Bonneville Environmental Foundation: $22.1M Revenue, $15.8M Program Expenses

On the LakeQuality nonprofit efficiency rubric, Bonneville Environmental Foundation pulls an A — the highest available grade. The 85/100 composite reflects a combination of program-focused spending, controlled overhead, and the kind of multi-year financial discipline that grant-makers look for.

Bonneville Environmental Foundation reported $22.1M in 2023 revenue — a mid-sized nonprofit by U.S. standards. Organizations in this bracket typically operate with a small permanent staff, project-based program structures, and modest reserves. Bonneville Environmental Foundation directs 80% of its expenses to programs — above the third-party-rater threshold for an efficient organization.

Five-year revenue trajectory is strongly positive: Bonneville Environmental Foundation has grown materially in real terms, which usually signals successful fundraising and program expansion. CEO compensation is reported as zero in the filing — typical for nonprofits where the chief executive is paid through a related entity (parent system, university, or foundation) rather than the filing organization itself, or for small organizations whose chief is a volunteer or board member. Bonneville Environmental Foundation works in Environment & Animals — environmental, conservation, animal-welfare, and natural-resources programs. The sector spans large international conservation groups and small local land trusts; the financial profile varies accordingly.
