Mission and programs · 2023

• CAREER PROGRAMMING/HORIZONS - THE PPS FOUNDATION'S CAREER MENTORING PROGRAM CONSISTS OF HORIZONS CLUBS AND THE SEE IT, BE IT PROGRAM. HORIZONS CLUBS PARTNER WITH COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO SPEAK WITH PEORIA PUBLIC SCHOOL 6-8TH GRADE STUDENTS ABOUT THEIR CAREER PATHS DURING THEIR LUNCHTIMES ON A WEEKLY BASIS. THERE IS A HORIZON CLUB AT EACH PPS DISTRICT 150 MIDDLE SCHOOL. THESE CLUBS FOCUS ON TEACHING STUDENTS SOFT SKILLS, GOAL SETTING TECHNIQUES AND PROVIDING INFORMATION ON DIFFERENT CAREER PATHS. SOME EXAMPLES OF CAREER SPEAKERS INCLUDE DOCTORS, LAWYERS, VETERINARIANS, CONSTRUCTION WORKERS, COMMUNITY LEADERS, AND ARCHITECTS. THE SEE IT BE IT PROGRAM IS TARGETED FOR STUDENTS IN KINDERGARTEN THROUGH 5TH GRADE. EACH GRADE LEVEL HAS A SERIES OF COMMUNITY SPEAKERS THAT TALK TO THE STUDENTS AT THEIR LEVEL TO SPARK THEIR IMAGINATIONS AND GET THEM THINKING ABOUT WHAT THEY WANT TO BE WHEN THEY GROW UP. PREVIOUS GRADE LEVEL CAREER PATHS HAVE INCLUDED, MEDICAL BASED JOBS, ENGINEERING JOBS AND EMERGENCY SERVICE JOBS (POLICE, FIRE FIGHTERS, ETC). FIELD TRIPS TO DIFFERENT BUSINESSES ARE AN ESSENTIAL COMPONENT OF BOTH HORIZONS CLUB AND SEE IT, BE IT. THE PPS FOUNDATION STRIVES TO PROVIDE AT LEAST ONE FIELD TRIP PER SEMESTER TO ALL OF THE HORIZONS CLUBS AND EACH OF THE GRADE LEVELS IN THE SEE IT, BE IT PROGRAM. EACH FIELD TRIP STARTS WITH A CAREER SPEAKER AND THEN INCORPORATES A FUN ACTIVITY THAT STUDENTS MAY NOT HAVE HAD THE CHANCE TO DO BEFORE. SOME PREVIOUS FIELD TRIPS INCLUDE ICE SKATING WITH A CAREER SPEAKER FROM THE PEORIA PARK DISTRICT, ROCK CLIMBING WITH A CAREER SPEAKER ABOUT MANAGING SMALL UPSTART BUSINESSES AND JUMP TRADING SIMULATION CENTER WITH A CAREER SPEAKER ON THE MEDICAL FIELD. GRANTS AND LARGE DONATIONS ARE THE MAIN FUNDING TO PROVIDE FOR FIELD TRIPS.BESIDES THE COST OF FIELD TRIPS (WHICH INCLUDES BUSING, ACTIVITY FEES AND FOOD FOR STUDENTS), THE OTHER PROGRAM COSTS ARE SALARIES TO PAY THE HORIZONS STAFF AND COORDINATOR OF THE PROGRAM, THE COST FOR SNACKS AND TREATS GIVEN OUT TO THE STUDENTS SINCE IT IS DURING THEIR LUNCHTIME, CLASSROOM SUPPLIES FOR THE HORIZONS TEACHERS, AND MISCELLANEOUS COSTS FOR INCENTIVES SUCH AS PIZZA PARTIES TO KEEP THE STUDENTS ENGAGED IN THE PROGRAM. THIS PROGRAM DOES NOT GRANT ANY FUNDS OUT OR GENERATE ANY REVENUE. EACH YEAR THE PROGRAM EXPENSES ARE OFFSET BY DONATIONS AND GRANTS RECEIVED FROM OUTSIDE ORGANIZATIONS. ANY AMOUNT NOT COVERED BY GRANTS OR DONATIONS DIRECTLY FOR THIS PROGRAM IS PROVIDED BY THE PPS FOUNDATION'S GENERAL FUND OR RIGHT NOW FUND (WHERE DONATIONS ARE GIVEN TO BE USED WHERE THEY ARE NEEDED MOST).THE ESTIMATED NUMBER OF STUDENTS INVOLVED IN THE SEE IT BE IT PROGRAM IS 4,500. THE ESTIMATED NUMBER OF STUDENTS IN HORIZONS CLUBS IS 800. TOGETHER THIS TOTALS ABOUT 5,300 STUDENTS INVOLVED IN THE CAREER MENTORING PROGRAM.

Officers and directors · 2023

As listed in Part VII of the 2023 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. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.
