• IN DECEMBER 2005 MARK'S TREASURE CHEST PROGRAM WAS ESTABLISHED. A TREASURE CHEST WAS BUILT AND DELIVERED TO THE CHILDREN'S MEMORIAL HOSPITAL (NOW LURIE CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL) ONCOLOGY AND HEMATOLOGY DEPARTMENT AT THE HOSPITAL. MARK'S CRITERIA WAS VERY SIMPLE, YOU HAD TO BE A CHILD IN THE HOSPITAL. THAT WAS THE ONLY CRITERIA NEEDED TO GET A TOY 365 DAYS A YEAR, ANYTIME OF THE DAY OR NIGHT. THAT WAS MARK'S WISH. THE PROGRAM WAS SO SUCCESSFUL THAT IN NOVEMBER 2006, THE TREASURE CHEST PROGRAM WAS ESTABLISHED AT NORTHWESTERN MEMORIAL HOSPITAL IN THE RADIATION ONCOLOGY DEPARTMENT SO THAT CHILDREN UNDERGOING RADIATION THERAPY ALWAYS HAD ACCESS TO A TOY. MARK'S TREASURE CHEST PROGRAM WAS ALSO ESTABLISHED AT PROVENA ST. JOSEPH MEDICAL CENTER ON THE PEDIATRICS FLOOR IN 2007.

• MAKE YOUR MARK ESTABLISHED THE MARK STAEHELY FAMILY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM TO HELP CHILDREN BATTLING PEDIATRIC CANCER AND THEIR FAMILIES IN THEIR GREATEST TIME OF NEED. MAKE YOUR MARK ASSISTS FAMILIES WITH GAS CARDS, FOOD CARDS, ETC... THE STAEHELY FAMILY KNEW FIRST HAND HOW DIFFICULT DAY TO DAY LIVING EXPENSES CAN BE WHEN YOUR CHILD IS FACING A LIFE THREATENING ILLNESS. IT IS OUR WISH THAT NO FAMILY BE FACED WITH THE CHOICE BETWEEN FOOD ON THEIR TABLE OR GAS FOR THEIR CAR TO DRIVE THEIR CHILD FOR THE MEDICAL CARE THEY NEED.

As filed on the 2024 return. A text marked withheld matched a screen for wording that may name a private individual, such as an honorific or "in memory of". Most of what it withholds names no one; it is withheld so that what does is never shown.

Listed in Part VII

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.
