Mission and programs · 2024

• 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 2024 they collectively worked 3,755 hours. Together with volunteers, they removed 285,000 pounds of trash from public parklands, including 2,333 tires and 7,422 trash bags filled, and cut invasive vines from 1,837 trees.

  Expenses $138,005

• 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. These efforts support our volunteer and advocacy work while promoting anti-littering and waste reduction. He works with residents, property managers and city agencies to remedy trash pollution hot spots.

  Expenses $46,002

• VOLUNTEER PROGRAM - In 2024, Ward 8 Woods welcomed 464 volunteers at 31 volunteer events. Suitland Parkway Volunteer Days were held the first Saturday of each month, and Shepherd Parkway Community Clean-Ups every second Saturday. We also hosted eleven private groups bay special arrangement. These volunteers worked alongside our Park Stewards to remove more than a quarter of a million pounds of trash.

  Expenses $23,001

• SCHOOL GARDEN PROGRAM Our School Garden Coordinator leads approximately 25 children in grades PK through 5 in garden-based learning at a neighborhood public school. Students plant, water, weed, harvest, cook and eat vegetables, fruits, and herbs. Native wildflowers throughout the garden add color and attract bees and butterflies. The Garden Coordinator maintains the garden and shares vegetables with residents when school is not in session.

  Expenses $11,500

• ADVOCACY Our Executive Director is a forceful and effective advocate for environmental justice in Ward 8. He testifies at DC Council hearings, consults with DC Councilmembers and staff on legislation, and provides detailed recommendations on parks and planning. He speaks before groups and has been featured on many local online, print, radio and TV outlets.

  Expenses $11,500

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

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.

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.
