Mission

We believe in the transforming power of education. With Nelson Mandela, we believe that from personal development to nation-building to battling climate change, education is our strongest tool for making a better, more just world. Rwandan Educational Enrichment supports students and staff in underserved, mostly rural, Rwandan schools by contributing material resources to their programs and by encouraging them to fulfill personal dreams and ambitions. Beyond school campuses we foster and fund opportunities for individuals to learn new skills and to become more self-reliant financially. We are committed to helping Rwandans lead healthier lives by enhancing their formal academic education, promoting vocational and self-education, and fighting poverty in their communities.

Each tax year counts once: when a return was amended, only the latest return for that period is used below (superseded returns stay listed, greyed, under Finances).

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.

Finances

Newest first. Each filing: its name on one row, its figures on the row beneath. Greyed filings are superseded by a later return for the same period and are left out everywhere else on this page.

Funders of this organization

1 grantor reported grants to this organization, $95,000 in all, tax years 2019 to 2022. Exact: the grantor wrote this organization's EIN. Fuzzy: the grantor wrote only a name (foundations' 990-PF has no EIN field), matched to the same or a near-identical name in the same state; the name as filed is shown. From the latest return for each grantor and year, so amended returns aren't counted twice. CSV

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.
