmas. During 2024, Brady's Smile distributed 1,704 comfort bags to families in the hospital. 22531 22531 This year is our ninth year in a partnership with Bridgeport Hospital to help provide toys and other services to their 'Toy Closet.' We consider this to be similar to our comfort bag program, but this program provides toys to babies in the NICU/PICU as needed throughout their stay, as well as inpatient children who complete various procedures during their stay. In 2024, we provided 640 toys/books for children/babies at Bridgeport Hospital in CT. 9849 9849 Our Meals program provides breakfast, lunch and/or dinner to children and their parents while in the hospital. We have also expanded to include free breakfast items, cups of coffee and delivery from restaurants. We found that many people appreciated free coffee and breakfast items. During 2024, Brady's Smile served 6,140 meals, cups of coffee or breakfast to people in the hospitals. 9352 9352 Our Brady Blankets program provides homemade fleece blankets to babies and children during their time in the hospital. During 2024, Brady's Smile distributed 1,151 blankets to children in the ICU. 6618 8852 This year is our third year of distributing "Teen Totes." This program is very similar to our Comfort Bag program but focuses on the needs of teens in the hospital. Each tote runs approximately $25-30 and includes items such as yoga mats, wireless ear buds, slime, journals, gel pens, candy, puzzles, make up and chapstick, cozy socks, soft 'balls' for them to throw in their rooms plus more. In 2024, we provided 260 Teen Totes to our partnering hospitals. 5268 5268 This year our Smiles in a Box program helped provide enhanced 'comfort bags' to children who were not in our partnering children's hospitals. This included helping 5 families out with items they needed to help assist their critically ill children. We distributed items like gas cards and holiday gifts and dinners to help families during this hardship. 1681 1696 Our PICU and NICU Wishlist program is where we purchase things the child life department or nurses are directly requesting for the smallest patients. This year the request included grief bags which included grief books, tissues, heart stones and more for families who lost their child at Yale-New Haven Children's Hospital. In 2024, we granted 146 wishes to our partnering children's hospitals. 1139 1139 58687 Anne Hinton President 25 0 0 0 Matthew Hinton Treasurer 3 0 0 0 Denise Flegal Board of Directors 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 CT Anne and Matthew Hinton 4 Gate Ridge Road Easton CT 06612 2036902004 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 30173 35253 56456 69787 48030 239699 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 30173 35253 56456 69787 48030 239699 75140 164559 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 239699 0.68652 0.62811 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Description;Amount^Insurance;590|Paypal and Venmo fees for donation transactions;483|Memberships and subscriptions;266|Business registration fees;100|Hospital Relationship gift for retirement;62|Event concession stand;163|Scissors for large event;579|Visa fees;15^Total;2258^ Form 990-EZ, Part II, Line 24 Description;EOY Amount^Undeposited funds;1200^Total;1200^ Form 990-EZ, Part II, Line 26 Description;EOY Amount^Outstanding credit card balance;5712^Total;5712^ Filed 8868; so this filing is due 11/15/25
