Mission and programs · 2024

• Abortion Assistance - CAF operates a funding helpline where calls are received by a voicemail system and returned by volunteers and staff who help distribute financial assistance and resource referrals to callers. We receive roughly 400 calls a month and provide $350-$600 grants toward abortion procedures.CAF provided financial assistance for abortion care and practical support assistance to 2,623 callers in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025.

  Expenses $912,589 · Grants $111,160

• Reproductive Justice - CAF offered doula training sessions across the state to train community members able to offer emotional and practical resources to local callers. We collaborated with other local, regional, and national nonprofits to reassess our service delivery models and strengthen our programming at intersections of abortion care, economic justice, and other reproductive healthcare needs. CAF represented in conversations of overlapping scopes including queer healthcare and harm reduction.

  Expenses $99,253

• Community Outreach - CAF expanded programming and volunteer support into new areas of North Carolina and into South Carolina. This includes relationships with clinic escort groups, medical and law students at multiple universities, and healthcare workers in and outside of abortion clinics. CAF collaborated with local and national abortion rights and reproductive health organizations to present film screenings, discussion panels, and interactive sessions on demystifying abortion care.

  Expenses $94,610

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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.
