How it makes and monitors grants (Schedule I, Part IV)
KidVantage grants essential goods for children, not cash, to local provider partners that assess the situation of a family and their needs. Representatives of partner agencies place and pick up orders on a weekly basis using our online ordering system. KidVantage values grants based on the value of the items distributed as recorded in our inventory system. All orders are signed for at the time of pick-up. Provider partners are verified tax-exempt organizations, including government agencies, schools, churches, for profits sponsoring government funded programs such as Early Head Start, and 501(c)(3) nonprofits. Through the online ordering and inventory system, we monitor types, frequency, and volume of orders; distribution to agencies, program and providers, and number of orders filled.
