-
Casey Tree Farm: Activities geared toward the production of trees and strengthening of Casey Trees' support network.
Expenses $1,949,732 · Grants $100 · Revenue $573,627
-
Education: Activities associated with the development, implementation and evaluation of tree-based education and training programs.
Expenses $1,127,696 · Grants $540,932 · Revenue $22,929
-
Communications & Development: The Communications and Development department connects people to trees, through trees, and to Casey Trees. The department achieves this by providing high-quality content, memorable experiences, outstanding customer service, and expanding the organization's support network. They complete activities that disseminate information about Casey Trees to encourage engagement in, and broad support, of its work.
Expenses $869,755
-
Policy & Land Conservation: Promotes tree-friendly urban design, preservation of land, and community action in support of our mission
Expenses $636,901 · Grants $159,464

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.
