How is Cunningham funded?
Approximately 90 percent of the actual cost of caring for our children and youth is covered by reimbursements for services from referring agencies. The other 10 percent (over $900,000 annually) comes from income from our endowment and other private charitable support. Contributions from private sources help bridge the gap between referring agency reimbursements and the actual costs of caring for, educating and treating a child.Charitable gifts made to the Cunningham Children’s Home Foundation support all programs at Cunningham, including residential care, community group homes, therapeutic foster care, pregnant and parenting teen program, independent living, the Gerber School and the CIRCLE Academy Day Treatment School.
