Joshua Center Funding
The Joshua Center began in 1996 through the support of parents of children with Tourette Syndrome.
The Joshua Center programs and services are funded through the following:
Annual Fall Fundraiser: Sponsored by the Kansas City Businessmen’s Club, the
Joshua Center is grateful to be the beneficiary of this event. Activities
include a buffet, dancing, and silent and live auctions.
Circle of Friends: We invite you to join the Joshua Center Circle of Friends.
Your support, at any level, will help us continue to provide the programs and
services that all children with neurological disorders need to be everything
they can be. Join the Joshua Center Circle of Friends and help pave the way to
brighter futures for children with these neurological disorders.
Annual Bowl-A-Thon: Children and families with Tourette Syndrome and their
associated disorders attend the Bowl-A-Thon the last Saturday in January. The
general public is encouraged to form a team and bowl. Corporate sponsorship is
available.
United Way support through Community Health Charities: Individuals are
encouraged to support the Joshua Center through their United Way pledge
utilizing the donor choice option.
Individual/Corporate Donations: The Joshua Center depends on individual and
corporate donations to support our wonderful programs. We greatly appreciate
this community support.
Grants: The Joshua Center is grateful for the wonderful support from foundations
in the Kansas City community.
Programs: Programs include Social Skills and the Annual American Camping
Association Camp at Rotary Youth Camp.
Publications: All proceeds from books written by the Founders, Becky Ottinger
and Jack Southwick, benefit the Joshua Center.
