Mission

Arts Impact engages educators, children, and youth from marginalized communities, especially BIPOC and Migratory families, in culturally grounded, arts integrated learning so that each student thrives academically, artistically, socially and emotionally.

Each tax year counts once: when a return was amended, only the latest return for that period is used below (superseded returns stay listed, greyed, under Finances).

People paid by the organization

3 people paid across every filing: current people first, then by total pay from this organization. Organizations counts every nonprofit each person appears on.

Highest-paid independent contractors

No independent contractors reported.

Who gave

Contributor names are not public for this form type.

Public charities filing Form 990 or 990-EZ report large donors on Schedule B, but the IRS withholds their names and addresses from public copies. Private foundations (990-PF) are different: their contributors are public.

Grants received from DAF sponsors and foundations

48 grants to this organization reported by other filers, $1,202,050 in all. Schedule I grants are matched by the EIN the grantor reported; 990-PF grants list no EIN, so those are matched by exact name and state. Grantor type: private foundation (990-PF), DAF sponsor (answered yes to maintaining donor-advised funds that year), or other public charity. Unusual is not the same as improper. Many of these patterns have ordinary explanations. Check the filing.

Where the money went

Every expense line on each return, biggest first: Form 990 Part IX (with its program, management and fundraising columns), 990-EZ Part I, or 990-PF Part I. Event marks lines the organization itself describes as events. “Events” in each summary adds those lines, conferences and meetings, and the direct costs of fundraising events. Unusual is not the same as improper. Many of these patterns have ordinary explanations. Check the filing.
