What they do
At Metro Detroit Sled Hockey Our Mission is to Provide The Opportunity for Any Disabled Athlete to Reach Their Full Potential On and Off The Ice. We Value Skill Development, Teamwork, Good Sportsmanship and Inclusivity. Our Goals Include Growing The Sport of Sled Hockey, Advocating for Appropriate Level of Play for All Players and Removing The Financial Barriers to Playing The Sport. Our Players Are All Ages and Skill Level From I Just Learned to Skate to Paralympians Disabled Athletes Have Less Discretionary Income Due to Their High Medical Costs (prosthesis, Wheelchairs, Supplies) and At The Same Time The Cost of Adaptive Sports Equipment is 10x More Than Regular Sports Equipment. These Two Factors Can Create A Large Barrier to Participation. Your Donations Are Critical to Removing That Barrier By Funding Ice Rental for Practice, Tournament Fees, Equipment, Hockey Sticks, Sled Maintenance and New Team Sleds to Be Used By New Players.

Money made simple
Ask these three easy questions
- Who did you help? Ask for a recent story or report that shows real results.
- What will my money do? Ask exactly what your gift will pay for.
- Is this really the charity? Give only through its official website or confirmed phone number.
Worth asking: Expenses exceeded revenue by $50,715 this year. Ask whether that was planned or caused by a one-time event.
Bottom line: Do not decide from a name, mission statement, or tax status alone. Look at where the money went, then ask what changed, who was helped, and what your gift will do. YouCanGiveBack does not endorse or grade organizations.
Financial picture
A plain-language look at the latest Form 990 figures available. These numbers help you ask better questions; they do not, by themselves, rate whether a charity is good or bad.
How each $100 of revenue was used
The large number compares each expense with revenue. The smaller number shows its share of total expenses.
Gray means reported revenue left after expenses for this filing year. It does not necessarily mean cash sitting in a bank account.
Has the pattern changed?
Colored bars = expense mix: how each year’s expenses were divided. Total expenses vs. revenue shows whether the charity spent less or more than it received. The current filing is first.
Money in and money out
