What it reported doing in 2025

Peter Clouse and Zach Clouse asked Patriot Hills back in 2023 for our help with a special project that they were working on. The Adjutant General (TAG) presented a Post Humous Award to the Family of PVT John Greschiak. John was a War Hero. He served with the 47th Infantry Battalion Armored Division that was Killed in Action on September 16th, 1944 in Germany. The entire story was such a beautiful gesture Mr. Zach Clouse who works at News Channel 13 story was selected and awarded an Emmy for his and his father's story. In October 2025, Patriot Hills were asked for help again by Peter and Zach are working on another story exploring the work of the National Guard's involvement in 80 years ago. The Michigan National Guard had one of the highest percentage of World War II. Patriot Hills will serve as their fiscal responsibility for this Humanitarian Outreach and Educational Research.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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 reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
