WE PARTNER WITH UNDER-RESOURCED COMMUNITIES TO ADVANCE EQUITY AND ACTIVATE THE UNREALIZED POTENTIAL IN THEIR NEIGHBORHOODS AND CITIES. WE REALIZE THIS MISSION THROUGH ADVOCACY, RESEARCH, PLANNING, AND BUILT WORKS. 0 0 1305394 918465 IN OCTOBER 2018, KDI COMPLETED CONSTRUCTION OF THE 5-ACRE NORTH SHORE COMMUNITY PARK, WHICH SERVES 3,500 RESIDENTS AND FEATURES SUSTAINABLE PLANTING, FITNESS AND GATHERING AMENITIES, AND PUBLIC ART SELECTED AND CO-DESIGNED BY RESIDENTS. IN THE NEIGHBORING COMMUNITY OF OASIS, KDI FINALIZED DESIGNS FOR A 14-ACRE PARK THAT WILL SERVE 6,800 RESIDENTS AND WILL SOON GO TO PUBLIC BID. TO IMPROVE ACCESS AND HEALTH, KDI CREATED THE EASTERN COACHELLA VALLEY'S FIRST COMMUNITY-DRIVEN ACTIVE MOBILITY PLAN, WHICH WILL BRING 70 MILES OF PEDESTRIAN AND CYCLING INFRASTRUCTURE TO A REGION WITH VIRTUALLY NONE. THE PLAN WON $6.8 MILLION IN COMPETITIVE STATE FUNDING AND MULTIPLE AWARDS FOR ITS INNOVATIVE COMMUNITY-LED APPROACH. IN LOS ANGELES, KDI CUSTOM-DESIGNED AN INNOVATIVE "KIT OF PARTS AND WORKED WITH CITY STAFF AND ELECTED OFFICIALS TO FINALIZE AND LAUNCH A PILOT PROGRAM THAT ENABLES RESIDENTS TO ACCESS VACANT LOTS AND TURN THEM INTO UNIQUE PUBLIC SPACES. WE ALSO PARTNERED WITH THE LOS ANGELES DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION TO IMPLEMENT THE SECOND PILOT PHASE OF PLAY STREETS, WHICH TEMPORARILY TRANSFORMS STREETS INTO SPACES FOR PLAY. A TOTAL OF 12 EVENTS WERE HELD WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE OF NEARLY 100,000 RESIDENTS. FINALLY, WE KICKED OFF A STATEWIDE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE PROJECT TO HELP 11 UNDER-RESOURCED MUNICIPALITIES CO-DESIGN PARKS WITH HIGH-NEED COMMUNITIES AND SUBMIT COMPETITIVE APPLICATIONS FOR STATE FUNDING. 593797 662 DURING 2018, KDI WORKED WITH RESIDENTS OF KIBERA, NAIROBI'S LARGEST INFORMAL SETTLEMENT, TO CO-DESIGN AND BREAK GROUND ON OUR 10TH PUBLIC SPACE IN THE AREA. UNDER A THREE-YEAR RESEARCH PROJECT WITH STOCKHOLM UNIVERSITY, KDI ALSO WORKED TO UNDERSTAND HOW COMMUNITY-DRIVEN, MULTI-FUNCTIONAL PUBLIC SPACES CAN ENABLE CLIMATE ADAPTATION. WE RE-ENGAGED A SCHOOL AT OUR 8TH PUBLIC SPACE TO DESIGN A NEW COURTYARD AND LANDSCAPE THAT CAPTURES STORMWATER, REDUCES FLOOD RISK, AND PROVIDES A SAFE BUT STIMULATING ENVIRONMENT FOR THE SCHOOL'S 400 CHILDREN. AT OUR 5TH PUBLIC SPACE, WE DESIGNED AND BEGAN CONSTRUCTION ON A NEW FOOTBRIDGE WITH THE CITY OF NAIROBI TO REPLACE THE EXISTING BRIDGE, WHICH HAD BEEN SEVERELY DAMAGED IN FLOODS, AND IMPROVE ACCESS FOR THOUSANDS OF RESIDENTS EVERY DAY. WE WORKED WITH THE KENYA FORESTRY RESEARCH INSTITUTE TO PROVIDE CARPENTRY TRAINING TO 11 YOUTH FROM KIBERA, PROVIDING THEM WITH VOCATIONAL SKILLS FOR A MORE STABLE AND SUCCESSFUL FUTURE; AND CONTINUED TO HELP LOCAL COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS BUILD AND MAINTAIN INCOME-GENERATING PROGRAMS SUCH AS MICRO-FINANCING AND WATER SALES. AS MEMBERS OF AN INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH CONSORTIUM, KDI PARTNERED WITH A UK FIRM AND THE KENYAN AND TANZANIAN METEOROLOGICAL DEPARTMENTS TO KICK OFF A NEW PROJECT IN NAIROBI AND DAR-ES-SALAAM THAT IMPROVES ACCESS AND USE OF WEATHER AND CLIMATE INFORMATION SERVICES IN INFORMAL SETTLEMENTS, HELPING RESIDENTS STAY SAFE AND BUILD RESILIENCE TO CLIMATE CHANGE. 48631 89000 KDI PARTNERED WITH THE WORLD BANK, ARGENTINA'S MINISTRY OF INTERIOR, THE CITY OF MENDOZA, AND STUDENTS FROM HARVARD GRADUATE SCHOOL OF DESIGN TO CARRY OUT RESEARCH ABOUT GENDER AND URBAN DESIGN IN INFORMAL SETTLEMENTS. WE DEVELOPED A REPORT AND A TOOLKIT THAT THE ARGENTINE GOVERNMENT WILL UTILIZE IN GENDER-INCLUSIVE SETTLEMENT UPGRADING PROJECTS ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND WHICH SERVE AS USEFUL MATERIAL FOR THE WORLD BANK'S GENDER TEAM. 20874 35409 KDI BEGAN PRE-DEVELOPMENT FOR A NEW COMMUNITY CENTER IN HOMESTEAD, FLORIDA, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE FARMWORKERS ASSOCIATION OF FLORIDA. 20874 35409 1968696 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 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 1 39 0 1 27 1 0 1 KE 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 7 4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 CA X CHELINA ODBERT 2139851222 309 EAST 8TH STREET 205 LOS ANGELES CA 90014 JENNIFER TOY SENIOR DIRECTOR 60.00 X X 87414 0 2423 JOE MULLIGAN BOARD MEMBER & ASSOC.

THE ORGANIZATION EVALUATES ITS UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS USING THE PROVISIONS IN CONFORMITY WITH U.S. GAAP. THESE STANDARDS REQUIRE MANAGEMENT TO PERFORM AN EVALUATION OF ALL INCOME TAX POSITIONS TAKEN, OR EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN IN THE COURSE OF PREPARING THE ORGANIZATION'S INCOME TAX RETURNS. MANAGEMENT BELIEVES THE INCOME TAX POSITIONS TAKEN MORE LIKELY THAN NOT WILL BE SUSTAINED UNDER EXAMINATION BY THE APPLICABLE TAX AUTHORITIES. EXAMPLES OF TAX POSITIONS INCLUDE THE TAX-EXEMPT STATUS OF THE ORGANIZATION AND VARIOUS POSITIONS RELATED TO THE POTENTIAL SOURCES OF UNRELATED BUSINESS TAXABLE INCOME. SINCE TAX MATTERS ARE SUBJECT TO SOME DEGREE OF UNCERTAINTY, THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE ORGANIZATIONS'S TAX RETURNS WILL NOT BE CHALLENGED BY THE TAXING AUTHORITIES AND THAT THE ORGANIZATION WILL NOT BE SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL TAX, PENALTIES, AND INTEREST AS A RESULT OF SUCH CHALLENGE.
