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 and programs · 2024

• Annual Convention: Each May, MCAA hosts an annual symposium and Awards ceremony for our members and members of the United States Marine Corps, both active and reserve duty. The objective of the event is many-fold: To provide a means of reunion for members who have not seen each other in some time, a venue for current service personnel to discuss their upcoming priorities, the equipment and process needed for future operations, and to recognize those in service for exemplary performance in their execution of duties. The convention is 4 days long, is attended by some 900 people, and includes a variety of events, which draw a diverse set of attendees and members. Almost all of those that attend are currently serving in the Marine Corps, have served in the Marine Corps, or are closely affiliated with the Marine Corps through their employment or relationship to those that do serve. The week-long Symposium includes social events, both on site at the resident hotel, or in the local area. Some events relate directly to current events, to include the status of Marine Corps units, to longer term plans at the Air Wing or enterprise level. The Convention concludes with an awards banquet where 28 individual and military units are recognized for excellence in their performance of duties in the last Calendar Year.

• Scholarships & Donations: Every year, the Association gives a significant amount of revenue gained to active charities that are approved under IRS paragraph 501c3. To qualify for our philanthropy, charities must serve in one of a few areas: Academic scholarships for Marines or their families, financial assistance to Marine families in need, and support for wounded or disabled Marines, preferably in the aviation disciplines. In 2024, MCAA gave $284,863 in cash grants and $1,500 in non-cash support to charitable organizations.

• Squadron Support: The Association is organized under a National Office and also has 24 regional squadrons located throughout the 50 United States. Each squadron is comprised of Association members that live in the vicinity of the squadron and will hold authorized, independent events as part of the incentive to have the organized squadron. Squadrons vary in size from a dozen members to a few hundred. Each squadron operates within the governance, policies, and procedures of the National office, but is required their own set of governance documents to ensure compliance with National office policies and procedures.

• Publications & Outreach: The association reaches its members and prospective members through both printed and electronic means. Each year, the Association publishes four magazines for its members and attendees of the above-mentioned Convention. The association also uses electronic social media to advertise the Association and recruit membership, keep membership abreast of current Association events and plans for future events.

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.

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.
