Mission and programs · 2025

• In 2025, Lambda Archives distributed $5,500 to local LGBTQ+ Latinx students attending local community colleges through the Larry T. Baza Memorial Scholarship Fund. We also hosted approximately 100 people at the scholarship reception and pride kick-off month event, which continues to be a signature Lambda Archives tradition bringing together community members, students, and supporters each year.Our collections grew through 28 new accessions, encompassing donations of posters, photographs, textiles, books, and more. In a landmark year for digital preservation, 3,704 objects were digitized including the Vertez Burks collection scans and the historic Thimot-Rawnsley photograph albums making them accessible through our digital preservation software. Staff and volunteers also carefully deframed over 200 items for proper archival housing, and between 450 and 500 books were cataloged into our library collection.Lambda Archives served 13 researchers across 39 research appointments, welcoming scholars, community members, and two class visits from the University of San Diego and City College. Our archives were further supported by 8 archival interns and 17 volunteers, whose contributions were essential to the depth and breadth of our work this year.Lambda Archives curated and presented 3 exhibits and hosted 11 workshops and events in collaboration with community partners, including programming from our "Writing is Resistance" series, which featured panels, oral history recordings, and community conversations throughout the year.

Officers and directors · 2025

As listed in Part VII of the 2025 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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

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.
