Overview

Mission

Cancer Support Services

What it reported doing in 2013

Organization provides a self-supported place where cancer patients, families and care givers can receive support and attend informational workshops, learn to manage stress, and be involved in social activities.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
