Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

TO PRESERVE AND IMPROVE THE WATER SUPPLY OF SPRINGFIELD, MO AND GREENE COUNTY, MO THROUGH EDUCATION

  • Managing the Fellows Lake marina program enables WCO to directly interact with people who are utilizing our water, which we are committed to keeping clean. WCO can promote increased education and stewardship activities with the people utilizing the lake.

    Expenses $278,053 · Revenue $238,142

  • The Watershed Conservation Corps WCC is dedicated to engaging and employing young people in hands-on watershed improvement. Based out of Springfield, Missouri, the WCC is available for hire year-round, though the number of members available may vary throughout the year. The crew can be contracted for projects ranging from a single day, several months or multiple years. Services include habitat restoration and improvement, vegetation management, and trail maintenance.

    Expenses $663,929 · Revenue $598,752

  • The Watershed Center strives to provide age appropriate, place-based, education about our water resources. Some groups come simply to enjoy the Park. Casual visitors can learn about the site through interpretive signage and kiosks located around the park. Often, school groups, professional groups, and community groups want a more formal experience like a field trip or workshop. The Watershed Committee employs an education and outreach coordinator to help such groups plan an educational experience at the Watershed Center.

    Expenses $170,898 · Revenue $1,604

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.

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

Taxable family

From Schedule R Parts I, III and IV: entities that legally are the filer, and taxable partnerships, corporations and trusts it is related to. These record ownership and control, not shared board members or money.

Disregarded entities on its 2024 return

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 13 October 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.

The registration facts above come from the IRS Business Master File published 13 October 2026 and read 29 October 2026, for every organization at once. Returns through tax year 2024, the newest we have parsed for this organization.
