Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

WHF works with landowners and like-minded conservation groups throughout the State of Texas to create resilient prairie ecosystems that can consistently provide benefits and resist environmental changes. Every alliance receives a custom strategy for each site ranging from targeted treatment to full scale restoration of the site into a more natural state.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Wildlife Habitat Federation provides on the ground restoration, management and generational sustainability of prairie habitat for the conservation of soil, water, air and wildlife.

  • EDUCATION & OUTREACH: Wildlife Habitat Federation (WHF) works with like-minded organizations to achieve common goals, co-hosting education and outreach events with allied organizations to inform the public about land conservation practices, programs and benefits. On-site consultations provided landowners with technical guidance, and site evaluations were developed into conservation plans that outline a series of practices with the goal of providing measurable improvements of all natural resources present. WHF assisted landowners with enrollment in Farm Bill financial programs, participated in 61 conservation events given to public and private entities, went on 343 site visits with landowners, developed 75 conservation plans for 59,009 acres. Technical assistance was provided to 95 landowners for 199,908 acres.

    Expenses $1,215,649 · Revenue $1,175,427

  • ON-THE-GROUND IMPLEMENTATION: Execution of improved management practices outlined in conservation plans or through technical guidance such as planned grazing, prescribed burning, invasive species control, planting of cover crops and native rangeland plantings. On-the-ground implementation of conservation practices impacted 43,082 acres of land in 93 Texas counties.

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.

The four totals the IRS asks for on Part I of the Form 990, as filed. A dash means the figure was not present on the return — not that it was zero.

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.

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

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.
