Financial health

We do not score finances when yearly spending is very small or the return has too little detail. The ratios stop meaning much at that size.

Governance

This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

Programs described in its return (1)
  1. SAVE THE BEES FOUNDATIONSave The Bees Foundation has a goal to become a Nevada 501(3)(c) non-profit corporation that organizes and funds bee research, environmental restoration, and streamlining funding to other organizations taking action to better our bees and our environment.From the beginning weve been working to leave a positive impact on our planet. Over the last decade, members of our team have worked in commercial agriculture to help produce over 100 million pounds of food, alongside income for the working people in the beekeeping industry, and most importantly, over the last 5 years have been investing into bee research and technology.We raise awareness on pollinators while advocating for more bee research and environmental restoration. Our goal is to create solutions that will allow bee populations to remain sustainable. Each donation we receive will go towards funding bee research and environmental restoration.Members of our team and volunteers within the foundation will have backgrounds in agriculture, agronomy, beekeeping, chemistry, conservation biology, earth science, environmental engineering, forestry, geology, sustainability, wildlife ecology and more.Our foundation will organize various community projects to restore environmental habitats around the United States of America upon approvals from private landowners and government officials. Additionally we will advocate for modern practices of environmental sustainability within agricultural, commercial, and residential properties. Everyone can take part in saving the bees.We will partner with numerous organizations throughout the nation that show successful efforts in commercial honey bee research, native and wild bee research, native and wild bee conservation, forest restoration and habitat conservation.Our efforts will reach beyond just saving the bees, we want to create sustainability within all types of ecosystems found in the United States of America. We believe the pollinators are one of the foundation pieces in an ecological habitat. Without pollen and nectar which comes from plants and trees, bees cannot survive. Without pollinators, non self-fertilizing species of plants and trees cannot survive. With this in mind, we believe that within saving the bees, we need to look at the entire ecosystem, to make sure it has all the pieces it needs for the entire habitat to survive. We hope to be able to look back in 20 years at the seeds we planted for them to grow into trees taller than we could imagine, surrounded by bees with plenty of food for them provided by the plants we planted.
