Overview
Mission
Conservation of wildlife
What it reported doing in 2024
The organization received a $100,000 grant during the year to fund hawk research & publications. There is no donor-impose time restriction on the use of these funds. The balance remaining at year-end will be used for ongoing hawk research activities in subsequent years.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 95% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
