We funded their Pangolin Rescue Rehabilitation & Release (P3R, leapspiral.org/sundapangolins) program, their Lower Kinabatangan & Segama Wetlands (LKSW, leapspiral.org/lowerkinabatangansegamawetlandsprogramme) program, their Carbon Sovereign Sabah (CSS) climate responsibility initiative, and their long running forestry and great ape biodiversity health programs. Our boots-on-the-ground costs below helped keep pangolins in the news, encourage wetlands restoration, prevented foreign corporate climate greenwashing, and engaged wide ranging demographics around forest, ape and water programs, the essential values of biodiversity, cultural participitory wisdom, environmental resilience, and economic sustainability all supporting entrepreneurial growth opportunities. 288274 253867 0 With our 2022 funding and support, our Malaysian partner Forever Sabah's (FS, foreversabah.org) 25 year initiative of a civil society supporting Sabah's transition to a diversified, equitable, living economy is thriving. 100% of Oregon State University income through us supported FS's iterative success training model for rapid "lessons learned" wisdom incorporation. We granted other income for FS's Human Elephant Harmony (HEH, foreversabah.org/human-elephant-harmony) that helped HEH's citizen science and Community Elephant Ranger Teams settle into targeted data collection that continues to grow human acceptance and even appreciation of wild elephant neighbors. Also new donations went to FS's Rice Revitalization Partnership that has energized a wide demographic to produce diverse legacy high-value rice for local and international consumption in a vertically integrated collective business model that both harvests and grows local livelihoods. Our own mitigation and strategic innovation salary and Zoom costs for FS programs in the face of COVID-19 finalized our below FS support expenses. 25154 0 0 Surprisingly, it was not necessary to solicit donations for, or grant supporting funds directly to, the KampOng Campus for Ecoliteracy and Leadership (KampOng). The outside-in classroom model has both raised and deepened learning on a planetary scale with our staff's and others' networking and facilitation of deeply productive meeting space that has invariably breed collaboration and peer wisdom harvesting among youth-minded next-gen leaders. We did fund eight sage elders and subject matter experts honorariums for KampOng's continuing alternate monthly Mountaintop vertical literacy and Valley horizontal literacy gatherings. Individual epiphanies born from such an environment are helping institutionalize LEAP's proven planetary approach to human development. Our expenses below were just the honorariums and our apportioned staffing costs which supported locally grown talent taking up the mantle of community engagement and stewardship. 3000 3000 0 Grant covering Malaysian government fees for LEAP Conservancy, a social organization, for several years of dormancy. 3000 3000 0 620463 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 3 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 4 2 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 CA X Mark Stafford 9255860839 4916 Rainbow Dr Weed CA 960949399 Cynthia Ong Executive Director 20 20 X X 78180 0 0 Kenneth Wilson Trustee, Secretary 15 25 X X 24000 0 0 Mark Stafford Admin, CFO 10 0 X 4800 0 0 Caroline Gabel President 4 0 X 0 0 0 Daniel Kammen Board Member 1 0 X 0 0 0 Margaret Lowman Board Member 1 X 0 0 0 106980 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 324377 0 324377 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 324377 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 529048 529048 0 0 106980 82944 14378 9658 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 8184 0 8184 0 0 0 0 0 200 0 200 0 1600 0 1600 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 7118 7118 0 0 0 0 0 0 1477 1353 4 120 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3305 0 3305 0 0 657912 620463 27671 9778 445974 363934 0 0 251337 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1636 1982 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 698947 365916 124 2551 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1923 2047 2551 X 0 0 0 0 696900 363365 696900 363365 698947 365916 -333535 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X 379258 561796 1181325 262159 324377 2708915 650 650 650 662 0 2612 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 379908 562446 1181975 262821 324377 2711527 0 326325 0 0 0 326325 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 326325 0 0 0 326325 2385202 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 379908 562446 1181975 262821 324377 2711527 0.87965 0.89596 0 0.00009 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 1 East Asia and the Pacific 0 0 Grantmaking eco-socio-enviro development 529048 0 0 529048 East Asia and the Pacific diversified equitable economy 75000 wire 0 East Asia and the Pacific Carbon Sovereign Sabah 45000 wire 0 East Asia and the Pacific Pangolin 3R 25000 wire 0 East Asia and the Pacific Human Elephant Harmony 80000 wire 0 East Asia and the Pacific Ape Jobs Habitat 100844 wire 0 East Asia and the Pacific FS - OSU enviro-education 23887 wire 0 East Asia and the Pacific diversified equitable economy 75000 wire 0 East Asia and the Pacific Ape Jobs Habitat 101337 wire 0 7 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 Schedule F, Part I, Line 2 All grantees are required to prepare reports which cover accomplishments, expenditures and lessons learned from their granted projects. Some grantees also have their financial statements audited within their country. Reports are required to be available for several to seven years after grant completion. Additionally, informal interim progress conversations (phone, email, Zoom, face-to-face) are encouraged and pursued. Also, interim and final reports are forwarded to our primary funding sources.

The narrative portions of this Form 990 are collaborative. We employ an e-filing service to better ensure complete inclusion of required forms and documentation. Finally, this from 990 will be distributed to the board as soon as possible for additional review, questions, and clarifications prior to final e-filing. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19 Governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements are always available upon verbal, written, or electronically transmitted request in requestor's preferred reception method. Form 8868 Request for Extension was e-filed 4-30-2023 and received "accepted" reply. Then I had an Alaska vacation followed by a Bali and a work related Sabah Malaysia vacation. Then my mother-in-law passed (having had a long and great life) and we spent months remediating deferred maintenance on her reverse mortgage home in an effort to sell before loosing equity to bank. As of today, the house is still listed for sale and the bank is still winning. Good news though: our dog did not eat any drafts, worksheets or other financial papers involved in compiling this Form 990 and attendant forms.
