This effort, in line with EconAlliances mission to promote industry understanding, entrepreneurship, and innovation, involved hiring a telecom consultancy to develop, price, and evaluate two potential fiber optic routes for North County broadband. The consultancys task was to recommend a final route and governance plan, along with providing maintenance and operational cost estimates, aligning with EconAlliances goals of driving positive impact through strategic initiatives and unique partnerships. EconAlliance completed its role in the project by late 2023, with grant activities wrapping up in 2024. 10500 10500 In September 2023, EconAlliance received a $50,000 grant from the Santa Barbara Foundation to manage a year-long internship program for 50 young adults. This program aimed to match interns with suitable worksites based on their interests and qualifications, thereby promoting the development of a highly-skilled workforce and enhancing worker opportunity. Through this initiative, EconAlliance successfully placed a dozen interns by the end of the year, with several securing employment at their internship locations, demonstrating the value of the internships to both the young adults and employers. This activity supports EconAlliances broader mission to support industry attraction, retention, and expansion, championing Northern Santa Barbara County communities and the key industry sectors that inspire regional economic vitality. 7000 7000 In late 2023, EconAlliance secured funding to support the Santa Ynez Mission Indians (Chumash) in promoting wind energy opportunities at their tribal learning center. This initiative includes creating educational materials on wind energy and coordinating virtual learning sessions. Additionally, EconAlliance is collaborating with California Community College to develop a two-year associate degree program in Wind Energy and Tribal Archaeology, among other related fields. These efforts align with EconAlliances mission to foster industry understanding, entrepreneurship, and workforce development, ultimately enhancing the economic vitality of Northern Santa Barbara County through strategic educational initiatives. 404585 true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 4 0 true 0 true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false X 16 16 false false false false false false false true true false false false true true true true true false false false CA X EDWARD TAYLOR 8053058032 540 EAST BETTERAVIA ROAD D234 Santa Maria CA 93454 X PAUL MURPHY BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 TIM MAHONEY BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MARK ALLEN BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 KATIE GORNDT BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 BEN OAKLEY BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MARVIN RODRIGUEZ BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MARTIN PEHL BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 ERIC DANIELS BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MARIBEL AGUILERA BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 DUSTIN CHENEY BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 PHIL ADAM VP FINANCE 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 PATRICE MOSBY VP GOVERNANCE 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 SAM COHEN PRESIDENT 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 STEVE GRIEG SECRETARY 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 LAURIE TAMURA TREASURER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 PHILIP TABYANAN VP FUND DEVELOPMENT 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 false false false 49124 527424 1558 576548 49124 576548 0 0 0 451285 404585 46700 22000 22000 42550 42550 26229 26229 2129 2129 2265 2265 2738 2738 Postage 349 349 Printing 1007 1007 Leased Employee 4176 4176 Donations 100 100 4073 4073 558901 404585 111766 42550 57657 48506 81592 20500 873 300 140122 69306 92477 4014 92477 4014 X 27125 12792 20520 52500 47645 65292 140122 69306 17647 0 X false false false X 105840 32521 157507 167259 527424 990551 105840 32521 157507 167259 527424 990551 44767 945784 990551 0.95480 1.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED FORUMS 49855 49855 20705 GOLF TOURNEY 24478 24478 19789 1 3161 3161 3253 77494 77494 43747 43747 33747 Form 990 governing body review Part VI line 11 NO REVIEW WAS OR WILL BE CONDUCTED Conflict of interest policy compliance Part VI line 12c EACH BOARD DIRECTOR READS AND SIGN AN ANNUAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST STATEMENT OR DISCLOSURE.
