Profile

Empower Work is on a mission to create healthier, more equitable work spaces where people are supported, valued, and empowered. We believe that when people thrive at work, communities, companies, the economy, and our democracy, thrive. To reach that, we need to dramatically shift cultural norms and expectations within workplaces. And we need to radically transform how we support people at critical, opportunity-altering moments. Our approach fuels positive change in three key ways: 1) Our text line provides immediate, confidential support for under-represented and under-resourced workers, with emotional and economic outcomes that keep them on an opportunity pathway. 2) Our trained peer counselors utilize their training and skill development in thousands of U.S. workplaces, and 3) Aggregate, anonymous data and storytelling from the conversations can inform new approaches, tools, trainings, and policies and change narrative norms for systemic workplace change.

Financial Statement Notes

Part X : FIN48 Footnote

Income Taxes Empower Work Inc is organized as California nonprofit corporation and has been recognized by the IRS as exempt from federal income taxes under IRC Section 501(a) as organizations described in IRC Section 501(c)(3), qualify for the charitable contribution deduction under IRC Sections 170(b)(1)(A)(vi) and (viii), and has been determined not to be private foundations under IRC Sections 509(a)(1) and (3), respectively. Empower Work Inc is annually required to file a Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax (Form 990) with the IRS. Empower Work Inc is not required to file an Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return (Form 990-T) because it had no unrelated business taxable income for the year ended December 31, 2024. Empower Work Inc has received notification from the Internal Revenue Service and the State of California that it qualifies for tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and Section 23701d of the California Revenue and Taxation Code. The exemptions are subject to periodic review by the federal and state taxing authorities and management is confident that Empower Work Inc continues to satisfy all federal and state statutes in order to qualify for continued tax exemption status.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0Income Taxes Empower Work Inc is organized as California nonprofit corporation and has been recognized by the IRS as exempt from federal income taxes under IRC Section 501(a) as organizations described in IRC Section 501(c)(3), qualify for the charitable contribution deduction under IRC Sections 170(b)(1)(A)(vi) and (viii), and has been determined not to be private foundations under IRC Sections 509(a)(1) and (3), respectively. Empower Work Inc is annually required to file a Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax (Form 990) with the IRS. Empower Work Inc is not required to file an Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return (Form 990-T) because it had no unrelated business taxable income for the year ended December 31, 2024. Empower Work Inc has received notification from the Internal Revenue Service and the State of California that it qualifies for tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and Section 23701d of the California Revenue and Taxation Code. The exemptions are subject to periodic review by the federal and state taxing authorities and management is confident that Empower Work Inc continues to satisfy all federal and state statutes in order to qualify for continued tax exemption status.
