The first 25 listed. 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.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

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

  • HELPING ADULTS WITH AUTISM PERFORM AND EXCEL CORP

    $81,025

    2024 In FY 2024, HAAPE paid Aspiritech for two separate cohorts that trained autistic adults in quality assurance. There were 16 graduates, of which 13 have accepted career positions. In addition, HAAPE paid to establish and maintain the Aspiritech Academy database as part of the "HAAPE Hub." This revolutionary digital platform is a joint effort with Aspiritech and will formulate and maintain a specific database designed to connect operating partners, employers, and jobseekers across the autism employment ecosystem. Additional payments to Aspiritech will cover two more training cohorts to take place in FY 2025, covering certain aspects of cybersecurity. We expect that at least 90% of those who successfully complete the courses will obtain appropriate and sustainable career opportunities. Finally, HAAPE provided seed funding ($25,000) for development of the 10-week Cybersecurity Academy for Autistic people. This development is completed, and a pilot cohort is underway.

  • HELPING ADULTS WITH AUTISM PERFORM AND EXCEL CORP

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 13 October 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.
