Programs
Whole Community - Provide guidance, contacts, and input to help a documentary filmmaker create and share products about rural Montana communities.
$4,484 spentHealth - The vision for the BioRegions Health Program in Mongolia is to have a vigorous and sustainable exchange between Montana and Mongolia which builds capacity and capability for citizens to lead healthy lives. The objectives are 1) to identify critical weak links in the health care systems of both regions, and demonstrate sustainable prototype solutions to strengthen them, 2) to provide experiential learning and training opportunities for health care students and professionals, and 3) to demonstrate and provide community health education in conjunction with related programs dealing with environment, traditional knowledge, and entrepreneurship.
$16,158 spentEnvironment - BioRegions believes that a biologically complete, non-polluted, and well-functioning environment is essential for healthy people. Environmental management and improvement projects consist of studying, educating and demonstrating the local population on best practices for maintaining and growing their natural resources. BioRegions assist the Mongolian government in watershed planning and a group of Montana ranchers in holistic monitoring to improve management and share the results.
$29,856 spentTraditional Skills and Knowledge - The Traditional Skills and Knowledge Program supports the utilitarian skills needed to handle animals and provide for food, clothing and shelter. The BioRegions ARTISAN PROGRAM encourages training and marketing support for herders, homemakers, craftspeople like blacksmiths, ger makers, furniture makers, wool felt makers and clothing makers. Participants use traditional materials and design, but also evolve their crafts with modern materials and contemporary designs.

The 4 programs described on its FY2024 Form 990-PF.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2018 to 2019, from $60k to $82k (+37%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
100% of BIOREGIONS PROGRAM INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (65% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 5 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
57% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund BIOREGIONS PROGRAM INC.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.
