• COLLECTIONS, PUBLICATIONS AND MUSEUM ACTIVITIESMHs historic periodical, The Montgomery County Story, released a fall and spring edition. The fall edition highlighted five objects added to collections in the last five years to commemorate Montgomery Historys 80th anniversary. The spring edition was part one of a two-part history spanning more than 60 years and features an in-depth look at the founding and operational history of the Poor Farm and Almshouse. Our artifact collection was in temporary storage for FY25. We received seventeen donations totaling 160 objects. Approximately 1000 objects were inventoried, photographed, and cataloged in our online collections management system.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 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.
