A STUDY SOME YEARS AGO BY THE INSTITUTE SHOWED THAT MEDICAL EXPENSES WERE ONE OF THE PRINCIPAL REASONS THAT LANDOWNERS MAY CHOOSE TO SELL OR SUBDIVIDE THEIR LANDS, AND THAT MOST LANDOWNERS ARE OLDER AND NEARING THOSE YEARS WHEN THESE DECISIONS ARE MADE. WHEN FORESTS ARE SOLD AND SUBDIVIDED THE VALUE OF CRITICAL SERVICES LIKE WATERSHED PROTECTION, WILDLIFE HABITAT, AND CARBON SEQUESTRATION, OFTEN DECLINE OR ARE LOST ENTIRELY. THROUGH THE FOREST HEALTH-HUMAN HEALTH INITIATIVE, THE INSTITUTE IS BRINGING MARKETS FOR CARBON CREDITS AND OTHER ECOSYSTEM SERVICES TO THE DOORSTEP OF FAMILY WOODLAND OWNERS, HELPING THEM KEEP AND IN-FACT IMPROVE THEIR WOODLANDS WHILE HELPING THEM FACE DOWN EMERGENCY AND OTHER HEALTH CARE EXPENSES. PARTICIPATING LANDOWNERS RECEIVE A NEW KIND OF DEDICATED DEBIT CARD, THE "ATREEM" CARD, WHICH ALLOWS THEM TO USE THEIR CREDITS TO PAY FOR A WIDE RANGE OF HEALTH SERVICES AND PRESCRIPTION MEDICINES. 466103 11428 4800 COMMON WATERS FUND: THE GOAL OF THE COMMON WATERS FUND IS TO PROTECT FORESTS CRITICAL FOR SOURCE WATER, THE WATER USED FOR DRINKING, ELECTRICITY GENERATION, MANUFACTURING, AND THE RICH ECOSYSTEMS IN THE RIVER. THE INSTITUTE IS WORKING DOWNSTREAM TO COLLABORATE WITH WATER UTILITIES AND OTHER MAJOR COMMERCIAL WATER USERS TO INVEST IN THE UPPER DELAWARE RIVER WATERSHED THAT PROVIDE CLEAN WATER. THE DELAWARE PROVIDES DRINKING WATER TO 1 IN 20 AMERICANS AND COUNTLESS BUSINESSES, YET THIS IS ONLY A FRACTION OF THE MANY VALUES IT PROVIDES. COMMON WATERS IS ALSO WORKING UPSTREAM, PROVIDING FOREST LANDOWNERS WITH FINANCIAL INCENTIVES TO SUSTAINABLY MANAGE AND CONSERVE FORESTS IN ORDER TO PROTECT SOURCES OF HIGH-QUALITY DRINKING WATER, AND REDUCE THE RISKS OF FLOODS AND DROUGHTS. THE ACCELERATION OF SUSTAINABLE FOREST MANAGEMENT IN THE UPPER DELAWARE RIVER REGION WILL CONSERVE CRITICAL SOURCES OF WATER FOR MANY USES AND MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WHILE ALSO BENEFITING WILDLIFE HABITAT, THE PRODUCTION OF FOREST PRODUCTS, AND THE VITALITY OF RURAL COMMUNITIES. 75730 ECOMADERA: THE ECOMADERA PROJECT WORKS IN CRISTOBAL COLON, ECUADOR TO CREATE LOCAL ECONOMIES BASED ON FOREST CONSERVATION. THE INITIATIVE BUILDS THE CAPACITY OF COMMUNITIES THROUGH TRAINING AND LOCAL INNOVATION, TO PROFITABLY AND SUSTAINABLY USE THE BIODIVERSE NATURAL FORESTS IN THE REGION. ECOMADERA PRODUCES HIGH-END WOOD PRODUCTS LOCALLY, THEREBY CREATING INCENTIVES FOR FOREST AND BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION BY OFFERING SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER PRICES FOR WOOD HARVESTED SUSTAINABLY THAN THE EXISTING MARKETS PAY FOR FOREST EXPLOITATION. BY CREATING HIGH-VALUE FINISHED PRODUCTS FROM SUSTAINABLY MANAGED TREES, ECOMADERA BUILDS SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES AND PREVENTS THE CONVERSION OF FORESTED LAND TO LARGE SCALE AGRICULTURE AND OTHER USES. 642418 11800 97836 OTHER VARIOUS PROGRAM SERVICES 642418 11800 97836 1317472 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 27 0 19 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 17 17 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 AL AZ AR CA CT DC GA MA MD ME MI MN MT NJ NM NY OR PA SC UT VA WA X X X THE ORGANIZATION 2027976580 1616 P ST NW NO 100 WASHINGTON DC 20036 J ROBERT HICKS 5.00 X 0 0 0 THOMAS B WILLIAMS 5.00 X 0 0 0 DR JULIE F GORTE 5.00 X X 0 0 0 CAROL COLLIER 5.00 X X 0 0 0 DR JOYCE K BERRY 5.00 X 0 0 0 GEORGE H BOHLINGER III 5.00 X 0 0 0 DALE BOSWORTH 5.00 X 0 0 0 DR HANNA J CORTNER 5.00 X 0 0 0 JACKSON F ENO 5.00 X 0 0 0 DR ROSS W GORTE 5.00 X X 0 0 0 LAWRENCE T HOYLE JR ESQ 5.00 X 0 0 0 NELS C JOHNSON 5.00 X X 0 0 0 JOSEPH MANCIAS JR 5.00 X 0 0 0 MALCOLM MCALPIN 5.00 X 0 0 0 NICHOLAS H NILES 5.00 X 0 0 0 JEREMY W PINCHOT 5.00 X 0 0 0 LARRY QUINN 5.00 X 0 0 0 DR V ALARIC SAMPLE 40.00 X 170500 0 30902 JENNIFER J YEAGER 40.00 X 83588 0 12376 254088 0 43278 1 0 1 0 0 4458 746217 817385 1568060 CORPORATE CONTRACTS 900099 155827 155827 PROGRAM INCOME 900099 7640 7640 163467 54 54 42300 42099 201 201 201 MISCELLANEOUS 900099 118 118 118 1731900 163467 0 373 9865 9865 13363 13363 297366 208981 80896 7489 464285 326288 126305 11692 17566 11751 5298 517 31559 19733 10723 1103 51006 34799 14791 1416 721 692 29 20837 285 20552 594974 589774 1200 4000 74945 19871 53522 1552 9937 5828 4109 78425 78425 37244 32525 4525 194 45832 34226 11606 8644 8644 DUES AND REGISTRATIONS 8353 3416 2490 2447 BAD DEBT EXPENSE 5000 5000 SUBSCRIPTIONS 4507 3212 1295 INDUSTRIAL FUNDING FEE 1075 1075 1775504 1317472 426327 31705 129917 119832 752919 692628 19200 23883 0 0 96628 93524 3532 3532 1002196 933399 251391 229223 251391 229223 X 299207 415362 445258 277264 6340 11550 750805 704176 1002196 933399 X -43604 -3025 X X 0 1 1 X 1 1 X 1441526 1471275 1826576 1538510 1568060 7845947 1441526 1471275 1826576 1538510 1568060 7845947 188700 7657247 3586 2680 8078 117 54 14515 5350 11526 18887 8652 118 44533 7904995 710103 0.96870 0.94230 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 6340 5210 11550 300 6040 6340 300 300 300 300 1.00000 0 0 0 1731900 1775504 -43604 -3025 -3025 -46629 1751275 -3025 22400 19375 1731900 0 1731900 1797904 22400 22400 1775504 0 1775504 DESCRIPTION OF INTENDED USE OF ENDOWMENT FUNDS: PART V, LINE 4: THE ORGANIZATION ESTABLISHED THE ENDOWMENT FUND TO HELP ENSURE THE INSTITUTE'S LONG-TERM FINANCIAL HEALTH AND WELL-BEING.
