ECHO ACCOMPLISHES ITS PURPOSES BY ENABLING AND ENCOURAGING EMPLOYEES OF NORTHROP GRUMMAN TO MAKE CONTRIBUTIONS. ECHO ENCOURAGES WORKPLACE GIVING THROUGH TWO TYPES OF GRANT MAKING PROGRAMS. ECHO SOLICITS GRANT APPLICATIONS FROM COMMUNITY-BASED CHARITIES THAT SERVE THE NEEDS OF SEVERAL COMMUNITIES. AFTER THE APPLICATIONS HAVE BEEN REVIEWED AND THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS APPROVED THEM, ECHO MAKES QUARTERLY GRANTS OUT OF ITS COMMUNITY OUTREACH FUND. ECHO ENCOURAGES WORKPLACE GIVING BY ALLOWING EMPLOYEES TO ADVISE GRANTS FROM A LIST OF PRE-APPROVED PUBLIC CHARITIES THAT ECHO MAINTAINS ON ITS NETWORK. THE ECHO OFFICE REVIEWS THE PUBLIC CHARITY STATUS OF EACH ORGANIZATION. 0 1 1949049 1901837 IN 2019, THROUGH ITS WORKPLACE GIVING PROGRAM, ECHO MADE DONATIONS TO 2,167 IRS-APPROVED 501(C) (3) PUBLIC CHARITIES. IN ADDITION, ECHO'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS APPROVED 89 CHARITABLE GRANTS. ECHO DONATIONS ARE MADE POSSIBLE BY EMPLOYEE CONTRIBUTIONS AND ECHO'S COMMUNITY OUTREACH FUND. ECHO HAS 2,907 NORTHROP GRUMMAN EMPLOYEES PARTICIPATING IN CHARITABLE WORKPLACE GIVING.DURING THE COURSE OF 2019, THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS REACHED A CONSENSUS AND TOOK ACTION TO AFFIRM THAT DISSOLUTION OF ECHO AS ITS OWN 501C3 IS THE RIGHT PATH FORWARD IN ORDER TO EXPAND, SUSTAIN AND DEVELOP A MORE ROBUST WORKPLACE GIVING PROGRAM. WE HAVE PARTNERED WITH CHARITIES AID FOUNDATION OF AMERICA (CAF AMERICA) TO DISBURSE CONTRIBUTIONS (SCH O) MORE FREQUENTLY AS WELL AS THE ABILITY TO PROVIDE ELECTRONIC FUND TRANSFERS DIRECTLY TO THE NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS. THE TRANSITION OF ECHO TO CAF AMERICA WAS SEAMLESS AND TRANSPARENT TO DONORS AND DONEES WITHOUT DISRUPTION OF PAYROLL CONTRIBUTIONS. AN ECHO ADVISORY BOARD IS NOW IN PLACE AND CONTINUES TO STRATEGIZE AND DEVELOP THE ECHO WORKPLACE GIVING PROGRAM BEYOND THE ABILITY OF A STAND ALONE 501C3 ORGANIZATION. 1949049 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 12 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 CA X EMPLOYEES CHARITY ORGANIZATION 3108126245 ONE SPACE PARK REDONDO BEACH CA 90278 X X JEANNE MCGUIRK BOARD MEMBER (JAN-APRIL) 1.00 X 0 0 0 THEDA DIXON ASSISTANT TREASURER 1.00 X X 0 0 0 ALISON BAILEY CHAIR 1.00 X X 0 0 0 TODD BEALS VICE CHAIR 1.00 X X 0 0 0 ASHLEY PARKER SECRETARY (JAN-APRIL) 1.00 X X 0 0 0 TAMMY MALDONADO BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 DANNY COBB BOARD MEMBER (JAN-APRIL) 1.00 X 0 0 0 YASMA DUNKLEY BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 ANDREA JOHNSON BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 PATTI MOORE SEE SCH O 1.00 X X 0 0 0 CINDY DAVIS BOARD MEMBER (JAN-APRIL) 1.00 X 0 0 0 SUSAN FITZGERALD BOARD MEMBER (JAN-APRIL) 1.00 X 0 0 0 MICHELLE FOX BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 GREG METTIE BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 JEANNETTE GOODWIN BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 MEG KERMON BOARD MEMBER(MAY-DEC) 1.00 X 0 0 0 DAVE MESECHER BOARD MEMBER(MAY-DEC) 1.00 X 0 0 0 PHYLLIS GLOCK SEE SCH O 26.00 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1987912 1987912 6319 6319 1994231 0 0 6319 1901837 1901837 15727 15727 91500 91500 1465 1465 78687 47212 31475 BANK CHARGES 13168 13168 2102384 1949049 153335 0 0 940922 0 0 54922 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 359096 0 0 0 0 1354940 0 708057 708057 0 X 646883 0 646883 0 1354940 0 X -108153 40352 -579082 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 2377365 2122068 2290775 2012327 1987912 10790447 2377365 2122068 2290775 2012327 1987912 10790447 309569 10480878 12955 27555 7752 8441 6319 63022 10853469 0.96570 0.97700 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 1778992 2331846 0 1 1 0 X 2109683 40352 75100 115452 1994231 0 1994231 2756566 75100 579082 654182 2102384 0 2102384 PART X, LINE 2: ECHO IS A NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATION, DETERMINED BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE TO BE A PUBLIC CHARITY AND NOT A PRIVATE FOUNDATION, THAT IS EXEMPT FROM INCOME TAXES UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE AND SECTION 23701D OF THE CALIFORNIA REVENUE AND TAXATION CODE AND IS GENERALLY NOT SUBJECT TO FEDERAL OR STATE INCOME TAXES; HOWEVER, ECHO IS SUBJECT TO INCOME TAXES ON ANY NET INCOME THAT IS DERIVED FROM A TRADE OR BUSINESS REGULARLY CARRIED ON, AND NOT IN FURTHERANCE OF THE PURPOSES FOR WHICH IT WAS GRANTED EXEMPTION.
