What Childhood Cancer Coalition does
Mission
To help families facing childhood cancer by providing emotional and practical support, education, and advocacy, guiding them throughout treatment and beyond with insights from those who have been there before.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Family support: our family support program reached significant milestones, aiding 484 families in their childhood cancer journey while supporting 410 cancer survivors and 79 families grieving the loss of their child. In addition to support groups geared to survivors and siblings as well as parents, program staff offered a platform for shared experiences and coping strategies, spearheaded by a full-time and part-time team providing support 365 days a year in the hospital (inpatient and clinic), assisting children and parents with daily compassionate presence. Our birthday outreach provided joy to stressed families by sending over 700 birthday cards to childhood cancer patients, survivors, and siblings.
$496,021 spent74% of program spendingEmergency funds: recognizing the financial burdens that often accompany childhood cancer, our emergency fund directly impacted families in need. This fund served as a lifeline, providing direct financial support to families facing unexpected challenges. Whether assisting with medical bills, transportation costs, or essential living expenses, our emergency fund ensured that families could focus on their child's well-being without the added stress of financial strain. Energy assistance grants were awarded to 73 families, while 98 families received emergency funds for various critical expenses.

Memorable gatherings were organized that allowed families with similar medical experiences to connect, share their struggles and moments of joy, and forge lasting friendships. These events, including holiday celebrations and themed parties, offered a respite from the challenges families face. By prioritizing the well-being of childhood cancer patients and their families, we have created a meaningful impact on the lives of those facing adversity, fostering a community of strength, resilience, and shared support.

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 2022 to 2023, from $488k to $695k (+43%).
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.
108% of CHILDHOOD CANCER COALITION’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (82% for the typical peer).

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
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 8 funders, grant income fell $85k → $50k.
8 of 23 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 22% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

How concentrated its funding is
CHILDHOOD CANCER COALITION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 31% of grant income and the top three 66%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
88% 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 CHILDHOOD CANCER COALITION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 85% · 2018 74% · 2019 91% · 2020 74% · 2021 44% · 2022 59% · 2023 30% — 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
33% of CHILDHOOD CANCER COALITION's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 61% 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
81% of CHILDHOOD CANCER COALITION's grant income comes from Washington funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $104k 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.
