We are a 501(c)3 Nonprofit organization.
What does that mean?
A nonprofit organization (NPO) is a business entity organized for purposes other than generating profit for owners or shareholders, such as charitable, educational, or religious missions. These organizations are tax-exempt, must reinvest all earnings back into their mission, and are governed by a board of directors.
We are governed by a board of directors; we take in donations to resell to fund our mission. With those funds we give back to the Waushara County Communities in a few different ways:
1. Work with Salvation Army of Waushara County to help those who have encountered a natural disaster and have lost their homes and belongings.
2. Give scholarships to graduating high school seniors (this includes homeschoolers) that live in Waushara County planning to go on to college.
3. Give donations back to our fire departments, libraries, food pantries, and many other nonprofit organizations benefiting the Waushara County communities.
Our mission:
to fund social services, charitable causes, or community programs by selling donated goods, rather than generating profit for owners. The County Cupboard promotes sustainability, provide affordable goods, and reinvesting revenue back into local community.
