This address is a suite or unit (STE 1000). 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 · 2023

Primary exempt purpose

The specific purpose of the Photojournalism Archive is to preserve and display in an online-only archive the work of photojournalists, especially but not exclusively individuals who have worked as staff photographers for newspapers and other journalistic publications, so their work can be studied by the public for educational enrichment. The work of photojournalists, especially those who focus on in-depth stories, is at risk of being lost to history as a result of the rapid decline of newspapers and the fact that most online publications do not archive the images, preserving only the written word. This was our first year as a nonprofit. We have been able to complete the development project, initiate a partnership with a university, develop a prototype for the archive and begin gathering the work of photographers. We have also established systems to digitize and preserve the images that will be in in the archive.

  • This was our first year as a nonprofit project. It was a development year and as such we worked on getting the project clearly defined, acquiring and implementing the systems to create and support the archive, creating the necessarily partnerships, relationships within the photojournalism community, and most significantly, building the prototype for the archive that we plan on launching in 2024. We did reach out to a dozen photojournalists who have agreed to participate in the project. They are and will benefit from the archive preserving their work, however that work is not available to the public yet. As executive director, I spoke to photojournalism students at the University of Missouri about our project and the need to preserve photojournalism. I also participated in a podcast with the National Press Photographers Association to publicize the project among members of the organizations.

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.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 2 November 2026. The IRS publishes only each organization's most recent postcard, so earlier years are not shown. A 990-N carries no financial detail. The postcard also gives the principal officer's address, which is not shown here.

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.

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.
