What are the funding sources for WFC?
While WFC began as a totally charitably funded effort, relying on the community and family members for 100% of its budget, it now pursues multiple funding sources. Most of it residential service recipients qualify for Medicaid coverage of the most basic care and services needed. Other sources include support from state ESPDT (birth through age 21), First Steps (birth through age 3) funds, the KY Assistive Technology Services (KATS) Network, grants from sources such as the WHAS Crusade from Children and the William and Marilyn Young Foundation, and charitable gifts from private donors and organizations that conduct fund raisers on our behalf. All of these sources are needed to adequately meet the needs of those we serve.
