2 other organizations in the IRS Business Master File list the same street address. matched by us

We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

Mission

INVEST TIME, RESOURCES, AND MONEY IN LOCAL PEOPLE AND BUSINESSES TO REVITALIZE DOWNTOWN MACON.

  • COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT FINANCIAL INSTITUTION (CDFI): NEWTOWN MACON (THROUGH ITS SUBSIDIARY NEWTOWN LOANS, LLC) HAS BEEN DESIGNATED BY THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY AS A CDFI. THE CDFI FACILITATES THE LARGER STRATEGY OF INCREASING DOWNTOWN RESIDENTS BY FUNDING LOFT DEVELOPMENT THROUGH THE REAL ESTATE LOAN FUND AND GROWING JOBS BY PROVIDING CAPITAL AND MENTORING TO ENTREPRENEURS. THE REAL ESTATE LOAN FUND WAS ESTABLISHED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE MACON- BIBB URBAN DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY AND MACON-BIBB COUNTY. WE USE BOND FUNDS IN VIABLE RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS TO CLOSE THE GAP BETWEEN SOURCES OF FUNDS (INCLUDING OWNER EQUITY, TRADITIONAL FINANCING AND HISTORIC TAX CREDITS) AND THE ACTUAL COST TO REHABILITATE OR BUILD REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENTS DOWNTOWN. AT THE END OF THE FISCAL YEAR, THE CFI HAD 13.7 MILLION OF LOANS IN SERVICE ON PROJECTS. IN TOTAL, CDFI'S REAL ESTATE LOANS PRODUCED PROJECTS WITH MARKET VALUES OF 147 MILLION, EXPECTED TO PRODUCE 378 RESIDENTIAL LOFTS AND REHABILITATE OVER 926,658 SQUARE FEET OF UNDERUTILIZED BUILDINGS. THE CDFI ALSO PROVIDES SUPPORT FOR ENTREPRENEURS. WE OFFER A VARIETY OF SERVICES INCLUDING SHEPHERDING APPLICANTS THROUGH THE PERMIT PROCESS, ONE- ON-ONE MENTORSHIP COUNSELING, AND ACCESS TO CAPITAL THROUGH LOANS, EQUITY INVESTMENTS AND JOINT VENTURES. OUR STAFF SERVED OVER 600 INDIVIDUAL ENTREPRENEURS DURING THE YEAR THROUGH A COMPREHENSIVE SET OF INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP TRAINING PROGRAMS. IN TOTAL BY THE END OF THE FISCAL YEAR, THE CDFI HAD CLOSED 9 BUSINESS LOANS, FOR A TOTAL OF APPROXIMATELY 671,000. THESE SERVICES ATTRACT BUSINESSES TO DOWNTOWN, VERIFIED BY A TOTAL OF 7 NET NEW BUSINESSES OPENING IN DOWNTOWN MACON DURING THE FISCAL YEAR.

  • THE OCMULGEE HERITAGE TRAIL (OHT) OHT CONTINUES TO BE ONE OF OUR MAIN FOCUSES AS A PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP. NEWTOWN MACON RUNS AN ADVISORY COMMITTEE TO PLAN AND MANAGE EXPANSION AND IMPROVEMENT OF THE TRAIL SYSTEM AND RAISE PRIVATE FUNDS TO ENABLE THESE IMPROVEMENTS THROUGH THE OHT CONSTRUCTION FUND. ONCE IMPROVEMENTS ARE COMPLETE, NEWTOWN TURNS THE IMPROVEMENTS OVER TO LOCAL GOVERNMENT TO RUN AS PUBLIC PARK SPACE IN PERPETUITY. THE COMMITTEE FINALIZED A NEW MASTER PLAN TO GUIDE THE NEXT TWENTY-FIVE YEARS OF TRAIL DEVELOPMENT.

  • Withheld by Nonprofiteer: this text may name a private individual.

    Expenses $355,821 · Revenue -$175,737

As filed on the 2023 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.

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. 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.
