Over the years, the Festival has received funding from both state and local arts commissions, local governments, corporations, and donations from the public at large. The Board of Directors provides strong financial oversight and its members come from diverse fields. The Chairperson is appointed by the Board and reports directly to them. The Chair appoints the Planning Committee which is composed of chairs of the various committees responsible for operations and programming. All Board of Directors and Planning Committee members are volunteers. The Festival's programming is known throughout the community, state, and region and regularly lands on lists of top events in the Phoenix metro area and Arizona. The strength of the organization lies in its diversity. The Festival enjoys strong support from local South Pacific Islander organizations such as cultural dance schools and performing groups, Hawaiian outrigger canoe clubs and other sports organizations, corporate supporters, donors, and more. The 2024 Festival provided a range of cultural activities to the public and to the collaborating partners. While accommodating some layout and programming changes per local requirements, we continued promoting South Pacific Islanders cultural diversity, diversity of the cultural art forms presented by our vendors, and a variety of South Pacific foods, both traditional and island-inspired. Over 150,000 people came to celebrate the Aloha Spirit and support the Festival through volunteering, shopping, eating, and being an enthusiastic and inquisitive participant in the event. 0 0 0 221506 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 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 2 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 7 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 X Robert Bacon 6026971824 2514 S Kachina Circle Tempe AZ 85282 X Varen E Berryman President and Director 5 0 X X 0 0 0 Joel N Madsen Vice President and Director 2 0 X X 0 0 0 Robert O Bacon Secretary/Treasurer and Director 8 0 X X 0 0 0 Laupanana W Iaulualo Director 2 0 X 0 0 0 Michelle M Herrera Director 2 0 X 0 0 0 Patricia L Novak Director 2 0 X 0 0 0 Lani Auwen Director 2 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2500 8004 0 10504 Vendor Fees 900099 148061 148061 0 0 Sponsorship Fees 900099 19405 19405 0 0 Soda, Water, Ice Sales 900099 21758 21758 0 0 Raffle Sales 900099 18725 18725 0 0 T-Shirt Sales 900099 13941 13941 0 0 8253 8253 0 0 230143 7187 7187 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 247834 237330 0 0 3120 3120 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 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4853 4853 0 0 4935 4935 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 0 0 0 8047 8047 0 0 Equipment/Venue Rentals 113408 113408 0 0 Police, Fire, Security, Safety Expense 37114 37114 0 0 Maintenance and Sanitation Expense 30153 30153 0 0 Soda, Water, Ice Expense 10354 10354 0 0 9522 9522 0 0 221506 221506 0 0 32346 4339 191347 242683 223693 247022 6000 3000 6000 3000 X 0 0 0 0 217693 244022 217693 244022 223693 247022 X 26328 0 0 0 0 1 X 0 0 0 X 11711 7467 7477 10891 10504 48050 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4500 4600 0 9100 11711 7467 11977 15491 10504 57150 0 57150 2641 524 522 2290 7187 13164 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 70314 247834 0.81278 0.85854 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 8b The Planning Committee is comprised of all volunteers.
