Mission

THE CHRISTINE B. FOUNDATION (CBF) SUPPORTS THOSE FACING CANCER BY EXTENDING ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOOD, NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION, AND COMMUNITY CONNECTIONS ESSENTIAL TO THEIR STRENGTH AND COMFORT.

  • CBF'S CANCER NUTRITION SERVICES AND RELATED NOURISHING HOPE TRIAL ACTIVITIES REPRESENT THE ORGANIZATION'S LARGEST PROGRAMMATIC EXPENSE IN FY25. THIS PROGRAM PROVIDES VARIOUS PERSONALIZED SERVICES, INCLUDING HOSPITAL BASED PRODUCE, HOME-DELIEVERED MEDICALLY TAILORED GROCERY PACKAGES, AND ONCOLOGY DIETITIAN COUNSELING. THIS IS AVAILABLE AT NO COST TO INDIVIDUALS IN ACTIVE CANCER TREATMENT, RECOVERY, AND MEMBERS OF THEIR HOUSEHOLDS, ENSURING EQUITABLE ACCESS TO NUTRIENT-RICH FOOD REGARDLESS OF CANCER TYPE, AGE, INCOME LEVEL, GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION, OR RACE. DURING THE PROGRAM YEAR, CBF HAD 4,502 ENCOUNTERS WITH 670 PATIENTS, ACROSS 8 MAINE COUNTIES, REACHING 1,588 INDIVIDUALS OVERALL. EXPENSES WERE USED TO SOURCE, ASSEMBLE, AND DISTRIBUTE 2,745 GROCERY PACKAGES (EQUIVALENT TO 82,350 MEALS), 1,350 PRODUCE PACKAGES, AND 20 DIETITIAN COUNSELING SESSIONS. MORE THAN 100 VOLUNTEERS SUPPORTED SAFE, RELIABLE, AND COMPASSIONATE ASSEMBLY, HOSPITAL-BASED DISTRIBUTION, AND HOME DELIVERY SERVICES ACROSS 11,500 SQUARE MILES. THIS EXPENSE ALSO SUPPORTED THE ONGOING DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF CBF'S MULTI-YEAR NOURISHING HOPE TRIAL, WHICH EVALUATES HOW ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOOD AND DIETETIC COUNSELING IMPACTS HEALTH OUTCOMES AND THE SOCIAL, ECONOMIC, AND PHYSICAL WELL-BEING OF FAMILIES FACING CANCER. FY25 ACTIVITIES INCLUDED RESEARCH ADMINISTRATION, CONSULTING SERVICES, PROTOCOL DEVELOPMENT, AND COLLABORATION WITH RESEARCHERS AT THE YALE UNIVERISTY SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH IN PREPARATION FOR TRIAL ENROLLMENT. THE STUDY IS DESIGNED TO RECRUIT 100 CANCER PATIENTS WHO WILL PARTICIPATE IN ONE OF THREE INTERVENTION GROUPS INVOLVING MEDICALLY TAILORED GROCERY DELIVERY, DIETITIAN COUNSELING, OR USUAL CARE WITH DELAYED GROCERY SUPPORT.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 9 November 2026. The IRS publishes only each organization's most recent postcard, so earlier years are not shown. A 990-N carries no financial detail. The postcard also gives the principal officer's address, which is not shown here.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
