THIS DILEMMA IS COMPLICATED EVEN FURTHER SINCE MEDICAL INSURANCE COMPANIES CONTINUE TO REDUCE THEIR BENEFITS SUPPORTING MEDICAL THERAPIES FOR DISABLED CHILDREN. AS A RESULT, ONLY WEALTHY FAMILIES ARE TYPICALLY CAPABLE OF PURSUING SPECIALIZED PRIVATE SCHOOLING AND TREATMENT FOR THEIR CHILDREN. THE ERIN IS HOPE FOUNDATION, INC. IS DETERMINED TO PROVIDE THESE ESSENTIAL MEDICAL AND EDUCATIONAL SERVICES AT RATES THAT ALLOW ACCESSIBILITY FOR MANY FAMILIES.

THROUGH THE HIGH OUTCOMES ACHIEVED BY THE DELIVERY OF THESE SERVICES, WE HOPE TO EDUCATE PROFESSIONALS AND PARENTS ACROSS BOTH PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SETTINGS REGARDING THE REMARKABLE VALUE OF SPECIALIZED, INTENSIVE CLINICAL THERAPIES FOR CHILDREN WITH SERIOUS DIAGNOSES SUCH AS AUTISM, HEARING IMPAIRMENTS, APHASIA, APRAXIA, DOWNS SYNDROME, DYSLEXIA, CEREBRAL PALSY OR OTHER CONDITIONS THAT RESULT IN SEVERE LANGUAGE DISORDERS. Form 990, Part III, Line 4a FIRST ACCOMPLISHMENT In addition to the delivery of intensive, medical speech, occupational, physical and behavioral therapies to 137 pediatric patients with severe communicative, motor, behavioral, sensory and social disabilities, we also provided direct 1 to 1 specialized special educational instruction at remarkably reduced rates. Indeed, we charged our families less than the cost of weekly daycare for direct, daily 1 to1 pull-out or classroom instruction. Not only do deductibles and co-pays continue to present obstacles to treatment, the high costs of inflation have seriously challenged our young parents. Without significant charitable assistance, their children would simply be unable to attend. Families from every diverse racial, cultural, economic and religious demographic discover our special mission of outstanding services provided at affordable prices. In 2025, we served an increasing number of children with little or no ability to pay. In 2025, our Gifts for Erin and Matching Dollar scholarship gifts provided over 1,430,200 in charitable medical therapies and charitable special educational services. Form 990, Part III, Line 4a Additional Accomplishment In 2025, the Wheat State Falcons sponsored their annual car show benefiting Erin Is Hope. This 17th annual event was the most successful yet, raising over 23,500 for the Foundations Gifts for Erin scholarship fund. In fall 2025, the Lattner Family Foundation honored Erin Is Hope with a 75,000 grant for the scholarship fund. At Christmas, the Oxler family donated an unrestricted 50,000 gift for the school.
