Mission

THE FOUNDATION HAS THREE PRIMARY EXEMPT PURPOSES: EDUCATION, TRAINING, AND CONSTITUTIONAL LEGAL ACTIVITY. THE EDUCATION IS CONDUCTED IN GENERAL VIA EMAIL UPDATES AND WITH GENERAL MEETINGS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC ONCE A MONTH. THE EMAILS ARE AVAILABLE TO THOSE THAT HAVE NOTIFIED THE FOUNDATION THAT THEY ARE INTERESTED IN RECEIVING THOSE UPDATES. THE TRAINING PROVIDED IS FOR GENERAL WEAPON INSTRUCTION, CCW CLASSROOM AND RANGE INSTRUCTION, HIGH SCHOOL TRAINING CO-OPERATION. LASTLY, THE FOUNDATION IS INVOLVED WITH CONSTITUTIONAL LEGAL ACTIVITY. THIS MEANS WE ARE INVOLVED WITH LEGAL CASES THAT EFFECT ALL AMERICANS. WE ARE PRESENTLY INVOLVED WITH ACTIVE AND SUPPORTING OTHER GROUPS WITH AMICUS BRIEFS.

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 Greyed filings are superseded by a later return for the same period and are left out everywhere else on this page.

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.
