FINANCIALS
The National Coast Trail Association's funding revenues come from approximately 1,000 individual and business memberships received annually
from Oregon and Washington.Since we are registered to collect charitable contributions in both these states we also annually file the required financial reports detailing not only revenues but also expenses with the appropriate state agencies. In addition to the required information, we have also included other information about our organization with these agencies as well. Of course, all this information is available for public inspection.
The National Coast Trail Association was incorporated in the State of Oregon on November 22, 1994 as a non-profit public benefit corporation and is officially recognized as a 501(c)(3) educational and charitable non-profit organization by the United States Internal Revenue Service. (The IRS made its "final determination" of this status in 1999.)
Revenues have increased annually since our inception, and in 1998, although not required, we chose to file the annual IRS federal form 990 EZ detailing our financials. Of course, in keeping with the new IRS regulation, copies of this form must be made available either on the internet or by mail upon request. This information will be available in the near future on the internet at guidestar.org. However, if you would like a copy you may also visit our office, give us a call, or make a request by mail. Our phone number is (503) 335-3876. Our address is . . .
