By hosting this forum, Oakland community members were able to learn where candidates for Mayor and School Board stood on education issues and their policy priorities in public education. The large-scale forum hosted over 250 audience members, was educational in purpose and enabled Oakland voters to make more informed decisions on election day and showcased our commitment to empowering parents and youth to be more civically engaged. Voter Outreach through Phone Banking and Neighborhood Canvassing: Recognizing the reality of low voter turnout in local races, we organized voter outreach efforts with our Oakland parents and youth. Through educational phone banking initiatives and door-to-door canvassing in various neighborhoods, our volunteers engaged community members, urging them to register to vote and sharing education data and asking them about education issues that mattered to them. These efforts increased voter registration and also increased awareness of the importance of voting in local school board elections individuals with the knowledge. These outreach efforts took place through 3 Saturday canvassing events and X phone banks.Research Action Meetings Led by Families: In addition to voter outreach, our parents and youth leaders coordinated and conducted nine research action meetings with candidates running for school board and city of Oakland mayor's office. The purpose of these meetings was to bring together parents and youth with candidates to go deeper into understanding the candidates and their platforms. These meetings provided a platform for dialogue, allowing families to ask questions, express concerns, and gain insights into the candidates' positions on key issues.Candidate Endorsement Recommendations by Empowering Families: Family leaders met to made recommendations on candidates to endorse for Mayor and school board. Candidate Endorsement Voter Outreach through Phone Banking and Emails: Through 6 phone banking sessions, our family fellows volunteers engaged local voters, urging them to register to vote and sharing the FIA4J recommendation about the candidates running for office. These efforts increased awareness of the importance of voting in local school board elections and empowered voters with the knowledge of the FIA4J endorsements. 53150 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 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 5 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 10 9 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 CA X Kimi Kean 5102030712 333 Hegenberger Rd 705 Oakland CA 94621 Kimi Kean CEO 1.00 39.00 X X 0 191420 28210 Leroy Gaines Sec/Treasurer 1.00 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Benjamin Cejas Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Maria Vargas Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Lana Chisley Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Niloy Gangopadhyay Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Rodolfo Ornelas Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Estafany Velasquez Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Hae-Sin Thomas Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Rich Harrison Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 0 191420 28210 0 0 1 0 0 300000 300000 300000 0 0 0 8000 8000 11000 11000 6170 4936 617 617 1130 904 113 113 472 378 47 47 902 902 3881 2381 1500 12300 7300 5000 1613 813 800 2285 785 1500 5153 5153 447 447 Reimbursed Directors' E 3000 3000 Meals 2894 2894 Promotional Material 2674 2674 Events 1481 1481 1493 1451 42 64895 53150 5968 5777 12307 279154 9500 177 21807 279331 22419 0 22419 X 21807 256912 21807 256912 21807 279331 235105 0 X 0 0 0 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 738 20 738 5000 5738 0 Nick Resnick Legal Defense Fund 150 Post St Suite 405 San Francisco CA 94108 921547618 5000 1 0 0 Part I-A, Line 1: Volunteers and paid staff made telephone calls in support of specific candidates running for elected positions. 1 1 1 Scholarships/Fellowships 34 11000 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Kimi Kean CEO 0 191420 0 0 0 0 0 4200 0 24010 0 219630 0 0 Part I, Line 3 The Board approves the CEO's compensation.
