2015 Financial Highlights
At The Michael J . Fox Foundation , we take our responsibility to our donors seriously , and we are grateful that you choose to support our mission to speed a cure for Parkinson ’ s .
SINCE WE OPENED OUR DOORS in 2000 , accountability , transparency and efficiency have been core values of our Foundation . We seek to maximize the generosity of our supporters and to accelerate high-impact science : 89 cents of every dollar we spend goes directly to research programs .
Though we have funded more than $ 600 million in research to date , we don ’ t measure success in dollars spent . We continue to push forward toward the day when we reach our ultimate goal of a cure , and we close our doors .
We can ’ t do it alone , and we thank you for every gift to help drive medical solutions to benefit patients and families . The 2015 financial highlights follow .
With this year ’ s annual report , we are moving to a digital version as part of our commitment to putting as many dollars toward research as possible . The online report , full audited financials and our most recent IRS Form 990s are available at michaeljfox . org / annualreport .
