Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

The December 5th Fund's purpose is to provide families affected with cancer a strategically planned out day to strengthen family values, while also offering in-home maintenance services for the family such as housecleaning, minor home repairs, laundry, and lawn care regardless of race, ethnicity, or origin.

    Expenses $127,780

  • Helping Hands Support Plan. The Helping Hands Program is intended to be an extension of The December 5th Fund's Great Day Program. Though other organizations provide services similar to our Great Day program, we are the only organization in the Greater St. Louis Metropolitan area committed to providing on-going support connected to household maintenance. Our program is without restrictions based on the age or other demographics of the cancer patient. After initially providing only Great Day experiences, we learned that many of our families also have a need for on-going support and continuous care. From the onset of the illness, family caretakers are under significant strain to support their family member through the cancer treatment process while also maintaining a household and continuing employment. Sometimes the cancer patient is also a caregiver to their children as well. We want these families to have the much needed quality time together instead of worrying about the burdens of household chores. We believe The December 5th Fund accomplishes this through our continuous care support offered with the Helping Hands Support Plan. The Helping Hands Support Plan provides our families with 3 or 6 months of continuous care as they navigate the difficulties of cancer treatment. This care includes weekly meal prep services, weekly laundry services, housecleaning every 2 weeks, lawn care every 3 weeks, and childcare on an as-needed basis.

    Expenses $11,968

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.

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.

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.
