Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

THE MISSION OF THE LITTLE BIT FOUNDATION IS TO BREAK DOWN BARRIERS TO LEARNING FOR UNDER-RESOURCED STUDENTS THROUGH PARTNERSHIPS AND PROGRAMS THAT SERVE THE NEEDS OF THE WHOLE CHILD AND PROVIDE ACCESS TO ESSENTIAL SERVICES AND EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCES.

Activities or mission (Part I)

PARTNER WITH ST. LOUIS SCHOOLS TO PROVIDE ESSENTIAL SUPPORT TO DISADVANTAGED CHILDREN.

  • FILLS UNMET NEEDS IN ST. LOUIS SCHOOLS BY PROVIDING FOR THE ESSENTIALS STUDENTS LACK BUT REQUIRE FOR ACADEMIC SUCCESS. FOOD INSECURITY, UNDIAGNOSED HEALTH CONDITIONS, LACK OF WINTER CLOTHING, PROPER HYGIENE AND INSUFFICIENT READING MATERIAL IN THE HOME ARE ALL EXAMPLES OF BARRIERS THAT INHIBIT STUDENT ATTENDANCE, CLASSROOM ENGAGEMENT AND PERFORMANCE, AND ARE ADDRESSED BY LITTLE BIT. EMBEDDED IN SCHOOL COMMUNITIES, WITH VOLUNTEERS THAT WORK ONE-ON-ONE WITH STUDENTS ACROSS EVERY GRADE LEVEL, WE ENSURE THEY ARE HEALTHY, CONFIDENT AND READY TO LEARN. WE ALSO ENRICH THE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT WITH PROGRAMS NOT READILY AVAILABLE TO UNDERSERVED STUDENTS THAT EXPAND THEIR WORLD KNOWLEDGE, SUCH AS STEM AND CAREER PLANNING. THE RESULTS ARE STUDENTS BETTER EQUIPPED TO SUCCEED IN TODAY'S SOCIETY.

The first 25 listed. 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. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

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.
