Mission

TO ACQUIRE A PROPERTY OF 215 ACRES ALONG M-22 IN LEELANAU TOWNSHIP TO CREATE A PUBLICALLY ACCESSED NATURE PRESERVE ALONG SIDE A SUBPARCEL OF 24 ACRES FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING.

  • NEW COMMUNITY VISION (NCV) HAS LED A SUCCESSFUL, TWO-YEAR CAMPAIGN TO PRESERVE OVER 200 ACRES BETWEEN OMENA AND NORTHPORT. THE PURCHASE WAS COMPLETED DECEMBER 24, 2024. NCV ACKNOWLEDGES WITH GRATITUDE OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH THE GRAND TRAVERSE BAND OF OTTAWA AND CHIPPEWA INDIANS (GTB) THAT MEANS THE MAJORITY OF THIS HISTORIC LAND IS NOW OWNED AND STEWARDED BY THE GTB AS A NATURE PRESERVE. AS PLEDGED, NCV HAS RETAINED 25 ACRES FOR RIGHT-SIZED, ATTAINABLE HOUSING TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE NEEDS OF OUR COMMUNITY. WE ARE CURRENTLY WORKING WITH PENINSULA HOUSING TO MOVE THIS PLAN FORWARD. NCV'S PARTNERSHIP WITH GTB SECURED A $6.5 MILLION FEDERAL GRANT. AN ADDITIONAL $3.5 MILLION CAME FROM MORE THAN 300 INDIVIDUALS, FOUNDATIONS, AND REGIONAL ORGANIZATIONS. THE $10 MILLION RAISED SECURES THE FUTURE OF THIS PROPERTY.

    Expenses $3,377,347

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.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 26 October 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 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.
