6 other organizations in the IRS Business Master File list the same street address. matched by us

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

Mission

STRENGTHENING AGRICULTURE AND THE LIVES OF KANSANS THROUGH LEADERSHIP, EDUCATION AND SERVICE.

  • THE RECIPIENTS OF THESE GRANTS AND CONTRIBUTIONS USED THE FUNDS TO DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT PROGRAMS THAT GENERALLY BENEFITED MORE THAN 30,000 PEOPLE ACROSS THE STATE OF KANSAS THROUGH DIRECT COMMUNICATION AND PERSONAL INVOLVEMENT WITH THE INFORMATION AND EDUCATIONAL ASPECTS OF THESE PROGRAMS. THE KANSAS FARM BUREAU FOUNDATION RAISES FUNDS AND PROVIDES GRANTS AND SCHOLARSHIPS FOR PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS DESIGNED TO HELP IMPROVE AGRICULTURE AND THE QUALITY OF LIFE IN RURAL KANSAS. THE THREE SIGNIFICANT PROGRAM SERVICES ARE SCHOLARSHIPS TO COLLEGE STUDENTS, END HUNGER GRANTS TO COMMUNITIES, AND AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION ACTIVITIES. SCHOLARSHIPS TO COLLEGE STUDENTS PLAY A VITAL ROLE IN EMPOWERING YOUNG INDIVIDUALS TO PURSUE HIGHER EDUCATION. BY PROVIDING FINANCIAL SUPPORT, THESE SCHOLARSHIPS ENABLE STUDENTS TO ACCESS QUALITY EDUCATION AND UNLOCK THEIR FULL POTENTIAL. END HUNGER GRANTS ADDRESS THE PRESSING ISSUE OF FOOD INSECURITIES IN COMMUNITIES. THROUGH STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS AND INITIATIVES, ORGANIZATIONS CAN MAKE A TANGIBLE IMPACT BY SUPPORTING PROGRAMS THAT PROVIDE MEALS AND RESOURCES TO THOSE IN NEED. THESE GRANTS CONTRIBUTE TOWARDS BUILDING STRONGER AND MORE RESILIENT COMMUNITIES. AGRICULTURE EDUCATION ACTIVITIES ARE CRUCIAL FOR FOSTERING SUSTAINABLE FARMING PRACTICES AND PROMOTING AGRICULTURAL INNOVATION. BY INVESTING IN EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS, ORGANIZATIONS CAN EQUIP INDIVIDUALS WITH THE KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS NEEDED TO THRIVE IN THE AGRICULTURAL SECTOR. THIS NOT ONLY BENEFITS FARMERS BUT ALSO CONTRIBUTES TOWARDS ENSURING FOOD SECURITY ON A LARGER SCALE.

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. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

The four totals the IRS asks for on Part I of the Form 990, as filed. A dash means the figure was not present on the return — not that it was zero.

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.

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.
