Activities or mission (Part I)

The Ohio alliance of YMCA's foundation was created to support the great work of the Ohio alliance of YMCA's, as well as each of the 162 YMCA's in Ohio. The foundation is a nonprofit association that focuses on youth development opportunities, like YMCA's youth & government, and funds administration for statewide YMCA's initiatives.

Ohio YMCA Youth & GovernmentYouth development is a central pillar to the YMCA mission, and YMCA Youth & Government is a critical piece of that pillar. Youth & Government (YG) is a three-day learning conference in which students participate directly in a simulation of the democratic process. YG offers students the opportunity to learn about a wide variety of issues, develop critical thinking skills, and articulate their beliefs while engaging constructively with those who hold like and opposing views.

Expenses $570,431 · Revenue $610,885

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. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
