Overview

Mission

Provide emotional support to seriously ill children in NY metropolitan area hospitals. This is done primarily through sponsoring end of the year hospital parties

What it reported doing in 2025

Maimonides Medical Center - funding of holiday parties for inpatient and cancer center for pediatric patients, gifts for the patients, art projects and entertainment

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 100% of its reported program spending out as grants.

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 and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
