The Organization reviews income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns to determine if there are any income tax uncertainties. This includes positions that the entity is exempt from income taxes or not subject to income taxes on unrelated business income. The Organization recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the positions. The Organization has identified no significant income tax uncertainties. The Organization files information returns as a tax-exempt organization. Should that status be challenged in the future, all years since inception could be subject to review by the IRS. true ACTION CENTER ON RACE 1901 W CARROLL AVE 3RD FLR CHICAGO IL 60612 821199695 15000 0 Program Support Allied Media Projects 4126 3RD STREET Detroit MI 48201 010559608 105000 0 Program Support American Muslim Adv Council 2195 Nolensville Pike Nashville TN 37211 364720454 10000 0 Program Support Community Partners 1000 N Alameda St Suite 240 Los Angeles CA 90012 954302067 10000 0 Program Support CUNY School of Law 2 COURT SQUARE Long Island NY 11101 113235349 75000 0 Program Support Detroit Revival Engaging Mus PO Box 38152 Detroit MI 48238 464246696 30000 0 Program Support Emgage Foundation Inc 1140 3RD STREET NE 2ND FLR Washington DC 20002 261441032 40000 0 Program Support Faith In Action Network 999 N CAPITOL STREET NE 200 Washington DC 20002 942206497 30000 0 Program Support Georgia Muslim Voter Project 4745 BRAMBLE ROSE LN SUWANNE GA 30024 811446781 35000 0 Program Support Global Deaf Muslim USA 5695 Columbia Pike Falls Church VA 22041 823179004 30000 0 Program Support Huron University Found 2607 PALM AVE MANHATTAN BEACH CA 90266 208179397 30000 0 Program Support IL Muslim Civic Coalition 2425 W 22ND STREET Oak Brook IL 60523 832647003 30000 0 Program Support Indiana University Foundation PO Box 500 Bloomington IN 47402 356018940 10000 0 Program Support Inner City Muslim Action Net 2744 W 63RD STREET Chicago IL 60629 364167433 75000 0 Program Support Institute for Social Policy 6 Parklane Blvd Suite 510 Dearborn MI 48126 75000 0 Program Support INTL MUSEUM MUSLIM CULTURES 201 E PASCAGOULA Jackson MS 39211 364495799 30000 0 Program Support Leading Productive Lives LLC 3824 Cedar Springs Rd Dallas TX 75219 10000 0 Program Support MUHSEN PO Box 9486 Naperville IL 60567 473187591 10000 0 Program Support Muslim Advocates PO BOX 34440 Washington DC 20043 300298794 20000 0 Program Support Muslim Wellness Foundation 7433 LIMEKILN PIKE 204 Philadelphia PA 19138 472533025 50000 0 Program Support NEO Philanthropy Inc 45 W 36TH STREET 6TH FLOOR New York NY 10018 133191113 30000 0 Program Support New American Leaders Inc 30 West 26th Street 10th FL New York NY 10010 043519203 30000 0 Program Support Pillars of the Community 6403 IMPERIAL AVENUE SAN DIEGO CA 92114 452323183 30000 0 Program Support Project South 9 GAMMON AVE SE Atlanta GA 30315 30000 0 Program Support Reviving Islamic Sisterhood 1007 W BROADWAY AVE Minneapolis MN 55411 811236990 30000 0 Program Support Sahaba Initiative 1887 BUSINESS CENTER DR 3A SAN BERNANDINO CA 92408 452488503 10000 0 Program Support Sirat Chicago 4572 S Lake Park Avenue Chicago IL 60653 474847984 30000 0 Program Support Stanford University 485 Broadway Mail Code 8838 Redwood City CA 94063 941156365 30000 0 Program Support The Appellate Project 1835 7th St NW 194 Washington DC 20001 843852810 20000 0 Program Support University of South Calif 3720 S FLOWER STREET Los Angeles CA 90089 951642394 50000 0 Program Support Women Make Movies Inc 115 West 29th Street New York NY 10001 132740460 10000 0 Program Support 29 2 Grants and Scholarships 42 52170 Grantmaker's Description of How Grants are Used The organization monitors recipients of grant funds.
