IRS Form 990

As a nonprofit organization that is exempt from federal taxation, we ensure donors’ money is spent as efficiently and effectively as possible.  The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Form 990 is an annual federal informational return that most tax-exempt charitable corporations are required to file. The information in the Form 990 is provided in accordance with IRS regulations.
CanCare currently has two interrelated organizations that file Form 990s:

  • CanCare, Inc. – Main organization headquartered in Houston, TX
  • CanCare Foundation – Foundation whose mission is supporting CanCare, Inc. financially
