This return was superseded by a later amendment.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 19 May 2023. 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.

Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

Ward 8 Woods Conservancy works to rejuvenate and enhance the beauty, ecological health, and public enjoyment of the more than 500 acres of forest in the Ward 8 section of Washington, DC. We engage residents as paid staff and as volunteers to restore the woodland ecology, build trails, and promote healthy and sustainable living. We use the woods as a tool for healing and empowerment.

  • PARK STEWARD PROGRAM - The Park Steward program provides income, meaningful work and paid training to residents who face barriers to employment. Park Stewards undo decades of neglect of the parks in Ward 8 by removing trash and invasive species. In 2020 they collectively worked 2,155 hours. Together with volunteers, they removed 262,000 pounds of trash from public parklands, including 1,858 tires and 5,539 trash bags filled, and cut invasive vines 1,182 trees. Stewards also completed paid training in first aid, invasive species identification and removal, and trail natural surface maintenance.

    Expenses $194,246

  • VOLUNTEER PROGRAM - In 2022, Ward 8 Woods welcomed 227 volunteers at 35 volunteer events. Ft. Stanton Park Volunteer Days were held the first Saturday of each month, and Shepherd Parkway Community Clean-Ups every second Saturday. In addition, we had five specially arranged groups that worked at other times. At all of these events, volunteers worked alongside our Park Stewards to remove more than a quarter of a million pounds of trash.

  • Community Outreach Program/#CleanItClaimIt -Our Community Outreach Coordinator spreads awareness about the organization and its work. He canvasses areas where our Park Stewards and volunteers are doing cleanup, maintains our social media presence, and tables at community events. He recruits and supports residents who adopt wooded areas by their homes. These efforts support our volunteer, advocacy programs as well as fundraising.

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.
