Mission

THE ANDREW WEISHAR FOUNDATION WAS ORGANIZED FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROVIDING FINANCIAL RELIEF TO FAMILIES BATTLING CANCER.

  • The Organization disbursed $791,299 to beneficiaries in 2025.Beneficiaries and their families use these grants for a multitude of expenses including but not limited to: medical bills, transportation and travel costs, food, rent and mortgage payments, tuition, and whatever else they see fit to best help them during the most trying times of their lives.

    Expenses $861,167 · Grants $791,299

  • The volunteers of Weish4Ever are the lifeblood of the organization. Aside from helping run the fundraising events throughout the year and helping raise money to ensure the mission of Weish4Ever continues, the volunteers most importantly develop relationships with the beneficiaries. Each beneficiary is paired with one of the Weish4Ever volunteers when they are selected to be a beneficiary. The volunteers develop relationships with the beneficiaries and their families and often become great friends. It is more than just providing financial relief for beneficiaries and that is what the Weish4Ever volunteers do. From start to finish, they are on the journey with beneficiaries and provide support all along the way.

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.

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.
