01What it does

What Regeneration Vermont Inc does

Mission

Environmental education and advocacy

As stated on its FY2020 Form 990-EZ.

Program

Regeneration vermont continued our public education initiatives in 2020, reaching millions of citizens via our various publishing endeavors - social, web, video, print, radio and public speaking engagements. In addition to continuing to publish our own essays and commentaries on agricultural policies and practices, we worked with a number of journalists to develop articles relating to our mission to educate the public on the threats of - and alternatives to - industrial forms of agriculture, particularly "concentrated animal feeding operations (cafos)." in 2020, regeneration vermont published data and commentaries related to the extensive uese of pesticides and gmo's in dairy feed production, the relationship between cafos and water pollution, the treatment of the dairy industry's migrant labor workforce, antibiotic contanmination of the dairy supply, and the inequitable distribution of dairy-related capital.

The first program described on its most recent Form 990-EZ.

Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 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.

How it's funded, over time

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2020: the base narrowed from 2 funders to 1 funder, grant income fell $35k → $24k.

1 of 4 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 13% 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 REGENERATION VERMONT INC’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

REGENERATION VERMONT INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 43% of grant income and the top three 87%; half comes from just 2 funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left

45% 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 REGENERATION VERMONT INC.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $25k 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.
