The Foundation allows philanthropic funds from individual supporters and organizations to go directly to COG to fund its much needed research. In an era of rapid scientific discovery, this direct link allows COG researchers to respond quickly to new discoveries with the greatest potential to benefit children with cancer.The Children's Oncology Group has nearly 100 active clinical trials open at any given time. These trials include front-line treatment for many types of childhood cancers, studies aimed at determining the underlying biology of these diseases, and trials involving new and emerging treatments, supportive care, and survivorship. The Children's Oncology Group research has turned children's cancer from a virtually incurable disease 50 years ago to one with a combined 5-year survival rate of 80% today. Our goal is to cure all children and adolescents with cancer, reduce the short and long-term complications of cancer treatments, and determine the causes and find ways to prevent childhood cancer. 6034127 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 6 6 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 PA X Peter C Adamson 2155906359 3501 Civic Center Boulevard CTRB Philadelphia PA 19104 X Peter C Adamson MD 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Joseph Neglia MD MPH 0.50 X X 0 0 0 Susan Cohn MD 0.50 X X 0 0 0 Carola Arndt MD 0.50 X 0 0 0 Susan Blaney MD 0.50 X 0 0 0 Michael Borowitz MD 0.50 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 45000 6194856 6239856 Registration income 900099 16677 16677 Exhibition income 900099 6400 6400 23077 662 662 Miscellaneous income 900099 25 25 25 6263620 23077 0 687 6034127 6034127 2080 2080 599 599 425 425 1294 1294 4860 4860 66 66 975 975 State registration 1195 1195 Miscellaneous 350 350 6045971 6034127 11844 0 215162 435613 28333 215162 463946 29675 0 29675 X 215162 112611 321660 215162 434271 215162 463946 217649 1460 0 X 0 1 X 0 0 X 216647 6239856 6456503 216647 6239856 6456503 272975 6183528 1 662 663 25 25 6457191 23077 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 6263620 0 6263620 0 6263620 6045971 0 6045971 0 6045971 1 Children's Hospital of Philadelphia - Research Institute 3615 Civic Center Boulevard Philadelphia PA 19104 231352166 501(c)(3) 6034127 Support the research of the Children's Oncology Group (COG), which is the world's largest organization devoted exclusively to childhood and adolescent cancer research. 1 0 Procedure for Monitoring Grants in the U.S.: Part I, Line 2: Schedule I, Part I, Line 2: The COG Foundation works directly with the Children's Oncology Group in assuring that funds dispersed are utilized as intended. Oversight includes a work order issued to each institution receiving funds detailing the expected work to be performed with the funds in support of COG research. The COG Foundation receives regular reports from the COG on the performance of all sites involved with COG research. In addition, sites are monitored regularly to assure the quality of work being performed.

During the interim of a meeting, conference calls and email communications are utilized for any incidental concerns.
