PART VIII-A - SUMMARY OF DIRECT CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES GRACE FARMS FOUNDATION, INC. (THE "FOUNDATION"), FORMED IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE IN DECEMBER 2009, IS A NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATION EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAXES UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE ("IRC"). OUR WORK GRACE FARMS IS A CULTURAL AND HUMANITARIAN CENTER IN NEW CANAAN, CONNECTICUT. WE BRING TOGETHER PEOPLE ACROSS SECTORS TO EXPERIENCE NATURE, ENCOUNTER THE ARTS, PURSUE JUSTICE, FOSTER COMMUNITY, AND EXPLORE FAITH. COMPRISING NEARLY 80 ACRES OF NATURAL LANDSCAPES AND FEATURING THE ARCHITECTURALLY SIGNIFICANT RIVER BUILDING, DESIGNED BY SANAA, GRACE FARMS IS OPEN (AT NO COST) TO THE PUBLIC SIX DAYS A WEEK FOR INDOOR AND OUTDOOR PROGRAMS FOR INTERGENERATIONAL AUDIENCES. THESE INCLUDE NATURE TOURS OF GRACE FARMS' DIVERSE LANDSCAPES, INCLUDING MEADOWS, WOODLANDS AND WETLANDS; ARCHITECTURE AND SUSTAINABILITY TOURS; PERFORMANCES, INCLUDING THOSE THAT FEATURE AWARD-WINNING MUSICIANS AND OTHER ARTISTS; LECTURES AND DISCUSSIONS; PICNICS FOR THE COMMUNITY; AND YEAR-ROUND EDUCATIONAL AND RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES. THE RIVER BUILDING, WITH ITS FIVE TRANSPARENT VOLUMES, INCLUDES ABUNDANT COMMUNAL SPACES AND A 360-DEGREE VIEW OF THE LANDSCAPE. IT HAS BECOME WIDELY RECOGNIZED AS AN IDEAL ENVIRONMENT AND PLATFORM FOR LEADERS AND CHANGEMAKERS TO WORK ON SOME OF OUR MOST PRESSING HUMANITARIAN CHALLENGES AND TO ADVANCE GOOD LOCALLY AND GLOBALLY. OUR 5 INITIATIVES THE MISSION OF GRACE FARMS FOUNDATION IS BASED ON 5 INITIATIVES: NATURE: WE FACILITATE THE STEWARDSHIP OF OUR NATURAL WORLD THROUGH RESTORATION, EXPLORATION, AND PRESERVATION. THROUGH THE PROTECTION OF THE OPEN MEADOWS, WOODS, VITAL WETLANDS, AND PONDS ON OUR SITE, AND BY PROVIDING YEAR-ROUND EXPLORATORY OPPORTUNITIES AND MULTIGENERATIONAL PROGRAMMING, WE ENCOURAGE VISITORS TO EXPERIENCE THE AWE AND WONDER OF NATURE AND EMBRACE STEWARDSHIP OF THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT. IN 2023, MORE THAN 1,500 VISITORS PARTICIPATED IN OUR NATURE PROGRAMMING, RANGING FROM OUR LIVING CLASSROOM SERIES, WHICH TEACHES PEOPLE ABOUT ECOSYSTEMS AND OUR ROLE IN STEWARDING THEM TO OUR ASTRONOMY PROGRAMS THAT ENCOURAGE EXPLORATION OF OUR SOLAR SYSTEM. ARTS: WE WELCOME ARTISTS FROM ACROSS DISCIPLINES TO SHARE DIVERSE PERSPECTIVES THAT EXPAND OUR WORLDVIEWS, HELP US CONNECT WITH ONE ANOTHER, AND ENHANCE OUR SENSE OF BEAUTY. BY WEAVING THE ARTS THROUGH OUR RHYTHMS OF WORK, REFLECTION, AND PLAY, WE DISCOVER ASPECTS OF OURSELVES AND THE WORLD AROUND US. SINCE GRACE FARMS' FOUNDING IN 2015, MORE THAN 250 VISUAL, PERFORMING, AND LITERARY ARTISTS HAVE PRESENTED TO AUDIENCES HERE. IN 2023, WE LAUNCHED VOICES OF CULTURE, A MUSICAL SERIES THAT EXPLORES DIFFERENT MUSICAL TRADITIONS FROM AROUND THE WORLD. WE ALSO CONTINUED OUR BEAUTY & LOGIC SERIES, WHICH FEATURES MUSIC AND CONVERSATION THAT EXPLORES THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MATH AND MUSIC. OVER THE COURSE OF THE YEAR, MORE THAN 5,100 EXPERIENCED THESE PROGRAMS. IN ADDITION, OUR LONG-STANDING OPEN ARTS STUDIO WELCOMED 2,600 CHILDREN AND THEIR CAREGIVERS TO PLAY AND CREATE, EXPERIMENTING WITH SENSORY-RICH MATERIALS AND DIFFERENT MODES OF ARTMAKING. JUSTICE: OUR COMMITMENT TO JUSTICE IS BASED ON THE INHERENT RIGHT OF LIBERTY AND EQUALITY FOR ALL. IN 2020, WE LAUNCHED DESIGN FOR FREEDOM, A GLOBAL MOVEMENT TO CREATE MARKET TRANSFORMATION TO REMOVE FORCED LABOR FROM THE BUILDING MATERIALS SUPPLY CHAIN. IN 2023, THE IMPACT OF DESIGN FOR FREEDOM GREW WITH THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF FIVE NEW PILOT PROJECTS. DESIGN FOR FREEDOM PILOT PROJECTS ARE NEW CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS THAT ARE SUBMITTED BY DESIGN TEAMS AND OWNERS FOR SELECTION BY GRACE FARMS TO MODEL MORE TRANSPARENT AND ETHICAL SUPPLY CHAINS. THERE ARE NOW 12 SUCH PROJECTS ON THREE CONTINENTS, AND MORE THAN ONE MILLION PEOPLE HAVE VISITED OR EXPERIENCED DESIGN FOR FREEDOM PILOT PROJECTS SINCE THE PROGRAM WAS LAUNCHED IN 2022. THE THIRD ANNUAL DESIGN FOR FREEDOM SUMMIT, HELD ON THE GROUNDS OF GRACE FARMS, GALVANIZED MORE THAN 500 LEADERS, ALONGSIDE MORE THAN 60 STUDENTS FROM 27 UNIVERSITIES, TO COME TOGETHER AND REAFFIRM THEIR COMMITMENT TO ADVANCING THIS WORK. GRACE FARMS ALSO CO-HOSTED THE ETHICAL SUPPLY CHAIN WORKSHOP, ALONG WITH THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE'S OFFICE OF OVERSEAS BUILDINGS OPERATIONS AND TURNER CONSTRUCTION, BRINGING TOGETHER MORE THAN 80 INDUSTRY PROFESSIONALS TO ADDRESS AND PROMOTE FAIR AND ETHICAL LABOR AND PROCUREMENT PRACTICES IN THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY. GRACE FARMS TEA AND COFFEE DESIGN FOR FREEDOM IS JUST ONE COMPONENT OF OUR WORK TO INCREASE TRANSPARENCY INTO SUPPLY CHAINS. GRACE FARMS FOODS, A PUBLIC BENEFIT TAXABLE SUBSIDIARY THAT WAS DONATED TO THE FOUNDATION IN 2021, EDUCATES THE PUBLIC, THROUGH ITS ETHICALLY SOURCED TEAS AND COFFEE, ABOUT THE CHARITABLE PURPOSES OF GRACE FARMS FOUNDATION, AND IT EMBODIES OUR HUMANITARIAN WORK THROUGH ITS TEAS AND COFFEES. A CERTIFIED B CORP, 100% OF GRACE FARMS FOODS' PROFITS SUPPORT DESIGN FOR FREEDOM. GRACE FARMS FOODS IS THE FIRST U.S.-BASED PREMIUM TEA BRAND TO PARTNER WITH FAIRTRADE INTERNATIONAL AND THE ONLY ONE THAT GIVES BACK 100% OF PROFITS TO ENDING FORCED LABOR WORLDWIDE. GRACE FARMS FOODS IS ALSO THE ONLY PREMIUM COFFEE BRAND TO EXCLUSIVELY SOURCE FROM WOMEN-LED CO-OPS AROUND THE WORLD. GRACE FARMS FOODS HAS EDUCATED CONSUMERS AND MULTINATIONAL NONPROFITS AND CORPORATIONS ABOUT FORCED LABOR IN OUR FOOD AND OUR ARCHITECTURE. IN 2023, WITH THE GOAL OF EDUCATING THOUSANDS OF EMPLOYEES IN MAJOR COMPANIES ABOUT THESE ISSUES, THE COMPANY LAUNCHED A CORPORATE AND WHOLESALE PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM WITH OVER 20 LEADING ORGANIZATIONS. COMMUNITY: GRACE FARMS PROVIDES A WARM, WELCOMING ENVIRONMENT THAT FOSTERS MEANINGFUL COMMUNITY AND ENGAGEMENT AMONG DIVERSE GROUPS OF PEOPLE. OUR COMMUNITY INITIATIVE CREATES PROXIMITIES TO INDIVIDUALS AND ORGANIZATIONS WITH DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES TO ADVANCE NEW WAYS OF THINKING, IGNITE PARTNERSHIPS, AND CATALYZE NEW OUTCOMES THAT CAN LEAD TOWARD SUSTAINED SOCIAL IMPACT TO ADVANCE GOOD IN THE WORLD. GRACE FARMS ALSO FOSTERS COMMUNITY THROUGH THE FOUNDATION'S SPACE GRANT PROGRAM, WHICH OFFERS FREE ACCESS TO DEDICATED FACILITIES AT GRACE FARMS TO NOT-FOR-PROFITS, SCHOOL GROUPS, GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, AND QUASI-GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES. DRAWING TOGETHER DIVERSE COMMUNITIES AND OPENING LINES OF COMMUNICATION ACROSS BARRIERS, USE OF OUR RESTORATIVE AND HOPEFUL SPACES EXPANDS POSSIBILITIES AND INSPIRES NEW IDEAS. BEYOND THE USE OF PHYSICAL SPACE, EACH GRANTEE IS SUPPORTED BY THE FOUNDATION'S EXCEPTIONAL TEAM AND DESIGNATED EVENT LEAD, WHO FACILITATES THE COORDINATION OF CULINARY, EDUCATION, PRODUCTION, HOSPITALITY, AND GUEST EXPERIENCES NEEDED TO ENSURE THE EVENT MEETS THE EXPECTATIONS OF THE GRANTEE. UNDER THIS GUIDANCE, GRANTEES, IN SOME CASES THROUGH MULTIPLE INSTANCES EACH YEAR, HOST BOARD MEETINGS, STAFF RETREATS, WORKSHOPS, PANEL DISCUSSIONS, EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES. IN 2023, GRACE FARMS HOSTED MORE THAN 40 SPACE GRANTS, PROVIDING GRANTS THAT EXCEEDED $450,000 IN EQUIVALENT VALUE. IN ADDITION, GRACE FARMS' ONGOING FOOD RELIEF PROGRAM CONTINUED TO GIVE BACK TO COMMUNITY MEMBERS IN NEED. SINCE LAUNCHING THE PROGRAM IN 2020, GRACE FARMS HAS PROVIDED MORE THAN 150,000 NUTRITIOUS MEALS TO OUR FOOD RELIEF PARTNERS WHO PROVIDE FOR THOSE WHO ARE FOOD INSECURE. IN THE PAST YEAR, GRACE FARMS' EDUCATIONAL AND TOUR PROGRAMS FOR ELEMENTARY, MIDDLE, AND HIGH SCHOOLERS WAS ALSO LAUNCHED. THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, 517 STUDENTS AND EDUCATORS VISITED GRACE FARMS, WHERE OUR EDUCATION TEAM HOSTED 17 GROUPS FROM 13 UNIQUE SCHOOLS. FAITH: WE OFFER THE REFLECTIVE SPACE OF GRACE FARMS AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR DIALOGUE TO EXPLORE THE NATURE OF FLOURISHING AND PURPOSEFUL LIFE. IN PURSUIT OF MORE GRACE AND PEACE IN THE WORLD, WE BRING TOGETHER LEADERS AND EDUCATORS FOR WORKSHOPS TO ENGAGE WITH THE WORLD'S ANCIENT AND MODERN PHILOSOPHIES, BELIEFS, AND FAITHS. IN 2023, GRACE FARMS EXPANDED ITS PARTNERSHIP WITH THE YALE CENTER FOR FAITH AND CULTURE WITH A CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOP WITH MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL TEACHERS. DURING THIS WORKSHOP, EDUCATORS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO ATTEND A SESSION OF "THE LIFE WORTH LIVING" COURSE, FOLLOWED BY WORKSHOPS ON CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT USING A THEMATIC TEMPLATE OFFERING SELECTIONS OF TEXTS FROM AN ARCHIVE OF PHILOSOPHICAL AND RELIGIOUS TRADITIONS. EDUCATORS LEFT GRACE FARMS WITH A COURSE SYLLABUS OF THEIR OWN TO PILOT, EXPANDING THE IMPACT OF THIS PROGRAM BEYOND GRACE FARMS. GRACE FARMS ALSO CONTINUED ITS SUCCESSFUL BOOKS ON FAITH & MEANING SERIES, WHICH INVITES AUTHORS FROM VARIOUS FAITH AND PHILOSOPHICAL BACKGROUNDS FOR A CONVERSATION ABOUT TEXTS THAT ENCOURAGE US TO THINK CRITICALLY ABOUT THE MEANING OF OUR LIVES. THESE INITIATIVES AND OUTCOMES ADVANCE GRACE FARMS FOUNDATION'S MISSION TO FOSTER MORE GRACE AND PEACE LOCALLY AND AROUND THE WORLD.
