PINCHOT PARTNERS
EIN 20-3689613 · Forest Conservation (C36)
What they do
RECONCILIATION of UNITED STATES FOREST SERVICE and THE LOCAL COMMUNITY- THERE is A DECADES LONG ANIMOSITY BETWEEN BETWEEN THE FOREST SERVICE and THE PERMANENT RESIDENTS of THE COWLITZ VALLEY. THE FOREST SERVICE ROUTINELY ROTATES PERSONNEL THROUGH DISTRICTS for THEY DO NOT ASSIMILATE INTO THE COMMUNITY. THIS is BY DESIGN. THE LOCAL COMMUNITY REGARDS THE FOREST SERVICE AS AN "OCCUPYING ARMY" LOCATED IN THEIR COMMUNITY. FOREST SERVICE COMMUNICATION WITH THE LOCAL COMMUNITY HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN ABSENT or MINIMAL. THERE is TRULY AN "US and THEM" ATTITUDE. THIS MENTALITY DOES NOT SERVE THE COMMUNITY, THE FOREST SERVICE, or THE NATIONAL FOREST WELL. FROM ITS INCEPTION, PINCHOT PARTNERS HAS SOUGHT to BREAK DOWN THE WALLS BETWEEN THE FOREST SERVICE and THE COMMUNITY. WE HOLD MONTHLY and ANNUAL MEETINGS WHERE COMMUNITY MEMBERS and FOREST SERVICE STAFF ALIKE ARE INVITED to PROVIDE FEEDBACK. JOINT MEETINGS HAVE NOW BECOME THE NORM WITH PINCHOT PARTNERS ATTENDING FOREST SERVICE INTEGRATED TEAM MEE
Should I give to this charity?

Money made simple
Ask these three easy questions
- Who did you help? Ask for a recent story or report that shows real results.
- What will my money do? Ask exactly what your gift will pay for.
- Is this really the charity? Give only through its official website or confirmed phone number.
Bottom line: Do not decide from a name, mission statement, or tax status alone. Look at where the money went, then ask what changed, who was helped, and what your gift will do. YouCanGiveBack does not endorse or grade organizations.
Financial picture
A plain-language look at the latest Form 990 figures available. These numbers help you ask better questions; they do not, by themselves, rate whether a charity is good or bad.
How each $100 of revenue was used
The large number compares each expense with revenue. The smaller number shows its share of total expenses.
Gray means reported revenue left after expenses for this filing year. It does not necessarily mean cash sitting in a bank account.
Money in and money out
Reported spending amounts
Mission work means the Form 990 category called program services. These are reported accounting categories—not an independent measurement of results.
