Mission

THE PURPOSE OF THE ORGANIZATION IS TO PLAN, PROMOTE AND SUPPORT COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES WHICH PRESERVE THE JAPANESE AMERICAN AND MULTI-ETHNIC CULTURE AND HISTORY OF LITTLE TOKYO AND CONTRIBUTE TO ITS PHYSICAL, SOCIAL, CULTURAL AND ECONOMIC REVITALIZATION; TO SERVE AS A RESOURCE FOR SIMILAR COMMUNITY ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT EFFORTS IN OTHER LOW-INCOME COMMUNITIES, PARTICULARLY ASIAN AND PACIFIC ISLANDER COMMUNITIES; AND TO DEVELOP, PROVIDE AND MAINTAIN AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND HOUSING-RELATED SERVICES IN THE LITTLE TOKYO AREA AND IN THE GREATER LOS ANGELES METROPOLITAN AREA FOR THE BENEFIT OF LOW TO MODERATE INCOME PEOPLE.

Each tax year counts once: when a return was amended, only the latest return for that period is used below (superseded returns stay listed, greyed, under Finances).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

12 people paid across every filing: current people first, then by total pay from this organization. Organizations counts every nonprofit each person appears on.

Officers and directors, no compensation reported

75 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

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 Greyed filings are superseded by a later return for the same period and are left out everywhere else on this page.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