In total, we served over 4,000 students by connecting them often for the first time to the outdoors. In total, students will hike over 32,000 miles and be engaged in experiential learning over 16,000 program days. Moreover, we are proud of our achievements in the six following program areas and strategic initiatives:The Tuition Assistance Program We ensure the fees to attend Outdoor Lab are as low or no cost to as many students as possible in the district. An inability to pay tuition should not be a barrier for children to have a transformative time in the outdoors. We delivered $175,000 in tuition assistance grants to 36 middle schools in FY 24. The Intern Program We provided $22,000 in stipends to support our interns in FY 24. Interns are the "boots on the ground", the "glue", the "point guards" of Outdoor Lab. They support teachers, organize classes, train high school leaders, and provide untold support to Outdoor Lab principals and site staff. The High School Leader Program Outdoor Lab leans on the volunteer support of 1,029 high school students each year. They lead classes, move students through their learning centers, and serve as caring young adult mentors to our 6th graders. In total, they contribute over 87,465 hours of community service to Outdoor Lab and Jeffco neighborhood schools. We supported high school leaders with $6,000 in scholarships for their stalwart service as Outdoor Lab leaders in FY 24. The Site Support Program The Foundation works to ensure that nurses and aids have the outerwear and resources they need to keep every student safe, warm, dry, and feeling welcome on site. We also purchase materials and supplies for teachers to impart lessons in the field. Lastly, we paid over $16,000 for important maintenance and infrastructure improvements, so the campuses remain attractive and engaging venues for learning. Gear Library Expansion We are always looking to fill the shelves of both sites with lightly-used or new gear and outerwear students need to stay warm, dry, and feeling safe while in the mountains and away from home. In FY 24 we garnered hundreds of coats, hats, gloves, boots, and other critical pieces of outerwear so that both campuses had a fully stocked gear library. In total, we gave $50,000 of in-kind outerwear to provide students with appropriate clothing for the elements. 682066 true true false false false false false false false true false false false false true true true false false false false false false false true false false true false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true 8 0 true 3 true false false false false false true true false 0 false false false false false false false X 12 12 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true false false false X THE ORGANIZATION 7204038241 3000 YOUNGSFIELD STREET 167 WHEAT RIDGE CO 80215 BRYAN MARTIN Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 102500 0 0 KIM GIESELER AT-LARGE 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 DOUG HANISCH Treasurer 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 JOHN HAMILTON Chair 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 BEN DORLAND VICE CHAIR 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 KRISTEN MEIER PAST CHAIR 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 EMILY CRANFORD Secretary 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 BRANDON GUERNSEY AT-LARGE 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JONATHAN WEIMER AT-LARGE 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 ALLISON TORPEY AT-LARGE 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 ADRIENNE FISCHER AT-LARGE 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 LESLIE OLSSON AT-LARGE 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 WESLEY PAXTON EX-OFFICIO 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 102500 1 false false false 0 8000 94238 555697 38966 657935 MERCHANDISE SALES 459420 24036 24036 24036 41485 41485 0 0 0 0 82511 8000 44722 37789 37789 0 0 0 761245 24036 79274 179000 179000 0 0 0 102500 77900 16400 8200 0 126780 96353 20285 10142 0 35502 26982 5680 2840 18108 13762 2897 1449 0 0 22800 22800 0 0 0 41227 40877 350 15411 11712 2466 1233 8711 6620 1394 697 28577 21719 4572 2286 0 20436 15531 3270 1635 2221 2221 0 0 0 0 0 2523 1917 404 202 PROGRAM SUPPLIES & SUPPORT 179625 179625 BANK FEES 5056 4352 704 TELEPHONE AND UTILITIES 4599 3495 736 368 BAD DEBT 2500 2500 1161 42 1119 796737 682066 84500 30171 1100613 755284 100732 453735 201356 93343 0 0 0 0 19382 9214 0 0 61080 64025 0 0 0 42984 21860 1526147 1397461 27364 24220 40275 20157 67639 44377 X 1211036 1207725 247472 145359 1458508 1353084 1526147 1397461 -35492 5068 -75000 X false true X true false X 231290 919700 587046 711695 657935 3107666 0 0 231290 919700 587046 711695 657935 3107666 0 3107666 6483 2417 879 12103 41485 63367 0 0 3171033 0.98000 0.98960 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 61080 5068 2123 64025 59436 1644 61080 71671 -10170 1733 332 59436 61087 13262 2022 656 71671 60901 2725 1937 602 61087 0.37590 0.62410 true false false OPERATING LEASE LIABILITY 20157 20157 X 766313 5068 5068 761245 761245 796737 796737 796737 Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund.
