Mission

LIFELAB KIDS FOUNDATION HELPS STUDENTS OF ALL ABILITIES TO DISCOVER AND EXPLORE THEIR UNIQUE, TRUE POTENTIAL THROUGH A BLEND OF EVIDENCE-BASED INTERVENTIONS, THERAPEUTIC ACTIVITIES, AND INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES.

  • IN 2025, LIFELAB KIDS ACHIEVED SIGNIFICANT GROWTH IN BOTH PROGRAM INNOVATION AND ORGANIZATIONAL SUSTAINABILITY. WE EXPANDED OUR TECHNOLOGY PROGRAM INTO A COMPREHENSIVE STEM CURRICULUM, INTRODUCING ROBOTICS, CODING, ENGINEERING, AND HANDS-ON SCIENCE ACTIVITIES THAT PROMOTE PROBLEM-SOLVING, COMMUNICATION, EXECUTIVE FUNCTIONING, AND COLLABORATION FOR CHILDREN AND YOUNG ADULTS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES. THESE ENGAGING, INTEREST- BASED LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES HAVE STRENGTHENED OUR ABILITY TO DELIVER MEANINGFUL, CHILD-LED THERAPEUTIC EXPERIENCES WHILE PREPARING PARTICIPANTS WITH SKILLS THAT SUPPORT FUTURE ACADEMIC, VOCATIONAL, AND INDEPENDENT LIVING SUCCESS. IN ADDITION TO PROGRAM EXPANSION, LIFELAB KIDS MADE SUBSTANTIAL PROGRESS TOWARD FISCAL SUSTAINABILITY ACROSS ALL SERVICE DEPARTMENTS. THROUGH STRATEGIC OPERATIONAL PLANNING, IMPROVED RESOURCE ALLOCATION, AND A FOCUS ON SERVICE EFFICIENCY, WE STRENGTHENED THE FINANCIAL HEALTH OF OUR ORGANIZATION WHILE MAINTAINING HIGH-QUALITY CLINICAL CARE. THESE EFFORTS HAVE POSITIONED LIFELAB KIDS TO CONTINUE INVESTING IN INNOVATIVE PROGRAMMING, EXPANDING ACCESS TO SERVICES, AND ENSURING LONG-TERM STABILITY FOR THE CHILDREN, FAMILIES, AND COMMUNITIES WE SERVE.

As listed in Part VII of the 2025 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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.

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.

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 2025, the newest we have parsed for this organization.
