MONTESSORI IN MOTION
EIN 91-1080903 · Education (B21Z)
What they do
At Montessori In Motion, We Believe That Each Child is A Unique Individual With Unknown Potential. Children Are Born With A Drive to Develop Themselves. They Learn Best From Their Own Physical Activity and Senses If Given The Freedom to Discover, Explore, and Create In An Enriched Environment With Supportive Guidance Based On The Observation of The Individual Childs Interests and Needs. The Method of Education Used At MIM Follows Those Principles Laid Down By Dr. Maria Montessori In The Early 1900s, With An Open-ended Approach That Encourages Innovation and Growth. Learning Needs to Be Integrated, Comprehensive, and Based On The Reality of The Childs World. Educational Experiences Must Vary In Kind and Degree In Order That Each Childs Unique Potential is Challenged.
Should I give to this charity?

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.
Pay context: The highest compensation shown in this filing is $93,702 for TONYA M MAY (VICE PRESIDENT). Compare pay with organizations of similar size and complexity.
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.
Gray means reported revenue left after expenses for this filing year. It does not necessarily mean cash sitting in a bank account.
Has the pattern changed?
Colored bars = expense mix: how each year’s expenses were divided. Total expenses vs. revenue shows whether the charity spent less or more than it received. The current filing is first.
Money in and money out
Reported spending amounts
