THE PAJMZ BUILDING HAS 20 INTERACTIVE SCIENCE EXHIBITS AND A SMALL ZOO, FEATURING 200 LIVE SPECIMENS REPRESENTATIVE OF 50 ANIMAL SPECIES, MANY OF THEM LOCAL RESCUES. THE FRIENDS OF THE PAJMZ WORKS CLOSELY WITH THE CITY OF PALO ALTO TO PROVIDE FREE SCIENCE EDUCATION CLASSES TO STUDENTS AT FOUR ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS IN EAST PALO ALTO, WHERE BUDGETARY CUTS HAVE ELIMINATED MANY OF THE SCIENCE PROGRAMS. MORE THAN 1,600 ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENTS PARTICIPATE IN THE PROGRAM. IN ADDITION, THE FRIENDS OF THE PAJMZ RAISES FUNDS FOR THE UPKEEP AND MAINTENANCE OF ZOO AND MUSEUM FACILITIES AND NEW EXCITING EXHIBITS.IN FISCAL YEAR 2018, THE FRIENDS OF THE JMZ FINALIZED THE DESIGN OF THE NEW $25 MILLION FACILITY AND ITS AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF PALO ALTO TO REBUILD AND MODERNIZE THE JMZ. THE COLLABORATIVE EFFORT RESULTED IN THE GROUNDBREAKING AND DEMOLITION SHORTLY AFTER THE CLOSE OF THE YEAR. THE ANTICIPATED COMPLETION DATE OF THE NEW AND IMPROVED FACILITIES IS APPROXIMATELY FALL 2020. THE LARGER, GREENER JMZ FACILITY WILL CORRECT STRUCTURAL AND SAFETY DEFICIENCIES THAT INHIBIT THE JMZ'S OUTREACH AND HAMPER ITS ESSENTIAL SCIENCE EDUCATION. WITH ENLARGED SPACE AND IMPROVED FACILITIES, SCIENCE PROGRAMMING WILL BE SCALABLE TO MEET THE GROWING NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY. THE NEW BUILDING, SCIENCE EXHIBITS, AND ZOO WILL ENHANCE THE VISITOR EXPERIENCE FOR ALL AGES AND LEARNING STYLES, WHILE RETAINING THE INTIMATE ENVIRONMENT THAT MAKES THE JMZ A BELOVED COMMUNITY RESOURCE. THE JMZ INITIATIVE WILL MAKE IT POSSIBLE TO KEEP THIS CHILD-SIZED, LEARN-THROUGH-PLAY RESOURCE VIABLE FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS. 12397758 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 11 0 1 7 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 17 17 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 CA X FINANCAL ADMINISTRATIVE SUPPORT SERVICES 4085138703 3315 ALAMEDA EXPWY SUITE 10 SAN JOSE CA 95050 X CAROLYN AMSTER BOARD TREASURER 5.00 X X 0 0 0 WILEY ANDERSON BOARD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 LAUREN ANGELO BOARD CO-PRESIDENT 12.00 X X 0 0 0 KELLY BAVOR BOARD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 ANNETTE BIALSON BOARD MEMBER 7.00 X 0 0 0 ALETHA COLEMAN BOARD PRESIDENT 6.00 X X 0 0 0 STEVE EMSLIE BOARD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 ANDREA HELFT BOARD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 PAUL HOPKINS BOARD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 JON KIYA BOARD MEMBER 3.00 X 0 0 0 MARSHALL KOCH BOARD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 MARK MURRAY BOARD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 STEVE RELLER BOARD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 JANE RYTINA BOARD SECRETARY 1.00 X X 0 0 0 CHRIS SKARAKIS BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 TIM STITT BOARD MEMBER 20.00 X 0 0 0 MARIAELENA COMAROTO BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 27160 320902 1302530 1650592 283136 283136 625851 347497 897 278354 -897 277457 277457 2211185 0 0 560593 X 160540 46711 55888 57941 14879 2415 7133 5331 11660 2823 4494 4343 39100 39100 65944 65944 12235748 12231748 4000 7034 505 52 6477 2971 61 2838 72 4235 1878 2357 276 276 13188 4782 4836 3570 731 731 10247 2801 4510 2936 CLASS INSTRUCTION 99897 99897 FEES & CHARGES 9152 222 2469 6461 MEMBER EVENTS 1799 1233 566 5248 4560 688 12682649 12397758 194837 90054 890064 489901 4672572 1362361 419882 374928 3179 137907 6118 5068 3038 1050 20295674 15845784 26284409 18211931 655178 2907326 655178 2907326 X 1216468 1596636 24412763 13707969 25629231 15304605 26284409 18211931 X -10471464 119831 27007 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 4480703 13362893 6900520 3467531 1650592 29862239 4480703 13362893 6900520 3467531 1650592 29862239 15069718 14792521 31375 75913 85192 166828 283136 642444 30504683 0.48490 0.46070 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 6118 5068 1050 1050 X 2371010 119832 78930 198762 2172248 65944 -27007 38937 2211185 12695636 78931 78931 12616705 65944 65944 12682649 PART X, LINE 2: THE ORGANIZATION HAS ADOPTED THE ACCOUNTING STANDARD RELATED TO UNCERTAINTIES IN INCOME TAXES.
