KINDNESS CAMPAIGN IN 2020 WE LAUNCHED OUR FIRST SCHOOL-WIDE KINDNESS CAMPAIGNS WITH THE GOAL OF PROMOTING KINDNESS AND INCLUSION IN AN ACTIVE, IMPACTFUL WAY. THOUSANDS OF STUDENTS HAVE NOW PARTICIPATED IN THESE PROGRAMS. THROUGHOUT THE CAMPAIGNS, STUDENTS WRITE NOTES, WEAR KIDNESS BRACELETS AND PINS, AND MAKE A PLEDGE TO FOCUS ON KINDNESS AND INCLUSION. THEY ALSO PARTICPATE IN LESSONS AND ACTIVITIES THAT PROMOTE ENGAGEMENT IN REAL-WORLD SETTINGS. OVER SEVERAL WEEKS STUDENTS WATCH FOR OTHERS ACTS OF KINDNESS AND NOMINATE PEERS FOR RECOGNITION AND AWARDS. THE KINDNESS CAMPAIGNS HELP TRANSFORM CLASSROOMS AND PLAYGROUNDS INTO PLACES OF SAFETY, ENCOUREGMENT, ADVOCACY, AND INCLUSION.

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.

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.
