Mission and programs · 2025

Mission

Wildlife Preservation/Protection (D30)

  • Our sister organization in Peru became a recognized rescue center with the highest level of permitting - the first in Peru to specialize in carnivores. Since late 2020 we've helped the rescue and rehabilitation of over 100 wild animals and maintained a 97% reintroduction success rate. The newly built center we helped build is naturally integrated into the rainforest and powered by renewable energy and innovative sustainability systems. We've created novel methods for the rehabilitation of threatened and keystone species that increase reintroduction success. We've been instrumental in shutting down several illegal zoos and trafficking operations in conjunction with local and federal authorities. We are currently protecting over 3000 hectares of primary rainforest. We have helped to create dozens of local job opportunities, stimulating a conservation-based economy in Las Piedras. We have assisted dozens of local and international students in their studies and to gain practical conservation experience, supporting the next generation of conservationists. We've supported the acquisition of land for a dog/cat rescue center in Madre de Dios, that will focus on spay/neuter programs and disease prevention.

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.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 9 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.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 11 November 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
