Mission

SERVE AS A CONNECTION FOR LATINO STUDENTS AND FAMILIES FOR ACADEMIC SUCCESS, WELL-BEING AND INCREASED INTEGRATION INTO THE DAYTON COMMUNITY

  • TUTORING AND EDUCATION SERVICES - We provide an after school program for Latino children in 1st - 6th grade who attend Dayton schools. We work with tutors from neighboring high schools and colleges that assist our Academic Coordinator/assistant to support the educational progress of the children in our program. We incorporated a pilot program with educational software to create individualized learning materials and identify areas of strength and weakness to have tutors work on those specific areas with each child. This structure will help reduce the gap created during the pandemic and has allowed the children to thrive. We partner with Wright State Universitys Education Department to hold an upper-level college class on site each fall semester providing one on one tutoring to a small group of students. We launched a GED program that enrolls both youth and adults who want to complete their high school diploma.

    Expenses $127,432 · Revenue $105,028

  • THE PARENT PROGRAM -We provide parental support at El Puente. Parents attend monthly meetings where the Academic Coordinator and the Parent Advocate go over the children s performance and provide guidance on creating study habits and routines that can help their children succeed.

    Expenses $25,486 · Revenue $21,005

  • ADDITIONAL COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES - Mental Health Navigator - A phone line dedicated to connect Latino families with mental health services in the area. Mental Health Support Groups - meet twice a month providing a safe, non-judgmental space where people with shared experiences (like illness, grief, or life challenges) can connect, share stories, and offer each other mutual emotional and practical support, reducing isolation and building coping skills through shared wisdom, fostering hope, empowerment, and a sense of community that complements professional treatment. Latino Wellness Clinics - we work with the Latino Medical Student Assoc, Premier Health Partners, Kettering Medical to offer basic medical services for the Latino community. Vision Program - partner with Prevent Blindness to offer free eye exams and glasses for qualifying persons. Dental Hygiene Clinics - we host about 15 hygiene clinics per year to members of our community.

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.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 26 October 2026. The IRS publishes only each organization's most recent postcard, so earlier years are not shown. A 990-N carries no financial detail. The postcard also gives the principal officer's address, which is not shown here.

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.

Grants received

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.
