Heinlein by encouraging the reading and discussion of his written work, the use of critical thinking skills in our daily lives, and a love of science essential in promoting humankind's future beyond our home planet. We will "Pay it Forward" through support of educational, literary, and charitable endeavors including, but not limited to: volunteer blood drives; scholarships; the Heinlein For Heroes book distribution program; and the creation and distribution of teaching materials, including support of The Heinlein Journal. Heinlein for Heroes book distribution to active duty military, veterans, and their families.6,275 books donated in 322 shipments. These are usually sent to units or families and shared, so it's difficult to estimate how many actually read the books sent. 0 8550 Scholarships. $4,000 per recipient in a one-time award, four recipients given each year. For undergraduates whose major is in a STEM field of study. We had 567 applicants for the scholarships. 16000 0 Support of volunteer blood donation. We provide resources to have blood drives at conventions and, since the COVID pandemic, donation in the local community which we record as a virtual drive. We recorded 2,789 blood donations. These can serve a variable number of people depending on the ultimate use of the blood product, which we are not told. 0 5747 14297 John Tilden Finance & Operations Committees Chair 8 0 0 0 Ken Walters President, Public Relations Committees Chair 8 0 0 0 Elizabeth Wilcox Secretary, Chair of Nominations Committee 1 0 0 0 Geo Rule Treasurer 1 0 0 0 Beatrice Kondo Director 1 0 0 0 Mike Sheffield Director, Chair of Scholarship Committee 2 0 0 0 Walt Boyes Director, Board of Advisors Liason 1 0 0 0 Joel Davis Director 1 0 0 0 Joe Smiddie-Brush Blood Drives Committee Chair 2 0 0 0 John Seltzer Director, Heinlein For Heroes Committee Chair 4 0 0 0 James Dutton Director, Membership Services Chair 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 John Tilden 3553 Atlantic Avenue suite 341 Long Beach CA 908075606 4109033196 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 25552 27222 62961 47599 119408 282742 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 25552 27222 62961 47599 119408 282742 44330 238412 44 49 34 376 281 784 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 283526 0.84088 0.91959 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 10 Four $4,000 STEM scholarships granted: Total $16,000 Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Description;Amount^Blood Drives;5747|Conventions;218|Heinlein For Heroes Program;11604|Operations;11317|PayPal Fees;1419|Travel and Meetings;148|Uncategorized Expense;679|Reconciliation Discrepancies;424^Total;31556^ Our Treasurer had a health emergency AFTER his filing for an extension and the organization didn't realize nothing was filed until December 2024.
