What Knowledge Is Cancers Kryptonite does
Mission
In the united states, approximately 10-20% of ovarian cancer and 6% of breast cancer diagnoses are caused by inheritable brca1 and brca2 mutations. Of those with a brca 1 or 2 mutation, there is a 17-44% risk of developing ovarian cancer and a 69-72% risk of developing breast cancer by age 80. Sadly, only 20% of eligible us women have undergone genetic testing. This severe under-utilization creates missed opportunities for early detection and prevention. Unfortunately, at this time, the healthcare system places little emphasis on prevention. Therefore, we feel it is important to empower, educate and encourage those touched by breast and ovarian cancer to take personal responsibility for their own health by seeking genetic counseling.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2022, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2022, 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 2024 to 2025, from $25k to $47k (+85%).
How it's funded, over time

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $85 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
