Phoenix is on the board of directors for The Lunchbox Fund
This is outdated. The Lunchbox Fund’s current team page no longer lists Joaquin Phoenix on its board, and the nonprofit’s latest IRS-filed board data shows his directorship ended on August 19, 2024.
Full reasoning
This statement appears to be out of date.
The Lunchbox Fund’s current official team page lists its United States Board of Directors as Topaz Page-Green, Emmanuel Roman, Canice Prendergast, and Antar Thiam. Joaquin Phoenix is not listed there.
That matches the nonprofit’s latest IRS-derived Form 990 data in ProPublica’s Nonprofit Explorer, which lists "Joaquin Phoenix (Director (Until 8/19/24))" for the fiscal year ending December 2024. In other words, he previously served on the board, but the organization’s own current board roster and its most recent tax filing both indicate that he is no longer a director.
So the present-tense claim that he is on the board is incorrect; at most, it was true before August 19, 2024.
