01What it does

What Barbara a Colameco Cancer Transportation Fund Inc does

Mission

Each year patients are unable to make it to their appointments, whether it be for checkups, chemo or radiation, because of the expense of transportation. Our goal is to help those patients, in the greater philadelphia area and locally by giving 100% of the proceeds from our fund to these patients. The money is also used to pay co-pays, cab fair and to purchase massage chairs to make the patients more comfortable. This mission is close to our hearts and we hope to continue to save more lives in the future.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
