This is the first-ever comprehensive pre-kindergarten through grade 12 program school-based prevention and personal safety curriculum. The funds were used to research best practices, consult with career educators, administrators, mental health professionals, and developmental psychologists to develop educationally sound, research-based materials aligned to Florida state education standards. Funds were also used to produce animated videos and digital curriculum modules for children, parents and educators. 1579160 12550 99372 The organization developed an educational brochure regarding protecting children against sexual abuse that is included in 8-10 million vehicle registration renewals. Since 95% of childhood sexual abuse is preventable through education and awareness, the goal is to reach as many individuals with direct messaging as possible. The program that allows Lauren's Kids to provide an educational insert in motor vehicle registration renewal notices assures that over 8 million individuals will read the material this year. In December of each year a targeted program occurs in driver's license renewal offices where close to 500,000 individuals are provided with educational materials on how to better protect our children from predators and pedophiles. The organization wrote books entitled "It's Ok to Tell and "Lauren's Kids" which is intended to educate people about abuse. In addition the organization incurs expenses in delivering education materials and class work on the subject of abuse 19328 The organization puts on an annual walk to raise awareness about child sexual abuse and encourages those who have been abused to speak up. The walk is called "42 Hours for the 42 Million at the Florida Capitol". There are 42 million survivors of child sexual abuse living in the United States today and 75% of child sexual abuse victims don't tell anyone for at least a year. 45% do not tell for at least five years. Too many wait decades, or never disclose. In lieu of the "42 Hours for the 42 Million in the Florida Capitol" where for 42+ continuous hours in the rotunda of the Florida Capitol, advocates, legislators, state leaders, survivors and community members join Senator Lauren Book, herself a victim and now a survivor and founder of Lauren's Kids, and the Lauren's Kids Foundation walk non-stop on a treadmill to honor the 42 million and advocate for societal and legislative change, we changed to a virtual walk. We created "42 miles for the 42 million" where supporters signed up to participate by committing to walk 42 miles during the month of April, which is Sexual Assault Awareness Month and National Child Abuse Prevention Month. Walkers received a 42 miles for the 42 million t-shirt if they completed the 42 miles. The event was a success and provided an opportunity for supporters of Lauren's Kids along with survivors to participate virtually and expand the reach of Lauren's Kids. 2615655 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 29 0 1 2 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 10 10 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 FL X Ronald L Book 7862885045 4000 Hollywood Blvd 677-S Hollywood FL 33021 Ronald L Book Chairman 15.00 X X 0 0 0 Beth Rosenstein Vice President 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Rochelle S Matza Treasurer 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Keith Kenner Secretary 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Stanford Blake Board Member 0.20 X 0 0 0 Bruno Dede Board Member 0.20 X 0 0 0 Charles Fernandes Board Member 0.20 X 0 0 0 Manny Kadre Board Member 0.20 X 0 0 0 Randal Perkins Board Member 0.20 X 0 0 0 Diane Philbin Board Member 0.20 X 0 0 0 Lauren F Book Founder and CEO 40.00 X 257500 0 0 Maraleen Browne Executive Director 40.00 X 100000 0 0 357500 0 0 1 0 1 0 Armada Content LLC 915 Twin Elms Court Nashville TN 37210 Media Content 1202000 Instructure Inc PO Box 7410958 Chicago IL 606740958 Education Technology 227160 CVS Comms LLC 1111 NE 16th Terr Unit 2 Ft Lauderdale FL 33304 Educational Editing 150000 3 232573 2228296 2939425 5400294 Curriculum Sales 711510 68710 68710 Recycling Service 711510 30662 30662 99372 40216 40216 433873 232573 304130 129743 129743 5669625 99372 0 169959 12550 12550 357788 79159 233721 44908 18671 18671 21352 601 6646 14105 2581 486 2095 27798 27798 63836 63836 7618 7618 305296 269743 31521 4032 39126 1102 12178 25846 37874 37676 69 129 6778 447 1960 4371 Program Services 2160632 2102967 1514 56151 Credit Card Processing 15587 7559 8028 Supplies and Materials 13240 13240 3090727 2615655 317502 157570 3591470 3347932 450059 1177571 26582 44421 15051 15051 0 0 2369943 4068111 6939867 55431 50034 0 38866 55431 88900 X 4012680 6850967 4012680 6850967 4068111 6939867 2578898 259389 0 X X 0 1 X 1 0 X 1907937 1985278 2964779 2783303 5400294 15041591 1907937 1985278 2964779 2783303 5400294 15041591 15041591 2511 2788 1979 5883 40216 53377 87275 315054 86789 -93707 129743 525154 15620122 1203529 0.96300 0.95830 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 15051 15051 0 0 Investment in Wells Fargo Brokerage 2369943 C 2369943 X 6456857 259389 223713 483102 5973755 -304130 -304130 5669625 3618570 223713 304130 527843 3090727 0 3090727 Part X, Line 2: The organization is exempt from federal taxes under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and similar Florida statutes.
