THE FOUNDATION HOLDS ITS ANIMAL POLULATION FOR PUBLIC EXHIBITION, EDUCATION AND RESEARCH RATHER THAN FOR FINANCIAL GAIN. IT PROTECTS, CARES FOR, PRESERVES AND KEEPS ITS ANIMAL POLULATION UNENCUMBERED. ADDITIONALLY, IT IS IMPRACTICABLE TO ATTEMPT TO ASSIGN VALUES TO THE ANIMAL POLULATION BECAUSE THE ANIMALS HAVE CERTAIN ATTRIBUTES, SUCH AS SPECIES, SEX, AGE, BREEDING POTENTIAL, AND RELATIONSHIP TO OTHERS IN THE ECOSYSTEM THAT MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE AN OBJECTIVE BASIS FOR VALUATION. THE COST OF ANIMAL POLULATION ITEMS PURCHASED BY THE FOUNDATION IS REPORTED IN THE ACCOMPANYING STATEMENTS OF ACTIVITIES AS ANIMAL POLULATION. CONTRIBUTED ANIMAL POLULATION ITEMS ARE NOT REFLECTED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE FOUNDATION DOES NOT DEACCESSION THEIR ANIMAL POLULATION. EXEMPT PURPOSE, SCHEDULE D, PART III, LINE 4: THE CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH OWNS AND OPERATES THE VIRGINIA AQUARIUM INFRASTRUCTURE AND FACILITIES. THE VIRGINIA AQUARIUM & MARINE SCIENCE CENTER FOUNDATION, INC.OWNS THE AQUARIUM EXHIBITS, CONDUCTS EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS, DIRECTS RESEARCH AND CONSERVATION EFFORTS, AND CONDUCTS FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES FOR THE AQUARIUM. FINANCIAL RESULTS FROM THE AQUARIUM FUNDS ARE REPORTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE GOVERNMENTAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS BOARD. SINCE ITS OPENING IN 1986, VIRGINIA AQUARIUM & MARINE SCIENCE CENTER'S MISSION HAS BEEN TO INCREASE THE PUBLIC'S KNOWLEDGE AND APPRECIATION OF THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT AND INSPIRE COMMITMENT TO PRESERVE ITS EXISTENCE. RECOGNIZING THAT MARINE CONSERVATION EXTENDS WELL BEYOND VIRGINIA'S SHORES, THE AQUARIUM ANNOUNCED IN 2011 THAT IT WOULD EXPAND ITS FOCUS TO INSPIRE CONSERVATION OF THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT THROUGH EDUCATION, RESEARCH, AND SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES. THE ANIMAL POLULATION ENABLES THE FOUNDATION TO ATTRACT THE PUBLIC TO BUY TICKETS IN ORDER TO INSPIRE CONSERVATION OF THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT THROUGH EDUCATION, RESEARCH, AND SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES. THE ASSOCIATION OF ZOOS AND AQUARIUMS-SANCTIONED BREEDING PROGRAMS FOR ENDANGERED SPECIES, SUCH AS TOMISTOMA CROCODILES, AND ENABLES STAFF TO CONDUCT IMPORTANT RESEARCH FOR INTERNATIONAL CONSERVATION.
