  • Community Solutions (CS) - In 2022 we expanded our focus work to protect wetland forests through the community conservation model which is an inclusive and strategic approach of expanding wetland conservation, community organizing and environmental justice throughout the US South. We continue to work to protect wetland forests in the US South that span nearly 35 million acres across 14 states and are critical for community health and safety. - Our community conservation model is advancing forest conservation through the lens of environmental justice. Working in partnership with impacted communities in climate- vulnerable locations, our work uses social and economic indicators, not just environmental, to define the conservation priorities. Our goal is to advance a non- extractive, regenerative economy that is based on ecological restoration, community protection, equitable partnerships, and justice. - Our work in SC with the Pee Dee Indian Tribe and New Alpha Community Development Corporation in the Pee Dee Watershed has created a new narrative and strategy for advancing equity in protecting forests as a climate solution with community economic benefits. Against a backdrop of a Southern culture that has largely accepted the "working forest" landscape, Dogwood and our local partners are charting a new course that puts community-led forest protection at the center of our conservation agenda. We've developed a close working relationship with the SC Conservation Bank regarding leveraging state funds to purchase hundreds of acres of forests in the Pee Dee watershed, to be owned by the community and set aside for natural flood control and outdoor recreation. We supported the Pee Dee Tribe in developing and promoting their cultural, nature and outdoor recreation center and purchase of additional wetland forests.

The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
