What The Jazz Mentors Foundation does
Program
The Jazz Mentors Foundation was established to encourage junior high, high school, and university student musicians to study and play jazz; encourage awareness and appreciation for jazz in our community; provide clinics for student musicians and concerts for our community. The foundation hosted a jazz concert series, with top tier jazz musicians, including local community talent. For each concert, the artist provides a workshop for high school, university, and junior high students, free of charge. In addition, high school, university, and junior high jazz students are invited to attend the concerts free of charge.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2023, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2023, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $104k to $72k (−31%).
Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
