Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION RESPONDS TO THE CHANGING NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY BY MAKING GRANTS TO LOCAL NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS, AWARDING SCHOLARSHIPS TO HELP LOCAL STUDENTS, WORKING TOGETHER WITH DONORS TO BUILD COMMUNITY ENDOWMENT AND PROVIDING LEADERSHIP ON KEY COMMUNITY ISSUES.

Activities or mission (Part I)

THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION CONNECTS PEOPLE WHO CARE WITH CAUSES THAT MATTER.

  • THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION IS A GRANTMAKING ORGANIZATION. APPROXIMATELY ONE-THIRD OF THE GRANTS AUTHORIZED IN 2024 WERE DIRECTED BY THE BOARD TOWARD STRATEGIC INITIATIVES AND COMMUNITY RESPONSIVE REQUESTS THAT ADDRESS VITAL COMMUNITY NEEDS IN LORAIN COUNTY AND TO RESPOND TO EMERGING OPPORTUNITIES IN A WIDE RANGE OF CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS IN LORAIN COUNTY. GRANTS AWARDED THROUGH A COMPETITIVE PROCESS IN 2024 SUPPORTED PROGRAMS ACROSS A DIVERSE IMPACT AREA, SUCH AS ANIMALS AND ENVIRONMENT, ARTS AND CULTURE, EDUCATION, HEALTH, HUMAN SERVICES, AND PUBLIC BENEFIT. THE REMAINING GRANTS AUTHORIZED IN 2024 WERE AS DESIGNATED TO THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION FROM DESIGNATED, DONOR ADVISED OR AGENCY FUNDS.

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here. A text marked withheld matched a screen for wording that may name a private individual, such as an honorific or "in memory of". Most of what it withholds names no one; it is withheld so that what does is never shown.

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. 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. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

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.
