Mission and programs · 2023

Mission

TO FUND RESEARCH, AND IMPROVE TREATMENTS FOR PEDIATRIC BRAIN CANCERS. DESPITE BEING THE DEADLIEST FORM OF CHILDHOOD CANCER, MANY STANDARD TREATMENTS HAVE REMAINED UNCHANGED FOR DECADES. WE'RE COMMITTED TO MAKING A DIFFERENCE FOR OUR CHILDREN.

Activities or mission (Part I)

TO FIGHT FOR BETTER TREATMENTS FOR PEDIATRIC BRAIN CANCERS.

  • OFFERS SMALL GRANTS TO FAMILIES FACING FINANCIAL STRUGGLES DUE TO CARING FOR A SUFFERING CHILD. THESE GRANTS ALLOW FAMILIES TO PRIORITIZE WHAT TRULY MATTERS, THE WELL-BEING OF THEIR CHILD, WITHOUT THE ADDED BURDEN OF FINANCIAL HARDSHIP.

    Expenses $162,503 · Grants $160,530

  • TO ADVANCE SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH AND CLINICAL TRIALS FOCUSED ON IMPROVING THE SURVIVAL RATES OF PEDIATRIC BRAIN CANCERS. THESE TUMORS POSE UNIQUE CHALLENGES DUE TO THEIR LOCATION WITHIN THE BRAIN, THE BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER HINDERING DRUG ENTRY, AND THEIR GROWTH CHARACTERISTICS. THE TREATMENTS PRIORITIZE PRESERVING HEALTHY BRAIN CELLS TO SAFEGUARD PATIENTS' COGNITIVE ABILITIES.

    Expenses $405,000 · Grants $405,000

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.
