How much does the arts mean to you?
It's no joke! Arizona Gives Day is just one day away! Don't be fooled, you can make a donation early in support of your favorite Arizona nonprofit. You don't have to wait until April 2! You can make a positive impact for youth artists with a donation to Cultural Coalition. A gift of $50-$100 enables us to hire local Latiné and BIPOC artists to come to our after school arts program and festivals to lead hands-on art activities with the artists of tomorrow. Painting, dancing, storytelling, and music instruction are just a few of the opportunities we provide to youth of all ages. We bring these free arts opportunities to underserved communities throughout Arizona thanks to your support! Gift the gift of art today! https://lnkd.in/g-ueCFrs . . . . . . . #azgivesday #arizonagives #supportnonprofits #aznonprofits #supportthearts #supportlocalartists #azartists

Excuse me, The PRSA Foundation… but $130,000 in relation to *what*? The Better Business Bureau’s “standard seeks to assure donors that the majority of a charity’s activities (defined as 65% of a charity’s total expenses in the past fiscal year) are directed to its program services.” Transparency is not the PRSA Foundation’s forte. Consequently, this GuideStar link to the Foundation’s IRS Form 990 filing (2021) from two years ago is the most recent one we have documenting the Foundation’s % of expenses actually dedicated to its stated “diversity” mission. In 2021, only 41% ($60,913) of total expenses ($146,700) were dedicated to grants / scholarships. In 2020, only 23% ($65,506) of total expenses ($277,233) were thus dedicated. “Other” expenses are largely used to prop up the PRSA, Inc., business league, which lost well into the seven figures in member dollars for the same time period. When I asked questions in 2020 of CFO Philip Bonaventura and then-Foundation President Joe Cohen about what was going on, I was stonewalled for months and then retaliated against. It is my view that the PRSA Foundation’s tax-exempt status should be audited. https://lnkd.in/gJDygPpT.
