01What it does

What Responsible Preservation Inc does

Mission

The mission of Responsible Preservation, Inc. is to preserve and protect environmental and cultural assets in northwest Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and adjacent areas, with a specific focus on the Wissahickon Watershed that passes through southeast Montgomery County and northwest Philadelphia County. In addition to the preservation of historic structures and land areas, RPI shall seek to promote and develop land use and storm water controls, based upon the principles and techniques of "impact zoning" that can be applied on a watershed wide, multi-jurisdictional basis. In developing and evaluating impact zoning techniques, the controls and environmental parameters will include land-use, traffic, environmental (air quality, water quality and erosion and sedimentation) controls and standards as well as impact on birds and other migratory species.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.

Each line starts at 100 in 2022, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2022, 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.
