Mission

PRESCHOOL ADVANTAGE PROVIDES FUNDING FOR QUALIFIED CHILDREN TO ATTEND OUR PARTNER PRESCHOOLS.

Activities or mission (Part I)

TO FUND TUITIONS TO PRESCHOOLS FOR LOW INCOME FAMILIES IN MORRIS AND SOMERSET COUNTY.

  • PRESCHOOL ASSISTANCE: THE FIRST YEARS OF A CHILD'S LIFE ARE CRITICAL TO LAYING THE FOUNDATION FOR A LIFETIME LOVE OF LEARNING. EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION SETS THE STAGE FOR FUTURE GROWTH AND PROPELS CHILDREN ONTO THEIR EDUCATIONAL PATHS. DESPITE THE UNDENIABLE IMPORTANCE OF A SOLID EDUCATIONAL START, MANY LOCAL CHILDREN HAVE NO MEANS TO ATTEND PRESCHOOL. PRESCHOOL ADVANTAGE SERVES THE POPULATION OF STRUGGLING FAMILIES WHO DO NOT QUALIFY FOR GOVERNMENT FUNDED PROGRAMS BECAUSE THEY EARN ABOVE THE POVERTY LEVEL, BUT ARE STILL EARNING BELOW THE LEVEL OF SUSTAINABILITY FOR OUR REGION. THESE FAMILIES SIMPLY CANNOT AFFORD THE COST OF A PRESCHOOL FOR THEIR CHILD THUS HINDERING THE CHILD'S SUCCESS AND OPPORTUNITIES LATER IN LIFE. THE LACK OF SOURCES OF ASSISTANCE FOR WORKING FAMILIES UNABLE TO SUPPORT THE COST OF PRESCHOOL LED TO THE FOUNDING OF PRESCHOOL ADVANTAGE IN MORRISTOWN IN 1995. TO DATE, WE HAVE FUNDED ALMOST 2,000 HALF-DAY PRESCHOOL TUITIONS FOR JUST UNDER $1,500 CHILDREN.

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.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

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.
