Mission and programs · 2024

• Please see Schedule O: Public education utilizing multiple media outlets. This included newspaper ad buys in local newspapers, social media with Facebook and Instagram accounts, billboards, yard signs, and t-shirts. The message was to show the natural resources in the county and encourage citizens to protect them by ecotourism or youth education while avoiding economic options that would impede rural community growth. This included work with Appalachian Rekindling Project, a nonprofit providing opportunities for economic growth using traditional methods to restore surface mined land to agricultural use. Established a website that carries up-to-date news about developments in the area regarding the natural environmental and economic changes. The website includes video that were developed and posted on Facebook and Instagram and has sections describing Concerned Letcher Countians' goals. The website also includes quotes by local citizens about what they think would help the region grow and develop and whether they support or oppose particular projects. A survey and email message option allows visitors to the site to leave their contact information and their opinions and concerns. Invited a consultant who was a former Federal Bureau of Prisons Director to a meeting to educate those in attendance about how the FBOP prioritizes projects, how they view Letcher County as a site for a facility or not, and how citizens can best communicate concerns to the FBOP. This allowed local citizens to question and share concerns with a person who had been the highest office holder in the FBOP and to gain knowledge about how best to protect the community, including landowners who do not want to sell their land. This was a learning experience for members of the community.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 2 November 2026. The IRS publishes only each organization's most recent postcard, so earlier years are not shown. A 990-N carries no financial detail. The postcard also gives the principal officer's address, which is not shown here.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.
