Mission

THE MISSION OF THE FOUNDATION FOR JUSTICE AND DEVELOPMENT IS TO BUILD A WELL-EDUCATED NEXT GENERATION; CHILDREN WITH STRONG POTENTIAL AND POSITIVE FUTURES. WE KNOW THAT LEAVING MILLIONS OF CHILDREN WITHOUT EDUCATION WILL ONLY FOSTER A HOPELESS GENERATION WHICH CAN LEAD TO IMBALANCE AND RADICALISM. OUR DREAM OF DEMOCRACY IN THE FUTURE HAS TO START WITH THE RIGHT EDUCATION. THERE IS NO HOPE FOR DEMOCRATIC SOCIETY WITHOUT PROVIDING PROPER EDUCATION TO THE YOUNG GENERATION, WHICH IS THE VERY CORE OF OUR FOUNDATION. WE BELIEVE THAT AN EDUCATED PERSON WILL BE SUCCESSFUL IN THE FUTURE. THIS SUCCESS WILL LEAD IN TURN TO ECONOMICAL INDEPENDENCE, WHICH WILL END UP WITH A BETTER WORLD.

Each tax year counts once: when a return was amended, only the latest return for that period is used below (superseded returns stay listed, greyed, under Finances).

People paid by the organization

None of the 16 people listed on these returns reported compensation from the organization. They are listed below.

Officers and directors, no compensation reported

16 people listed on the returns with $0 (or no amount) in every compensation column: current people first. Hours are as filed on the latest return each person appears on.

People by year

Highest-paid independent contractors

No independent contractors reported.

Who the money went to

Grants this organization reported paying: Schedule I Part II of the Form 990, or the grants-paid list on the 990-PF. Open a year for every recipient. Recipients link to their own page when the grant names an EIN we have (990-PF grants list no EIN, so those link only on an exact, unique name and state). Grants to individuals are counted; their names are not shown.

Negative amounts are returned or refunded grants; they are listed last and left out of the totals of grants paid.

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 Greyed filings are superseded by a later return for the same period and are left out everywhere else on this page.

Connected to

Organizations that list some of the same people on their returns (officers, directors, key employees on this organization’s latest return), and related organizations it lists on Schedule R.

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.
