Since our volunteers paid for their expenses and the CEO performed all administrative tasks with the assistance of other officers and volunteers, the only expenses were the unavoidable $1396 in purchase fees and the $6788 in costs for distributing approximately $148,000 in goods and services. 100% of the contributions the Company received for purchasing goods and services for Ukrainians was used for purchasing goods and services for Ukrainians, including clothing, household goods, toys and games for children, hygiene products, medical equipment, home generators, kitchen appliances and cabinets, preserved food, school supplies, other basic supplies and an ambulance that is now being used for rescue operations in the conflict zone. In providing these goods and services, our volunteers worked with and now have excellent relationships with several refugee centers in Kraków and with other humanitarian aid groups that assisted with distribution efforts, including Kidsave, Youth With A Mission and UAid Direct. We intend to work with them again in 2024. 8184 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 0 0 0 false false false false false false false false false false false false false false 0 0 0 0 false false 0 0 false false false false X 13 8 true false false false false false false true false true false false true true true false false false NY X Joseph Cyr 9174994213 59 Argyle Avenue Babylon NY 11702 Lauren Kondi Chairperson 0.20 X X 0 0 0 Elizabeth Cyr Senor VP of Operations 5.00 X X 0 0 0 Joseph Cyr CEO and Treasurer 10.00 X X 0 0 0 Mark Rocky Maurino VP of Marketing 3.00 X X 0 0 0 Cameron Lindsay Secretary and VP of NGO Relations 3.00 X X 0 0 0 Taylor Gaynor VP of Communications and Technology 3.00 X X 0 0 0 Challen Hodson VP of Planning and Logistics 3.00 X X 0 0 0 John Bayard Director 3.00 X 0 0 0 Catherine Cyr Director 2.00 X 0 0 0 Ruth Bayard Director 3.00 X 0 0 0 Chris Korte Director 0.20 X 0 0 0 Jane Quinn Director 2.00 0 0 0 Jamie Novogrod Director 2.00 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 false false false 0 0 0 0 0 0 161091 0 161091 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 161091 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 147898 147898 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Purchase Fees (transfer and foreign fees) 1396 1396 0 0 Costs for distributing goods 6788 6788 0 0 0 0 0 0 156082 156082 0 0 5178 10187 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 5178 10187 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 5000 5000 0 0 0 0 0 0 5000 5000 0 0 0 0 X 178 5187 0 0 0 0 178 5187 5178 10187 5009 0 0 0 0 0 X false false false false false X 0 0 0 0 57939 161091 219030 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 57939 161091 219030 219030 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 219030 0 X 1.00000 1.00000 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Europe (Poland) 0 0 Program Services Goods Distribution 70000 R Neighbor (Ukraine) 0 0 Program Services Goods Distributed 77898 0 0 0 0 0 0 147898 0 147898 false false false false false false PART I, LINE 3f These amounts are estimates based on estimates of the amount of goods that were delivered to Ukrainian refugees in Poland, the amount of goods that were transported from Poland into Ukraine and the amount of goods that were purchased in Ukraine and delivered to Ukrainians living in Ukraine. Joseph Cyr Dir, CEO, Treasurer Cash Flow X 5000 5000 false false true 5000 PART I, LINE 1 During 2023, PlebeianHelpers Inc. (also "the Company", also known as "PH") raised $161,091 In cash from the public and coordinated a trip by 25 volunteers to Poland and Ukraine during August 17 through September 1, 2023 to purchase goods for Ukrainian refugees in Poland and Ukrainians in need inside Ukraine. Some of our volunteers also provided construction and rehabilitation services for Ukrainians in Ukraine. We worked with several NGO partners, which included refugee centers in Kraków and NGOs that assisted in distributing goods purchased with our funds to Ukrainians throughout Ukraine. PH volunteers paid for their own travel, lodging and food. No Director, officer or volunteer received compensation or any benefit of any kind. There were no administrative costs of any kind. The CEO handled all administrative, marketing and fundraising activities with the significant assistance of the other officers and volunteers. See Report to Donors https://acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc:US:e84dde58-2982-4c2c-aa99-1cd24bbe0158 PART I, LINES 8-22 Current year: all contributions were deposited into PlebeianHelpers Inc.'s checking account. Line 8 reflects the total contributions that were reflected as credits to the account (after any platform payment fees) on and after January 1, 2023 and prior to January 1, 2024. Line 17 reflects expenses for purchase fees (transfer and foreign) of $1,396 and distribution costs of $6788 ($155 for extra luggage for transporting tourniquets; $6,633 in van rental costs, gas, parking, and decals for vans used to distribute goods) for a total amount of "Other expenses" of $8,184. Line 20 reflects the balance in the checking account as the total assets. (See X, 16) Past year: all contributions were deposited into PlebeianHelpers Inc.'s checking account. Line 8 reflects the total contributions that were reflected as credits to the account (after any platform payment fees) on and after January 1, 2022 and prior to January 1, 2023, except that line 8 does not include the $5000 loan that the CEO (Mr. Cyr) made to the company in August 2022. Line 17 reflects total expenses for purchase fees and distribution costs related to the vans that we used to distribute the goods. Note: 2022 was the first year of PlebeianHelpers Inc.'s existence and it therefore qualified for filing a 990-N(e-Postcard) because it's gross revenues of $57,939 were less than $60,000. The process used for completing the 990-N Form did not allow PlebeianHelpers Inc. to report anything other than "Gross Revenues Not Greater than $50,000." PART IX, LINE 3 The amount $147,898 of assistance reported equals the amount that was contributed ($161,091) minus (1)the fees and distribution costs associated with the purchase of the goods provided to the Ukrainian people ($8,184, see line 25) and (2) the change in the fund balance of $5,007. That matches with the total debits from the checking account ($156,082) minus the fees and distribution costs of $8,184. Part VI, Line 12c The Company did not enter any business transactions that conceivably could create a conflict of interest. During discussions among the Directors and volunteers, we constantly emphasized how we would proceed with the highest moral standards and that no one would take any action that would be contrary to the interests of the Company, its donors or its beneficiaries. No one ever did. Part VI, Line 19 The website provides that the governing documents and tax returns will be made available upon request. PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 2 Joseph and Elizabeth Cyr are married. Lauren Kondi and Catherine Cyr are their daughters. Cameron Lindsay is Joseph Cyr's daughter. All of them can be reached at PlebeianHelpers Inc.'s address even though the children have separate addresses. John and Ruth Bayard are married. PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 9 Mark (Rocky) Maurino, 43 Argyle Ave., Babylon, NY 11702; Challen Hodson, 1187 Keniston Ave., Los Angeles, CA90019; Taylor GaynorBedford Cove, San Rafael CA 94901; John and Ruth Bayard, 2708 Ion Street,Sullivans Island, SC 29482; Catherine Cyr, 1600 South StanleyAve., Los Angeles, CA90019; Chris Korte, 4 Rosebud Lane, Babylon, NY 11702; Jamie Novogrod, 1751 Buckingham Road, Los Angeles, CA 90019; Jane Quinn, 422 West Deming Place, Apt 4, Chicago, Ill 60614 PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11b The CEO read the instructions and prepared this Form based on the records he maintained before, during and after the trip in August 2023. He conferred with the volunteers during and after the trip regarding the expenses incurred for the Ukrainians served by their efforts. PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 14 The CEO has retained all the relevant documents from the two trips in 2022 and 2023. PART VII, SECTION A, LINE 1a, COLUMN B The average hours were very roughly estimated based on a rough estimate of the time devoted to recruiting volunteers, organizing and coordinating volunteer activities, communications and video meetings among volunteers, fund raising, preparation for the trip and the time spent during the trip divided by 50 weeks to estimate the approximate hours per week. PART VIII, LINE 1f All contributions were deposited into PlebeianHelpers Inc.'s checking account. The amount reported on this line reflects the total credits to that checking account during 2023. This includes money raised from 2 yard sales and an auction for admission to a Pickleball camp where the consideration advanced for the small amounts raised was de minimus. (Lines 1a and 8a are therefore reported as 0.) PART X, LINE 1 The amounts reported are the balances in the Company's checking account. The Company did not have any other assets. PART X, LINE 22 The $5000 loan is the loan from Mr. Cyr, the CEO, reported on schedule L. PART X, LINE 32 The amount reported for the net assets is the balance in the checking account minus the $5000 loan.
