We hosted an Action Camp and trained 45 BIPOC leaders in kayaktivism, then supported a powerful action near the Summit of the Americas, demanding Zero Emissions Now! We utilized our projection gear and other creative tools to call for separation of church and state, progressive taxation, climate action, medicare for all, racial justice, ending single use plastics, stopping extinction, asylee protections, workers' rights and more. 90442 224 Our Solutionary Rail project champions rail in the public interest and researches and advocates for electrification, modeshift, and transmission of green energy along rail right of way. Solutionary Rail also, through its webinars and calls to action, helped to amplify the voices and demands of railroad workers as they prepared for a strike. In 2022, we did a deep dive into what it would take to transition the shipping of grain in SE Washington off barges and onto rail, in the event the lock and dam system of the Lower Snake River is shut down. Our research resulted in the "Trains Can Save Salmon Plan." It is a blueprint for a resilient and revitalized region in SE Washington, with connected freight and passenger rail. 8994 13485 Backbone Campaign executed a number of creative actions advocating for the restoration of the Snake River through breaching the four dams on the lower part of the river. We took props - puppets and banners - to Washington DC several times, showed up across the region with compelling imagery, bannered on overpasses, created Human Orca Murals with hundreds of people, and led processions in communities, to draw attention to the urgent need to stop extinction of orca and salmon. We received television coverage of our creative actions, as well as earned media in newspapers, from the New York Times to regional newspapers. 4845 1520 Education Events 7911 Local Resiliance 18132 814 Fiscal Sponsorship 30888 2334 234900 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 13 0 true 3 true false false false false false false false false false false X 9 9 false false false false true true false true true false false true true true true true true true true false OR WA X Moran Tax & Bookkeeping Services 5095907679 12729 N 172nd Lane Woodinville WA 98072 WILLIAM MOYER Executive Director 40.00 X 61835 0 5364 AMY MORRISON Deputy Director 40.00 X 60539 0 6661 MARGARET FLOWERS Director 1.000 X 0 0 0 DANIEL LEE Director 1.000 X 0 0 0 ANTHONY ROGERS-WRIGHT Director 1.000 X 0 0 0 JEFFREY SNYDER Director 1.000 X 0 0 0 BLAKE KREMER Director 1.000 X 0 0 0 RIVERA SUN Director 1.000 X 0 0 0 DAVID MCLANAHAN Treasurer 1.000 X X 0 0 0 YVETTE ARELLANO CoChair 2.000 X X 0 0 0 MARY LOU FINLEY CoChair 2.000 X X 0 0 0 122374 12025 false false false 203856 250 203856 Artful Activism 77047 77047 Education Events 1519 1519 Fiscal Sponsorship 814 814 Solutionary Rail 224 224 Save Wild Salmon 13485 13485 93089 4034 4034 3224 3224 6591 4673 1918 1918 0 306121 93089 7258 111 111 63850 52995 7024 3831 78522 65857 8096 4569 18684 15450 2079 1155 15003 11975 2185 843 1788 1788 5626 5626 22796 22462 334 1056 1056 5984 3543 2202 239 7235 2566 4669 4575 4575 17628 13013 4615 3149 3149 3137 3137 Program Expenses 44730 44730 Licenses, Taxes & Fees 5621 264 1914 3443 Dues & Subscriptions 898 487 411 Misc Expense 402 391 11 300795 234900 51815 14080 38378 54251 220106 2905 4018 223416 15742 4673 207674 155439 111903 418596 380751 3688 5526 3688 5526 X 414908 375225 414908 375225 418596 380751 5326 -45037 -27 55 X false false false X 288480 260465 248343 409622 203856 1410766 288480 260465 248343 409622 203856 1410766 204812 1205954 530 1348 1086 1032 7256 11252 3406 1918 5324 1427342 93089 0.84489 0.89429 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false false false false false false false 205701 2637 203064 17715 13105 4610 207674 Part VI Line 6 There are 6 members forming the Council of Electors.
