Overview

Mission

Protection of Endangered Species

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this foundation funds its work.
Distribution model
No current program activity. The filing reports no charitable disbursements for the current year.

The verdict

MIXED - A large share of available resources goes to charitable grants and the filing clearly reports transactions involving insiders. The filing does not identify all grant recipients and some filed totals do not add up.
