| Form 990, Part VII, Section B, Line 1 | Independent contractor services totaled $535,876 for the year, of which $241,218 relates to non-recurring accounting services associated with the final year of outsourced accounting and the transition to an internal CFO and finance function. |
| Form 990, Part VIII, Line 12 | FY2025 marked the first revenue deficit in several years for uAspire, primarily due to the timing and conclusion of multi-year grants, non-renewals, and delays in funding decisions. Leadership implemented strategic measures to stabilize operations while safeguarding the organization's mission, including targeted investments in development capacity, foundation partnerships, and a reduction in force to align expenses with confirmed and probable revenue. Programmatic roles were prioritized to ensure continuity of critical student and family support services. uAspire maintains a conservative liquidity strategy to manage near-term fluctuations while continuing to advance long-term strategic priorities and impact. |
| Form 990, Part X, Line 26 | The organization experienced an increase in liabilities in 2025 due to the expansion of its scholarship administration program. uAspire administers scholarship awards funded by third-party donors. The organization does not have sole discretion over the selection criteria or award determinations and acts as an intermediary in transferring scholarship funds. Accordingly, these funds are treated as agency transactions and recorded as a liability until the funds are disbursed to students. |
