Annual Report & Financial Transparency

Checkmate Community Inc is committed to operating transparently and accountably. Below is our most recent annual disclosure, fund-use breakdown, and program impact.

Fiscal year reported: 2025 · Updated: May 2026

IRS Filing Status

Checkmate Community Inc files Form 990-N (e-Postcard) with the Internal Revenue Service. Form 990-N is the required annual filing for 501(c)(3) organizations with gross receipts of $50,000 or less.

Our 501(c)(3) status is verifiable on the IRS Tax Exempt Organization Search. As our revenue grows beyond the 990-N threshold, we will transition to Form 990-EZ or Form 990 and publish full audited financial statements.

How Funds Are Used

Checkmate Community Inc operates a self-sustaining funding model. Revenue comes from two sources — paid subscriptions to the ActivityBuilder program and direct charitable donations — and is allocated across three categories:

Program Activities

~80%

The majority of every dollar funds direct program work:

  • Activity content development (research, design, professional editing)
  • Free and subsidized program access for under-resourced senior facilities
  • Platform hosting, infrastructure, and ongoing maintenance
  • Memory-care and dementia-specific activity development
  • Activity director training resources and peer community

Administration

~15%

Includes payment processing fees, accounting, IRS compliance filings, legal services, banking fees, and required nonprofit administrative overhead.

Fundraising & Outreach

~5%

Donor communications, mission outreach, and program awareness — kept intentionally lean so the maximum percentage of revenue goes to program work.

Allocations are directional and reflect our operating model. Specific dollar amounts are reported in our annual IRS Form 990-N filing. As our revenue grows above the $50,000 990-N threshold, we will publish full Form 990 financial statements.
