This address is a suite or unit (STE 700). 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

PACIFIC CHARTER SCHOOL DEVELOPMENT IS A NON-PROFIT REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT ORGANIZATION PROVIDING LOW-COST FACILITIES TO HIGH-QUALITY CHARTER SCHOOLS

Activities or mission (Part I)

TO DISMANTLE SYSTEMIC INEQUALITY IN EDUCATION BY EXPANDING EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS IN UNDER-RESOURCED COMMUNITIES.

  • PACIFIC CHARTER SCHOOL DEVELOPMENT (PCSD) IS ACCELERATING THE PACE OF URBAN SCHOOL REFORM AS A NON-PROFIT DEVELOPER FOR PUBLIC CHARTER SCHOOL FACILITIES. BY PARTNERING WITH SOME OF THE NATION'S HIGHEST PERFORMING ORGANIZATIONS THAT OPERATE SCHOOLS SERVING LOW-INCOME STUDENTS, WE ARE HELPING THESE GROUPS EXPAND AND SERVE MORE FAMILIES. WE CREATE SMALL, ACADEMICALLY-FRIENDLY, SUSTAINABLE AND ENVIRONMENTALLY-RESPONSIBLE CHARTER SCHOOL CAMPUSES AT A FRACTION OF THE "COST-PER-SEAT" INCURRED BY TRADITIONAL PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEMS. TO DATE, PCSD HAS COMPLETED NEARLY $1 BILLION IN TOTAL PROJECTS, LEVERAGING PHILANTHROPY, PRIVATE FINANCING, AND STATE FUNDING TO CREATE 115 FACILITIES SERVING 46,703 STUDENTS ACROSS MULTIPLE SCHOOL DISTRICTS AND MUNICIPALITIES. AT EACH PCSD CAMPUS EXCEPT ONE, AT LEAST 75% OF THE STUDENTS RECEIVE FREE OR REDUCED-PRICE MEALS THROUGH THE FEDERAL NATIONAL SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM. PCSD BUILDS PUBLIC CHARTER SCHOOLS THAT PROVIDE SMALLER, MORE CUSTOMIZED LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS THAT ARE YIELDING SUPERIOR ACADEMIC RESULTS. CHARTER SCHOOLS ARE FREE PUBLIC SCHOOLS. ADMISSION IS OPEN TO ALL AND DETERMINED BY AN UNBIASED LOTTERY OF THE APPLICANTS TO THE SCHOOL. THE DEMAND FOR CHARTER SCHOOLS CONTINUES TO GROW AS MORE PARENTS BECOME AWARE OF THIS OPPORTUNITY FOR THEIR CHILDREN. PCSD IS AT THE FOREFRONT OF MAKING THIS TRANSFORMATIVE CHANGE IN K-12 PUBLIC EDUCATION. VIA THE PROJECT DEVELOPMENT PROCESS, PCSD HELPS SCHOOLS OVERCOME TREMENDOUS BARRIERS TO FIND, FINANCE, ENTITLE, BUILD AND SECURE FACILITIES. PCSD'S DEVELOPMENT FEE, AT 5% OF PROJECT COST, IS BELOW MARKET. AS A LANDLORD, PCSD CHARGES A BELOW-MARKET RENT. WHEN EACH CHARTER SCHOOL TENANT REACHES A STATE OF MATURITY DEFINED BY METRICS INVOLVING ACADEMIC AND FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE AND COMMUNITY SUPPORT, PCSD WORKS WITH EACH SCHOOL'S LEADERSHIP TEAM TO SECURE LONG-TERM FINANCING TO SUPPORT THE PURCHASE OF THEIR CAMPUSES AT COST FROM PCSD. IN DOING SO, CHARTER SCHOOLS ACQUIRE REAL ASSETS AND LONG-TERM BALANCE SHEET STABILITY WHILE PCSD RECYCLES COMMITTED EQUITY SO EACH PHILANTHROPIC DOLLAR GENERATES ADDITIONAL CHARTER SCHOOL SEATS MANY TIMES OVER. PCSD'S PARTNERS CONTINUE TO INCLUDE SOME OF THE LEADING FOUNDATIONS INVOLVED IN URBAN EDUCATION REFORM: THE AHMANSON FOUNDATION, BROAD FOUNDATION, WALTON FAMILY FOUNDATION AND W.M. KECK FOUNDATION. THESE ORGANIZATIONS HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SEED THE ACTIVITIES OF PCSD WITH LARGE ENOUGH SUPPORT TO JUMPSTART PCSD'S CAPITAL INTENSIVE BUSINESS MODEL.

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.

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

Related organizations

From Schedule R Part II, where a filer lists the tax-exempt organizations it is related to by control. It does not record shared board members or money.

Declared on its 2023 return

Declared as related by

Taxable family

From Schedule R Parts I, III and IV: entities that legally are the filer, and taxable partnerships, corporations and trusts it is related to. These record ownership and control, not shared board members or money.

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.
