  • Our Annual Womens Film Festival showcases independent films made by women who cover topics that include, but not limited to race, class, gender, environmental degradation, social movements, history, military criminal justice, poetry, love and family. Important to note is the Youth Outreach Program that we offer during the film festival. High school students from across El Paso County can preview films that will be featured at the festival. They are encouraged to create art in any medium they choose, to express feelings that arise from watching the films and art that are showcased throughout the festival weekend. See Schedule O

    Expenses $125,828 · Revenue $75,909

  • Filmmakers Retreat: Every year Rocky Mountain Womens Film invites Filmmakers from around the country, all who are previous festival attendees, to spend 3 days at a beautiful ranch home in the mountains to discuss issues and challenges facing women directors, sharing resources and expertise, and creating a supportive community among female documentarians. More than anything, this weekend is about connection and rejuvenation.

    Expenses $5,506 · Revenue $3,000

  • PopUp Cinema has continued to grow since 2022 when we started the program. The program was created in response to our communitys desire to keep local independent movie theatre alive (the last independent movie theater in Colorado Springs closed in Feb 2022).

    Expenses $5,900 · Revenue $13,286

  • Film Club and Film in the Community are free monthly events, allowing all socioeconomic backgrounds access to engaging, powerful material. Schedule O

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.

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 11 November 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 9 November 2026 and read 9 November 2026, for every organization at once. Returns through tax year 2024, the newest we have parsed for this organization.
