  • EDUCATION: THE QUALITY OF CHILDREN'S LEARNING AND EDUCATION DEPENDS ON THEIR HOME, SCHOOL, COMMUNITY AND EVEN NATIONWIDE EDUCATION SYSTEMS.

  • MICRO-ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT: PROGRAMS FOCUSING ON ESSENTIAL TECHNICAL AND SOFT SKILLS, YOUTH EMPLOYABILITY, ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND DIGITAL LITERACY ARE VITAL FOR EQUIPPING YOUNG PEOPLE WITH THE COMPETENCIES REQUIRED TO THRIVE IN EVOLVING ECONOMIES.

    Expenses $17,903,467 · Grants $13,814,796 · Revenue $86,638

  • EARLY CHILDHOOD DEVELOPMENT: CHILDFUND'S APPROACH FOCUSES ON HELPING LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS AND GOVERNMENTS SUPPORT FAMILIES TO CREATE THE CONDITIONS THAT THEIR YOUNGEST CHILDREN NEED FOR HEALTHY DEVELOPMENT DURING THEIR EARLIEST YEARS.

  • NUTRITION: MALNUTRITION IS COMMON IN MANY REGIONS WHERE CHILDFUND WORKS, WHERE COMMUNITIES ARE PARTICULARLY VULNERABLE DUE TO POVERTY, FOOD INSECURITY AND LIMITED ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE. THIS MAKES NUTRITION PROGRAMMING CRITICAL FOR IMPROVING HEALTH OUTCOMES, FOSTERING ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND THUS STABILITY. PROPER NUTRITION PROGRAMMING CAN SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE UNDER-5 DEATHS AND PREVENT DISEASES RELATED TO MALNUTRITION FOR ALL CHILDREN. CHILDFUND'S APPROACH REDUCES MALNUTRITION BY PROMOTING HEALTHY INFANT AND YOUNG-CHILD FEEDING PRACTICES, TRAINING AND MOBILIZING COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKERS TO PROVIDE NUTRITION SERVICES, AND CONNECTING FAMILIES WITH LOCAL HEALTH SERVICES.

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. 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.

California fundraising campaigns

Campaigns run by paid fundraisers, commercial coventurers and thrift stores naming this organization, as California published them. Both figures are as filed, and what the first one counts depends on the campaign type — a coventurer or a thrift store files its own sales rather than money collected for the charity. The 990 reports this only as a yearly total, never per campaign.

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.
