Silver Dollar City Foundation

Community Outreach

Leadership and Coordination

Providing leadership and being a catalyst for local schools, churches, ministries and businesses to cooperate as a community in caring for kids is a major role of the Silver Dollar City Foundation. The Care For Kids program is a major cooperative effort coordinated by the Foundation.

Partnerships

Supporting and partnering with organizations meeting the needs of kids and families within the community is another role of the Foundation. Partnering with the national organization Love In The Name of Christ (Love INC), a local affiliate was launched in 2001 with a grant from the Silver Dollar City Foundation. The organization partners with area churches, ministries, agencies, individuals and business leaders to provide a bridge between those in need and those with a desire to help. Assistance is provided in areas such as transportation, financial planning, medical care access, marital and parenting classes, school readiness drives, holiday special needs and a drug court program.

Insight Ministries Outreach In The Ozarks Inc. is another program supported by the Foundation. A Christian-based counseling service, Insight Ministries provides psychological and emotional testing and counseling services to families with financial needs in Stone and Taney Counties.
