Mission and programs · 2024

• Sentinels of Freedom Scholarship Foundation (the Foundation) is a Colorado not-for-profit organization which was formed and commenced its operations in January 2007 for the purpose of assisting veterans who have suffered severe duty-related injuries resulting in permanent physical disability since September 11, 2001. The assistance is intended to enable these veterans to become productive, self-sufficient, integrated members of their community, and to raise awareness of the sacrifice these veterans have made in order to motivate the local community to rally behind these young men and women and ensure their success. The Foundation offers a scholarship package for each sentinel that may include providing a home or an apartment adapted to the specific disabilities of the veteran, employment and employment training, reliable transportation, financial and career counseling, and mentoring.We had 52 Sentinels in the program at the end of 2024 and maintained a 89% success rating for graduations.

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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.

• BRADLEY B WILLIAMS

  $57,250 raised

  2020 · Commercial Fundraiser

  $51,525 to charity

• ALLAN R. JAMIESON

  $25,000 raised

  2020 · Commercial Fundraiser

  $21,775 to charity

Amounts are as filed and do not add up: a commercial coventurer reports one promotion's whole gross once for each charity that shared in it. A campaign may also name more than one registered charity, in which case it appears on each.
