Overview

Mission

Section 501(c)(3) D-Day 2044 is a non-profit, non-partisan organization whose mission is to engage high school students across America to ensure that we do not forget the people who saved the World on June 6, 1944 when the Allies invaded Europe on "D-Day".

What it reported doing in 2024

The organization engages students by supporting social studies teachers with topical curriculum that meets local standards and goes beyond memorization of names, dates and places to help our future leaders develop skills like critical thinking, problem-solving, decision-making, teamwork and creativity that were the building blocks of one of the greatest achievements in World history.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
