What Phoenix Landing Foundation does
Mission
Mission Statement (continued): veterinary students and standards for care of breeders, pet stores, and welfare organizations.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
At the end of 2025, 3,598 birds had entered our adoption program. We commit to lifetime protection for these birds, no matter how many homes they may need through us across their long lives.
$344,015 spentof which $7,645 as grants$28,767 earned by the program100% of program spendingIn the area of education, Phoenix Landing hosted 14 Zoom events with special guest speakers in 2025. We also provide two core parrot-care classes online every month. All these online events are available to anyone worldwide, and the recordings are available in perpetuity on our website. Lastly, we hosted an all-day educational event in collaboration with two other welfare organizations - Companion Parrots Rehomed (CPR) and the Rhode Island Parrot Rescue (RIPR).
Our conservation support for 2025 went to two parrot conservation groups in Brazil: Instituto Araras Azul and Buracas das Araras. These donations were made possible by those who went on our Brazil ecotour in September 2025. We also supported two parrot conservation groups in Costa Rica: The Macaw Recovery Network and Rescate Rescue Center. These donations were made possible by those who went on our Costa Rica ecotour in January 2025. We also were a sponsor of the Psittacine Congress in 2025.

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 $1.6M to $1.9M (+22%).
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: 2021 2%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
71% of Phoenix Landing Foundation’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (86% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 8 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.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base held at 2 funders, grant income fell $7k → $2k.
5 of 13 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 81% 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 Phoenix Landing Foundation’s funders (the co-funder graph). 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
Phoenix Landing Foundation has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 18% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
81% 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 Phoenix Landing Foundation.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 86% · 2019 100% · 2020 81% · 2021 79% · 2022 92% · 2023 90% — growing more concentrated.
“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
33% of Phoenix Landing Foundation's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 15% 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
81% of Phoenix Landing Foundation'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 $7k that is directly attributable, 97% of it comes from funders outside North Carolina, across 7 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $32k arriving through sponsors registered in 5 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.
Against its field
Phoenix Landing Foundation holds deeper cash reserves than three-quarters of the 6,435 animals nonprofits its size.
