  • WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT BEST PRACTICES IDENTIFICATION, COMMUNICATION AND TRAINING - THIS MULTI-YEAR PROJECT SEEKS TO IDENTIFY SUCCESSFUL STRATEGIES USED TO HIRE, DEVELOP AND RETAIN EMPLOYEES IN SHEET METAL, HVAC, AND MECHANICAL CONSTRUCTION COMPANIES. IN THE FIRST PHASE OF THIS PROJECT, WHICH WAS INITIATED IN DECEMBER 2022, THE NEW HORIZONS FOUNDATION INVESTIGATED AND REPORTED ON THE FOLLOWING CURRENT ISSUES IN WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT. 1. INVESTIGATED WHAT YOUNG WORKERS WANT AND NEED IN THEIR CAREERS. 2. EXPLORED CHARACTERISTICS UNIQUE TO THE NEXT GENERATION OF WORKERS. 3. EXAMINED WHAT THE YOUNGER GENERATION EXPECTS FROM THEIR JOBS. 4. ASSESSED DIVERSITY, EQUITY, AND INCLUSION PRACTICES IN LOCAL AREAS. THE NHF IDENTIFIED, MET WITH AND PROFILED 28 WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT ORGANIZATIONS (WDOS) TO UNDERSTAND THEIR OBJECTIVES, CONTENT, DELIVERY METHODS, HISTORY AND RESULTS, ESPECIALLY AS THEY IMPACT THE ABOVE ISSUES. IN THE CURRENT SECOND PHASE OF THIS PROJECT, THE FOUNDATION IS HIGHLIGHTING THE TOP 25% OF WDOS THROUGH FACILITATED PODCASTS. TWO OF THE SEVEN RECORDINGS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED AND ARE BEING EDITED FOR RELEASE IN JULY. THE REMAINING FIVE PODCASTS ARE SCHEDULED FOR COMPLETION BY THE 3RD QUARTER 2024. THESE WDOS FOCUS ON BRINGING UNDER-REPRESENTED GROUPS (WOMEN AND MINORITIES) INTO BUILDING TRADES AND THEIR SUCCESSES (AND STRUGGLES) ARE FEATURED IN THE PODCASTS. A THIRD PROJECT PHASE IS UNDERWAY WITH THE FOLLOWING OBJECTIVES IDENTIFIED. 1. CURATE THE CAPTURED WDOS CONTENT INTO CONCISE INFOGRAPHICS. 2. FOCUS ON LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT FOR TRADE AND NON-TRADE HIRES AND PRODUCE SHORT VIDEOS TO SHOWCASE SUCCESSFUL PRACTICES (MENTORING, SHADOWING, AND ONBOARDING). 3. DEVELOP A ROADMAP/TEMPLATE FOR IMPLEMENTATION BY CONTRACTORS AND LOCAL ASSOCIATIONS (SMACNA CHAPTERS). 4. CONTINUE INDUSTRY PRESENTATIONS ON PROJECT FINDINGS AND CONTINUE TO EXPAND SUCCESSFUL WDO CONTACTS AND RELATIONSHIPS. 5. DEVELOP A WDO MEDIA SITE ON THE NHF WEBSITE AND CONTINUE WORK TO IMPROVE THE SEARCH ENGINE PRESENCE AND FUNCTIONALITY OF THE NHF WEBSITE, PARTICULARLY AS IT RELATES TO WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT ISSUES AND INTERESTS.

  • VDC ENGINEERING STUDY - THIS JOINT PROJECT WITH THE GENTILLE AND ELECTRI FOUNDATIONS AND THE UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON HAS THE FOLLOWING OBJECTIVES:1. DEVELOP METRICS TO SUPPORT THE ESTIMATION OF VDC ENGINEERING FOR MEP TRADES2. BENCHMARK CURRENT VDC ENGINEERING PRACTICES AND PERFORMANCE, AND,3. DEVELOP METRICS TO EVALUATE THE EFFICIENCIES AND EFFECTIVENESS OF VIRTUAL DESIGN AND COORDINATION.THIS PROJECT ORIGINALLY CONTEMPLATED PERFORMANCE OF TIME STUDIES OF VDC PROCESSES. HOWEVER, A LACK OF VOLUNTEER PARTICIPATION FROM THE THREE AFFILIATED ASSOCIATIONS HAS RESULTED IN REVISITING THE DATA COLLECTION PROCESS. THE THREE FOUNDATIONS ARE PRESENTLY AWAITING A REVISED PROPOSAL FROM THE UNIVERSITY. THE NEW HORIZONS FOUNDATION IS EVALUATING ITS CONTINUED PARTICIPATION IN THE PROJECT.

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here. A text marked withheld matched a screen for wording that may name a private individual, such as an honorific or "in memory of". Most of what it withholds names no one; it is withheld so that what does is never shown.

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. 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

Related organizations

From Schedule R Part II, where a filer lists the tax-exempt organizations it is related to by control. It does not record shared board members or money.

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.
