IN 2020, WE COMPLETED CONSTRUCTION AND TRANSITIONED OPERATIONS FROM OUR DONATED RANCH HOUSE TO A BRAND NEW 11,000 SQUARE FOOT FACILITY. UP UNTIL APRIL OF 2020, WE HAD BEEN SERVING OVER 40,000 COMMUNITY MEMBERS WITHIN A 100-MILE RADIUS OF CAPE NEDDICK, ME, AND TREATING AN AVERAGE OF 2,500 WILD ANIMALS OUT OF A 1,200SQ FOOT RANCH HOUSE, WHICH WAS INAPPROPRIATELY SIZED AND PRESENTED SAFETY AND WORKFLOW CHALLENGES ON A DAILY BASIS. THE NEW FACILITY'S INDOOR SPACE INCLUDES A STATE-OF-THE-ART WILDLIFE MEDICAL CLINIC (COMPLETE WITH DIAGNOSTICS LIKE X-RAY, ANESTHESIA MACHINE, LEAD TESTING AND OTHER BLOODWORK ANALYSIS CAPABILITIES); AUDITORIUM, CLASSROOM, AND EDUCATIONAL EXHIBIT SPACE FOR HOSTING FIELD TRIPS; OUTDOOR AMPHITHEATER AND NATURE CENTER TO CREATE EARNED INCOME REVENUE; ALONG WITH INTERN HOUSING TO PROVIDE CAREER TRAINING TO YOUNG PROFESSIONALS FROM ACROSS THE COUNTRY. IN 2021-2022, OUR FOCUS WAS ON THE SITE WORK AND CONSTRUCTION OF 18 NON-RELEASABLE WILD ANIMAL ENCLOSURES. BEYOND OFFERING SANCTUARY TO THESE WILD ANIMALS THAT HAVE SUFFERED PERMANENT INJURY DUE TO CAR STRIKES OR POACHING, THIS AMBASSADOR CAMPUS INCLUDES A UNIVERSALLY ACCESSIBLE PATH AND VIEWING WINDOWS FOR THE PUBLIC AND FIELD TRIPS TO LEARN ABOUT THE WILDLIFE IN THEIR BACKYARDS, THEIR HABITATS, ECOSYSTEMS, AND CONNECTION TO HUMAN WELL-BEING. WITH THIS COMPLETED, WE NOW TURN TO LAST PHASE: BUILDING 40 STATE-OF-THE-ART WILDLIFE HEALING ENCLOSURES AS THE LAST STAGE OF RECOVERY PRIOR TO RELEASE FOR UP TO 190 NATIVE WILDLIFE SPECIES, ALONG WITH RESTORING THE LEASED YORK WATER DISTRICT PROPERTY TO NATURAL. THE COMPLETION OF THIS PROJECT WILL MAKE US THE ONLY OF OUR KIND IN NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND, AND WILL GIVE US THE CAPACITY TO TREAT UP TO 3,500 INJURED AND ORPHANED WILD ANIMALS AT THIS LOCATION. THIS EXPANSION HAS BEEN COMPREHENSIVE, AND WE FOLLOW A 3 YEAR PRO-FORMA BUDGET, STAFFING AND STRATEGIC PLAN. OUR FULL-TIME STAFF IS COMPRISED OF 15 QUALIFIED INDIVIDUALS, AND THOUGH OUR SERVICES PROVIDED TO THE PUBLIC HAVE GROWN MORE ROBUST THAN EVER, OUR OPERATING BUDGET THIS YEAR REMAINED AT 995,531 THANKS TO A COMMITMENT TO SECURING IN-KIND SUPPORT AND RESOURCES. YOU CAN VIEW OUR 157,806.84 IN IN-KIND VOLUNTEER HOURS, MATERIALS AND FUNDRAISING DONATIONS, ALONG WITH OUR UNRESTRICTED NET OPERATING INCOME OF 13,541.41 ON OUR FY 7.1.2023-6.30.2024 PROFIT AND LOSS STATEMENT. THE DEFICIT SHOWN IN EXPENSE TO INCOME ON THE 990 IS DUE TO DEPRECIATION BEING INCLUDED AS AN EXPENSE. ALL OTHER INCOME REPORTED THIS YEAR IS FOR THE CAPITAL CAMPAIGN AND ASSOCIATED WITH CONSTRUCTION, ENGINEERING, PERMITTING, STAFFING, AND OTHER COSTS FOR BUILDING OUR NEW FACILITY AND CAMPUS ALONG WITH TRANSITIONING OPERATIONS.
