What Live Like Goose does
Mission
Charity foundation providing education and direct services in grief and trauma recovery to individuals, groups and institutions. We provided free services to two high schools, one in San Jose, CA helping to create a wellness program for teachers with the school social worker. The other high school was Bret Harte HS in Angels Camp, CA where we provided mindfulness education and practice as a restorative justice alternative to detention. We also worked with the Richmond California Police Activities League providing grief and trauma recovery for their at-risk youth juvenile justice diversion program as well as education for the California Police Activities League with Trauma-Informed training.
As stated on its FY2019 Form 990-EZ.
Program
Live Like Goose provided mindfulness training and education to at-risk youth as a restorative justice alternative to punitive detention at two high schools Bret Harte and Vallecito in Angels Camp, CA monthly to about a dozen youth over a couple of hours at a time. The total time volunteered was about 50 hours including travel.
The first program described on its most recent Form 990-EZ.
Who funds it, year by year
Grant support over time, funder by funder — shade shows the grant size each year.
1 of 1 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of Live Like Goose’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
Where its funders are
100% of Live Like Goose's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $6k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
