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)
- In 2025 we have increased education about the medicinal, nutritional, and utilitarian abundance of the desert in the climate adaptation and mitigation solutions it offers us, we have worked to increase desert ecology canopy coverage in 21 residential households and have worked with over 10 educators, and 700+ students from the middle school to university level. Additionally, we held 31 community events, engaged 5000 plus Sonoran desert residents through our community events, released our second publication on the barrio innovation approach, financially supported over 15 local emerging Arizona based artists in raising awareness about environmental issues, and organized our two annual environmental resource fairs, Teatrico AZ(LAND) and Tierra Madre for the community. This year were on track to continue and expand on that work. We have recently installed our Shades of Resilience Structure, highlighting the impact of urban heat islands and are growing our partnerships as we support a local collective Protectors of the Salt River an Indigenous led award winning environmentally focused group working to steward and protect the Rio Salado River.
