Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

OUR MISSION: TO CREATE AND SUPPORT A MEMORIAL THAT OPENS HEARTS, A MUSEUM THAT OPENS MINDS, EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS THAT OPEN EYES AND LEGACY SCHOLARSHIPS THAT OPEN DOORS. OUR VISION: ESTABLISHING A SANCTUARY OF HEALING AND A BEACON OF HOPE BY MEMORIALIZING THE LIVES TAKEN, THE LIVES SAVED, AND THE LIVES AFFECTED BY THE PULSE NIGHTCLUB TRAGEDY OF JUNE 12, 2016 - ENSURING PULSE'S LEGACY OF LOVE LIVES ON FOREVER.

Activities or mission (Part I)

TO CREATE AND SUPPORT A MEMORIAL THAT OPENS HEARTS, A MUSEUM THAT OPENS MINDS, EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS THAT OPEN EYES AND LEGACY SCHOLARSHIPS THAT OPEN DOORS.

  • NATIONAL PULSE MEMORIAL & MUSEUM: The National Pulse Memorial will be a place of sanctuary and commemoration. A safe, resting place for memories of the 49 Angels, and for Pulse and what it meant. The Pulse Museum will be a site of potential and transformation. Here public grief has a place to be transformed into personal meaning, and to inspire a society that warmly embraces and fiercely defends the full spectrum of our shared humanity. The Orlando Health Survivors Walk will be a pilgrimage of empathy and compassion. It offers moments of comfort, respite and human connection. Recently, the onePULSE Foundation Board of Trustees revisited the organization's original designs, evaluating the feasibility and costs of the project in a post-pandemic climate (i.e., escalated costs of construction, scarcity of materials, and a disruption to the global supply chain affecting capital projects worldwide). As a result, the Trustees have determined a new re-scaled version of the original plan to include, among other things, a museum space as well as a multi-purpose gathering place within the warehouse property located at 438 W Kaley Street in downtown Orlando. The Foundation is currently in the beginning stages of discussion about a new design that will lead to planning, design and development and as such, does not have updated information available at this time. Our fundraising model mirrors the efforts of similar memorial museums, including the 9/11 Memorial & Museum and the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum and includes a variety of development efforts ranging from individual donations, local, state and federal grants, as well as corporate and foundation gifts.

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.

Schedule J
