Mission

Capped is dedicated to providing primary and secondary cancer prevention and education and support services for the people of otero county and southern New Mexico.

What it reported doing in 2024

Capped conducts cancer awareness program presentations given to civic organizations and clubs including "vision of health- and "everything counts" presentations, reaching more than 700 people. Capped addresses crowds at educational luncheons and dinner meetings. Capped strummings (music therapy) and meditation classes help reduce clients' stress.

Capped spoke on radio shows and provided donated media commercials to promote cancer awareness programs in the walk-in cancer prevention and support center. Volunteers and staff were trained to provide personal consults with newly diagnosed and continuing cancer patients and/or their family members. Assistance is provided for research in the computer learning center/library. Cancer patients receive complimentary services in the capped center for integrative health care, including music and art therapy, medical chair massage, reike, zero gravity chairs, ionic footbaths, and more.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 97% 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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
