ProPublica Nonprofit Explorer's digitised reproduction of a voluntarily filed IRS Form 990 for Buddhist Tzu Chi Foundation (EIN 94-2952782), the US headquarters organization of Tzu Chi. The IRS designates this organization a church and does not require it to file, but a Form 990 covering the fiscal year ended 31 December 2023 was voluntarily filed and processed 1 November 2024: total revenue 35,345,294 US dollars, total expenses 35,830,187 US dollars. This is the US headquarters organization's own figure, distinct from the foundation's global, Taiwan based network statistics recorded elsewhere on this page.

Reliability Tier1
Classed audited accounts rather than government registry, the same basis as this atlas's other ProPublica-reproduced Form 990 sources: the totals are drawn from the organisation's own independently audited financial statements, and ProPublica is reproducing the filed document rather than an independent regulatory register.
