RPM also helps artists give in response in times of humanitarian disasters. This program expenses includes significant grants made to other US-based 501(c)(3) organizations. 263508 ENGAGEMENT & CAPACITY BUILDING: Cultural leaders may look and act different than a policy expert, grassroots organizer, or think tank fellow, but they similarly need investing in their capacity to be allies to social change movements. RPM does this through retreats and workshops, and conference calls; communications strategies, urgent actions and sample content for social and digital channels, how-to and D.I.Y. guides on activism and philanthropy; and hundreds of hours of one-on-one conversations with our staff. 52557 RESEARCH: There is growing recognition in the progressive, environmental, and social justice movements of the importance of cultural change. RPM is a leader in the field of cultural organizing and strategy work through our programs and our methods of measurements. In 2015, RPM fiscally sponsored the writing of #PopJustice, a series of six reports intended for funders, advocates, and entertainment industry professionals interested in the promise and potential of popular culture as an agent of change. 732899 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true true false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 4 0 true 5 true false false false false false false true true false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 9 9 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true false false false CA X The Organization 5025008082 786 S Shelby Street Louisville KY 40203 Michael Skolnik Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Keri Smith-Esquia Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kelly Curtis Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Bertis Downs Esq Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kathy Kane Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Alexis Mc Gill Johnson Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Tim Quirk Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ian Rogers Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jessica George CEO 40.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Erin Potts Exec Director 40.00 0.00 X 69918 0 0 69918 0 false false false 0 333715 333715 Program services 379657 379657 379657 69 69 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Miscellaneous 4724 4724 4724 718165 384450 458168 458168 0 0 0 69918 52395 6627 10896 0 175243 131322 16609 27312 0 9500 7180 919 1401 21701 16276 2029 3396 0 0 0 0 0 0 40000 20476 18908 616 2191 550 1641 206 22 75 109 5935 4566 555 814 0 7213 5905 644 664 20662 19070 267 1325 0 0 0 0 0 6335 3217 2496 622 Meals & Entertainment 7393 7047 12 334 Event expense 4258 4258 Professional development 3320 1903 796 621 Miscellaneous 2120 444 1316 360 100 100 834263 732899 51253 50111 31968 105886 535127 217801 108421 0 0 0 0 0 1000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 568095 432108 23028 3139 23028 3139 X 82222 23949 462845 405020 545067 428969 568095 432108 -116098 X true X true X true false X 776263 964851 386709 416571 333715 2878109 0 0 776263 964851 386709 416571 333715 2878109 339935 2538174 595 938 739 231 69 2572 0 1765 28494 810 1270 4724 37063 2917744 1133004 0.86990 0.93980 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED X 718165 718165 718165 834263 834263 834263 Part X : FIN48 Footnote The Organization is exempt from federal and state income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, and Section 23701(d) of the California Revenue and Taxation Code, respectively.
