Other organizations at this address

This address is a suite or unit (STE 174). 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 · 2024

Mission

WE PARTNER LOCALLY TO ENSURE THAT GIRLS HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE, TOOLS, MENTORSHIP AND SUPPORT TO CONFIDENTLY DESIGN THEIR OWN FUTURES.

  • DARING GIRLS SUPPORTS THE IMPLEMENTATION OF TWO MENTORING PROGRAMS. KISA PROJECT IS A TWO-YEAR LEADERSHIP COURSE LED LOCALLY IN TANZANIA BY GLAMI. THE PROGRAM PREPARES GIRLS IN THEIR LAST TWO YEARS OF SECONDARY SCHOOL TO ATTEND UNIVERSITY AND CREATE POSITIVE SOCIAL CHANGE IN THEIR COMMUNITIES. BINTI SHUPAVU IS A FOUR-YEAR LIFE SKILLS COURSE LED LOCALLY IN TANZANIA BY GLAMI FOR LOWER SECONDARY SCHOOL GIRLS COVERING TOPICS SUCH AS STUDY SKILLS, PERSONAL LEADERSHIP, HEALTH, AND SELF-CONFIDENCE. IT IS TAILORED TO ADDRESS KEY CHALLENGES THAT LEAD TO HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF VULNERABLE GIRLS DROPPING OUT OF SECONDARY SCHOOL EACH YEAR, WITH THE GOAL OF INCREASING THEIR GRADUATION RATES. DARING GIRLS WAS HISTORICALLY THE PRIMARY FUNDING SOURCE FOR GLAMI IN IMPLEMENTING BOTH PROGRAMS, BUT LONG- TERM GRANTORS NOW MAINLY PROVIDE FUNDING DIRECTLY TO GLAMI, UNDERSCORING THE STRENGTH OF THIS PROGRAMMING AND HOW IT IS MANAGED BY LOCAL LEADERSHIP.

    Expenses $292,374 · Grants $174,464

  • IN 2023, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH GLAMI, DARING GIRLS EXPANDED SUPPORT FOR THE BINTI SHUPAVU MENTORING PROGRAM THROUGH A NEW PILOT PROGRAM THAT SEEKS TO DEMONSTRATE THAT THESE TIME TESTED, SUCCESSFUL GIRLS' MENTORING PROGRAMS CAN BE CONTEXTUALIZED AND IMPLEMENTED ANYWHERE. TOGETHER WE SELECTED OUR FIRST PILOT PARTNER IN KENYA, THE CENTRE FOR WOMEN EMPOWERMENT IN TECHNOLOGY (CWE-TECH). THEY RECEIVE IMPLEMENTATION FUNDING FROM DARING GIRLS AS WELL AS IN-PERSON AND ONGOING VIRTUAL TRAINING AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE FROM DARING GIRLS AND GLAMI, TO LOCALIZE CURRICULUM FRAMEWORK TO ENSURE IT IS TAILORED TO THE SPECIFIC NEEDS OF GIRLS IN MURANG'A COUNTY, KENYA, WHERE CWE-TECH OPERATES. IN 2024, WE ANNOUNCED TWO ADDITIONAL PARTNERS THAT WILL ROUND OUT OUR PILOT OF THREE ORGANIZATIONS IN THREE DIFFERENT COUNTRIES THAT ARE LOCALIZING AND IMPLEMENTING THIS CURRICULUM.

    Expenses $10,000 · Grants $10,000

  • IN ADDITION TO KISA PROJECT AND BINTI SHUPAVU, DARING GIRLS SUPPORTS A HANDFUL OF SMALLER LEGACY PROGRAMS THAT PROVIDE EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS IN TANZANIA. DARING GIRLS PROVIDES SCHOLARSHIPS FOR STUDENTS IN SECONDARY SCHOOL AND UNIVERSITY AND FUNDS A SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM FOR A PRIMARY SCHOOL IN A RURAL MAASAI COMMUNITY.

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.

What this page reflects

The registration facts above come from the IRS Business Master File published 13 October 2026 and read 1 November 2026, for every organization at once. Returns through tax year 2024, the newest we have parsed for this organization.
