Mission

SEDES enriches the lives of youths and adults through education.

  • During 2025, SEDES served 2,187 individuals across five educational programs designed to remove economic, linguistic, and systemic barriers to opportunity for underserved adult populations in the Houston metropolitan area. Programs delivered include: English as a Second Language (ESL): 951 individuals served, equipping participants with English language skills essential for workforce participation and daily life integration. GED Preparation: 832 individuals served, supporting adults in earning their high school equivalency credential and expanding employment and higher education opportunities. Basic Electrical Training: 61 individuals served, providing vocational workforce skills aligned with Houston's high-demand trades sector. Financial Literacy: 237 individuals served, building household financial management skills and pathways to economic stability. Citizenship Education: 106 individuals served, preparing immigrant community members for the U.S. naturalization process and civic participation. Collectively, SEDES programs generated measurable community impact by advancing educational attainment, workforce readiness, and civic integration among one of Houston's most underserved populations.

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.

Something was entered that is not a web address, so it is not shown.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 26 October 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

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.
