CSA has been transforming lives through its initiatives and creating a culture of compassion and collaboration for over a decade. 1. Gift Gardens: The Gift Gardens are a community initiative with the purpose of combatting food insecurity in St. Augustine and surrounding communities. All that we grow, we gift to others. We have four Gift Gardens in St. Augustine: one at the Webster School in West Augustine, one in Lincolnville Community Garden, beds at Ketterlinus Elementary School, and Mindful Solutions. Produce harvested from the gardens is distributed by our partner EPIC-CURE. 2. Purple Bench: Advocates for compassion, empathy and understanding within the community and from those businesses and organizations that are a part of its infrastructure. The Purple Bench initiative was formed to challenge the community to engage in compassionate practices despite different backgrounds, religions, ethnicities, and views. In a world divided by polarizing opinions, it is increasingly important to find common ground to help those in need. 3. Compassionate Women: Compassionate Women fosters inclusivity and unity amongst women of all ethnicities and backgrounds and extends compassionate assistance to communities in need. Every month, our diverse group of women gather to share a meal, celebrate our diversity, and cultivate a multicultural haven of compassion, civility, and tolerance through public advocacy, education, and hands-on initiatives. 100 28325 28325 Sultana Rahim Barakzoy President 8 0 0 0 Robin Thomas Vice President / Executive Directoir 16 2581 0 0 Arthur Culbert Executive Director 8 2000 0 0 Rebecca Halkin Secretary 4 0 0 0 Nancy Murphy Director 4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 FL Brian Pepper 147 Martin Luther King Avenue St Augustine FL 32084 7032011341 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 2280 7695 38500 16874 13685 79034 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2280 7695 38500 16874 13685 79034 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 79034 5 15 8 0 8 36 0 0 0 0 0 0 5 15 8 0 8 36 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2285 7710 38508 16874 13693 79070 0.99954 1 0.00046 0 X Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 8 Interest income.
