Summary of the Filing
Where the work happens
Restoration
The Mill Creek passage projects are a multi-year, multi-phase approach to improving fish passage in the six-mile flood control channel that runs through Walla Walla. Two miles of the flood control channel is a concrete lined section, which presents especially poor conditions for returning adult steelhead, Chinook salmon, and bull trout.
Education
SALMON IN SCHOOL The Salmon in School program allows students a hands-on STEM learning experience through raising and releasing salmon. For the 2023-2024 school year, the program provided 29 aquariums in area schools and afterschool programs in Walla Walla, Columbia, and Garfield counties, serving 1,700 students.
Recreation
SUPPORT OF JUMBO TROUT PROGRAMTri-State Steelheaders continued to partner with the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife to provide the Jumbo Trout Program. Tri-State Steelheaders purchased food used to raise about 4,000 rainbow trout.

Names, privacy, and removal requests More
The names, titles, and compensation shown on this page are reproduced from IRS Form 990 filings, which are public records.
Philanthropy.org does not alter the content of those filings. All information appears exactly as reported by the filing organization for the tax year shown.
We publish only information contained in the public IRS filing — and less than the filing contains. Our profile pages do not display street addresses, telephone numbers, personal email addresses, or other personal contact information, even where the filing includes them.
Many people share the same name. A name shown on this page reflects only what one organization reported in one IRS filing for one tax year. It should not be interpreted as identifying any other individual with the same or a similar name.
If you are no longer affiliated with the organization, your name will generally stop appearing in future IRS filings once the organization no longer reports you. Pages for tax years in which you were reported remain published because those filings remain part of the public record.
Philanthropy.org does not alter or remove IRS filing records. Removing a page from this website would not remove the underlying IRS filing, which remains publicly available from the IRS and other publishers of the same information.
If you believe the IRS filing itself is inaccurate, corrections must be made by the filing organization or the IRS directly.
