Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

FILM2FUTURE (F2F) IS A NONPROFIT, PROFESSIONAL-LEVEL FILMMAKING PROGRAM PROVIDING A PIPELINE FOR UNDERSERVED LOS ANGELES YOUTH TO ACHIEVE CAREERS IN THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY THROUGH HANDS-ON TRAINING AND CAREER DEVELOPMENT SUPPORT, ALL AT ZERO COST TO STUDENTS.

Activities or mission (Part I)

FILM2FUTURE EMPOWERS UNDERSERVED LOS ANGELES HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS TO VALUE AND SHARE THEIR UNIQUE CREATIVE PERSPECTIVES. THROUGH THEIR FILMMAKING CURRICULUM, FILM2FUTURE PROVIDES THE NECESSARY SKILLS, TOOLS AND ALLIES FOR THEIR STUDENTS TO BEGIN COLLEGE OR AN ENTRY LEVEL ENTERTAINMENT POSITION WITH CONFIDENCE.

  • F2F'S INNOVATIVE PROGRAM EDUCATES STUDENTS ON MANY ASPECTS OF FILMMAKING, INCLUDING NARRATIVE FILMMAKING, ANIMATION, EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES, AND ADVERTISING. WHILE MANY F2F GRADUATES WANT TO PURSUE CAREERS AS WRITERS AND DIRECTORS, OUR PROGRAM IS UNIQUE AS IT ALSO STRESSES BELOW-THE-LINE CAREERS SUCH AS EDITORS, PRODUCTION DESIGNERS, CINEMATOGRAPHERS, ANIMATORS, STORYBOARD ARTISTS, ETC. F2F STUDENTS ARE WELL EQUIPPED TO FILL THESE JOBS AS THEY RECEIVE HANDS-ON PRODUCTION EXPERIENCE AS WELL AS GUIDANCE FROM INDUSTRY EXPERTS. F2F ATTRACTS HUNDREDS OF INDUSTRY EXPERTS WHO SHARE THEIR EXPERIENCES & ADVICE WITH STUDENTS. IN ADDITION TO THE KNOWLEDGE IMPARTED TO STUDENTS, F2F STUDENTS HAVE A VALUABLE OPPORTUNITY TO NETWORK WITH INDUSTRY EXPERTS. ADDITIONALLY, WE CONNECT OUR 18-YEAR-OLD STUDENTS WITH PAID INTERNSHIPS AND JOBS AT COMPANIES ACROSS THE ENTERTAINMENT AND MEDIA LANDSCAPE TO HELP LAUNCH THEIR CAREERS.

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.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 2 November 2026. The IRS publishes only each organization's most recent postcard, so earlier years are not shown. A 990-N carries no financial detail. The postcard also gives the principal officer's address, which is not shown here.

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

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.

What this page reflects

The registration facts above come from the IRS Business Master File published 9 November 2026 and read 9 November 2026, for every organization at once. Returns through tax year 2024, the newest we have parsed for this organization.
