THE SCOPES OF WORK FOR THE THREE CITIES ARE DIFFERENT: IN RIO, WHERE THE PROBLEM OF CHILD SEX TOURISM IS NOT ACKNOWLEDGED BY MANY ORGANIZATIONS OR THE TRAVEL INDUSTRY, THE PROJECT IS FOCUSED ON AWARENESS RAISING. IN RECIFE WHERE THERE IS A GREAT DEAL OF AWARENESS, THE PROJECT WORKS IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE WORLD CHILDHOOD FOUNDATION TO PROMOTE RESPONSIBLE ACTION ON THE PART OF THE TRAVEL INDUSTRY. IN MANAUS, DUE TO ITS PLACE AS A LAUNCHING POINT FOR A HIGH VOLUME ECO-TOURISM WHILE BEING A GATEWAY TO A DEVELOPING REGION OF THE AMAZON, BOTH RAISING AWARENESS AS WELL AS GETTING THE TRAVEL AND TOURISM COMPANIES TO PROMOTE RESPONSIBLE ACTION TOOK PLACE. FACING THE WORLD CUP IN 2014 AND THE OLYMPICS IN 2016, WHEN MILLIONS OF VISITORS WILL ARRIVE TO BRAZIL, LOCAL NGOS TOGETHER WITH THE GOVERNMENT ARE TAKING DIFFERENT ACTIONS TO PREVENT CHILDREN FROM BEING SEXUALLY EXPLOITED BY VISITORS. IN 2012 ECPAT USA SUPPORTED THESE ACTIVITIES INCLUDING THE DIFFERENT AWARENESS CAMPAIGNS, TRAININGS AND THE PROMOTION OF THE CODE OF CONDUCT AND THE PERNAMBUCO CODE OF ETHICS FOR THE PRIVATE INDUSTRY. 234773 94996 CODE OF CONDUCTIN THE UNITED STATES WE WORKED WITH RESPONSIBLE INVESTOR GROUPS IN CONTINUOUS DISCUSSIONS WITH LARGE HOTEL CHAINS AND AIRLINES ABOUT SIGNING THE CODE OF CONDUCT.

STATE SAFE HARBOR LAWS HAVE BEEN PROMOTED THROUGHOUT 2012 IN PARTNERSHIP WITH LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS. IN JULY 2012, ECPAT USA OFFERED TECHNICAL AND OTHER SUPPORT TO MINNESOTA'S ADVOCATES FOR HUMAN RIGHTS SEEKING TO EDUCATE LEGISLATORS ABOUT MINNESOTA'S SAFE HARBOR LAW. ECPAT USA ALSO SUPPORTED A NEW JERSEY ORGANIZATION HELPING TO EDUCATE AND ADVOCATE AGAINST TRAFFICKING (HEAAT) AND PROVIDED SUPPORT IN VERMONT IN ENCOURAGING THEIR LEGISLATURES TO PASS SAFE HARBOR.

AT THE END OF THE SCHOOL YEAR SEVERAL STUDENTS PARTICIPATED IN DESIGNING A WEB-BASED SERIES OF YOUTUBE VIDEOS TO PROMOTE AWARENESS OF COMMERCIAL SEXUAL EXPLOITATION OF CHILDREN AMONGST THEIR PEERS. UNFORTUNATELY, THESE VIDEOS WERE NEVER COMPLETED OR PUBLISHED DUE TO A LENGTHY PRODUCTION PROCESS AND WE WERE UNABLE TO RESTART THE CAMPAIGN AT THE START OF THE SCHOOL YEAR IN THE FALL. 138990 4280 759268 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 10 0 1 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 9 9 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 NY X X X CAROL SMOLENSKI 7189359192 30 THIRD AVENUE - SUITE 800A BROOKLYN NY 112172197 JOAN LEVY 1.00 X 0 0 0 ANA K MORSE 1.00 X 0 0 0 PERRY WOOTEN 1.00 X 0 0 0 BRENDA HEPLER 1.00 X 0 0 0 JACKIE SHAPIRO 1.00 X 0 0 0 SARAH ALTSCHULLER 1.00 X 0 0 0 HOWARD DAVIDSON 1.00 X 0 0 0 JAMI DAY 1.00 X 0 0 0 RYAN SMITH 1.00 X 0 0 0 CAROL SMOLENSKI 55.00 X 63000 0 23917 63000 0 23917 0 0 0 0 0 9499 31594 506348 547441 901 901 500 31594 500 0 OTHER REVENUE 900099 16894 16894 16894 565236 16894 0 901 X 4280 4280 94996 94996 86917 83452 3009 456 222943 214054 7719 1170 23503 22566 814 123 22570 21671 781 118 19573 3400 16173 554 554 234022 233897 125 330 80 250 26652 18188 5851 2613 19855 19254 601 34993 34688 305 2804 2692 97 15 1546 1546 OTHER EXPENSES 6444 2261 3406 777 POSTAGE AND MESSENGER 4192 2591 956 645 PUBLICATIONS AND VIDEOS 644 644 806818 759268 41078 6472 59014 73137 353023 302874 270630 48414 900 9797 14502 20042 17190 5656 2852 2500 4500 700620 447179 23806 11947 23806 11947 X 406183 421929 270631 13303 676814 435232 700620 447179 -241582 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 198726 536650 1095400 408723 537942 2777441 198726 536650 1095400 408723 537942 2777441 1317622 1459819 334 47 383 1076 901 2741 2318 21089 39731 59097 26393 148628 2928810 0.49840 0.75290 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 554 0 0 554 0 1808 1612 196 18234 15578 2656 2852 X 565236 0 565236 0 565236 806818 0 806818 0 806818 DESCRIPTION OF UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS UNDER FIN 48: PART X, LINE 2: MANAGEMENT HAS EVALUATED ALL INCOME TAX POSITIONS AND CONCLUDED THAT NO DISCLOSURES RELATING TO UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS WAS REQUIRED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 0 ASIA 0 0 PROGRAM RESEARCH AND ADVOCACY OF ELIMINATION OF CHILD PROSTITUTION, CHILD PORNOGRAPHY AND TRAFFICKING OF CHILDREN FOR SEXUAL PURPOSES. 94996 0 0 0 0 0 0 94996 0 94996 ASIA PROGRAM SUPPORT 94996 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 PROCEDURE FOR MONITORING GRANTS OUTSIDE THE U.S.: SCHEDULE F, PART I, LINE 2: WE REQUIRED QUARTERLY REPORTS ON ACTIVITIES DURING THE TIME PERIOD COVERED.
