What Take Part Inc does
Mission
Our mission is to raise funds in order to assist physicians and researchers in finding therapies and cures for diseases that affect children, thus helping patients in between diagnosis and prognosis. We also seek to help provide resources that lead families to diagnosis and help them thrive once diagnosed.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Research: We provide funding to promising research that seeks to benefit pediatric rare diseases. We are currently providing research that seeks to benefit PYROXD-1 a rare form of muscular dystrophy that is affecting 20+ young people (and counting as new cases are discovered) across the world. There are over 30 million people with rare diseases and we plan to continue to pursue research that affects as many as we possibly can that start at childhood or birth. In addition, we are funding research for Gould's Syndrome.
$110,359 spent59% of program spendingResources:We provide resources for undiagnosedfamilies and families of kids with rare diseases in order to help the children thrive. Some of those resources include access to genetic testing, when the family is denied by insurance. We also provide a free online platform for parents of kids with rare diseases to tell their child's story and have all of their information in one place. These pages help those those care for the child (hospitals, doctors, nurses, teachers, therapists, babysitters, family members, friends) understand the child more full in order to better support and care for them and their families. Right now our platform has 20+ warriors with the possibility of holding thousands. We also tell the story of the diseases we are fundraising for through video in order to educate the public about rare diseases and the kids behind the disease.

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 $99k to $174k (+76%).
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.
87% of Take Part Inc’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (82% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2021 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 4 funders, grant income rose $10k → $13k.
5 of 7 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 96% 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 Take Part Inc’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.
How concentrated its funding is
Take Part Inc leans on a few funders — its largest provides 43% of grant income and the top three 87%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
96% 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 Take Part Inc.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2021 100% · 2022 50% · 2023 79% — diversifying over time.
“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.
Where its funders are
96% of Take Part Inc'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. Of the $6k that is directly attributable, 64% of it comes from Missouri funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $135k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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. 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.
