Mission and programs · 2025
Mission
To help people of faith communities develop local solutions to the climate crisis and provide education to local governments about climate change and its consequences.
-
Education - FACS educates faith communities about the effects of climate change, how it disproportionately affects people of color, lower-income populations, and other vulnerable communities. FACS hosts a wide variety of well attended webinars. Our new Power of Faith program works with congregations regionally to help them lower their carbon footprint and save money to invest in their programs. A community engagement manager guides each congregation to track energy use, increase energy efficiency, install renewable energy, and finance their journeys.
Expenses $100,923
-
Outreach - Expanded presence in Northern Virginia in order to reach a broader and more diverse segment of the faith community, including strengthening hubs in the City of Alexandria, Arlington County, Loudoun County, Fairfax County and the Northern Shenandoah Valley. Participated in actions jointly with community partners, such as rallies to support the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative. Co-hosted programs and events with community partners focused on environmental issues. Hosted annual Sustainability Champion Awards and Climate Crisis Forum events.
Expenses $100,923
-
Advocacy - FACS convenes advocacy teams in six local jurisdictions led by volunteers which meet monthly by webinar and are tasked with organizing meetings with their local elected officials twice annually. We build capacity of advocacy teams through training and development of talking points and other materials. Calls to action are issued, including petitions, public testimony, letters to the editor, participation in climate marches, and rallies, etc. FACS builds momentum and joins coalitions in support of our NOVA to Zero campaign to move Northern Virginia counties and cities to net zero emissions by 2050. We host an annual Sustainability Champions Award ceremony in June.
Expenses $100,922

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.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 2 November 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.

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.
