What White Rock Lake Conservancy Inc does
Mission
The mission of the conservancy is to enhance the identity, beauty and safety of white rock lake in partnership with dallas parks & recreation and other neighborhood and lake volunteer groups, support the improvement of the hike and bike trails, buildings and park areas, and coordinate with other organizations with similar objectives.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
2024 celebration! White rock 5k/10k race - organized by the conservancy, net proceeds from event will fund costs of lake-area projects in partnership with city of dallas. Reported as fundraising event on schedule viii.
The conservancy raised funds for the stone table project through both solicitation of individual donors as well as through funds raised on north texas giving day and our annual race and festival. In 2024 we moved to the next phase of the stone table project and started to fundraise for the playground phase. We continue to raise funds for park projects, including the final phases of the stone table projects.

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 2022 to 2023, from $290k to $181k (−38%).
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.
89% of WHITE ROCK LAKE CONSERVANCY INC’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (18% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 5 funders, grant income fell $124k → $30k.
4 of 12 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 87% 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 WHITE ROCK LAKE CONSERVANCY 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
WHITE ROCK LAKE CONSERVANCY INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 67% of grant income and the top three 90%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
93% 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 WHITE ROCK LAKE CONSERVANCY INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 100% · 2019 95% · 2020 59% · 2021 56% · 2022 83% · 2023 86% — diversifying over time.
“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
60% of WHITE ROCK LAKE CONSERVANCY INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 58% 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
87% of WHITE ROCK LAKE CONSERVANCY INC'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 $69k that is directly attributable, 88% of it comes from Texas funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $467k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
