Outcomes and Cost
Outcomes: Changes in the lives of those served by a nonprofit. They can be caused by the nonprofit.
Costs: The money spent by a nonprofit and its partners and beneficiaries.
Impact: Outcome caused by a nonprofit relative to its cost.
Cost-effectiveness: A judgment as to whether the cost was a good use of resources to cause the outcome.
Outcome Metric
Increase in income for a patient with medical conditions
Outcome Data Source
Ratings are based on data the nonprofit itself collects on its work. We use the most recent year with sufficient data. Typically, this data allows us to calculate direct changes in participants' lives, such as increased income.
Outcome data collected during the program. The nonprofit publicly reports data on the dollar value of all financial assistance provided to patients, which we use to calculate the additional income received.
Method for Attributing Outcomes
We don't know if the observed changes were caused by the nonprofit's program or something else happening at the same time (e.g., a participant got a raise). To determine causation, we take the outcomes we observe and subtract an estimate of the outcomes that would have happened even without the program (i.e., counterfactual outcomes).
We estimate the dollar amount of financial assistance attributable to the nonprofit by comparing the financial assistance given by the nonprofit to the financial assistance that would have been provided in the absence of the nonprofit (the "counterfactual"). In this case, we estimate the counterfactual to be zero based on two assumptions. First, we assume there is functionally no upper limit to the amount of cash transfers that continue to be valuable to patients as they are far from reaching the point of diminishing marginal returns, such that aid provided by one nonprofit does not displace aid provided by another. Second, we assume that nonprofits work independently and do not coordinate the provision of aid to the same patient. As a result, all aid provided by the nonprofit to patients with medical conditions can be directly attributable to the nonprofit.
Cost Data Source
After estimating the program's outcomes, we need to determine how much it cost to achieve those outcomes. All monetary costs are counted, whether they are borne by a nonprofit service deliverer or by the nonprofit’s public and private partners.
Program cost data reported by the nonprofit. Partner and beneficiary costs reported by the nonprofit or estimated by Charity Navigator.
Cost Calculation
$76,882 program costs + $0 partner costs + $0 beneficiary costs = $76,882 total costs
Impact and Determination
We calculate impact, defined as the change in outcomes attributable to a program divided by the cost to achieve those outcomes.
Impact Calculation
$76,882 total costs / 75,524 of financial assistance provided = roughly $200 provides $200 in financial assistance to a patient in need.
Benchmark for Rating
Impact & Results scores of financial assistance to patients programs are based on income generated relative to cost. Programs receive an Impact & Results score of 100 if they increase income for a recipient by more than $1.50 for every $1 spent and a score of 75 if income increases by more than $0.85 for every $1 spent. If a nonprofit reports impact but doesn't meet the benchmark for cost-effectiveness, it earns a score of 50.
Determination
Highly cost-effective
Analysis Details
Analysis conducted in 2019 by ImpactMatters. An analyst searched the Form 990s, annual reports, audited financials and the website of the nonprofit to calculate impact and rate cost-effectiveness. A second analyst conducted quality control.

Story of Adaptability
The nonprofit has an opportunity to tell the story of how the organization adapted to tremendous external changes in the last year.
COVID-19 had a positive impact on our fundraising results for FYE 2020. Despite the loss of income generated from events and other challenges, 2020 was our second highest year in terms of revenues in our 17-year history. During the early days of the pandemic, the demand for food and shelter (via our Emergency Financial Assistance Program) intensified given the unprecedented circumstances striking hard the population we serve. In addition to fighting childhood cancer, most of the families served contracted the virous and/or experienced loss of income. By mid-April we started a campaign, “Together We Will Overcome COVID-19” which informed our donors and grantors the need for frontline rapid response funds. We promoted the campaign via emails to grantors, Newsletter e-blasts and a Facebook fundraiser on our Page. By the end of May the results of the campaign proved to be successful raising a total of $85,000. Added unexpected funding was provided by the Paycheck Protection Program. Also, later in the year we received multiple donations from a new funder who noticed the impact our programs had on those we serve. The private foundation’s donations added up to the largest gift we have ever received in a single year from a single donor. During 2020 we were able to replenish program funds so we could seamlessly continue serving the most vulnerable during the pandemic. 15% more families were served in 2020 (compared to the previous year) representing 440 individuals.
