Mission and programs · 2023

• CITIZEN ASTRONAUT PROGRAM SPACE FOR HUMANITY'S GOAL IS LEVERAGING THE TRANSFORMATIONAL POWER OF THE OVERVIEW EFFECT TO ENACT POSITIVE CHANGE HERE ON EARTH. THE PERSPECTIVE ASTRONAUTS GAINED IN THE SPACEFLIGHT EXPERIENCE HAS SHAPED SOCIETY IN EXTRAORDINARY WAYS.

WE SPONSOR EXCEPTIONAL LEADERS TO JOIN THE WORLD'S FIRST CITIZEN ASTRONAUT PROGRAM AND THE APPLICATION TO OUR PROGRAM IS OPEN TO EVERYONE IN THE WORLD. OUR LEADERSHIP, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT, AND IMPACT PROGRAM (LCDI) PREPARES OUR CITIZEN ASTRONAUTS FOR THEIR SPACEFLIGHT, SUPPORTS THEM IN INTEGRATING THEIR FLIGHT EXPERIENCE, AND UPON THEIR RETURN, THEY ARE TRAINED IN COMMUNITY LEADERSHIP AND ADVOCACY WORK SO THEY KNOW HOW TO IMPLEMENT THE OVERVIEW PERSPECTIVE HERE ON EARTH.

• DIVERSIFYING & EXPANDING THE GLOBAL NETWORK SPACE FOR HUMANITY HEAVILY LEVERAGES OUR SOCIAL MEDIA PRESENCE, TO SHARE OUR MESSAGE OF INCLUSIVITY WITHIN SPACE EXPLORATION WITH ALL THOSE WHO ARE INTERESTED, AND PASSIONATE.

• INCLUSION COUNCIL + ALLIANCE NETWORK SPACE FOR HUMANITY HAS A STRONG COMMITMENT TO INCLUSIVITY FOR ALL HUMANITY. WE HAVE FORMED AN INCLUSION COUNCIL THAT CONSISTS OF A DIVERSE GROUP OF LEADERS WHOSE MAIN FOCUS IS TO ADVISE THE ORGANIZATION ON THE CITIZEN ASTRONAUT SELECTION AND RECRUITMENT PROCESS. THEY ALSO WORK TO INFORM US OF BEST PRACTICES IN EQUITY, INCLUSION, DIVERSITY, AND ACCESSIBILITY. AS THE ALLIANCE NETWORK CONTINUES TO FORM, WE ARE BRINGING ON MORE ASTRONAUTS, ADVISORS, FLIGHT PROVIDERS, AND MEDIA PARTNERS WHO SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF S4H'S PROGRAM.

On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
