KinderUSA
KinderUSA is an acronym for Kids In Need of Development, Education & R “Kinder” is the German word for “children;” however, many of our donors prefer to pronounce “kinder” as in: gentler, humane, and warm-natured, all of which we are! However you say our name, the goal of our work is the same: for the children.
We exist for the specific purpose of coming to the aid of children in conflict or natural disasters, regardless of ethnicity or religious belief. KinderUSA accomplishes this mission through the initiation of health, educational, and rehabilitation programs for children and their families.
KinderUSA strives to make the best use of every dollar, ensuring that no more than 18% of every donation goes toward administrative and logistical costs. This is the maximum allowable as stipulated in our by-laws, and our projects frequently utilize a much lower percentage, coming in at closer to 10%. We take our responsibility to the children very seriously and strive towards maximum efficiency in managing the gifts entrusted to us on their behalf.
No, we are an independent, humanitarian non-governmental organization concerned with alleviating ALL children’s suffering, regardless of ethnicity or religious beliefs.
As of January 2003, KinderUSA is recognized as an exempt organization under Section 501(c)3 and officially registered in every state in the United States. All financial documentation is available for public inspection on our website under “Financials”. Our Annual Reports are also available for review.
