Mission and programs · 2024

Primary exempt purpose

To improve the election process by making the act of voting more accessible to citizens, to lessen the influence of money in politics and to generally make elected officials more responsive to the citizens of North Carolina.

  • North Carolina For The People Action has played a central role in strengthening democratic institutions by coordinating communication and advocacy strategies across the state. We developed press strategies that drew attention to efforts undermining checks and balances, voting rights, and other core democratic safeguards. Through our coalition, we have brought together organizations and leaders to respond to threats against judicial independence, the right to peaceful assembly, fair elections, and campaign finance transparency. Specifically, we worked with our coalition partners on 1 constitutional amendment bill, 26 voting rights bills, 2 protect dissent bills, 4 structural democracy bills, 5 money in politics and good government bills, 3 tech and democracy bills, and 7 judicial integrity bills. Our communication to the public was through emails, Facebook posts, X posts, opinion articles in traditional media, and information disseminated to traditional news media. We invested in researching the more effective pro-democracy messaging and significantly upgraded our organizational communications. This included launching a new website, expanding to new social media platforms, and creating tailored messaging guides to better support and align our partners. Our approach combined advocacy to mitigate challenges with strategic communications efforts that informed the public and elevated democratic values. Even when challenges could not fully be stopped, we worked to ensure they were understood in the broader context of protecting democratic governance, helping to build long-term narrative change that supports a more resilient democracy.

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.

The four totals the IRS asks for on Part I of the Form 990, as filed. A dash means the figure was not present on the return — not that it was zero.

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.

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

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

Not present in the most recent drop.

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.
