Elephant Population Management Program

Our mission is to benefit ecosystem health by providing wildlife managers with a safe, effective, non-lethal, and humane tool for managing their free ranging African elephant populations.  We attain this mission through the development and utilization of new surgical technologies in reproductive sterilization including laparoscopic vasectomies, which will help manage elephant population growth and, in turn reduce the need for lethal control.

I was struggling with how to tackle the 1023 application for tax exempt and then I found Linda Hughey – thank goodness!!  Linda was instrumental in helping Elephant Population Management Program achieve 501c3 status.  It was with her efficient, effective and professional help that in a period of approximately 4 months we completed the application.  She did such a great job that we were awarded our tax exempt status in very short order after submission – which I understand is quite unusual.  We couldn’t have done it without her help.  Our whole team knows it was because of her experience and ability to accurately complete that complicated and confusing 1023 application to the IRS that led to our approval.  We continue to work with her on annual filings and activities to keep us in compliance.  We are incredibly grateful for her assistance and professionalism in helping newbie non-profiteers.  As a result we are able to focus on the mission of our organization…..
