Overview
Mission
Survival of the whitetail deer in northern Maine
What it reported doing in 2025
We purchase and plant both trees and food plots for whitetail deer. This involves 2000-3000 trees and 50-100 acres of food plots each year
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- Distribution model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filed totals do not add up and liabilities are high compared with assets.
