Overview

Mission

We provide information & assistance to underrepresented uninsured & underinsured individuals whose family medical history suggests genetic testing might be helpful in identifying an increased risk of cancer due to a genetic mutation. We believe that everyone in need of germline genetic testing should have access including family members of individuals with a known mutation.

What it reported doing in 2024

In 2024 we continued to provide funding for genetic testing for individuals in need. We also launched our Family Gene Share educational video series to help educate about the importance of knowing of an inherited risk of cancer. Our videos were shared widely across numerous platforms including at health fairs medical conferences & via social media as were also shared directly with patients by hereditary cancer registries. Our social media reach in 2024 included 3k+ posts 10k+ followers & 2m+ views.

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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
