We strive for full transparency in all PEO fundraising. Each year, a licensed CPA files our required annual return (Form 990EZ or Form 990N) with the IRS on behalf of Parnassus Enrichment Organization. The IRS is responsible for all official reporting and public record processing. Please note that IRS public search tools only display digitized Form 990 data for organizations that filed a full Form 990, Form 990PF, or Form 990EZ and had gross receipts of $50,000 or more.

Because PEO’s gross receipts have been under $50,000, our filings are processed by the IRS but are not included on those public search websites. However, because we value full transparency, any parent is welcome to request copies of our returns. These can be obtained through our CPA:
