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.
Grants on this return
-
Contribution to Project Every Child (PEC). PEC is a robust bank of blood and tissue samples from kids with cancer and it is opening the door to groundbreaking advances.
-
National Pediatric Cancer Foundation
$100,000
Funding to support the NPCF's Sunshine Project research initiatives. Over 40 leading children's hospitals across the United States have joined the Sunshine Project Consortium because they believe in a singular mission: to find more effective and less toxic treatments for childhood cancer. The Sunshine Project has a 15-year track record of conducting novel treatment trials for children whose cancers were not curable by standard treatments. NPCF now find themselves at a critical juncture: it is clear that childhood cancer is too complex to expect one new treatment to cure all patients, or even to cure all patients with certain cancer types. To overcome this hurdle, the Sunshine Project has launched a multipronged assault on childhood cancer from many angles.
-
$25,000
To fund research developing Volasertib, a drug for children and adolescents with cancer.
-
Donation by the Teen Board used in Dr Vik's Ampath lab. Ampath Kenya is a partnership between Moi University, Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital, the AMPATH Consortium of universities around the world led by Indiana University, and the Kenyan Government. Together, they work to build holistic, sustainable health in Kenya and around the world.
