What they do
IN THE PAST, TIC HAS SPOTLIGHTED OVER 30 DIFFERENT COUNTRIES, SOME MULTIPLE TIMES. THESE SPOTLIGHTS HAVE LED to THE ADDITION of SIGNIFICANT BIRMINGHAM CULTURAL ASSETS, SUCH AS VALUABLE ACQUISITIONS FROM ITALY and SOUTH KOREA AT THE BIRMINGHAM MUSEUM of ART, THE MOROCCAN FOUNTAIN ON 5TH AVENUE NORTH IN DOWNTOWN BIRMINGHAM, and THE JAPANESE GARDEN TEA HOUSE AT THE BIRMINGHAM BOTANICAL GARDENS. TIC DID NOT SPOTLIGHT ANY COUNTRIES DURING 2017. CURRENTLY, THE ORGANIZATION is IN TRANSITION and is DETERMINING WHETHER to CONTINUE AS AN ORGANIZATION.
Should I give to this charity?
This record may have an IRS status problem. Do not give until you verify it.
Plain answer: A tax form cannot prove that a charity is doing good. It can show how the charity says it spent its money—and point out questions you should ask.
Basic facts we verified
IRS warning checkThere may be a problem with its nonprofit status. Check before giving.

You can reach themThey list contact information, so you can ask questions.
Money made simple
Ask these three easy questions
- Who did you help? Ask for a recent story or report that shows real results.
- What will my money do? Ask exactly what your gift will pay for.
- Is this really the charity? Give only through its official website or confirmed phone number.
Worth asking: Expenses exceeded revenue by $4,713 this year. Ask whether that was planned or caused by a one-time event.
Bottom line: Do not decide from a name, mission statement, or tax status alone. Look at where the money went, then ask what changed, who was helped, and what your gift will do. YouCanGiveBack does not endorse or grade organizations.
Financial picture
A plain-language look at the latest Form 990 figures available. These numbers help you ask better questions; they do not, by themselves, rate whether a charity is good or bad.
How each $100 of revenue was used
The large number compares each expense with revenue. The smaller number shows its share of total expenses.
Expenses were greater than revenue, so the colored ring fills the available $100 and the total above 100% is shown below.
Money in and money out
Reported spending amounts
Mission work means the Form 990 category called program services. These are reported accounting categories—not an independent measurement of results.
