We understand that by joining forces with other local organizations that share our core values, we can make an even bigger impact on the communities we serve. Through these strategic alliances, Project LEDO has formed a strong and united front to address the pressing issues faced by BIPOC communities. Our programs have expanded to include a partnership with an Iraqi school, a collaboration with We Belong PDX, and re-entering the Lents community, which has allowed us to serve even more students. Additionally, our new partnership with POIC has further strengthened our outreach. A significant accomplishment in our program is that we have students going to Academy of Science and they are from underserve composed primarily of immigrant students and people of color. We have also provided close to 100 computers to communities of color, helping to bridge the digital divide. Our Program has partnered with Wells Fargo, Chase, PGE and others in efforts to support our mission. These partnerships have not only increased our resources but also extended our reach into new areas. By collaborating with like-minded organizations, Project LEDO has been able to expand its programs and initiatives to two additional school districts. This means more students from diverse backgrounds now have access to STEM education opportunities. Moreover, these alliances have enabled us to tackle one of the most substantial challenges faced by marginalized communities - the digital divide. By partnering with local organizations that share similar goals and values, Project LEDO is creating a lasting impact on underserved communities. Together, we are making strides toward inspiring BIPOC youth to become leaders in STEM fields while simultaneously addressing critical social issues such as educational inequality and digital access disparities. We are excited about our new collaboration with OMSI, where we are developing a program in robotics and design, powered by our revamped team. Through these partnerships, Project LEDO continues to bring valuable resources to the communities, aiming to shorten the digital divide. Through our Lego Robotics program, our students gain leadership skills, communication skills, and, most importantly, a sense of community. 0 0 0 216168 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 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 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 8 0 1 4 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 6 6 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 OR X Fidel Ferrer 5034901456 4848 SE 100th Ave Portland OR 97266 Fidel Ferrer President & Executive Director 40 0 X X 85077 0 2552 Sarah Adams Vice President 2 0 X X 0 0 0 Margarita Ferrer Tamayo Secretary/Co-Vice President 2 0 X X 0 0 0 Felicia Wells Treasurer 2 0 X X 0 0 0 Jesus Aringuibel Director 2 0 X 0 0 0 Yodit Tadesse Director 10 0 X 0 0 0 85077 0 2552 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 500 266468 7250 266968 Children/Youth Training 611710 15877 15877 0 0 0 0 0 0 15877 0 0 0 0 0 0 282845 15877 0 0 85077 72315 8508 4254 65825 65825 2717 2309 272 136 14279 13079 800 400 10064 0 10064 0 12611 0 12611 0 0 21235 400 600 20235 1278 1278 0 0 2771 2355 277 139 1626 1382 163 81 29717 25259 2972 1486 7857 7857 0 0 1099 934 110 55 6041 5135 604 302 IN-KIND DONATIONS 7250 7250 0 0 PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT 1701 1701 0 0 PROGRAM SERVICES 2342 2342 0 0 VOLUNTEER SUPPORT 6747 6747 0 0 280237 216168 36981 27088 139435 151514 16740 20009 1750 3750 59490 157925 234763 8374 9636 72968 8374 82604 X 149551 152159 0 0 149551 152159 157925 234763 2608 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X 3514 52463 229657 172950 282845 741429 3514 52463 229657 172950 282845 741429 741429 741429 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED LEASE RIGHT OF USE 59490 59490 2768 LEASE LIABILITY 64790 Accrued Payroll Liabilities 3346 Oregon Payroll Taxes 2064 72968 Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 2 THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS' SECRETARY/VICE PRESIDENT IS THE MOTHER OF THE BOARD PRESIDENT/CEO.
