  • SCHOLARSHIPS AND AWARDS - SEE SCHEDULE OSCHOLARSHIPS AND AWARDS:SCHOLARSHIP FUNDING IS A VITAL PART OF THE FOUNDATION'S MISSION, LEVELING THE PLAYING FIELD BY MAKING SURE EDUCATION IS AVAILABLE TO ALL WHO SEEK IT. DESPITE THE COLLEGE'S BEST EFFORTS TO CONTAIN COSTS, EVEN WITH THE LOWEST TUITION IN OUR REGION, TUITION, FEES, TRANSPORTATION, AND EVEN SUSTENANCE ARE OBSTACLES FOR MANY STUDENTS WHO HAVE A PROFOUND AND COMPELLING NEED FOR ASSISTANCE. SCHOLARSHIPS HAVE A TRANSFORMATIONAL IMPACT, MOST OFTEN MAKING THE CRUCIAL DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MOVING AHEAD AND FALLING BEHIND. IN ADDITION TO IMPORTANT FINANCIAL BENEFITS, SCHOLARSHIPS BESTOW ON STUDENTS A VALUABLE SENSE OF RECOGNITION AND ACCOMPLISHMENT. SCHOLARSHIPS ARE AVAILABLE FOR INCOMING, CONTINUING, AND GRADUATING STUDENTS; EMERGENCY AID ASSISTS STUDENTS FACING UNFORESEEN PREDICAMENTS. THIS PAST YEAR, GIFTS FROM INDIVIDUALS, FOUNDATIONS, AND CORPORATIONS ENABLED THE FOUNDATION TO DISTRIBUTE $3,778,000 IN SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS, WHICH INCLUDES $202,000 IN EMERGENCY GRANT FUNDING FOR STUDENTS FACING HOUSING, FOOD AND TRANSPORTATION INSECURITY AND $145,000 IN SUPPORT FOR THE COLLEGE'S VIRGINIA MARX CHILDREN'S CENTER, AN AWARD-WINNING EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION PROGRAM. ANOTHER EXAMPLE IS THE VIKING ROADS (RESOURCES FOR OBTAINING ASSOCIATE DEGREES AND SUCCESS) PROGRAM, WHICH REMOVES IMPEDIMENTS TO GRADUATION BY PROVIDING TUITION SUPPORT, TRANSPORTATION FUNDING, BOOK STIPEND, AND MANDATORY COUNSELING. A RECENT STUDY PUBLISHED BY THE ACADEMIC RESEARCH GROUP MDRC DEMONSTRATED THAT STUDENTS PARTICIPATING IN VIKING ROADS GRADUATED AT A RATE 12% HIGHER THAN A CONTROL GROUP.

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.

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.
