Overview
Mission
The JK12 Foundation was formed to honor the legacy of Joseph Kay by making grants to organizations that qualify as exempt organizations under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (Code).
What it reported doing in 2025
All of its activities will be in furtherance of that purpose and those activities will primarily include raising funds and awarding grants. Those activities will be conducted by officers, directors and other volunteers. One hundred percent of Applicant's time and expenses will be devoted to the grantmaking purpose. Applicant does not intend to limit its fundraising or grant making to any particular geography but expects to focus it efforts initially in the Mid-Atlantic region. Grants will be funded by donations.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 85% 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
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
