A N G E L F O U N DAT I O N 2 0 1 2 A N N U A L R E P O R T Letter From Our Founder Our Programs Dear Friend of Angel Foundation, Emergency Financial Assistance Looking back on 2012, I am amazed how far we have come since our founding just 12 short years ago. We’ve grown from me working solo at my kitchen table to the organization we are today: a professional staff of 12, governed by 17 community leaders, and a dedicated volunteer force of 400. Together with you, our valued supporters, we reached a milestone in 2012 by awarding $3 million in emergency financial assistance to adults with cancer and their families since 2001. I am grateful for and humbled by your continued support of Angel Foundation. Like the mosaic design, the families facing cancer who come to us at first sometimes feel shattered by their experiences. Because of you, we are able to offer help and hope through Emergency Financial Assistance and Facing Cancer Together. We provide the resources to help make these families whole … not the same as before, certainly, but beautiful in a new way, living with new strength, stability and resilience. Each of their stories is a piece of our full picture, shaping and guiding our work and our mission every day at Angel Foundation. There are more stories to be told, and there is more work to be done. The stage is now set for even greater success in the year ahead, with new milestones in sight. My sincere thanks to each and every one of you for your gifts. Each of you is making a difference in the lives of adults with cancer and their families.

Treatment costs, inability to work and possible job loss can lead to difficult choices — sometimes forcing a family to choose between paying the mortgage or pursuing treatment. Our response is immediate so that adults with cancer don’t have to make these choices. Angel Foundation provides emergency financial assistance to adults in active treatment for cancer. The funds pay for non-medical basic needs such as food, gas, utilities and rent or mortgage payments, easing worry, allowing recipients to reserve more energy for self care. Facing Cancer Together A parental cancer diagnosis can rattle a family’s foundation, resulting in fear, uncertainty and stress. Through our Facing Cancer Together program, parents with a cancer diagnosis and their children receive accurate, age-appropriate information about cancer and its effects on the family. Participants have the opportunity within their peer groups to ask questions, share fears and access support. We believe the family can be strengthened through the cancer experience and take these lessons far into the future. Through Facing Cancer Together, families receive the education and support needed to gain lasting skills that not only strengthen, but forge resilience in the whole family. “I know that I wouldn’t have been able to cope with the cancer of both my parents without this group. It has helped lift me out of the gloom that our family was in before we found out about Angel Foundation.” — Facing Cancer Together participant and teen mentor The Year in Review Our 2012 Highlights n Nearly $650,000 in emergency financial assistance was distributed to 1,300 adults with cancer and their families — an increase of 22 percent over the previous year. We celebrated reaching the $3 million milestone in providing emergency financial assistance since 2001. n Margie’s Fund, a small fund dedicated to providing emergency financial assistance up to $200 for extraordinary circumstances, provided nearly $50,000 to families — an all-time high. n The stage was set for a 2013 goal of providing nearly $1 million in emergency financial assistance to adults with cancer and their families. Plans assume an increase to $700 for each maximum grant as well as meeting the anticipated 20 percent increase in requests. n Angel Foundation staffing grew. The organization is now led by a passionate team of 12 professional staff alongside 17 committed board members and more than 400 dedicated volunteers. n More than 110 participants attended Kids Kamp in August — our largest group yet. As a direct result of the experience, 81 percent of the campers reported feeling more comfortable communicating with their family about cancer. n More than 2,200 donors provided special gifts during 2012. n Through the Teen Outreach program, teen photographers captured and shared their stories in images and words. The result: stirring images that revealed the impact of a parent’s cancer diagnosis through the eyes of a teenager. n Summer Experience, a new program of Angel Foundation, brought together 200 parents, caregivers and children for an evening of fun, laughter and water activities. n Family Topic Nights were introduced in 2012 through a series of educational evenings for families facing cancer. Angel Foundation staff and volunteers gathered on Target Field at a Twins game to mark providing $3 million in emergency financial assistance since 2001. n Education and Support Series went on the road. This vital program is now offered quarterly in St. Cloud through the valued partnership with Coborn Cancer Center. n Family Consult, the newest Facing Cancer Together program, was tested. The program provides an immediate response to an individual family’s needs based on four crisis points along the cancer continuum. A formal evaluation is now under way; results will shape the formal launch. At Angels & Divas, Deb was among the models who had makeup done by Juut. “Angel Foundation is truly amazing. You have not only helped us financially, but emotionally. Angel Foundation loved my son during Kids Kamp when I was fresh from my mastectomy. You have embraced us like a member of a family. Thanks for all you do.” —Kids Kamp parent 2012 ANNUAL REPORT Angel Foundation 3 Appreciation Corporate and Community Organizations *Asterisks denote community fundraisers $50,000+ *Angel’s Attic Gamorsa Stiftung Susan G.

These contributions totaled more than $35,000 and were critical to the delivery of our programs. In the interest of conserving our financial and environmental resources, their names do not appear in this annual report. We also want to thank all who designate Angel Foundation in their employer’s United Way campaign and other federated giving campaigns. In addition, we are grateful to all who attended events or purchased auction items at one of our events and to the multiple anonymous givers who collectively donated over $35,000 in 2012. Each gift is important and crucial to our organization’s ability to provide help when cancer strikes. We make every effort to acknowledge our donors. Please accept our sincerest apology and contact us if your name was inadvertently omitted. Your gifts truly make a difference. Ken Askew John Austin and Jim Sullivan W.
