What National Breast Cancer Coalition does
Mission
Nbcc's mission is "to end breast cancer through the power of action and advocacy." nbcc is made up of activists who set a programmatic and research agenda to end breast cancer and use the power of action and advocacy to fight the breast cancer status quo, overcome barriers to true progress in saving lives, and empower and train survivors and advocates to be leaders for this cause.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Public information & public policy programs - nbcc focuses its public policy advocacy on legislative priorities that are most likely to further the mission of ending breast cancer through the power of advocacy. Specific areas of focus include legislation and policies that will increase funding for breast cancer research; provide access to high quality health care and clinical trials; and expand the influence of breast cancer advocates everywhere breast cancer decisions are made. Nbcc selects its legislative priorities after extensive deliberation to ensure that scientific evidence is integrated into public policy with the goal of ending breast cancer.

The program described on its FY2024 Form 990. Program spending in total: $250,340.
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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2019 to 2020, from $29k to $50k (+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.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 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
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 10 funders to 12 funders, grant income rose $49k → $95k.
1 of 52 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 1% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $2.2M from one payer (the payer shares this organization's board, largest National Breast Cancer Coalition Fund). These are real filings, and they are not money NATIONAL BREAST CANCER COALITION raised.

“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 NATIONAL BREAST CANCER COALITION's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 31% 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
NATIONAL BREAST CANCER COALITION draws 100% of its grant income from funders outside Washington, D.C., across 12 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $15k 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.
