For DEP, we co-created the Climate Justice Co-Creation Initiative, where we developed a team of community based organizations and individual stipended community members to co-develop policy and program solutions to climate-related issues in Montgomery County, MD. The Climate Justice Co-Creation Initiative will focus on climate change mitigation and prevention strategies over the next several years with growing involvement and decision-making from individuals most directly impacted by climate-related challenges. As for MCCC, we conducted the Community Needs Assessment for Children, Youth, and Families. Our work began with Collaboration Council through the Out of School Time was a pilot project where we recruited low income community members through canvassing to take part in suggesting the next generation of out of school programming and policy development. The focus groups evolved in our work with the Community Needs Assessment, where we stipended recurring focus groups with the same group of thirty people. We divided these thirty people in three groups of ten. Each group of ten attended five to seven meetings and the groupings were based on geography and age. We called each group a cohort. About half of this work occurred in November and December 2023, with the other half of the work occurring in the first half of 2024. Each cohort originally focused on getting to know one another and identifying mutual challenges their families and children were experiencing. The cohorts culminated in late spring of 2024. This is continued work built on outreach we have conducted prior with Montgomery Planning and other county agencies. A report based on our outreach for the Fairland Briggs Chaney Master Plan from 2022 can be found at: https://montgomeryplanning.org/planning/communities/upcounty/fairland/fairland-master-plan-1997/fairland-briggs-chaney-mp/equitable-community-engagement/what-weve-heard/. We repeated the canvassing, policy co-creation, and cohort development process for Kent County's Local Management Board. 118368 249543 0 Along with our project specific accomplishments, we always work to connect community members with public resources, engage in open-ended conversations around how our community could improve, and introduce community members to one-another. For example, outside of county master planning efforts like Fairland and Briggs Chaney master plan and the University Boulevard sector plan, we have canvassed people in White Oak, Downtown Silver Spring, Gaithersburg, Long Branch, Rockville, Montgomery Village, Aspen Hill, Wheaton, Germantown, Takoma Park, Fairland, Burtonsville, Clarksburg, and more. In 2024, we knocked and left flyers at about 10,000 doors to have conversations one-on-one with residents. We also navigated people through accessing resources and introduced them to resources at food distribution events in community settings like churches, parks, and private rental properties with residents of mostly low and moderate incomes. Because housing affordability and safety is such a prevalent issue at the doors we have knocked, Everyday Canvassing put significant outreach time and organization infrastructure building for the Housing Justice Montgomery coalition and a high school internship program focused on housing this year. All our staff also work on government contracted projects as well. So the expenses recorded for Emmanuel, Angela, Harold, Tino, and Mady's wages are divided amongst the projects done in collaboration with government. Also, because our volunteers are walking, talking, and connecting with community members for usually 3 - 4 hours, we host "family meals" after we knock doors. Sitting down, eating, and reflecting on the experiences we've had talking with people at doors and bonding allows our volunteer operation to remain well-attended and consistent. Sharing food is therefore also critical to our success building up the level of civic engagement in our community and is a mission-related expense. All printing has been used to share resources or inspire conversations door-to-door. 22316 25000 0 As we've taken on new government projects requiring new insurance, skills, and better internal operations, our staff training and internal operations costs have become more sophisticated. We held our first ever overnight board and staff retreat to refresh our vision, values, and methods. And we also added new general liability and volunteer insurance. 0 0 0 351733 1 1 0 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 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 4 4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 MD X X Augustin Fragale 2402647102 10023 Dallas Avenue Silver Spring MD 20901 Wally-Mady Nadje Co-Executive Director 40 0 X X 75950 0 0 Augustin Fragale Co-Executive Director 40 0 X 64985 0 0 Deanna Stephen Board Treasurer 2 0 X 0 0 0 Giovanni Marchand Board Member At-Large 2 0 X 0 0 0 Kush Kharod Board President 15 0 X 0 0 0 Hana Taye Board Member At-Large 2.00 2.00 X 0 0 0 140935 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 272354 0 272354 Montgomery County Department of Environmental Protection Climate Justice Community Initiative 924100 17625 17625 0 0 Montgomery County Collaboration Council for Children, Youth, and Families Community Needs Assessment 923130 91008 91008 0 0 Montgomery Planning Department - Clarksburg Master Plan Canvassing 925120 9846 9846 0 0 Office of Legislative Oversight Code Enforcement Focus Group Recruitment and Facilitation 921100 8770 8770 0 0 Manna Food Emergency Food Services Canvassing 624210 13110 13110 0 0 0 0 0 0 140359 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 Tax refund from payroll taxes 920000 247 247 0 0 Contractor Payment Returned 920000 1283 1283 0 0 Space Rental Deposit Returned 920000 606 606 0 0 53 53 0 0 2189 414902 142548 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 141094 141094 0 0 0 0 0 0 86818 86818 0 0 0 0 0 0 4996 4996 0 0 17491 17491 0 0 7000 7000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 17345 17345 0 0 0 0 0 0 626 626 0 0 2461 2461 0 0 0 0 0 0 6975 6975 0 0 8978 8978 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1021 1021 Admin, such as accounting software and board retreat costs 8499 0 8499 0 Food, printing, and materials for canvassing, programs and events 27752 27752 0 0 Incentives for Community-based Research Participants 28949 28949 0 0 Other Expenses 277 227 50 0 0 0 0 0 360282 351733 8549 0 171784 226404 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 171784 226404 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 171784 226404 0 0 171784 226404 171784 226404 54620 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X 5471 86595 102683 158034 272354 625137 0 9954 35848 111991 140360 298153 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 5471 96549 138531 270025 412714 923290 3300 12000 2000 0 0 17300 0 9954 35748 111991 140360 298053 3300 21954 37748 111991 140360 315353 607937 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 0 314 907 1221 5471 96549 138531 270339 413621 924511 0.65758 0.51919 0 0 X Schedule A, Part III, Line 12 $53 for a software payment return. $606.75 for the deposit for a space rental returned.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c Quarterly board meetings always have check-ins with each board member to share potential conflicts of interest. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15 In December 2023, when hiring Augustin Fragale for Co-Executive Director, Everyday Canvassing considered salaries of other nonprofit institutions working in community engagement. We used the website GlassDoor along with knowledge of our local community engagement ecosystem to determine the floor and ceiling of Augustin's salary. A vote and discussion was held with the board of directors. Augustin, who was former Board President, was not allowed to participate in the discussion or the vote due to the conflict of interest. We have not hired any new permanent full-time or part-time staff since 2023. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19 All documents are available on the footer of our website everydaycanvassing.org We filed for an extension form because we lost significant capacity over the summer in 2024 with one staff member leaving our team, and another dealing with a personal crisis that required months at limited work capacity.
