What D&R Greenway Land Trust Inc does
Mission
D&r greenway land trust's mission is to preserve and care for land, and to inspire a conservation ethic, now and forever.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Permanent protection of land is the heart of d&r greenway's mission. This work is guided by a strategic plan and evaluation of lands to ensure they meet key criteria including, among others: protection of wildlife and bird habitat, migratory corridors, biodiversity, agricultural soils and scenic views; contribution to water quality along a waterway or in a key aquifer; opportunity to provide for public accessibility and connecting trails; and community conservation. The majority of protected lands and conservation and agricultural easements are purchased in partnership with government partners, other conservation nonprofits and with private support. D&r greenway has established a revolving land fund with private contributions toward this purpose. Through stewardship and protection of these lands, d&r greenway provides a public benefit including a healthy environment, local foods, recreational opportunities and quality of life for area residents and visitors.

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 2020 to 2021, from $82M to $94M (+15%).
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.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 27% · 2018 34% · 2019 22% · 2020 2% · 2021 6% · 2022 3% · 2023 22% · 2024 9%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
68% of D&R GREENWAY LAND TRUST INC’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (88% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 15 funders to 18 funders, grant income rose $213k → $316k.
10 of 42 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 58% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of D&R GREENWAY LAND TRUST INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 42 funders by total. Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
D&R GREENWAY LAND TRUST INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 50% of grant income and the top three 72%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
70% 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 D&R GREENWAY LAND TRUST INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 35% · 2018 32% · 2019 91% · 2020 28% · 2021 65% · 2022 55% · 2023 35% — broadly stable.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
43% of D&R GREENWAY LAND TRUST INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 60% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
58% of D&R GREENWAY LAND TRUST INC's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $3.1M that is directly attributable, 91% of it comes from funders outside New Jersey, across 11 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $4.3M arriving through sponsors registered in 8 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
