Overview

Mission

Empowering individuals and familes impacted by cancer through education and support services.

What it reported doing in 2025

The organization has created a foundation of services based on 3 core needs that wehave found within the community to support those impacted by cancer: detection, support and education. From this foundation, we provide the following to our clients: comfort items, self-help and support groups, counseling, educational resources and wellness services.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 60% 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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
