The Alaskans for Energy Freedom Fund a diverse coalition of conservation, tribal, and citizen organizations - is working to prevent the impacts that developing this coal will have on the Earths climate, as well as on Alaskas lands, waters, and people. 849933 654050 More than half of the Tongass National Forest - the worlds largest remaining old-growth coastal temperate rainforest - has been compromised from decades of clear-cutting. ACF provides leadership and financial support to the Tongass Fish People Place Campaign a diverse alliance working to protect critical watersheds, promote forest management policies that engage local communities in forest planning, and support sustainable economic activities that depend on living resources. 338618 164942 Alaska Natives maintain their rich culture and traditions in close connection with the land, and because of this, they are among the first to feel the negative impacts of changes in the environment. Through the Alaska Native Fund, ACF supports Alaska Native individuals and organizations working to address critical conservation issues affecting their cultures, communities, and economic opportunities. 821927 477830 2035 3812389 true true false true false true false false false true true false false false true true true false false false false false false false false false false true true false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true 36 0 true 25 true true true false false false false false false false false false false false false X 19 19 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false AL AK AR CA CO CT DC FL GA HI IL KS KY ME MD MA MI MN MS MO NH NJ NM NY NC ND OH OK OR PA RI SC TN UT VA WA WV WI X X ANN ROTHE 9072761917 911 WEST 8TH AVENUE STE 300 ANCHORAGE AK 99501 ANDREA GRANT TRUSTEE 3.0 X ANNE M WILKAS TRUSTEE 3.0 X BONITA HOWARD TRUSTEE 3.0 X CAROL KASZA TRUSTEE 3.0 X CLIFTON EAMES TRUSTEE 3.0 X DAVID HARDENBERGH TRUSTEE 3.0 X DORENE SCHIRO TRUSTEE 3.0 X DREW CASON TRUSTEE 3.0 X JAMES DEWITT ALASKA VICE CHAIR & TREASURER 7.0 X X KERRY K ANDERSON SECRETARY 6.0 X X LEONARD STEINBERG TRUSTEE 3.0 X MARCIA LAMB NATIONAL VICE CHAIR 6.0 X X MARILYN SIGMAN TRUSTEE 3.0 X NANCY LORD TRUSTEE 3.0 X RHONDA L BENNON TRUSTEE 3.0 X RUTH WOOD CHAIR 15.0 X X STACY STUDEBAKER TRUSTEE 3.0 X VERNOR STOR WILSON III TRUSTEE 3.0 X DAVID ROBERTSON TRUSTEE 3.0 X ANN ROTHE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.0 X 106455 0 9288 CYNTHIA TISHER DIRECTOR OF FINANCE 40.0 X 82413 7319 188868 0 16607 1 false false false 0 26485 4476885 146241 4503370 ADMISSION FEES 900099 2425 2425 T-SHIRT SALES 448000 4140 4140 6565 146264 146264 0 0 0 0 0 1264597 1008179 256418 256418 256418 0 0 0 INVESTMENT REVENUE LTD 531390 1200 1200 1200 4913817 2425 1200 406822 2745194 2745194 18500 18500 0 0 99878 45744 31062 23072 0 987337 452200 307062 228075 71257 32636 22161 16460 82774 37910 25743 19121 91177 41267 28647 21263 30541 9263 10568 10710 32307 32232 75 84601 84601 0 0 51445 51445 154836 116537 10313 27986 31494 13208 18286 42507 22074 5334 15099 139068 111288 27780 0 133011 18173 113130 1708 134917 85110 24806 25001 0 65837 41175 14919 9743 874 100 774 0 22475 2635 19840 6226 400 5576 250 ANNUITY PAYOUT 9086 9086 LOBBYING EXPENSES 5833 5833 PROPERTY TAXES 2138 2138 MERCHANT BANK FEES 8683 573 8110 6582 4553 1220 809 5058578 3812389 800581 445608 621954 453967 1729785 1370961 314371 150562 104004 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 12284 30429 242322 65604 68423 176718 6493867 7476199 59218 62674 0 0 0 0 78185 76290 9482091 9797800 308331 173946 46000 27500 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 70836 67234 425167 268680 X 1647297 2086908 2368823 2094538 5040804 5347674 9056924 9529120 9482091 9797800 -144761 616957 X X false true X true false X 6426994 6684624 4000815 5756407 4503370 27372210 0 0 6426994 6684624 4000815 5756407 4503370 27372210 13645280 13726930 166830 159029 139389 471241 402682 1339171 1639 1255 1200 4094 6413 2680 3897 3890 6565 23445 28738920 0.47764 0.39530 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 16434 340 16774 5041804 5058578 402929 100732 434696 421565 469540 402929 1728730 2593095 7568 20346 26535 16774 71223 108674 105391 117385 100732 432182 648273 5976 17903 24705 16434 65018 5 16 2502 304368 24967 215446 682268 6656986 true true 6355566 306870 946371 240413 29140 7339254 5644188 252520 737366 250291 28217 6355566 5764447 14606 131812 237375 29302 5644188 4929251 157127 1079268 374869 26330 5764447 4423518 41060 548347 72300 11374 4929251 0.06000 0.94000 false false 154000 154000 88322 65604 22718 176718 0 Gift Annuity Liability 67234 67234 X 5530774 616957 616957 4913817 4913817 5058578 5058578 5058578 PART V, LINE 4: ACF'S ENDOWMENT FUNDS ARE USED TO SUPPORT THE FOUNDATION'S OVERALL MISSION TO ADVANCE ALASKA CONSERVATION.
