Mission
HELPING HANDS OF CLEMSONS MISSION IS TO PROVIDE A SAFE AND NURTURING ENVIRONMENT, SHELTER AND BEDDING, AND THE ESSENTIAL NECESSITIES FOR THE SURVIVAL OF ABUSED AND NEGLECTED CHILDREN.
-
IN 1978, HELPING HANDS OF CLEMSON WAS ESTABLISHED BY PRESIDENT JEAN TULLI AND COFOUNDER, ELAINE CHISMAN. SIX YEARS LATER IN AUGUST OF 1984, THE SHELTER FIRST OPENED TO RECEIVE CHILDREN. AT THAT TIME, THE SHELTER WAS LICENSED TO HOLD A CAPACITY OF 16 CHILDREN. NOW, THE ORGANIZATION HAS GROWN TO HOUSE AN AVERAGE OF 40-45 CHILDREN. MOST OF THE CHILDREN COME FROM ANDERSON, OCONEE, AND PICKENS COUNTIES, BUT WE ARE ALSO LICENSED TO SERVE CHILDREN FROM ABBEVILLE, EDGEFIELD, GREENVILLE, GREENWOOD, LAURENS, MCCORMICK, NEWBERRY, AND SALUDA COUNTIES. ALL OF THE CHILDREN THAT ARE PLACED IN THE SHELTER ARE REFERRED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES. IN SOME CASES, THEY HAVE BEEN NEGLECTED, WHILE IN OTHER CASES, THEY HAVE BEEN SEXUALLY, PHYSICALLY, AND/OR EMOTIONALLY ABUSED. IN MILD CASES OF ABUSE AND NEGLECT, THE CHILDREN ARE ALLOWED TO RETURN TO THEIR OWN HOMES. OUR GOAL IS TO REUNITE AS MANY FAMILIES AS POSSIBLE.

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.

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.
What this page reflects
The registration facts above come from the IRS Business Master File published 13 October 2026 and read 1 November 2026, for every organization at once. Returns through tax year 2024, the newest we have parsed for this organization.
