Today, most Caribbean countries have adopted a national sea turtle management plan, poaching and illegal product sales have been dramatically reduced or elimiated at key sites, many of the regions largest breeding colonies are monitored on an annual basis, alternative livelihood models are increasingly available for rural areas, and citizens are mobilized in support of conservativion actions. 143360 X 353813 353813 Dr Karen Eckert Director/Treas 15.00 0 Dr Scott A Eckert Director 3.00 0 Ray L Hobbs CHA Director/Pres 3.00 0 Dr Richard Meganck Director 3.00 0 Douglas Warmolts Director 3.00 0 false false false false false false false 0 0 0 false 0 0 false Dr Karen L Eckert 6116 High Meadow Drive Godfrey IL 62035 3149548571 false false false false false false false false false false false NONE NONE true X 942789 1531388 1847857 1478731 193197 5993962 0 0 942789 1531388 1847857 1478731 193197 5993962 0 5993962 0 0 0 5993962 1.00000 1.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Grants and Similar Amounts Paid In Excess of $5,000.1 | Donee's Name: Future Fishers | Cash Amount Given: $29300 Grants and Similar Amounts Paid In Excess of $5,000.2 | Donee's Name: Latin American Sea Turtles | Cash Amount Given: $7500 Grants and Similar Amounts Paid In Excess of $5,000.3 | Donee's Name: Nicaragua Sea Turtle Project | Cash Amount Given: $29681 Grants and Similar Amounts Paid In Excess of $5,000.4 | Donee's Name: KIDO Turtle Project | Cash Amount Given: $10000 Grants and Similar Amounts Paid In Excess of $5,000.5 | Donee's Name: Colorado State University | Cash Amount Given: $36000 Grants and Similar Amounts Paid In Excess of $5,000.6 | Donee's Name: CICTMAR | Cash Amount Given: $7173 Grants and Similar Amounts Paid In Excess of $5,000.7 | Donee's Name: Treasure Beach Turtle Group | Cash Amount Given: $8500 Grants and Similar Amounts Paid In Excess of $5,000.8 | Donee's Name: Sea Turtle Conservation Bonaire | Cash Amount Given: $9220 Grants and Similar Amounts Paid In Excess of $5,000.9 | Donee's Name: Various | Cash Amount Given: $5986 Other Expenses.1002 Office Expenses $2359 Other Expenses.1009 Depreciation $585 Other Expenses.1 Contract Labor $44560 Other Expenses.2 Program Expenses-Equipment $27027 Other Expenses.3 Program Expenses-Travel $23230 Other Expenses.4 Program Expenses-Misc $17691 Other Expenses.5 Miscellaneous $17680 Other Expenses.6 Repairs and Maintenance $16405 Other Expenses.7 Communications $7636 Other Expenses.8 Program Expenses-Software $2756 Other Expenses.9 Program Expenses-Supplies $1827 Other Expenses.11 Program Expenses-Training $1296 Other Expenses.12 Bank Charges $102 Other Assets.1003 Machinery and Equipment - Beginning $1464 Machinery and Equipment - Ending $879
