What Legwork for Lungs does
Mission
Legwork for Lungs hosts annual 5k races and mile walk events in the month of November to raise money for lung cancer research at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Members of the organization, college students, adults, and other volunteers, conduct the activity that is annually hosted in Basking Ridge, New Jersey, and potentially in other locations in New Jersey as well. The percentage of my time allocated to the activity is 40 percent for gathering sponsors, 30 percent for conducting the 5k event itself (including prepping before the event), 20 percent for working on graphics for social media and websites, and 10 percent for discussing plans and feedback with our team. The activity is funded by donations from local businesses that sponsor us and the general public. Our activity is solely for charitable purposes as we are an organization that supports another public charity (Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center)
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2024, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2024, 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 $933 to $734 (−21%).
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 LEGWORK FOR LUNGS’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 2 reported years ran a deficit.
Who funds it, year by year
Grant support over time, funder by funder — shade shows the grant size each year.
1 of 1 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of LEGWORK FOR LUNGS’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. 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.
Where its funders are
100% of LEGWORK FOR LUNGS'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. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $5 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. 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.
