As part of our our third SHINE Program, JMF hosted Kaleidoscope; a two night community performance with eight like-minded nonprofits arts organizations that provided programming to students with different backgrounds and physical abilities. With over 100 performers and 2,500 audience members, our February event was a huge success providing additional granting opportunities and partnerships. In September 2024 JMF partnered with The Good Tidings Foundation to help renovate a dance studio for the Tierra Caliente Academy of Arts which hosts programming that cultivates personal identity, leadership skills, values and the power of self-initiative through the cultural arts. The renovation will allow dancers ages 7+ to learn traditional Folklorico dance along with other cultural dances. In the fall of 2024 JMF launched Gratitude Grants; a campaign for the public to nominate their favorite nonprofit for a programming grant. Over 1,000 entries were submitted and vetted with 25 grants of $3,000 awarded. 333733 true 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 true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 0 0 false 1 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 4 4 false false false false false false false true false false false true true true true true true false false false CA X Candi Newton 6198515452 PO Box 232639 Encinitas CA 920232369 X Jason Mraz President 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Christina Carano-Mraz Vice President 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Candi Newton Treasurer 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Connie Corn Secretary 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 0 false false false 0 1324711 10512 1324711 SHINE Program 182386 182386 182386 1249 1249 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1508346 183635 198800 198800 0 0 0 0 0 82060 32824 24618 24618 0 0 6357 2543 1907 1907 0 347 347 708 708 0 0 0 128 128 0 749 749 0 0 0 0 0 70 70 229 229 0 0 4486 4486 SHINE Program 99165 99165 Banking and Merchant Fees 2626 2626 PO Box Rental 282 282 Printing and Publications 273 273 240 240 396520 333733 36262 26525 531789 1642305 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 531789 1642305 1031 1031 0 X 530758 1642305 530758 1642305 531789 1642305 X 1111826 -279 X false false false X 348591 313647 82090 221493 1324711 2290532 0 0 348591 313647 82090 221493 1324711 2290532 0 2290532 876 596 763 961 1249 4445 0 0 2294977 0.99810 0.99730 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED true A Step Beyond 340 N Escondido Blvd Escondido CA 92025 462857532 10000 0 Program Support Banding Together 7370 Opportunity Rd Ste E San Diego CA 92111 364644986 10000 0 Program Support Diversionary Theatre 4545 Park Blvd 101 San Diego CA 92116 330240436 10000 0 Program Support Good Tidings Foundation 1469 Rollins Rd Burlingame CA 94010 943219013 30000 0 Program Support Monarch School Project 1625 Newton Ave San Diego CA 92113 330871354 10000 0 Program Support Other Orgs AtBelow 5K Each c/o PO Box 232639 Encinitas CA 92023 820691460 88800 0 Program Support San Diego Young Artists Music 4125 Alpha St Ste A San Diego CA 92113 330810289 10000 0 Program Support Tap Fever Studios 2146 Garnet Ave San Diego CA 92109 800177487 10000 0 Program Support Tierra Caliente Academy of Ar 1011 South Santa Fe Ave Ste J Vista CA 92083 462198172 10000 0 Program Support Wheelchair Dancers Organizati 4584 Calle de Vida San Diego CA 92124 271829176 10000 0 Program Support 10 0 Additional Supplemental Information Part 1, Line 2:Jason Mraz Foundation only considers requests from tax-exempt organizations that support programs for Arts Education and the Advancement of Equality.
