$33,436 spent100% of program spendingWhite Sulfur Springs Ranch Living history School days:The program provides both a natural history environment and a living history opportunity given the remaining structures on the ranch property. The program had its debut in 2012 when almost 50 3rd grade students from C.R. Carmichael Elementary School in Portola were bused to the ranch where they participated in hands-on activities learning about life on the ranch in 1858. Students learned about blacksmithing and how important that skill was in maintaining ranch property. They also performed laundry activities, engaged in leather repairs, built wooden fruit boxes, played games, learned about native americans that lived in the Mohawk Valley in the 1800's and learned about the environment on the ranch that is still rich today.
The 2 programs described on its FY2024 Form 990, listed largest first by expense. Program spending in total: $33,436.
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 2019 to 2020, from $1.3M to $1.7M (+27%).
How it's funded, over time

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.
Who funds it, year by year

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
93% 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 MOHAWK VALLEY STEWARDSHIP COUNCIL.

Where its funders are
93% of MOHAWK VALLEY STEWARDSHIP COUNCIL'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 $4k that is directly attributable, 70% of it comes from California funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $52k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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.
