Mission and programs · 2024

• THE ORGANIZATION HOSTS THE ALLSTATE SUGAR BOWL, AN ANNUAL COLLEGIATE FOOTBALL POST-SEASON BOWL GAME. THE ALLSTATE SUGAR BOWL IS ONE OF THE OLDEST BOWL GAMES IN THE COUNTRY, HOSTING ITS 91ST ANNUAL COLLEIGIATE BOWL GAME ON JANUARY 2, 2025. THE GAME WAS UNEXPECTEDLY DELAYED BY ONE DAY DUE TO A TERRORIST ATTACK IN NEW ORLEANS ON JANUARY 1, 2025. DUE TO THIS INCIDENT, THE USUAL ECONOMIC IMPACT SURVEYS WERE NOT ABLE TO BE COMPLETED. HOWEVER, BASED ON HISTORICAL MEASURES, IT IS ESTIMATED THAT APPROXIMATELY 70% OF THE ATTENDEES OF THE NEAR SELLOUT WERE FROM OUTSIDE THE GREATER NEW ORLEANS METROPOLITAN AREA.

  Expenses $20,970,702 · Grants $11,500,000 · Revenue $7,183,019

• THE ORGANIZATION ANNUALLY SPONSORS 25+ AMATEUR SPORTING AND RECOGNITION EVENTS IN LOUISIANA AND AROUND THE GREATER NEW ORLEANS METROPOLITAN AREA. TO PROMOTE TOURISM AND AMATEUR SPORTS IN THE AREA, THE SUGAR BOWL SUPPORTED STATE AND LOCAL ASSOCIATIONS FOR PREP FOOTBALL, VOLLEYBALL, GOLF, REGATTA, LACROSSE, SOCCER, TENNIS, AND SWIMMING. IN ADDITION, THE ORGANIZATION SPONSORS THE MANNING QUARTERBACK AWARD, THE EDDIE ROBINSON COACH OF THE YEAR AWARD, THE NEW ORLEANS SPORTS HALL OF FAME, AND THE LOCAL CHAPTER OF THE NATIONAL FOOTBALL FOUNDATION. AS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED, THE USUAL ECONOMIC IMPACT SURVEYS WERE NOT ABLE TO BE COMPLETED DUE TO THE TERRORIST ATTACK, HOWEVER, BASED ON HISTORICAL MEASURES, THE SUM TOTAL OF THE ECONOMIC IMPACT FOR ALL SUGAR BOWL ACTIVITIES IS ESTIMATED TO BE APPROXIMATELY (CONTINUED ON SCHEDULE O) $200 MILLION IN 2024-2025. THIS WOULD INCLUDE APPROXIMATELY $20 MILLION IN DIRECT TAX REVENUE FOR THE CITY AND STATE.

  Expenses $1,631,693 · Grants $1,118,380

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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. 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.
