Overview
Mission
The Committee for Families with Sick Kids was organized and operated as a section 501(c)(4) social welfare organization to promote the common good and general welfare of families with seriously ill children by informing and educating the public regarding a specific ballot initiative affecting resources and policies relevant to those families.
What it reported doing in 2025
During 2025, the organization conducted limited issue advocacy activities related to a single ballot initiative appearing on the April 2025 ballot, including public communications intended to educate voters regarding the potential impact of the measure on families with sick children.
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. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
