Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
The goals of Mission4Maureen are straightforward. We would like to be able to assist brain tumor patients who are experiencing a financial crisis with their most critical bills at the time of their application to the foundation.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Since there are comparitively few brain tumor organizations who directly help hardship patients, our strategies are to grow awareness of Mission4Maureen and the struggle of this patient population. We hope to continue to develop new fund raising activities and we hope to gain additional grant support from organizations, companies and private foundations.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
Our board of directors consist of individuals that are very familiar with the incredible toll that brain surgery, and subsequent treatment takes on patients and their families. This personal compassion and experience allows them to stay focused on the most important aspect of running a charity. The bottom line is helping patients. Since 2006, more than $900,000 in patient assistance has been awarded and over all these years Mission4Maureen has remained a good steward of donation dollars with an average of 80% of its spending being used to fulfill its mission of grants to assist patients.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
Mission4Maureen's motto came from Maureen herself stating that, "No one can do everything, but everyone can do something." Some donors give just $10 per month. Others give large amounts matched by their companies. All donations are appreciated and well used.
Our biggest goal this year (2016) is to reach the patient assistance total of ONE MILLION DOLLARS by year's end. To reach $1,000,000 in financial aid over the course of 10 years would be a huge milestone for our small grass roots organization and a wonderful tribute to our Maureen.
