What National Deer Association Group Return does
Mission
See schedule owith members in all 50 states and canada, the national deer association(nda) works closely with hunters, landowners, wildlife agencies and other conservationists to improve deer herds and hunter satisfaction on millions of acres of public and private land. The goals and activities of nda are accomplished with its staff and extensive volunteer network. Given nda's history of using science and hunter ethics to guide sound deer management decisions, it is widely considered the most respected and influential deer conservation agency in north america.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
See schedule oin 2024, nda had a significant impact on policy that impacts deer, hunting, and conservation by sending 27 action alerts, authoring, or signing 50 letters of support or opposition, and encouraging more than 1,800 letters from our constituents. Nda addressed landscape-level access and forest health issues through the public lands initiative by helping to improve 226,128 acres of public land in 20 states at a total value of $6,382,021. Nda continued to provide some of the best deer and habitat educational content in the world by publishing more than 150 combined articles and videos across our various platforms. More than 10 million people were reached through nda's social media channels alone. Nda held 54 field to fork events across 13 states to introduce 481 new people to hunting as part of our r3 initiatives while also graduating 376 new deer steward participants at various levels. Nda finished another strong financial year helped by securing a record number of corporate sponsors and conducting the organization's annual giving day.

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 2017 to 2018, from $795k to $1.3M (+62%).
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.
60% of NATIONAL DEER ASSOCIATION GROUP RETURN’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (86% for the typical peer).

Where its funders are
NATIONAL DEER ASSOCIATION GROUP RETURN draws 100% of its grant income from funders outside Georgia, across 1 state in all.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $268 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
