At Higher Ground 87 cents on each donated dollar

goes to support the critical programs that changed the lives of nearly 700 participants in fiscal year 2017-2018.

Thanks to our donors, we were able to log a record number of nearly 25,000 program hours.

There are hundreds more on our waiting lists.

Higher Ground has a 4-star rating, the highest, on Charity Navigator.

We have a platinum rating, also the highest, on Guidestar.

These highly-regarded, top-tier resources objectively evaluate a nonprofit’s financial

health, impact, transparency, and accountability.

It is important to us to provide you with the trust and assurance that your dollars go exactly where

you need and want them to go.

Make next year magical for the veterans, children, and adults with injuries and

disabilities who deserve to find their sense of belonging and confidence.

We are dependent upon, and most thankful for, your gracious generosity. We appreciate your

support, every dollar makes a difference.

Thank you.
