Form 990 for tax year 2022
Filed by SACRAMENTO TREE FOUNDATION INCORPORATED.
This return was superseded by a later amendment. matched by us It is kept because history is preserved rather than replaced.
What the amendment changed
Compared with the latest return for 2022 , filed 23 February 2025. matched by us Only the return's totals, a 990-PF's accounting method and the names listed in Part VII (Part VIII on a 990-PF) are compared. We relate returns by organization, tax year and form, and order them by each return's own timestamp; the filer's own "amended return" checkbox is a separate fact.
Those are the same on the two returns, so the amendment changed something else.

URBAN WOOD RESCUE:URBAN WOOD RESCUE: IN FY 2023 URBAN WOOD RESCUE OFFICIALLY OPENED FOR BUSINESS. HISTORICALLY THE URBAN TREES IN SACRAMENTO THAT WERE CUT DOWN WERE SENT TO THE DUMP, CHIPPED INTO MULCH, OR CUT INTO FIREWOOD. URBAN WOOD RESCUE ACTIVELY DIVERTS THESE BEAUTIFUL TREES FROM THE LANDFILL AND CONVERTS THEM INTO USABLE LUMBER SO THEY CAN CONTINUE PROVIDING BEAUTY AND BENEFITS TO THE COMMUNITY. SALVAGING AND REPURPOSING THIS WOOD ADDS A NEW DIMENSION TO SACRAMENTO\'S LEGACY AS THE CITY OF TREES AND GIVES A SECOND LIFE TO OUR TREES. CARBON SEQUESTRATION IS AN IMPORTANT CONSIDERATION IN MITIGATING CLIMATE CHANGE, BY TURNING THIS VALUABLE WOOD INTO USEABLE LUMBER, THAT CARBON CAN BE CAPTURED FOR MANY GENERATIONS WHILE ALSO UTILIZING A LOCAL RESOURCE THAT WOULD OTHERWISE BECOME TRASH. ALL PROCEEDS OF WOOD SALES SUPPORT THE WORK OF THE SACRAMENTO TREE FOUNDATION - EVERY PURCHASE HELPS US ACHIEVE OUR MISSION.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. 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. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
