Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

TO RENDER FINANCIAL AID AND SUPPORT TO THE POOR AND DISADVANTAGED IN THE USA AND ISRAEL.

  • AMERICAN FRIENDS OF YAD ELIEZER IS A CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION WHOSE OBJECTIVE IS TO COMBAT POVERTY AT ITS ROOT, THROUGH AN ARRAY OF PROGRAMS THAT PROVIDE CRITICAL SHORT-TERM RELIEF, WHILE FACILITATING LONG-TERM RECOVERY. AMONG ITS MANY INITIATIVES AIMED AT COMBATING POVERTY, AMERICAN FRIENDS OF YAD ELIEZER SUBSIDIZES EFFORTS TO FEED INDIGENT CHILDREN, FAMILIES AND THE FRAIL AND ELDERLY. IT CONTRIBUTES TO EFFORTS TO ARRANGE AND DISSEMINATE FOOD VOUCHERS TO THE NEEDY WHICH CAN BE REDEEMED AT LOCAL SUPERMARKETS. THE ORGANIZATION SUPPORTS THE DISTRIBUTION OF FOOD BOXES CONTAINING BASIC GROCERY STAPLES AND HOUSEHOLD ITEMS. IN ADDITION TO SUBSIDIZING FOOD FOR THE POOR, AMERICAN FRIENDS OF YAD ELIEZER SPONSORS JOB TRAINING AND ADOLESCENT MENTORING PROGRAMS THAT ASSIST NEEDY FAMILIES AND GUIDE THEM TOWARD ECONOMIC RECOVERY AND ENHANCED SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT.ADDITIONALLY, YAD ELIEZER PROVIDES CASH DISBURSEMENTS TO THOUSANDS OF FAMILIES FOR A ONE-TIME NEED. WHETHER DUE TO A MEDICAL EMERGENCY, AN UNEXPECTED EXPENSE, OR THE NEED TO GET THROUGH A DIFFICULT TIME, THIS FUND ALLEVIATES THEIR FINANCIAL DISTRESS AND ALLOWS THEM TO FOCUS ON REAL ISSUES. THESE GRANTS OFTEN PREVENT A ONE-TIME CRISIS FROM FORCING A FAMILY INTO A DOWNWARD SPIRAL OF POVERTY FROM WHICH THEY CAN NEVER ESCAPE. THE ORGANIZATION ALSO SUPPORTS EFFORTS TO PROVIDE MONTHLY STIPENDS TO WIDOWS RUNNING SINGLE PARENT HOMES AND WHO, DESPITE SUPPORT FROM GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE, HAVE TROUBLE MAKING ENDS MEET.FURTHERMORE, GETTING MARRIED AND HOSTING A WEDDING CAN ALSO BE A HUGE EXPENSE. WHILE MOST FAMILIES CAN FIND A WAY TO MANAGE THAT EXPENSE, POOR FAMILIES IN ISRAEL OFTEN JUST CAN'T BEAR IT. AMERICAN FRIENDS OF YAD ELIEZER SUBSIDIZES CLOSE TO 1,000 WEDDINGS A YEAR MAKING THEM AFFORDABLE AND ALLOWING THE FAMILIES TO ENJOY THE CELEBRATIONS.

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. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. 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.

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.
