Mission
The Tucson Jazz Music Foundation is dedicated to making jazz music education accessible for Arizona's youth and the community. We provide tuition and travel scholarships to middle and high school age students (financial needs based), sponsor guest artists for workshops, performances, and residencies and recordings; sponsor participation fees and group travel expenses to adjudicated competitions and jazz festivals, provide mentors and private lessons to scholarship students, and organize and sponsor educational jazz music school shows and annual jazz celebrations.
Each tax year counts once: when a return was amended, only the latest return for that period is used below (superseded returns stay listed, greyed, under Finances).

Who gave
Contributor names are not public for this form type.
Public charities filing Form 990 or 990-EZ report large donors on Schedule B, but the IRS withholds their names and addresses from public copies. Private foundations (990-PF) are different: their contributors are public.
Finances
Newest first. Each filing: its name on one row, its figures on the row beneath. Greyed filings are superseded by a later return for the same period and are left out everywhere else on this page.

Where the money went
Every expense line on each return, biggest first: Form 990 Part IX (with its program, management and fundraising columns), 990-EZ Part I, or 990-PF Part I. Event marks lines the organization itself describes as events. “Events” in each summary adds those lines, conferences and meetings, and the direct costs of fundraising events. Unusual is not the same as improper. Many of these patterns have ordinary explanations. Check the filing.
