Financial

The Friends of Sholan Farms strongly believe in organizational transparency.

In recent years, several federal government actions have dramatically increased baseline expectations for nonprofit transparency and accountability. We think that’s a good thing. By being completely transparent about our finances and how we spend the dollars donated to our cause, our goal is to help our donors feel confident that they can trust in our organization.

We provide our Annual Report and our IRS Form 990 to be freely downloaded from our website. Please use the download links below.

We are a 501 ©(3) tax-exempt nonprofit. Our tax ID number is 04-3584313.
