Chesapeake Bay Foundation Inc: $32.2M Revenue, $26.6M Program Expenses

The composite efficiency score of 63/100 puts Chesapeake Bay Foundation Inc at C — neither standout nor failing. Some factors run above the median (typically program spending) while others run below (typically reserves or trend stability).

Chesapeake Bay Foundation Inc reported $32.2M 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. Chesapeake Bay Foundation Inc directs 80% of its expenses to programs — above the third-party-rater threshold for an efficient organization.

Five-year revenue has grown modestly. Chesapeake Bay Foundation Inc is not expanding rapidly but is not shrinking either; the trajectory is consistent with stable donor and grant relationships. 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. Chesapeake Bay Foundation Inc 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.
