Overview

Mission

Earth Stewardship Alliance is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization whose mission is to promote the good stewardship of Earth's environment and animals in a manner that is grounded in conservative principles.

What it reported doing in 2024

Earth Stewardship Alliance educated members of the general public on energy policies that would enhance customer choice and lower barriers to clean energy resources. Such reforms would reduce pollution. The number of people who would benefit is large, but difficult to determine precisely.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% 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. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
