Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Keys for Kids exists to ignite a passion for Christ in kids, teens and families worldwide. Our desire is to see every kid, teen and family have an opportunity to respond to the liberating power of the Gospel.

  • Keys for Kids Ministries produces devotionals called Keys for Kids (children ages 612) and Unlocked (teens 1318) in print, audio, and electronic formats (apps, podcasts, social media, and website). More than 400,000 devotionals were printed in English, Russian, Spanish, and Ukrainian. Audio versions of Keys for Kids devotions were produced in English, Albanian, Arabic, Greek, Macedonian, Nepali, Pashto, and Urdu through our Storyteller program. Hundreds of thousands of people can listen to the Keys for Kids syndicated radio programming on more than 600 radio outlets worldwide. Our programming is also available on Keys for Kids Radio, a full-time radio station for kids at keysforkids.net or on our mobile app. Approximately 40,000 people have downloaded our two mobile apps that allow them to read or listen to our various ministry resources. Our products are also available in our online store.

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.

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 26 October 2026, for every organization at once. Returns through tax year 2024, the newest we have parsed for this organization.
