About Us

What makes us unique? It's really quite simple.

We knew when we started Tomorrow's Hope, the most important thing we had to do as a group of dedicated, passionate community members was to be accountable to the communities and sponsors who supported us.

In order to do that, we ask each recipient to sign a contract. In that contract, we require them to be accountable to us so we can be accountable to you. Here is an example of what we ask:

  • The funds they receive will be used solely for the betterment of public care, support, research and education for those affected by life-limiting illness.
  • Quarterly reports on how the dollars granted by Tomorrow's Hope are being used must be sent upon receipt of each quarterly installment. We look for these reports to tell us how the money is being used, how many people use the program or service, and what communities are being served.
  • The recipients also provide a display at our annual Walk Fest to talk to our participants about how their dollars are used.

With this information, we can tell you exactly:

  • Who receives your dollars.
  • How the dollars are used.
  • What communities are being served by the programs sponsored by Tomorrow's Hope.

Every fundraising dollar raised by Tomorrow’s Hope stays in Southern Wisconsin. Our Annual Report shows that an amazing 88% of each dollar raised goes back to our recipients! In fact, our representative from the UW Extension office tells us that for every dollar we grant locally, it multiplies by $1.82! That's because the health care leaders who receive our dollars can use that money to invest in programs or materials locally, pay salaries to employees who then take those dollars to grocery stores and restaurants. No matter how they use it, it stays local and strengthens the economic foundation of Southern Wisconsin.

We are proud as an organization to tell you we are accountable and can show you exactly where your dollars go, how they are used, and who they serve.

Tomorrow’s Hope grants dollars directly to the organizations that do the research or provide the care to your loved ones. It is this ‘direct deposit’ into our health care that we are so proud of.
