Financial Transparency
Last updated: 2026-06-24
Our commitment to transparency
We believe donors have the right to see how their gifts are used. As a newly forming organization, we will publish the following documents on this page as they become available:
- IRS Form 990 (or 990-EZ / 990-N as applicable) for each completed fiscal year, once filed.
- Audited or reviewed financial statements, beginning with our first complete fiscal year.
- Annual reports summarizing programs, animals served, conservation outcomes, and finances.
- IRS determination letter recognizing our tax-exempt status, once issued.
- Articles of incorporation and bylaws, available on request.
Status today
Sleepy Tales Farm Sanctuary is in its formation year. We have not yet filed a Form 990 and do not yet have audited financials. Once filings are complete, we will link them here and on third-party transparency platforms (GuideStar/Candid, Charity Navigator) as we qualify.

Where your gift goes
Today, contributions support land acquisition planning, legal and incorporation fees, insurance and licensing, initial fencing and shelter materials, and the operating reserve that will allow us to take in our first residents responsibly. See our Donate page for current giving priorities.
