As a responsible member of the community, the Cancer Research Foundation believes in accountability. We think the more you know about our trustworthy stewardship of funds, the more willing you will be to invest in the future through the Cancer Research Foundation.

Every year, the Cancer Research Foundation files a report with the Internal Revenue Service, IRS Form 990 (Return of Organizations Exempt from Income Tax). This report is available for public inspection in our office. We also make it available by mail, at a nominal cost. Cancer Research Foundation financial records are audited annually by Grant Thornton. Their report is reprinted in its entirety and included each year in one of our newsletters.

The Cancer Research Foundation is an Illinois 501 (C) (3) not for profit corporation, operating in Chicago. Our mission is to help find the cures for cancer through research.We welcome memorial contributions and gifts in honor of special celebrations. Contributions are deductible to the full extent allowed by law.
