HOPE WorldWide 1997 Tax Return



This return is public information — anyone may request a copy from the
IRS and anyone may distribute unaltered copies of it.



Among other valuable information you can get from this return are the
names and addresses of the Board of Directors
(Form 990, Supporting Schedules, Page 8
and Page 9),
the names and salaries of key employees
(Form 990, Schedule A, Page 1),
and a fairly complete listing of HOPE assets and expenditures.



The tax return form includes the following reminder to those completing
it:

    “Form 990 is available for public inspection and, for some people, serves
    as the primary or sole source of information about a particular organization.
    How the public perceives an organization in such cases may be determined
    by the information presented on its return”.

that it will help the public perceive the nature of the organization.
