Since our early days as a small, locally-based advocacy group, Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance has remained a lean, issues-focused organization with low overhead costs and a commitment to on-the-ground wilderness protection.  About 80 percent of our funding comes from membership dues and donations and 80 percent of our income is spent on program work.

SUWA is a qualified as a non-profit organization under section 501 (c) (3) of the federal tax code, incorporated in 1983 in the State of Utah. All contributions to SUWA are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
