Since its founding in 1999, Seattle Parks Foundation has raised approximately $60 million to support community-led public space projects in neighborhoods across the city; these investments have leveraged at least three times as much in public sector support.We currently serve as fiscal sponsor for some 70 community groups championing new and enhanced park space, school playgrounds, tree canopy projects, pedestrian and bike trails, stream daylighting, and myriad other projectslarge and smallacross Seattle. We provide these Community Partners with the administrative, financial, fundraising, communications, and advocacy services they need to make our city a safer, more beautiful, and more welcoming place for all of us to live. In addition to supporting Community Partners across the city, we are concentrating efforts and resources on major, long-term green space initiatives in the underserved neighborhoods of Rainier Beach, Little Brook/Lake City, and the Duwamish River Valley. We are partnering with local groups and facilitating collaboration between these communities, other nonprofits, and city agencies to advance a coordinated public space agendaone that integrates equitable planning and investment into a comprehensive approach to community development. We have also been working for several years with both nonprofit and private sector partners to lay the groundwork for a dramatically revitalized Seattle Center. In 2018, we will begin implementation of Lake2Bay, which was added last year into the Citys Right-of-Way Improvements Manual. This green, pedestrian-friendly corridor will connect the new Seattle Center to a transformed central waterfront, the Olympic Sculpture Park, Denny Park, and Lake Union Park. In fiscal year 2017, donors to Seattle Parks Foundation contributed over $4.3 million to support this work. In addition, we awarded $253,000 from our Community Parks Fund to support the Urban Parks Activation Partnership, the Timber Fund/Occidental Park Pavilion, a pilot year for the Little Brook Youth Corps and a plan for daylighting Little Brook Creek in Lake City, and Link2Lake in Rainier Beach. We also used the Community Fund to match gifts to our Community Partners of up to $2,500 to encourage donor participation in GiveBIG, a national day of giving. 2029615 true true false true false false false false false true true false false false false false true false false false false false false false true false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 58 0 true 8 true false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 27 27 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false X X Shava Lawson 2063329900 310 1st Ave Suite 235 Seattle WA 98104 Bruce Blume Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Garrett Kephart Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jerry Tone Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ken Bounds Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Doris Koo Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ross Baker Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 David Victor Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Steven Clifford Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Maya Mendoza-Exstrom Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jodi Green Secretary 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Allegra Calder Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Brian Giddens Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Gerry Johnson Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Brad Kahn Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kyle McCoy Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Charlie Wright Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Carol Lewis Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Huong Vu President 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 John Nesholm Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Charles Nolan Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Howard Frumkin Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Beth Purcell Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 1770 0 0 Doug Raff Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Myra Tanita Vice President 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Chris Towne Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Carla Lewis Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Thatcher Bailey Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 158750 0 17623 Shava Lawson Finance Dir. 30.00 0.00 X 64269 0 8381 224789 26004 1 false true false 0 78137 488889 2841898 2413 3408924 Fees for Services 235510 235510 235510 138984 138984 0 0 0 2412966 2308343 104623 104623 104623 78137 3613 -3613 0 0 Gain on Donated Stock -364 -364 -364 3884064 339769 138984 0 0 0 0 250793 152738 53962 44093 0 451424 249110 93624 108690 0 63599 35429 12864 15306 53701 30609 11277 11815 0 0 0 0 0 27637 27637 49221 28365 15690 5166 0 10926 6228 2294 2404 23707 13513 4979 5215 0 33607 19156 7057 7394 2220 1332 888 0 0 0 0 5446 3104 1144 1198 4588 2616 963 1009 Neighborhood Parks Projects 1411627 1411627 Recognition/Cultivation Events 33639 14929 18710 Data Systems/Fundraising Fees 31921 18195 6703 7023 Meetings 26832 15294 5635 5903 44976 27370 -11434 29040 2525864 2029615 232395 263854 47077 65444 3071954 4035173 1049400 1259124 0 0 0 0 0 2564 5101 33617 21006 9957 12611 5382812 5541408 0 0 0 0 9563764 10918861 566536 120777 566536 120777 X 6476062 6951015 2303235 3625751 217931 221318 8997228 10798084 9563764 10918861 1358200 442656 X false true X true false X 1926341 2477799 2098745 2681568 3423470 12607923 0 0 1926341 2477799 2098745 2681568 3423470 12607923 72650 12535273 26231 119373 197751 218475 138984 700814 0 0 13308737 0.94190 0.87800 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false false false 234132 234132 351198 2184 2184 58533 58533 87800 2184 2184 5580103 3387 667451 92058 27637 6131246 5947530 1765 -118612 222974 27606 5580103 6138834 478 19832 182615 28999 5947530 5603383 750 691208 132261 24246 6138834 585311 5146842 -23663 104836 271 5603383 0.95700 0.03600 0.00700 false false false 33617 21006 12611 12611 4341676 442656 11343 3613 457612 3884064 3884064 2540820 11343 3613 14956 2525864 2525864 Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund.
