About TURN IT GOLD

Turn It Gold (EIN: 46-2319604) is a Houston-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit focused on raising awareness and funding for childhood cancer research and long-term survivorship. The organization uses a mix of online storytelling, community events, athletic partnerships ("Athletic Activism") and annual fundraising galas to mobilize businesses, schools, athletes and communities in support of pediatric cancer research.

Turn It Gold directs funds to research consortia and academic programs (including Children’s Oncology Group-related research and university research partners) and runs programs that engage collegiate and K–12 athletic programs to raise awareness and donations. Recent tax filings and the organization’s website show active fundraising and grantmaking activity through at least the 2023–2024 fiscal period.
