What West Maui Preservation Association does
Mission
Preserving the natural physical environment of the west maui and north beach community through public enhancement projects. Because west maui is undergoing tremendous development and changes, government agencies have generally not been able to keep up with the community's needs for public recreational facilities, environmental protection, protection of shoreline and nearshore areas for public, regional drainage, traffic impacts and other important public and cultural needs. The organization has opposed specific development projects and obtained significant concessions in the public interest which have provided for public needs stated above. This organization has also enhanced public education, and directly implemented community betterment projects.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.

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 $342k to $167k (−51%).
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.
100% of WEST MAUI PRESERVATION ASSOCIATION’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (77% for the typical peer).
