What the amendment changed
Compared with the return it replaced , filed 24 July 2025. matched by us Only the return's totals, a 990-PF's accounting method and the names listed in Part VII (Part VIII on a 990-PF) are compared. We relate returns by organization, tax year and form, and order them by each return's own timestamp; the filer's own "amended return" checkbox is a separate fact.
Those are the same on the two returns, so the amendment changed something else.

CHILDREN'S FLIGHT OF HOPE (CFOH) PROVIDES AIR TRANSPORTATION TO SPECIALIZED CARE FOR CHILDREN IN NEED. THROUGH THE GENEROSITY OF SPONSORS, DONORS, AND PARTNERS, CFOH PROVIDES FLIGHTS FOR CHILDREN AND A PARENT OR GUARDIAN AS MANY TIMES AS NEEDED FOR THE DURATION OF THE HEALTHCARE JOURNEY. WHILE OUR ROOTS BEGAN WITH A PRIVATE FLIGHT MODEL, THE MAJORITY OF OUR CHILDREN TRAVEL VIA COMMERCIAL AIRLINES, ALLOWING US TO BETTER USE RESOURCES TO SERVE AS MANY CHILDREN AS POSSIBLE. WITHOUT CFOH MANY FAMILIES WOULD BE FORCED TO POSTPONE CARE, DRIVE THOUSANDS OF MILES, OR FORGO TREATMENT ALTOGETHER. WE BELIEVE THAT NEITHER DISTANCE NOR EXPENSE SHOULD PREVENT CHILDREN FROM RECEIVING LIFE SUSTAINING, LIFE ALTERING, OR LIFESAVING CARE. ALL CHILDREN SERVED BY CFOH EXPERIENCE IMPROVED ACCESS TO SPECIALIZED HEALTH CARE OTHERWISE NOT AVAILABLE IN THEIR LOCAL COMMUNITIES. THEY ARE TREATED BY THE BEST OF THE BEST AT NATIONALLY TOP RANKED HOSPITALS AND HEALTHCARE CENTERS. THE WORDS OF NEED AND GRATITUDE DRIVE THE CFOH COMMUNITY TO SUPPORT EVERY FAMILY THAT TURNS TO US. IN 2024 WE PROVIDED 2,759 FLIGHTS TO 668 CHILDREN AS OFTEN AS THEY NEED WHETHER EVERY FEW WEEKS OR JUST ONE TIME. OUR APPLICATION PROCESS VERIFIES MEDICAL AND FINANCIAL HARDSHIP WHICH MUST BE VERIFIED ANNUALLY TO ENSURE WE FULFILL OUR NONPROFIT COMMITMENT AND EFFECTIVELY AND EFFICIENTLY USE THE RESOURCES DONATED TO US THROUGH THE KINDNESS OF OTHERS.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
