Financial Disclosure
Every dollar we raise and spend is on a public return you can read yourself.
UMMA Foundation is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, Tax ID 86-3883211, with an IRS determination dated 2022. We file a Form 990 every year. Those returns are public record, and we would rather you check them than take our word for anything on this site.
What We Raised and How We Spent It
In FY2023, our latest filed return, we raised $1,136,173 and spent $998,504. Of that spending, 98% ($981,891) went to programs and $16,613 to running UMMA, and nothing went to fundraising. Donations that arrive late in a year carry into the next year's work. Revenue grew 2x over FY2022 ($583,702 to $1,136,173).
How Funds Are Allocated
Program services (relief, farm, studio, Yala, Hope Bus, and UMMA Center) receive the majority of unrestricted donations. Each year's split between programs, running costs and fundraising is in Part IX of that year's Form 990, linked below, and the figures on this site are taken from it.
On the Word Audited
We do not claim an independent audit, because we have not published one. What is true today is that we file a public Form 990 every year and that anyone can read it. If that changes, this page will name the firm and the fiscal year.
