What J Foundation Inc does
Mission
The j foundation was formed to help children who have been diagnosed with a terminal illness. The foundation gifts amounts to pay for bills not covered by insurance that the child's family may not have the means to pay. During this time, when both child and family are emotionally, physically and financially drained, the foundation works to ease their worries.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.
Program
Gift monies to pay for bills not covered by insurance for families with children who are diagnosed with a terminal illness. Funeral costs, counseling and other personal costs.

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 at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $99k to $171k (+72%).
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.
100% of J Foundation Inc’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (95% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 6 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.
