As the statistics indicate, there are children in our communities that need
a loving place to call home and need to have the liberty simply to be children.
Our mission and heart is to welcome these children into the family at Liberty
Youth Ranch. We know the Ranch is a BIG dream and will take determination,
persistence, vision and faith. Liberty Youth Ranch is supported by the financial
contributions of individuals, businesses, foundations, churches and organizations
that desire to help children. We need you to join us in building Liberty
Youth Ranch so that we might make a difference in our children and the world.
In the United States we posses only 4% of the world's population, but enjoy
65% of the world's wealth. As William J.H. Boetcker said, "Your greatness
is measured by your benevolence."
The following pages
detail the financial projections made for development of Liberty Youth
Ranch. Financial projections contained herein are forward-looking and
are provided as the founder's best estimates based upon all available
information at the time provided. It is expected that these projections
will change as plans are prepared, licenses and approvals obtained, and
build-out is accomplished.
Capital Projects
Phases & Campaign Total.
We are committed to financial stewardship and therefore will build Liberty
Youth Ranch as funds are raised and available. Each capital project cost
includes an endowment component, which is monies that will be invested.
Only the interest earned will be used to provide a permanent source of
operating income directly applied to the use and maintenance of the respective
capital project. It is our desire to build in three Capital
Project Phases. For example, we hope to acquire land and build two
children's homes in Phase I. We also hope to build two homes in Phases
II and III, for a total of 6 homes. We have presented how the annual budget
will increase with the addition of every 2 homes.
Operational Costs.
Even before Phase I commences, a significant investment of time and coordination
by the founder will be required. As a 501(c)(3), Liberty Youth
Ranch must ensure its proper formation under both Florida Corporate and
Federal Tax laws. Additionally, the President must obtain initial seed
capital for funding the administrative duties required to secure funding
for construction and operations of Phase I. Operational costs have been
divided into the following categories and show the level of annual operating
expenses at the increasing level of capacity to serve children.
