Mission and programs · 2024

• Scientific Data and Methods: NatureServe provides the trusted science that conservation depends on. Working with expert partners across North America, we collect and analyze data on plants, animals, and ecosystems--especially those most at risk. Our science helps identify where species live, what threats they face, and which places need protection most urgently, so conservation dollars and actions can be targeted where they make the greatest difference.

  Expenses $2,731,223 · Revenue $2,114,041

• Conservation Products and Services: NatureServe turns complex biodiversity data into practical tools and information anyone can use. We maintain the most comprehensive information available on more than 100,000 species and ecosystems and share it through free and subscription-based tools like NatureServe Explorer. These products help land managers, governments, businesses, researchers, and the public understand what species exist, where they are found, and how they are doing--supporting smarter conservation and development decisions.

  Expenses $1,756,948 · Revenue $1,359,925

• Technology Research, Development, and Data Management: NatureServe builds and maintains the technology that powers modern conservation. Our core system helps states and provinces track and map rare and threatened species and ecosystems, supporting environmental review and land-use planning across North America. We continuously improve this technology and are exploring new tools, including artificial intelligence, to speed up assessments and get critical information into the hands of decision-makers faster.

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. 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. 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. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

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.
