True breakthroughs will occur only through well-designed research projects and at Bay Area Lyme, we have a rigorous screening and monitoring process, grant contingencies, and project reporting, to ensure that projects are effectively designed and funds well spent. In 2018, Bay Area Lyme Foundation funded 7 grants averaging over a $125,000 per award to various institutions across the country. Among the awards was a multi-year joint grant to Stanford University and Tulane University to design and develop therapeutic antibodies for the treatment of Lyme disease. Ecology research projects included the citizen-scientist study to evaluate the prevalence of disease-carrying ticks throughout the United States. The study is based on a massive sample of more than 16,000 ticks collected from 49 U.S. states and Puerto Rico over a 20 month period. 175747 Bay Area Lyme offers free in-service education and training regarding tick-bite prevention to residential outdoor schools, outdoor environmental education, and professional outdoor program/field trip providers on-site. In 2018, Bay Area Lyme held 16 education and outreach events for the general public including 3 Speaker Series, 4 conferences to professional outdoor education organizations and many small in-service presentations to non-profit groups. 1229314 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false true false true false false false false false false true false false true false true false false false false false false false false true false false false false true true true false false true 14 0 true 1 true false false false false false true true false false false false false false X 3 2 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false CA X LINDA GIAMPA EXEC DIRECTOR 6505302439 884 PORTOLA RD PORTOLA VALLEY CA 94028 LAURE WOODS PRESIDENT, BOARD OF DIRECTOR 2.0 1.0 X X 0 0 0 BONNIE CRATER TREASURER, BOARD 3.0 0.2 X X 0 18100 0 SUSAN STREHLOW DIRECTOR 1.0 1.0 X 0 0 0 LINDA GIAMPA EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR/SECRETARY 10.0 30.0 X 227000 0 8484 227000 18100 8484 1 false true false DIANNE BARNEY 1729 LOS ALTOS DR SAN MATEO CA 94402 ACCOUNTING/FINANCE 130475 1 1426450 287412 255300 59477 1969162 0 31611 31611 0 0 0 0 0 2025900 2025621 279 279 279 125519 1426450 46728 78791 78791 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2079843 110681 918754 918754 0 0 0 60881 21810 39071 0 16100 16100 0 0 0 1520 1520 0 13956 1512 12444 28625 28625 0 0 16069 16069 383602 209692 173910 2869 2268 601 0 3938 3938 0 24126 10572 13554 20069 17577 2492 0 26850 11000 15850 0 0 0 5341 79 5262 OTHER OPERATING SERVICES 10457 2279 8178 BUILDING REPAIRS AND MAINTENAN 2853 1201 1652 SUPPLIES & EQUIPMENT 19608 14950 4658 CREDIT CARD PROCESSING FEES 31418 31418 1587036 1229314 357722 0 114201 263540 0 0 75420 104000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 10495 10220 11100 11100 1886983 2006028 0 0 100000 100000 0 0 22591 52561 2209690 2536349 65855 82428 782556 658157 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 848411 740585 X 497945 1315764 863334 480000 0 0 1361279 1795764 2209690 2536349 492807 -58322 X false true X true false X 744135 2583188 1411202 1068696 1969162 7776383 0 0 744135 2583188 1411202 1068696 1969162 7776383 3162239 4614144 71821 43170 15135 17169 31736 179031 0 0 7955414 0.58000 0.51096 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 11100 11100 0 0 X Part X, Line 2 U.S. GAAP requires the Organization to evaluate tax positions taken and recognize a tax liability if the Organization have taken an uncertain tax position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination.
