Because of your generosity,we continued to work toward our mission of alleviating poverty through education,conservation, and advocating for basic human rights. As we begin 2024, I would like togive you a quick update.La Tribu Radiante (our after-school and child sponsorship program) was our main focusin 2023. We were amazed once again by the amount of sponsors who came alongsidedeserving children who worked hard to pursue their education. The amount ofsponsored children remained constant at 145 students. Each received a uniform,shoes, backpack, school supplies and healthy meals throughout the year. Our wonderfulstaff of teachers, cooks, and drivers mentored over 350 students attending classes on aweekly basis. 19,295 healthy meals were served and went directly into the hands ofhungry children. We continued with Spanish, English, math, and computer classesalong with 2 weeks of swimming camp.One of our goals is to expand the world of ourstudents through incentive learning excursions. This year we made pizza, traveledthrough the estuary on boats, visited the Cathedral of Len, and released baby seaturtles.Our Turtle Tribe project continued from September through December. We were able topurchase 5,886 Olive Ridley turtle eggs before they were sold to the local market. Weended up with a total of 76 protected nests and released over 4000 hatchlings. All of ourstudents and groups from several schools from the area had the opportunity to hold andrelease a baby sea turtle. Our hope is to foster a respect for the wildlife around us andeducate a generation about the important role this endangered species plays in ourocean eco-system that provides a living for many people in our community.We are grateful for your continued support. Your faithfulness allowed us break groundon a brand new learning center which will completed in 2024. We are honored each dayto walk alongside you and the people of Salinas Grande, being transformed together. 229780 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false true false false false false true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 2 0 true 1 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 5 4 false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true false X DUSTIN L HERRING 5415902317 206 PARK VILLAGE CT FLORENCE OR 97439 DUSTIN L HERRING President 40.00 0.00 X X 60475 0 7000 CHIP SCOTT Director 4.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 BOB PURSCELLEY Vice President 4.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 ROBBIE WRIGHT Treasurer 4.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 JANE ALSOP Secretary 4.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 60475 7000 0 false false false 0 379543 379543 0 23 23 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 379566 23 0 0 0 0 67475 53980 6748 6747 0 0 0 0 4626 4163 463 0 0 1977 1977 0 0 0 0 1574 1417 157 830 747 83 0 0 19000 17100 1900 20527 18474 2053 0 0 0 0 11820 10638 1182 0 MINISTRY COSTS 99866 99866 AUTOMOBILE EXPENSE 17317 15585 1732 BUSINESS MEALS 4230 3807 423 SUPPLIES 2455 2210 245 1992 1793 199 253689 229780 17162 6747 27827 117268 14652 14652 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 191236 26278 128522 164958 0 0 0 0 0 171001 296878 1 1 1 1 X 171000 296877 171000 296877 171001 296878 125877 X false false false X 115577 216373 284078 253553 379543 1249124 0 0 115577 216373 284078 253553 379543 1249124 0 1249124 2 4 1 70 23 100 0 24 24 1249248 0.99990 0.99990 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 8000 8000 40256 84 40172 99980 8094 91886 43000 18100 24900 164958 Rounding 1 1 CENTRAL AMERICA 1 1 HUMANITARIAN AND EDUCATION MEALS AND TEACHING AND PRESERV 229780 1 1 1 1 229780 229780 false false false false false false Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b No review was or will be conducted.
