What Chicago Coalition for Family Building does
Mission
To promote health and alleviate the mental and physical distress of individuals and couples diagnosed with infertility through education and financial assistance.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
We provide education and financial assistance to those struggling with infertility. Financial assistance is via grants and recipients are selected based on medical prognosis and financial need.
Financial assistance is provided to individuals for fertility treatment or adoption who demonstrate need showing their income under a specified amount. They submit medical information and each case is carefully reviewed and scored by two members of the medical advisory board (mab). Mab members are all board-certified reproductive endocrinologists who practice in chicago and the surrounding suburbs. Under "donated services grants" services are donated by health care providers (physicians, phamaceutical companies, third party agencies, nutritionists, and genetic testing companies) to the patients, and as such, no expense for physician fees is recorded. Under our "family building grants or "juf path to parenthood grant" we pay medical service providers or agencies directly for services provided to our grantees. 38 patients received these services in 2024. To date 118 babies have been born as the result of our work.

The organization over time
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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2017 to 2018, from $132k to $266k (+101%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
103% of CHICAGO COALITION FOR FAMILY BUILDING’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (83% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 7 funders, grant income rose $1k → $195k.

How concentrated its funding is
CHICAGO COALITION FOR FAMILY BUILDING leans on a few funders — its largest provides 74% of grant income and the top three 90%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
79% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund CHICAGO COALITION FOR FAMILY BUILDING.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 100% · 2019 63% · 2020 88% · 2021 97% · 2022 53% · 2023 68% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
29% of CHICAGO COALITION FOR FAMILY BUILDING's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 56% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
79% of CHICAGO COALITION FOR FAMILY BUILDING's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $191k that is directly attributable, 68% of it comes from Illinois funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $707k arriving through sponsors registered in 6 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
