How to Donate
Established in 1987, the Chileda Foundation is an independent board that consists
primarily of financial experts, healthcare providers, social service professionals
and educators. It is charged with determining how charitable donations are appropriated.
The money that is contributed to Chileda by private individuals and corporate entities
directly support the costs associated with care, education and treatment. Money
raised through organized fundraisers such as the La Crosse Chileda Classic road
race, the Chileda Women's Board Fish Boil and the Chileda Women's Board Wine Tasting
and Silent Auction is used to subsidize major out-of-pocket expenses that are determined
by the Foundation. Transport vans, exercise equipment and computers are recent examples.
It should be noted that staff salaries and benefits are funded solely by enrollment
fees.
The Chileda Foundation also helps us manage our fundraising efforts and maximize
our return on investment for each dollar we receive. In turn, the money we earn
is used for operating expenses and educational materials.
