01What it does

What The Tumori Foundation does

Mission

The Tumori Foundation is dedicated to improving our understanding and treatment of cancers of the eye and the surrounding area. It supports and performs eye tumor research. There is also a small fund set up to support the care of indigent patients who do not have resources to pay for care themselves.

As stated on its FY2019 Form 990.

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.
