Played The management and Board of Directors of Friends of WildCare are the same individuals that serve in management and the Board in WildCare and, accordingly, they managed investment policy and use of income and assets throughout the year. Part IV, Section E, Line 2a: Identify Supported Orgs. and Explain How Activities Furthered Exempt Pu Friends of WildCare was established by the Board of Directors of WildCare for the sole purpose of building a new, renovated facility for WildCare for its exempt purpose as a hospital for injured wildlife and education of children and adults in Marin County on living well with wildlife and nature. The current facility, a wholly owned building at 76 Albert Park Lane, San Rafael, CA, is outdated and too small to expand WildCares services. A MAJOR RENOVATION IS AT THE SAME LOCATION IN THE EARLY STAGES. Part IV, Section E, Line 2b: Reasons For The Organization's Position If Friends of WildCare were not working on development of a new facility for WildCare, WildCare would be making that effort. The reason for setting up the separate entity of Friends of WildCare was to provide additional assurance to donors that all donations, assets, and fund-raising activities for developing a new facility would be legally segregated for sole use in the facilities expansion project.
