Form 990 for tax year 2024

Filed by PROJECT VOYCE.

This return was superseded by a later amendment. matched by us It is kept because history is preserved rather than replaced.

What the amendment changed

Compared with the latest return for 2024 , filed 22 October 2025. matched by us Only the return's totals, a 990-PF's accounting method and the names listed in Part VII (Part VIII on a 990-PF) are compared. We relate returns by organization, tax year and form, and order them by each return's own timestamp; the filer's own "amended return" checkbox is a separate fact.

Those are the same on the two returns, so the amendment changed something else.

Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Project VOYCE develops transformational leaders in underrepresented communities by training, employing, and organizing youth to address the root causes of inequity.

  • In 2024, Project VOYCE delivered youth-centered programming to Denver-area students focused on three key areas: leadership and civic engagement, healing justice training to help youth communicate their ideas effectively to stakeholders and community members, and collective action to advocate for and implement projects that center youth leadership and vision. Youth participants contributed directly to curriculum design and facilitation, increasing engagement, ownership, and relevance. Through initiatives such as the Transformational Youth Leadership Development Program, the Equitable Youth-Adult Partnership Initiative, and the youth-led Decidimos el Futuro convening, Project VOYCE reached over 100 young people with year-round leadership development, stipends, workshops, and employment opportunities.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. 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.
