Activities or mission (Part I)

EMILY GRIFFITH FOUNDATION EXISTS TO PROVIDE EDUCATIONAL AND CHARITABLE FUNDING FOR THE SUPPORT OF STUDENTS, FACULTY, STAFF, ALUMNI, AND PROGRAMS OF EMILY GRIFFITH TECHNICAL COLLEGE WHICH CANNOT BE FUNDED BY THE FINANCIAL RESOURCES OF THE COLLEGE.

PROGRAM SUPPORT INVESTMENTS STRENGTHEN THE COLLEGE'S ABILITY TO DELIVER HIGH-QUALITY CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION. THESE INVESTMENTS MAY INCLUDE FUNDING FOR INSTRUCTOR SALARIES, START-UP COSTS FOR NEW PROGRAMS OR INITIATIVES, AND CAPITAL SUPPORT FOR FACILITIES, EQUIPMENT, AND OTHER INFRASTRUCTURE THAT ENHANCE THE STUDENT LEARNING ENVIRONMENT. THE FOUNDATION ALSO ADMINISTERS THE STUDENT ESSENTIALS & EMERGENCIES FUND, WHICH PROVIDES FLEXIBLE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO HELP STUDENTS ADDRESS ESSENTIAL NON-TUITION EXPENSES THAT CAN IMPACT THEIR ABILITY TO STAY ENROLLED AND COMPLETE THEIR TRAINING. ELIGIBLE STUDENTS MAY APPLY FOR SUPPORT TO COVER URGENT OR ESSENTIAL NEEDS SUCH AS TRANSPORTATION, RENT, CHILDCARE, HEALTHCARE, BOOKS, TOOLS AND SUPPLIES, OR LICENSURE AND CERTIFICATION EXAM FEES REQUIRED FOR PROGRAM COMPLETION.

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.

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.
