Where the work happens

3 program services account for $63K of program spending, described in the organization's own filed words · FY2020.
01

Student Loan Repayment Program (SLRP). Most teachers graduate school with student loan debt, and Black men have significantly more debt than their white counterparts. This burden often leads men to leave the profession.

$50Kprogram expense
02

Student Teaching Stipend

Student teaching, required to earn a degree and become a licensed teacher, is a significant financial burden for students. Because this activity is full time, for a period of 12 to 16 weeks, it precludes the student from earning outside income from a full or part time job.

$8Kprogram expense
03

Teaching Internships

Black Men Teach provides paid internships to selected college students as a way to expose them to teaching as a career in anticipation that some will choose this as their vocation. Additionally, these interns provide a seldom seen Black male role model as an educational leader to the school's students.

The names, titles, and compensation shown on this page are reproduced from IRS Form 990 filings, which are public records.

Philanthropy.org does not alter the content of those filings. All information appears exactly as reported by the filing organization for the tax year shown.

We publish only information contained in the public IRS filing — and less than the filing contains. Our profile pages do not display street addresses, telephone numbers, personal email addresses, or other personal contact information, even where the filing includes them.

Many people share the same name. A name shown on this page reflects only what one organization reported in one IRS filing for one tax year. It should not be interpreted as identifying any other individual with the same or a similar name.

If you are no longer affiliated with the organization, your name will generally stop appearing in future IRS filings once the organization no longer reports you. Pages for tax years in which you were reported remain published because those filings remain part of the public record.

Philanthropy.org does not alter or remove IRS filing records. Removing a page from this website would not remove the underlying IRS filing, which remains publicly available from the IRS and other publishers of the same information.

If you believe the IRS filing itself is inaccurate, corrections must be made by the filing organization or the IRS directly.
