The General Fund: Powering the Mission

The Engine Behind the Sanctuary

To guarantee that 100% of the public capital donated to our restricted care funds goes directly to the children and grieving families, Not Forgotten Children must maintain a completely separate, unrestricted account to keep the lights on.

The General Fund is the sole account authorized to clear the mundane but critical administrative, legal, and operational overhead required to keep our charity active and compliant.

What Your Capital Will Build With a lean annual target of $5,000, your contribution to the General Fund covers the essential architecture of our organization:

Digital Infrastructure: Funding our secure web hosting, domain maintenance, and real-time Givebutter campaign tracking software.
Legal Compliance: Covering the mandatory state charitable registry renewals (Illinois Form AG990-IL), corporate reporting fees, and corporate document cloud storage.
Operational Security: Purchasing the required general commercial liability and Directors & Officers (D&O) insurance to protect the organization and our partnering hospitals.

The Ultimate Transparency Metric

By funding the General Fund, you are the donor who makes our "Zero-Salary Guarantee" possible. You absorb the operational friction so that every other dollar raised can be exclusively devoted to the children.
