Most recent filing on fileFY 2017

The IRS Form 990 for FY 2018 is due ~Nov 15 of the year after the fiscal close, followed by 3–6 months of IRS processing and 6–12 months before the cleaned data is published. FY 2018 should begin appearing here around mid-to-late 2019. A gap between today and the latest filing does not mean the org hasn't filed.

Attestations & Audits

Org-supplied disclosures that have been verified by the Ihsan Standard Editorial Council. Every standard has a Gold tier (★) reached via an Ihsan Standard or accepted third-party audit. An empty section means the org has not yet filled it in — not that they fail the standard.

Filing observations & context

1 concerning

Specific datapoints from Islamic Community Of Akron Inc's most recent IRS Form 990 that warrant a closer look. Each item is computed directly from the org's own public filing — we explain what the datapoint is, what it might mean, and the legitimate reasons it could be present. Read these as context, not conclusions.

  • Board-count mismatch on the filing
    concerning

    Part I reports 0 voting board members but Part VII lists 3 officers/directors.

    What this means

    Part I of the Form 990 (the cover section) lists zero voting board members, while Part VII (the officer-and-director roster on a later page) names three or more individuals serving as officers or directors.

    Why it matters (and what it might not mean)

    These two sections of the same return should agree. When they don't, it's most often a clerical filing error and reconciles in the next year. Worth noting because the cover-section field is what regulators and rating services scrape first, so a zero there can quietly affect downstream classifications.

Where the money went · FY 2017

Form 990 Part IX (Statement of Functional Expenses) split into the four functional buckets, plus automated anomaly detection across the most-asked donor questions.

Expense breakdown · FY 2017

Total $1K

Form 990 Part IX line items we have on file for this filing (compensation totals + fundraising lines). The full functional-expense col-A/B/C/D split (grants, program, admin, fundraising) was not in the structured extract — the residual sits in “Program & operations” below. Reading note: compensation is NOT the same as “admin overhead” — for orgs running clinics (like IMAN’s FQHC), schools, or in-house programs, most of compensation is program work.

    Total expenses minus compensation and fundraising — the residual covering program supplies, occupancy & utilities, professional fees, beneficiary services, medical supplies (for clinics), travel, equipment, and depreciation. ProPublica's structured extract did not include the Part IX functional split for this filing year; the breakdown PDF reconciles which specific lines went where.

Fundraising efficacy · not the primary lens for this org

Islamic Community Of Akron Inc reports $0 in contributions on only $0 of fundraising spend — a ratio that suggests this org isn't fundraising-driven in the conventional sense. The Form 990 “fundraising expense” line item is meant to capture solicitation costs (telemarketing, direct mail, digital ad spend); for universities, masjids, foundations, and orgs primarily supported by major gifts or program revenue, that line is small or zero, and the resulting “ratio” reads as meaningless.

The right operational-efficiency lens for an org like this is reserves, payroll composition, and program-expense ratio — see the financial-anomalies section and the multi-year trend dashboard.

Items worth a closer look

Automated checks across Form 990 Part IX and Part VII Section B. We publish the math and the source; we do not adjudicate intent. Many of these have legitimate explanations specific to the org’s mission — read each card’s context note before forming a judgment. The org has full right of reply.

1 notable
  • Thin operating reserve

    0.0 moNotable

    Months of reserve in FY 2017: 0.0. Best-practice nonprofit governance treats 3 months as the lower bound, 6–12 months as a healthy range.

    ContextThin reserves make orgs fragile to a single bad fundraising year. Pass-through grant-makers and acute-relief orgs sometimes run this tight by design.

    Source: Net assets ÷ (total expenses ÷ 12)

Engagement-track path:if a specific explanation fits the org (new-org ramp, capital campaign, FQHC medical-staff payroll, multi-year grant schedule), the org can sign in, attach the supporting filing detail, and a contextual note will publish alongside the relevant card. The numbers stay — the reader gets the reasoning.

Ethical supplier stack — not yet scanned

scan pending

We have not yet run the public-website vendor scan for Islamic Community Of Akron Inc. A blank section here is not evidence of a clean supplier stack — it means we don’t have data yet.

Coverage as of today: ~6 / 1,917 cohort orgs scanned. The Ihsan Standard rendered-site scanner is being rolled out across the cohort; the Supplier-Stack Audit (engagement track) covers vendors that don’t appear in public HTML at all (CRM, accounting, ad-tech back-office).
