Overview

Mission

ReSpawn Foundation is making adaptive gaming to make it a standard in rehabilitation.

What it reported doing in 2025

In 2025, ReSpawn Foundation partnered with one hospital. We established a formal Memorandum of Understanding with partner hospital to deliver training and support to rehabilitation clinicians. We impacted around 50 people and worked with around 100 volunteers.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 99% 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 revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
