-
Option Hopes program service for 2024 was providing education about the benefits of infant adoption to high school students in Louisiana primarily at public high schools through presentations in health classes and other classroom settings. Option Hope began giving these presentation in earnest in September of 2024. During 2024 Option Hope gave 145 presentations to 3,891 high school students in the following Louisiana parishes: Lafayette Iberia St. Mary Vermilion Tangipahoa and Jefferson. Option Hopes presenters use interactive presentations classroom activities and videos to educate about infant adoption the types of adoption available the differences between foster care and infant adoption and statistical data on pregnancy outcomes. The presentations are offered at no charge to schools whether public or private. Through pre-presentation and post-presentation quizzes Option Hope found that students learned significantly about adoption during our presentations.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

The four totals the IRS asks for on Part I of the Form 990, as filed. A dash means the figure was not present on the return — not that it was zero.
Grants made
No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.
Grants received
No itemized grant names this organization as a recipient. Only grants over $5,000 are itemized, and only by filers of the full Form 990.
Related organizations
From Schedule R Part II, where a filer lists the tax-exempt organizations it is related to by control. It does not record shared board members or money.

Other IRS files
Auto-Revocation List
Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.
Publication 78
Listed as of 11 November 2026, under deductibility PC.
These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
