01What it does

What National Breast Cancer Foundation Inc does

Mission

Helping women now by providing help and inspiring hope to those affected by breast cancer through early detection, education, and support services.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Programs

  1. NBCF offers support services that help patients now and inspire hope to those affected by breast cancer. NBCF provides HOPE Kits, a tangible expression of hope, to comfort breast cancer patients in their time of need. 27,770 HOPE Kits and 174 Metastatic HOPE Kits were sent this year. NBCFs HOPE Kits are packed by volunteers and filled with thoughtful items known to soothe the side effects from treatments, such as chemotherapy and radiation. NBCF offers support groups for patients in need of psychosocial and emotional support before, during, and after breast cancer treatment. NBCF held 49 support groups throughout the year. NBCF facilitated 17 metastatic breast cancer retreats serving 150 metastatic patients (stage 4 breast cancer) and 79 caregivers. Continued on Schedule O.

  2. NBCF partners with medical facilities across the United States to provide screening, diagnostic, and patient navigation services. Partner medical facilities are committed to providing breast cancer patients with the care they need at each step of the journey - early detection education, diagnosis, and survivorship. Finding breast cancer early is critical to survival, but many patients cant afford the cost of screening or diagnostic tests. By providing these services through our network of medical partners and nonprofit organizations, NBCF helps provide equal access to early detection services for uninsured or underinsured patients. Patient navigators guide patients through and around the barriers of cost, fear, and misinformation in the complex cancer care system, delivering timely diagnosis, treatment, and support. Continued on Schedule O.

NBCF creates and delivers educational and awareness materials utilized by over 237,439,766 people. The About Breast Cancer section of NBCFs website, www.nbcf.org, is an online guide to understanding breast cancer and helps those diagnosed with breast cancer understand the disease. NBCF also partners with companies nationwide to strengthen their womens wellness programs by increasing use of basic screening benefits, educating employees about breast health and early detection and equipping employers how to support patients and survivors in the workplace. This year, NBCF presented 32 breast cancer awareness and women's health virtual and in-person presentations. Continued on Schedule O.

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 38 funders to 75 funders, grant income rose $413k → $12M.

26 of 234 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 15% 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 NATIONAL BREAST CANCER FOUNDATION INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 234 funders by total. 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.

How concentrated its funding is

NATIONAL BREAST CANCER FOUNDATION INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 76% of grant income and the top three 85%; half comes from just 1 funder.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

95% 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 NATIONAL BREAST CANCER FOUNDATION INC.

first grant+1y+2y+3y+4y+5y+6y

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.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $5.1M arriving through sponsors registered in 17 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.
