Overview

Mission

Our purpose at silas's duck foundation is to provide support to families who are dealing with childhood cancer. We aim to provide, unite, fund and generate efforts committed to the betterment, improvement of those families who are impacted by childhood cancer. We serve this purpose through partnerships and connections achieved online and directly within the community. Our goal is to establish support resources, financial assistance, scholarships and mental health programs for these families who have been impacted directly by pediatric cancers.

What it reported doing in 2025

This emergency fund provides financial assistance to newly diagnosed families facing childhood cancer. In the first month of treatment, parents often struggle with overwhelming medical schedules, leading to forgotten bills and essential service disruptions. To prevent this, we offer direct payments to service providers for critical expenses, ensuring stability during this difficult time. Families must apply, and funding is capped unless a dire need is demonstrated.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 85% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
