Our Commitment to Transparency

As a nonprofit organization, OUR Community Forestry is committed to operating with transparency, integrity, and accountability.

We believe that public trust is earned through open governance and responsible stewardship of the resources entrusted to us. To support this commitment, we make key organizational documents publicly available, including our Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, IRS Determination Letter, organizational policies, and other governance documents. These materials help demonstrate our compliance with state and federal regulations, guide ethical decision-making, and ensure consistency in our operations.

We also maintain policies related to equity, environmental justice, volunteer engagement, and organizational conduct to help ensure our programs are inclusive, effective, and aligned with our mission. By sharing these documents, we aim to provide stakeholders, partners, donors, volunteers, and community members with a clear understanding of how our organization is governed and how we uphold our responsibilities as a public-benefit nonprofit.
