Other organizations at this address

1 other organization in the IRS Business Master File lists the same street address. matched by us

This address is a suite or unit (STE 500). Organizations that share one are often clients of the same office-services firm, accountant or registered agent rather than related to each other.

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 · 2025

Mission

OXFAM AMERICA ACTION FUND (OAAF) IS A PARTNER ORGANIZATION TO OXFAM AMERICA. OAAF STRIVES TO END GLOBAL POVERTY, HUNGER, AND SOCIAL INJUSTICE THROUGH LEGISLATIVE LOBBYING AND POLITICAL ADVOCACY.

Activities or mission (Part I)

OXFAM AMERICA ACTION FUND STRIVES TO END POVERTY AND INJUSTICE THROUGH LOBBYING AND ADVOCACY.

  • ACCOUNTABLE GOVERNANCE: OAAF COMBATS INEQUALITY, THE ROOT CAUSE OF POVERTY AND INJUSTICE, THROUGH LEGISLATIVE LOBBYING AND POLITICAL ADVOCACY. OAAF CONTINUED TO PUSH CONGRESS TO MAKE ROBUST INVESTMENTS IN FOREIGN ASSISTANCE FUNDING AFTER THE DISMANTLING OF USAID AND CUTS TO FOREIGN AID, WHICH RESULTED IN CONGRESS ALLOCATING $50B IN FUNDING FOR FOREIGN ASSISTANCE. OAAF HAS ENGAGED ON A SUITE OF TAX-RELATED LEGISLATION, ON ISSUES RANGING FROM TAXATION OF THE ULTRA-RICH AND STRENGTHENING CORPORATE TAX RATES AND ENFORCEMENT, WITH A FOCUS ON THE ONE BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL ACT'S RAMIFICATION FOR TAX FAIRNESS AND CUTS TO THE SOCIAL SAFETY NET. OAAF ADVOCATED FOR FEDERAL LABOR POLICIES THAT SUPPORT WORKERS AND REDUCE INEQUALITY, WHILE FIGHTING BACK AGAINST REGULATORY ROLLBACKS TO WORKERS' RIGHTS.

    Expenses $122,194

  • EDUCATING THE PUBLIC: OAAF ACTIVATED SUPPORTERS AROUND OXFAM AMERICA'S FIRST-EVER U.S. INEQUALITY REPORT, "UNEQUAL: THE RISE OF A NEW AMERICAN OLIGARCHY AND THE AGENDA WE NEED", WHICH HIGHLIGHTED HOW DECADES OF INTENSIFYING INEQUALITY IN THE U.S. HAVE CULMINATED IN A NEW AMERICAN OLIGARCHY, CHARACTERIZED BY RECORD LEVELS OF WEALTH CONCENTRATION AND OUTSIZED POLITICAL POWER. WE HOSTED TWO ORGANIZING AND POWER-BUILDING TRAININGS WITH PARTNERS, BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS WITH LOCAL NONPROFITS, AND HOSTED COMMUNITY-BASED POSTCARD WRITING EVENTS IN CHICAGO, CALLING TO TAX THE ULTRA-RICH. OXFAM ACTION NETWORK VOLUNTEERS ATTENDED ELLEVATE LOUISIANA'S LEGISLATIVE POLICY CONFERENCE IN BATON ROUGE, JOINING LABOR AND ADVOCACY PARTNERS FOCUSED ON STRENGTHENING ECONOMIC SECURITY FOR WOMEN AND FAMILIES.

    Expenses $59,143

  • CAMPAIGNING: OAAF CAMPAIGNS FOR FAIR AND JUST POLICIES. THE OXFAM ACTION NETWORK CONTINUED BUILDING ORGANIZING CAPACITY AND SUPPORTER ENGAGEMENT THROUGH A MIX OF TRAININGS, VOLUNTEER MOBILIZATIONS, ADVOCACY MEETINGS, AND LOCAL COMMUNITY EVENTS. OAAF CONTINUED ADVOCACY DIRECTLY TO CONGRESS, THROUGH MULTIPLE FLY-IN LOBBY DAYS, WHERE OAAF SUPPORTERS LOBBIED CONGRESS ON FOREIGN ASSISTANCE FUNDING AS WELL AS LEGISLATIVE LANGUAGE RELATED TO CONGRESSIONAL SPENDING DIRECTIVES, ADMINISTRATION REPORTING REQUIREMENTS, AND TRANSPARENCY PROVISIONS. OAAF ADVANCED A ROBUST LABOR AGENDA THROUGH STATE-LEVEL ADVOCACY, COALITION BUILDING, AND SUSTAINED PARTNERSHIP WITH ORGANIZATIONS WORKING TO IMPROVE ECONOMIC SECURITY FOR WOMEN AND FAMILIES ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST.

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.

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.

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

Not present in the most recent drop.

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.
