In Nicaragua students support the development of Grow Biointensive MiniFarms at schools that serve as outdoor environmental classrooms and produce food for school lunches. In Ecuador, students support local ecoclubs in their efforts to reforest the surrounding community, planting approximately 25,000 trees per year. Students contextualize their work in a global environmental movement, and learn skills that they can take home to their own communities. 187893 GSE EcoactionPrograms: GSE works in three global communities (USA, Nicaragua, andEcuador) engaging local students in year round education and action to address climate change,food security and ecological degradation. GSE's unique program facilitates project based learning rooted in solving urgent ecological problems. Annually, GSE works with over 3,000 high school,university students, as well as with educators, administrators and communities supporting their schools. We believe schools can be central hubs of community engagementby supporting student growth and leadership, families, business leaders, nonprofits, and other community members invest in the health and sustainability of the community for years to come. 28405 South to North Exchange: Each January, scholarships enable student representatives from our partner communities to come to California to participate in our local exchange. Student ambassadors visit each of GSEs project sites and get involved with local students in the planning,maintenance, and expansion of projects. Students stay with host families and engage in activities focused on collaborative projects with GSE students in Northern California. GSE works to break stereotypes and remove cultural barriers through building friendships, working together and representing our local cultures. The exchange reunites friends, brings new momentum to local projects, and often is the first time that visiting students have been to another country. 1438348 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 10 0 false 13 false false false false false false true true false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 10 9 false false false false false false false true false false false true true true true true true true true false CA X X Trevor Stevenson 3076992931 Post Office Box 4456 Berkeley CA 94704 Oriet Cohen-Supple Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Lowell Haky Vice Chair 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Renee Fernandez-Lipp Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Genevieve Taylor Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Steve Gomberg Chairman 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ben Gordon Treasurer 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Deanne Clough Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 David Rust Secretary 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Brigid Wonder Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Trevor Stevenson Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mallory Bressler Interim Ex Dir 50.00 0.00 X 69528 0 0 69528 0 false false false 0 199690 4680 199690 Intangible In-Kind Income 67401 67401 Miscellaneous 4070 4070 Other ordinary Income 25108 25108 Program Income 1226250 1226250 Tangible In-Kind Income 22481 22481 1160 1160 1346470 201 201 0 0 0 0 4680 -4680 0 1028 2864 -1836 -1836 0 1539845 1344634 201 X 0 0 0 0 69528 55622 13906 0 495653 369063 62484 64106 0 13588 10210 1837 1541 49921 37512 6747 5662 0 0 0 0 0 0 50756 50756 0 1332 203 1063 66 4885 4885 0 13060 1135 11754 171 1341 1341 0 0 0 0 10181 10181 13257 9961 1792 1504 Exchange Trips General 469480 469480 Exchange Trips: Ecuador 160784 160784 Exchange Trips: Nicaragua 102671 102671 Ecuador Costs 69387 69387 186536 152320 8717 25499 1712360 1438348 175463 98549 68132 70916 145057 103456 0 78353 0 0 0 0 0 66307 0 50905 22766 38320 28139 0 0 0 0 8740 9340 404909 211851 38358 27315 1 38359 27315 X 335420 184536 31130 366550 184536 404909 211851 X -172515 -9499 X false false false X 43849 129824 248867 274471 199690 896701 432207 898085 1224561 1506046 1346470 5407369 0 0 0 476056 1027909 1473428 1780517 1546160 6304070 22915 6000 28915 0 22915 6000 28915 6275155 201 201 0 201 201 0 -6516 -6516 476056 1027909 1473428 1780517 1539845 6297755 0.99640 0.99530 0.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 50905 22766 28139 28139 true Nicaragua, Ecuador & Panama 0 3 Teaching and reforestation 0 3 3 false false false false false false Lucas Oshun ED Home rental false Ben Gordon Board Member Consulting false Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review Process GSE provides a third-party accounting firm with all necessary documents to complete Form 990.
