Overview

Mission

We improve the quality of life and health outcomes of adolescents and young adults with cancer through programs that promote and strengthen connections between young adults and their communities of support.

What it reported doing in 2025

B-there provides tools and resources to strengthen communication and connection between AYAs with cancer and their support networks from diagnosis onward. In 2025 we distributed more than 2,800 print and digital Supporter Roadmaps across 21 states and delivered personalized cards of support and care packages to 272 patients at 9 hospitals. We enhanced program accessibility by updating our website to allow patients to request resources directly. We also conducted survivor and supporter focus groups to improve the Support Starter Kit program and developed new resources including a detailed support guide and workbook to expand impact in 2026.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
