OF OREGON (CASA OF OREGON) TO CREATE AN EDUCATION INDIVIDUAL DEVELOPMENT ACCOUNT (IDA) PROGRAM. THE PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO HELP INCOME-ELIGIBLE OREGONIANS SECURE THE LIFETIME ASSET OF A COLLEGE EDUCATION. IN THIS PROGRAM, ALLIANCE MEMBER COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY STUDENTS SAVE $500 AND RECEIVE A 6:1 MATCH THROUGH THE ALLIANCE. THIS TURNS $500 OF STUDENT SAVINGS INTO $3,500 PER YEAR FOR EACH PARTICIPATING STUDENT.THIS EDUCATION IDA PROGRAM, CALLED E3: EARN, EDUCATE, EMPOWER, IS AN IDEAL EXAMPLE OF HOW THE ALLIANCE LEVERAGES BOTH PRIVATE DONATIONS AND PUBLIC (STATE AND FEDERAL) RESOURCES. THE PUBLIC RESOURCES TARGET LOW-INCOME POPULATIONS, WHICH ALIGNS WITH THE ALLIANCE'S GOAL OF PROVIDING ACCESS, OPPORTUNITY, AND CHOICE FOR LOW-INCOME OREGONIANS, AS WELL AS UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS (E.G., STUDENTS OF COLOR, FIRST-GENERATION STUDENTS, DACA STUDENTS, NON-NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKERS, ETC.). THE E3 PROGRAM HELPS ENSURE THAT YOUNG PEOPLE HAVE EQUAL OPPORTUNITY TO ACCESS THE QUALITY AND PERSONALIZED EXPERIENCE OFFERED AT OREGON'S PRIVATE INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION. THE PROGRAM ALSO ADVANCES THE ALLIANCE'S DESIRE TO GRADUATE FINANCIALLY LITERATE STUDENTS WHO HAVE THE SKILLS TO IMMEDIATELY IMPACT THE REGION'S TALENT NEEDS.PARTICIPATION HAS INCREASED STEADILY SINCE THE PROGRAM'S INCEPTION. TO DATE, NEARLY 720 STUDENTS AT ALLIANCE MEMBER INSTITUTIONS HAVE PARTICIPATED IN THE ALLIANCE EDUCATION IDA PROGRAM. THE AGGREGATE TOTAL OF PARTICIPATING STUDENTS' SAVINGS TO DATE IS $719,089, AND THE TOTAL MATCHES TENDERED TO THE MEMBER COLLEGES ON THESE STUDENTS' BEHALF IS NOW $3,979,249. WE PROJECT THAT PROGRAM INTEREST WILL CONTINUE TO GROW AT A SIMILAR RATE IN 2021-22 AND BEYOND. PROGRAMS THAT FACILITATE COLLABORATION AMONG MEMBER INSTITUTIONS & BUSINESS/INDUSTRYGRANT ENCOURAGES MEMBER INSTITUTION COLLABORATION WITH BUSINESS/INDUSTRY FOR CONSERVATION RESEARCHWITH ANNUAL FUNDING FROM THE KATHERINE BISBEE II FUND OF THE OREGON COMMUNITY FOUNDATION, THE ALLIANCE SPONSORS COLLABORATIVE UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH PROJECTS FOCUSED ON CONSERVATION. THE GRANT REQUIRES THAT AN ALLIANCE MEMBER COLLEGE OR UNIVERSITY COLLABORATE WITH AT LEAST ONE BUSINESS/INDUSTRY PARTNER ON THE PROJECT. THE ALLIANCE AWARDED THREE GRANTS OF $10,000 EACH IN 2020-21. ONE TO THE UNIVERSITY OF PORTLAND TO DEVELOP A STATEWIDE ASSESSMENT, IN COLLABORATION WITH INDUSTRY PARTNER BLUE FOREST CONSERVATION OF WATER SUPPLY AT RISK OF SEVERE WILDFIRE. WHILE THERE IS A GENERAL UNDERSTANDING THAT WATER SUPPLY ACROSS OREGON IS AT RISK OF SEVERE WILDFIRE, THERE IS AN URGENT NEED TO DEVELOP A COMPREHENSIVE, COHESIVE, SPATIALLY EXPLICIT ANALYSIS OF THIS RISK ACROSS THE STATE. ONE TO GEORGE FOX UNIVERSITY TO INVESTIGATE WITH INDUSTRY PARTNER ADVANCED ENERGY SYSTEMS THE MULTIPLE POTENTIAL BENEFITS OF TECHNOLOGY ON THE SUSTAINABLE USE OF RESOURCES. THE PROJECT WILL BUILD UPON ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF PHASE 1 OF THE PROJECT TO BETTER UNDERSTAND AND QUANTIFY THE BENEFITS TO BOTH ENERGY PRODUCTION AND WATER CONSERVATION OF RESIDENTIAL SCALE GROUND-MOUNT SOLAR PANELS, CO-LOCATED WITH URBAN LANDSCAPING AND VEGETATION. ONE TO WILLAMETTE UNIVERSITY TO MEASURE THE ECONOMIC, ECOLOGICAL, AND CULTURAL VALUE OF NATIVE OAK TREES WHERE THEY OCCUR ON WINERIES IN THE WILLAMETTE VALLEY. THE VISION OF THIS PILOT PROJECT IS TO PROMOTE AWARENESS OF THE VALUE OF BIG OLD COMPLEX TREES THAT IS SYNERGISTIC WITH MARKETING WINE AND THE CONSERVATION OF NUTHATCHES AND OTHER BIRDS THAT LOVE NATIVE OAKS. UNDERGRADUATE AND FACULTY RESEARCHERS WILL PARTNER WITH FOUR OREGON WINERIES IN THE EOLA-AMITY HILL AND VAN DUZER AMERICAN VITICULTURAL AREAS TO DOCUMENT HOW SLENDER-BILLED NUTHATCHES USE OAK TREES IN AND AROUND VINEYARDS. THE RESEARCHERS WILL ALSO SURVEY VINEYARD OWNERS/MANAGERS TO EXPLORE WHAT MOTIVATES THEM TO CONSERVE INDIVIDUAL OAK TREES AND DOCUMENT HOW AND WHY THEY VALUE THESE TREES BIOLOGICALLY, CULTURALLY, AND ECONOMICALLY. ACTIVITIES THAT BUILD PATHWAYS AND PROMOTE ACCESS TO MEMBER INSTITUTIONSPLANNING GRANT AWARDED BY THE TEAGLE FOUNDATION BEGINS TO BUILD PATHWAYS FROM OREGON COMMUNITY COLLEGES TO OREGON LIBERAL ARTS INSTITUTIONSIN MAY 2020, THE ALLIANCE WAS AWARDED A "PATHWAYS TO THE LIBERAL ARTS INITIATIVE" PLANNING GRANT BY THE TEAGLE FOUNDATION. THE GRANT WILL SUPPORT THE PLANNING OF PATHWAYS FROM OREGON'S COMMUNITY COLLEGES TO OREGON'S PRIVATE, NONPROFIT LIBERAL ARTS INSTITUTIONS. NINE OF THE ALLIANCE MEMBER INSTITUTIONS AND ALL 17 OREGON COMMUNITY COLLEGES HAVE COMMITTED TO PARTNERING ON THIS PLANNING INITIATIVE. GIVEN THAT OREGON HAS THE HIGHEST COMPLETION RATE IN THE COUNTRY FOR STUDENTS TRANSFERRING FROM COMMUNITY COLLEGES INTO PRIVATE NONPROFIT INSTITUTIONS (NATIONAL STUDENT CLEARINGHOUSE, COMMUNITY COLLEGE RESEARCH CENTER & ASPEN INSTITUTE, 2016), OREGON IS WELL POSITIONED TO JOIN THIS IMPORTANT INITIATIVE. THE PROJECT TAKES ADVANTAGE OF A CONSORTIAL APPROACH BY PARTNERING WITH THE OREGON COMMUNITY COLLEGE ASSOCIATION TO PROMOTE TRANSFER FROM TWO-YEAR COMMUNITY COLLEGES TO FOUR-YEAR PRIVATE LIBERAL ARTS COLLEGES.A PRIMARY REQUIREMENT OF THE GRANT IS THAT PLANNING BE FACULTY DRIVEN AND FACULTY LED. OVER THE COURSE OF THE 12-MONTH GRANT, THE PROJECT PARTICIPANTS WILL COLLECT DATA, LEARN BEST PRACTICES, ESTABLISH COLLABORATIVE FACULTY LEARNING COMMUNITIES, AND DEFINE A SET OF SHARED GOALS TO DEVELOP CLEAR CURRICULAR PATHWAYS BETWEEN OREGON'S COMMUNITY COLLEGES AND OREGON'S PRIVATE LIBERAL ARTS INSTITUTIONS. THE THREE STRATEGIC OUTCOMES OF THE GRANT ARE: (1) IMPROVED UNDERSTANDING OF COMMUNITY COLLEGE TRANSFER INITIATIVES AND TRANSFER STUDENT EXPERIENCES AT ALLIANCE INSTITUTIONS, (2) STRENGTHENED CROSS-INSTITUTIONAL RELATIONSHIPS AND UNDERSTANDING-PARTICULARLY AMONG FACULTY, AND (3) A UNIFIED VISION AROUND TRANSFER BETWEEN OREGON'S COMMUNITY COLLEGES AND NINE ALLIANCE INSTITUTIONS.WE ARE EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE THE CONTINUATION OF THIS WORK THROUGH FORD FAMILY FOUNDATION GRANT. THE WORK, TAKING PLACE DURING THE 2022 CALENDAR YEAR, WILL IMPLEMENT A PLAN FOR WRAPAROUND SUPPORT FOR TRANSFER STUDENTS BASED ON A CREDO AUDIT OF CAMPUS RESOURCES COMPLETED SPRING/SUMMER 2022. THIS AUDIT WILL RESULT IN A REPORT IN FALL OF 2022 THAT WILL PROVIDE EACH OF OUR MEMBERS WITH A TAILOR SET OF STEPS FORWARD TO IMPROVE TRANSFER PATHWAYS ON THEIR CAMPUSES. FURTHER, WE ARE WORKING WITH THE TEAGLE FOUNDATION ON AN IMPLEMENTATION GRANT TO CONTINUE THE WORK WE PERFORMED DURING OUR MAY 2020 "PATHWAYS TO THE LIBERAL ARTS INITIATIVE" GRANT FUNDED PROJECT. OREGON SCHOLARS PROGRAM INCENTIVIZES COLLEGE SAVINGS AND PROMOTES ENROLLMENT AT PARTICIPATING ALLIANCE INSTITUTIONSIN AUGUST 2019, THE ALLIANCE ANNOUNCED A NEW PARTNERSHIP WITH THE OREGON SAVINGS NETWORK (OSN) CALLED THE OREGON SCHOLARS PROGRAM. IN THIS PROGRAM, ANY OREGON COLLEGE/UNIVERSITY THAT CHOOSES TO PARTICIPATE DEVELOPS A PROGRAM SPECIFIC TO THEIR INSTITUTION TO PROVIDE A TUITION MATCH TO STUDENTS/FAMILIES WHO SAVE THROUGH ONE OR MORE OF THE OSN SAVINGS PLANS. IN THIS WAY, FAMILIES ARE INCENTIVIZED AND REWARDED FOR SAVING FOR COLLEGE, AND ENROLLING AT THE PARTICIPATING ALLIANCE MEMBER INSTITUTION IS PROMOTED.TO DATE, LINFIELD UNIVERSITY AND WILLAMETTE UNIVERSITY - BOTH OF WHICH ARE ALLIANCE MEMBER INSTITUTIONS - ARE THE ONLY INSTITUTIONS PARTICIPATING IN THE OREGON SCHOLARS PROGRAM. AT LINFIELD, STUDENTS WHO HAVE GRADUATED FROM AN OREGON HIGH SCHOOL OR HOME SCHOOL AND HAVE AN ACTIVE OREGON COLLEGE SAVINGS PLAN ACCOUNT FOR AT LEAST FOUR YEARS PRIOR TO ENROLLMENT RECEIVE A MATCH OF UP TO $500 PER SEMESTER FOR UP TO EIGHT SEMESTERS. AT WILLAMETTE, OREGON RESIDENTS ADMITTED TO A WILLAMETTE UNIVERSITY UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAM RECEIVE A MATCH OF UP TO $5,000 PER SEMESTER FOR UP TO EIGHT SEMESTERS. 1047370 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 5 0 3 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 14 14 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 OR X BRENT WILDER 5033420004 8215 SW TUALATIN SHERWOOD RD NO 200 TUALATIN OR 97062 BRENT WILDER PRESIDENT 40.00 X 137317 0 42498 MILES DAVIS CHAIR 2.00 X X 0 0 0 MARK SWENSON CHAIR (THRU: 9/16/20) 2.00 X X 0 0 0 LESLEY M HALLICK VICE CHAIR 2.00 X X 0 0 0 ROBIN E BAKER TREASURER 2.00 X X 0 0 0 AUDREY BILGER SECRETARY 2.00 X X 0 0 0 JOSEPH BRIMHALL MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 CHARLES CONNIRY MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 MELANIE HENRICKEN MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 BRIAN JOHNSON MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 DAVID K LYON MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 SHELDON C NORD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 MARK L POORMAN MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 RANDY ROBERTS MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 KRISTIN STATHIS MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 STEPHEN THORSETT MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 WIM WIEWEL MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 CRAIG WILLFORD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 JOSEPH WOMACK MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 137317 0 42498 1 0 1 0 0 63800 1084581 1148381 MEMBER ASSESSMENTS 900099 420000 420000 420000 8648 8648 2240 2240 18009 0 18009 18009 18009 3366 -3366 -3366 -3366 OTHER REVENUE 900099 1276 1276 1276 1595188 420000 0 26807 813414 813414 196513 78605 93523 24385 27877 12573 13910 1394 3432 1581 1851 3411 1603 1724 84 14849 6080 7132 1637 29950 29950 26431 26431 42000 42000 80168 48330 31200 638 1836 57 1379 400 4140 1365 2204 571 9705 4052 4719 934 58722 22524 30683 5515 75 75 10224 4181 5021 1022 4314 531 3652 131 MISCELLANEOUS 23359 6187 15648 1524 DUES AND SUBSCRIPTIONS 10725 4153 5556 1016 LICENSES & FEES 5271 134 5103 34 1366416 1047370 279761 39285 777854 452941 36500 334531 95177 50481 39595 32523 19204 7072 642716 1073620 358246 410083 1929697 2328728 58681 141705 257750 272296 63800 0 380231 414001 X 930374 1020912 619092 893815 1549466 1914727 1929697 2328728 X 228772 122256 14233 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 1177176 964158 943352 739251 1148381 4972318 1177176 964158 943352 739251 1148381 4972318 1380501 3591817 10354 14390 15197 10488 28897 79326 1613 40336 320 3092 1276 46637 5098281 3769870 0.70450 0.74350 X SCHEDULE A, PART II, LINE 10, EXPLANATION OF OTHER INCOME: OTHER INCOME 46637 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 42000 42000 1285131 1327131 207713 51928 0 0 235906 237070 217055 207713 897744 1346616 40800 41900 42000 42000 166700 58977 59268 54264 51928 224437 336656 11595 9273 2322 28000 23250 4750 7072 INTEREST IN A LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY 1073620 F 1073620 BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN PERPETUAL TRUST 99541 FUNDS HELD BY CASA OF OREGON 310542 410083 1769177 122256 37500 14233 173989 1595188 0 1595188 1403916 37500 37500 1366416 0 1366416 PART XI, LINE 2D - OTHER ADJUSTMENTS: INCREASE IN VALUE OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN PERPETUAL TRUST 14,233. 1 BUSHNELL UNIVERSITY 828 E 11TH AVENUE EUGENE OR 97401 930433696 501(C)(3) 86880 SUPPORT AND SCHOLARSHIPS CORBAN UNIVERSITY 5000 DEER PARK DRIVE SE SALEM OR 97317 941312349 501(C)(3) 52436 SUPPORT AND SCHOLARSHIPS GEORGE FOX UNIVERSITY 414 N MERIDIAN BOX 6029 NEWBERG OR 97132 930386839 501(C)(3) 42599 SUPPORT AND SCHOLARSHIPS LEWIS & CLARK COLLEGE 0615 SW PALATINE HILL ROAD PORTLAND OR 97219 930386858 501(C)(3) 61974 SUPPORT AND SCHOLARSHIPS LINFIELD UNIVERSITY 900 SE BAKER STREET MCMINNVILLE OR 97128 930391586 501(C)(3) 128311 SUPPORT AND SCHOLARSHIPS MULTNOMAH UNIVERSITY 8435 NE GLISAN STREET PORTLAND OR 97220 930398802 501(C)(3) 26973 SUPPORT AND SCHOLARSHIPS PACIFIC UNIVERSITY 2043 COLLEGE WAY FOREST GROVE OR 97116 930386892 501(C)(3) 23874 SUPPORT AND SCHOLARSHIPS REED COLLEGE 3203 SE WOODSTOCK BOULEVARD PORTLAND OR 97202 930386908 501(C)(3) 23874 SUPPORT AND SCHOLARSHIPS UNIVERSITY OF PORTLAND 5000 N WILLAMETTE BOULEVARD PORTLAND OR 97203 930401259 501(C)(3) 78187 SUPPORT AND SCHOLARSHIPS WARNER PACIFIC UNIVERSITY 2219 SE 68TH AVENUE PORTLAND OR 97215 930386890 501(C)(3) 228936 SUPPORT AND SCHOLARSHIPS WILLAMETTE UNIVERSITY 900 STATE STREET SALEM OR 97301 930386972 501(C)(3) 48686 SUPPORT AND SCHOLARSHIPS 11 0 PART I, LINE 2: GIFT TYPES - THE ALLIANCE TYPICALLY RECEIVES CONTRIBUTIONS IN THE FOLLOWING CATEGORIES DURING A GIVEN YEAR: UNRESTRICTED/UNDESIGNATED CONTRIBUTIONS - CONTRIBUTIONS THAT ARE NOT RESTRICTED FOR SPECIFIC PURPOSE(S) OR DESIGNATED FOR SPECIFIC MEMBER INSTITUTION(S) ARE DIVIDED AMONG THE MEMBER INSTITUTIONS.
