Methodology
Pay Ratio: Calculated as executive compensation divided by the annualized federal minimum wage ($7.25/hour × 40 hours × 52 weeks = $15,080/year). When individual executive salary is available (from 990 Part VII), that figure is used; otherwise, total officer compensation (from 990 Part IX) serves as the basis.
Percentage Above Min Wage: The percentage by which reported compensation exceeds the federal minimum wage annual equivalent.
Data Source: IRS Form 990 filings, retrieved via the ProPublica Nonprofit Explorer API. Financial data from Parts I and IX; individual executive compensation from Part VII when available.
Applicability: Pay ratio metrics are calculated only for 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations, as they are required to publicly disclose compensation on Form 990.
Disclaimer: For educational and informational purposes only. This dashboard aggregates publicly available data from IRS Form 990 filings and third-party sources; figures may be incomplete, estimated, or out of date. Nothing here constitutes legal, financial, tax, or medical advice, or an endorsement or judgment of any organization or individual. Always verify with official filings and qualified professionals before relying on any figure.
