$109,777$0$0PUBLIC EDUCATION: MPP Foundation engaged in a range of activities to build support for MPP Foundation's mission among the public, including (1) updating the Web site (www.mpp.org), (2) producing brochures and briefing papers, (3) responding to email inquiries from the public, (4) giving speeches, and (5) tabling at events.
$95,451$0$0CONFERENCES AND COALITIONS: MPP Foundation's staffers attended and spoke at conferences, reached out to potential allies outside of conference settings, and strengthened relationships with existing allies for the purpose of building a stronger national coalition to end marijuana prohibition. Specifically, MPP Foundation participated in conferences hosted by the Cato Institute, Reason Foundation, the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws, the Drug Policy Alliance, FreedomFest, the National Conference of State Legislatures, and a few smaller organizations.
$76,029$0$0NEVADA ORGANIZING: MPP Foundation began organizing a statewide coalition in support of the ultimate goal of regulating marijuana like alcohol in Nevada.
$62,651$0$0VERMONT LOBBYING: MPP Foundation decriminalized the possession of marijuana via the Vermont Legislature, and the bill was signed into law by Gov. Peter Shumlin (D). As a result, Vermont now has a law that imposes tickets and fines -- rather than arrests and jail -- for people who are apprehended with a small amount of marijuana for personal use.
$58,668$17,500$0COLORADO IMPLEMENTATION: In the wake of MPP Foundation's 2012 campaign that succeeded at regulating marijuana like alcohol in Colorado, MPP Foundation continued the fight in 2013 by working with Gov. John Hickenlooper's (D) task force to implement fairly the initiative that 55% of Colorado voters had passed.
$57,937$0$0MAINE ORGANIZING: MPP Foundation maintained a full-time presence in Maine (with an office outside of Portland), for the purpose of building a statewide coalition in support of regulating marijuana like alcohol in Maine.
$44,755$10,000$0ILLINOIS IMPLEMENTATION AND ORGANIZING: After the enactment of the medical-marijuana law in June 2013, MPP Foundation began the process of working with the Illinois executive branch to implement the new law. In addition, MPP Foundation began building a statewide coalition to decriminalize marijuana possession.
$37,376$0$0THREE EVENTS: MPP Foundation held three so-called "fundraising events" in 2013 that were really intended to strengthen coalitions among key partners in the battle to end marijuana prohibition in the United States. (As can be seen in Schedule G, the three so-called "fundraising events" raised a combined net of only $8,213; this low profit was expected.) These three events were held in Los Angeles in June, New York City in September, and San Francisco in October.
$35,980$0$0MINNESOTA LOBBYING: Recovering from the veto of the medical-marijuana bill in 2009, MPP Foundation reinvigorated its lobbying effort in St. Paul, with the hope of escaping another veto (by a new governor) in 2014.
$33,616$0$0ALASKA ORGANIZING: MPP Foundation began organizing a statewide coalition to support the ultimate goal of regulating marijuana like alcohol in Alaska. (Presumably, the vehicle for this will be the Campaign to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol in Alaska, which will be placing an initiative on the August 2014 or November 2014 ballot in Alaska.)
$29,596$0$0MINNESOTA ORGANIZING: MPP Foundation retained a former MPP employee to serve as the lead organizer in Minnesota, for the purpose of building public support for the eventual passage of medical-marijuana legislation in Minnesota.
$29,051$0$0OREGON ORGANIZING: MPP Foundation retained one of the spokespersons from the failed legalization-initiative campaign in Oregon (which received 47% of the vote in November 2012) to build additional public support in Oregon, with the idea of regulating marijuana like alcohol in Oregon in a few years. Unfortunately, when local leaders made it clear that they intended to place an initiative on the November 2014 ballot, MPP Foundation withdrew from the state, deeming that date probably (but not definitely) too soon for passage.
$26,183$0$0GRASSROOTS LOBBYING IN TARGETED AND NON-TARGETED STATE LEGISLATURES: MPP Foundation issued state-specific email alerts to MPP's and MPP Foundation's email subscribers in most states (and otherwise updated the organization's 50 state Web pages) for the purpose of inducing supporters to contact their elected officials in many of the 50 states.
$24,127$0$0ILLINOIS LOBBYING: After 11 years of lobbying in Springfield, MPP Foundation finally enacted a medical-marijuana bill in Illinois in 2013. The final bill passed the state House with a 61-57 vote, passed the state Senate by a 35-21 vote, and was signed by Gov. Pat Quinn (D) on August 1. As a result, Illinois became the 20th state to legalize medical marijuana.
$21,753$0$0NEW HAMPSHIRE LOBBYING: After 11 years of lobbying in Concord, MPP Foundation finally enacted a medical-marijuana bill in New Hampshire in 2013. The final bill passed the state House with a 284-66 vote, passed the state Senate by an 18-6 vote, and was signed by Gov. Maggie Hassan (D) on July 23. As a result, New Hampshire became the 19th state to legalize medical marijuana.
$20,640$0$0CALIFORNIA ORGANIZING: MPP Foundation assisted a large coalition with building support for the state licensing of medical-marijuana businesses in California. Simultaneously, MPP Foundation continued the never-ending process of organizing a statewide coalition to regulate marijuana like alcohol in California.
$20,628$0$0RHODE ISLAND LOBBYING: MPP Foundation succeeded at passing a marijuana-decriminalization bill through the Rhode Island Legislature in 2012; the bill took effect in April 2013. In addition, MPP Foundation lobbied the state legislature to make marijuana legal for adults aged 21 and older, similar to the Colorado law that MPP passed in November 2012; this lobbying campaign in Rhode Island is expected to last until at least 2015.
$19,787$0$0MARYLAND ORGANIZING: Building upon the legislative progress in Maryland between 2000 and 2012, MPP Foundation began working with in-state allies (such as the ACLU and the NAACP) to build support for marijuana-policy reform in Maryland. Please see <www.marijuanapolicyinmd.org>.
$17,451$5,000$0RHODE ISLAND ORGANIZING: In part through a $5,000 grant to Open Doors Rhode Island, MPP Foundation worked to build a statewide coalition in favor of regulating marijuana like alcohol in Rhode Island.
$17,273$0$0DELAWARE IMPLEMENTATION: MPP Foundation continued working with the executive branch of Delaware to fully implement the state's medical marijuana law, which was enacted in 2011.
$11,057$0$0D.C. IMPLEMENTATION: MPP Foundation continued to work with the executive branch of the D.C. city government to implement the medical-marijuana law which D.C. voters originally passed in November 1998, and which was unfortunately narrowed by the D.C. city government in 2010.
$11,000$11,000$0GRANTS PROGRAM: MPP Foundation awarded a $5,000 grant to the Cato Institute, as well as a $1,000 grant to Reason Foundation, because both organizations are injecting crucial libertarian/conservative arguments into the public discourse as to why marijuana prohibition needs to end. In addition, MPP Foundation issued a $5,000 grant to Compassionate Idaho, for the purpose of building a statewide coalition to legalize medical marijuana in Idaho.
$10,696$0$0VERMONT ORGANIZING: MPP Foundation began organizing a statewide coalition to support the ultimate goal of regulating marijuana like alcohol in Vermont.
$10,000$0$0DELAWARE LOBBYING: After legalizing medical marijuana in Delaware in 2011, MPP Foundation maintained a low-level lobbying program in Dover in 2013, with the goal of ensuring that at least three medical-marijuana dispensaries are permitted to open in the state.
$6,902$200$0WEST VIRGINIA ORGANIZING: MPP Foundation launched the beginning of a multi-year coalition-building effort, for the purpose of legalizing medical marijuana through the West Virginia Legislature sometime between 2015 and 2017.
$5,050$0$0COLORADO LOBBYING: In the wake of MPP Foundation's 2012 campaign that succeeded at regulating marijuana like alcohol in Colorado, MPP Foundation continued the fight in 2013 by lobbying the Colorado Legislature and city governments to implement fairly the initiative that 55% of Colorado voters had passed. As expected, many city governments didn't immediately take action, but the governor's task force, the state legislature, the Denver city council, and other city councils faithfully implemented the will of the voters, setting the stage for marijuana to be sold to people 21 and older starting on January 1, 2014.
$3,330$0$0MASSACHUSETTS ORGANIZING: MPP Foundation began organizing a statewide coalition to support the ultimate goal of regulating marijuana like alcohol in Massachusetts.
$2,016$0$0MONTANA ORGANIZING: With the hiring of a staff attorney in Missoula, MPP Foundation began the long-term process of organizing a statewide coalition to support the ultimate goal of regulating marijuana like alcohol in Montana.

d$400,000Over the course of 2013, MPP repaid part of its debt to MPP Foundation, reducing MPP's debt from $1,100,000 to $400,000. In so doing, MPP also paid MPP Foundation $29,000 in interest (which is a 4.0% interest rate, computed monthly). Looking to the future, the goal is for MPP to repay the final $400,000 (plus interest) by the end of 2014.

n$75,000MPP and MPP Foundation shared office space and therefore a photocopier, fax machine, printers, phones, and other equipment. Regardless, each organization paid its own share of the rent, the purchase of equipment, and the rental of equipment. So the $75,000 figure that's reported here is really just an estimate of the value of resources that were shared; there was no transfer of $75,000 from one organization to the other.

o$500,000MPP and MPP Foundation shared numerous employees. Regardless, each organization paid its own share of the salaries, taxes, and benefits for each organization's "partial employees." So the $500,000 figure that's reported here is really just an estimate of the value of resources that were shared; there was no transfer of $500,000 from one organization to the other.

s$12,000MPP rented MPP Foundation's dues-paying membership list for $12,000, for the purpose of mailing a handful of fundraising mailings to MPP Foundation's donors. (The going rate for such rentals of other organizations' mailing lists is 10 cents/member, so MPP was entitled to rent 120,000 of MPP Foundation's members over the course of all MPP mailings in 2013; instead, MPP mailed to only 50,000 or so.)
