01What it does

What Ser Jobs for Progress Inc does

Mission

To eliminate the paradox of poverty in the midst of plenty in this nation and in others by helping all government agencies in opening up to everyone the opportunity to find work the opportunity for education and training and the the opportunity to live in decency and dignity.

As stated on its FY2022 Form 990.

Program

On its FY2021 return the organization reported a significant change in how it conducts a program.

The organization decided to liquidate Ser Jobs for Progress Inc., and in march 2022 the board of directors approved a plan for liquidation. There were no other parties that could block the execution of the plan, and the likelihood that the entity would return from liquidation was remote. The organization began preparing its financial statements using liquidation basis of accounting as of june 30, 2022 which is the date that the entity had obtained all of the approvals required to make its plan of liquidation effective. The organization anticipates the liquidation period will be five months. The liquidation basis of accounting requires assets to be measured at the estimated amount for which they can be sold (may not be fair value) and liabilities be measured at the costs to be incurred through the end of liquidation period. In connection with the adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting, management made the following adjustments: 1) accrued compensation adjusted to zero from $57,349. 2) accrued liabilities adjusted to zero from $32,304. 3) estimated cost to liquidate adjusted to $5,241 from zero for costs until the end of liquidation period of $5,929 and a refund of $688. At the end of the liquidation period, the organization anticipates transferring the remaining cash to the national chapter.
