Form 990, Part I, Line 1 and Part III, Line 1 The mission of the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation is to provide financial support, staffing, and creative resources for the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum, whose core function is to collect, preserve, and make available for research the documents, audiovisual materials, and historic artifacts of President Kennedy, his family, and his contemporaries. While the Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum receives an annual federal appropriation for building maintenance and a portion of its personnel costs, the appropriation from Congress amounts to 33% of the library and foundation's annual operating budget. The balance is provided by income generated from admission fees to museum, museum store sales, usage fees for the library's meeting facilities, and through the generosity of thousands of private individuals, corporations, and foundations who donate money and in-kind services to the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation. In 2012, the Kennedy Library Foundation contributed approximately 46%, or $8.4 million, of the library and foundation's projected $18.4 million annual operating budget. THE FOUNDATION SUPPORTS library programs, the John F. Kennedy award programs, digital archive project, marketing and communication proGRAMS, the Kennedy library forums, and the 50th anniversary events of President Kennedy's administration. The Kennedy Library Foundation is united with the library in a common mission to promote the ideal of public service and political participation and to perpetuate President Kennedy's own belief that one person can make a difference and that every person should try.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4a   Digital Archives and Web Development - The John F. Kennedy Library Foundation worked with The National Archives and the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum to create an online digital library consisting of the most important papers, documents, photographs, video and audio recordings of President John F. Kennedy for the purpose of making them accessible to citizens throughout the world. The projects' objectives are five-fold: the long-term preservation of administration records, photographs, documents, video and audio; online accessibility to a worldwide audience; enhance one's ability to search the collection using metadata; protecting historical assets through remote replication; and minimizing wear and tear on irreplaceable physical assets. The online digital archives currently provides online access to approximately 400,000 pages of documents from the most important collections in the Library's holdings, including the President's Office Files, JFK's 1960 Campaign Files, and the National Security Files; 10,500 photographs from the White House Photograph Collection, 1,500 sound recordings from the Presidential Recording Series of the President's Office Files; 150 moving images, and 1,500 oral histories. In addition, many more items have been digitized and are waiting to be catalogued. In 2012, we had nearly 1.5 million page views of assets in the digital archives. The Foundation is currently partnering with Deluxe, a preeminent Hollywood film company that specializes in the preservation, digitization, and metadata cataloguing of film footage. Their generous in-kind gift will make possible the preservation and digitization of some of the archives' most important and historical film footage and audiovisual assets. The digital archives project is heavily supported by student interns. The Foundation fundS 20-40 interns per year. The Foundation supports the www.JFKLibrary.org website, which provides access to the online digital archives. Since its launch in 2011, the site has received 5,860,064 visits from 4,376,186 unique visitors who logged in 20,204,243 page views. In its second year, between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2012, the website has drawn 3,020,080 Visits, a 4% increase over 2011; and 2,223,670 Unique Visitors, a 3% increase over 2011 after the launch launched. Of those visitors, 73% were new visitors (2,205,576), and 27% were returning visitors (814,504). The US represented 79% of website visitors (2,392,313). Mobile devices represented 13% of all visits in 2012, up from 7% in all of 2011. There were 592,917 page views on Education pages, which is an increase of 27% over 2011, and, viewers spent 7% more time once they arrived. There were 269,528 page views on the Events and Awards pages, which is an increase of 16% over 2011, and, viewers spent 5% more time once they arrived. With funding from the Bingham McCutchen "JFK50 Justice for All" program, the Foundation has launched a micro-site that highlights President John F. Kennedy's involvement in Civil Rights and brings forth the JFK Library's vast archival collection on this topic. The site focuses on the key civil rights events that took place in 1963, including the integration of the University of Alabama; President Kennedy's Televised Address on Civil Rights; The March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom; the Bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church; and the 1963 Civil Rights Legislation.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4b   Communications, Marketing and Social Media - The Museum at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library is the fifth largest paid attraction in the City of Boston. In 2012 the Museum had 180,587 Daytime Visitors. The Foundation provides direct support in promoting the Museum as a national and international tourist destination and attraction and to serve as the Library's representative to the travel and tourism. Marketing and Sales is responsible for promoting paid attendance to the Museum, representing the Museum at travel conferences, trade shows, domestic and international sales missions and group tour meetings; and overseeing the design and production of all marketing and promotional materials including rack cards, brochures, posters, displays, and subway stop directional signage. The Communications Department leads the institution's communication efforts by managing all media relations, orchestrating press events, editing and producing publications and printed materials, overseeing and producing website content, and utilizing new media and social marketing to engage on-line audiences. The Communications team coordinates the JFK Library's social media presence, including on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Tumblr. As of December 2012, the Foundation was connected with over 18,000 people on Facebook, over 26,000 followers on Twitter, nearly 2,000 followers on Tumblr, and 25,000 contacts in our email marketing database. There were also over 2 million downloads of video material on the Foundation's YouTube channel. The Foundation established an additional online presence on Pinterest in 2012. The Foundation, along with its pro-bono advertising firm, The Martin Agency, created an interactive multimedia documentary marking the 50th anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis. The website, www.CloudsOverCuba.com, invites visitors to enter an immersive documentary that lays out the full story of the Crisis in riveting detail, beginning in 1959 and continuing on until the missiles are removed in 1962. The interactive microsite also shows one fictional vision of how the world might be different today had the Missile Crisis escalated into nuclear war. Since launch, the site has had more than 560,000 page views from visitors from over 170 countries. The Kennedy Library Foundation also collaborated with AT&T, the lead sponsor of the JFK Library's new special exhibit "To the Brink: JFK and the Cuban Missile Crisis," to create an app and website based on the exhibit, bringing it to online audiences around the world. The app is available for free download in the Apple Store and at www.JFKCMC.org, where Android phone and tablet users can also experience the exhibit.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4c   Education and Public Programs - The Foundation continues to support the education and public programs to provide an extensive and diverse roster of programs for students and teachers, adults, families, and web visitors. They include history and civic education offerings, public forums on both contemporary issues and historical topics, gallery talks and demonstrations, and performing arts series. Programs are mission-driven and are audience-centered. These programs help people understand the history of JFK's era; promote debate and discussion of issues at the heart of contemporary democracy today that relate to the legacy of President Kennedy; promote engagement with the arts; and inspire current and future generations to political participation and public service. To mark the 50th anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis, on October 14, 2012 the Kennedy Presidential Library convened a major conference featuring historians, journalists and policy makers reflecting on the events leading up to the crisis, how it was resolved, and how lessons learned can be applied to the nuclear challenges facing us today. Panelists and participants included David Ferriero, Archivist of the United States; Jorge Dominguez; Peter Kornbluh; Sheldon Stern; Adriana Bosch; Sergei Khrushchev; Tim Naftali; Michael Dobbs; Jim Hershberg; Brian Latell; Mary Surate; David Coleman; Graham Allison; Nicholas Burns; Philip Zelikow; Juliette Kayam; and Jack Schlossberg. With the exception of web offerings, the vast majority of our audiences served through these programs are K-12 students and adult forum attendees. On average, the programs serve approximately 39,000 people a year. As the only presidential library in New England and the region's premier content-provider of educational resources focusing on 20th-century American history, social studies, and civics, through the support of the Foundation the Library is able to serve more than 17,000 students through in-depth guided and self-guided programs, and award-winning enrichment programs. School programs focus on history and/or civic education topics that are curriculum-relevant and mindful of state and national standards. History education programs feature a targeted exploration of the museum galleries paired with onsite classroom activities highlighting documentary source materials from the Library's collections. Civic education programs are geared largely to high school audiences. Opportunities are provided for students from rural, urban and suburban schools to examine together in a multi-school setting such contemporary issues as the federal budget, and give them the tools to be both informed and active citizens. A school program for large student groups from around the country features a docent-facilitated gallery offering highlighting key decisions of JFK's presidency. Programs are free for New England school groups. Free bus transportation to the Library for Boston and Lynn, MA Public Schools eliminates barriers to access for these under-resourced schools. The Foundation continues to support events in celebration of the 50th anniversary of President Kennedy's administration. On November 15, 2012, the Foundation partnered with Bingham McCutchen to present the forum "Leading with Diversity in a Global Economy," featuring a panel of distinguished leaders who examined why diversity is a key to increased productivity and competitiveness and how diversity strategies are critical for developing and retaining a workforce in a competitive global marketplace. The forum was held at the Simon Wiesenthal Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles, California. The distinguished panel included William H. Swanson, Chairman & CEO of Raytheon; Wanda M. Austin, President and CEO of the Aerospace Corporation; Kamala Devi Harris, Attorney General of California; Thurgood Marshall Jr., Partner, Bingham; Hilda Solis, U.S. Secretary of Labor; and Antonio R. Villaraigosa, Mayor of Los Angeles. The forum was introduced by Caroline Kennedy and Bingham Chairman, Jay Zimmerman. Journalist Eleanor Clift moderated. More than 400 business leaders and members of the Los Angeles legal community attended.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4d   The John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award is presented annually to public servants who have made courageous decisions of conscience without regard for the personal or professional consequences. The award is named for President Kennedy's 1957 Pulitzer Prize-winning book, Profiles in Courage, which recounts the stories of eight U.S. Senators who risked their careers, incurring the wrath of constituents or powerful interest groups, by taking principled stands for unpopular positions. The John F. Kennedy Library Foundation created the Profile in Courage Award in 1989 to honor President Kennedy's commitment and contribution to public service. In 2012, the award was presented to Former Iowa Chief Justice Marsha Ternus and former justices David Baker and Michael Streit in recognition of the political courage and judicial independence each demonstrated in setting aside popular opinion to uphold the basic freedoms and security guaranteed to all citizens under the Iowa constitution. Also honored with a 2012 Profile in Courage Award was Robert Ford, former U.S. Ambassador to Syria, whose bold and courageous diplomacy has provided crucial support to Syrians struggling under the brutal regime of Syrian president Bashar al-Assad. The John F. Kennedy New Frontier Awards were created by the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation and Harvard's Institute of Politics to honor Americans under the age of 40 who are changing their communities and the country with their commitment to public service. The awards are presented annually to two exceptional individuals whose contributions in elective office, community service, or advocacy demonstrate the impact and the value of public service in the spirit of John F. Kennedy. In 2012, the awards were presented to Stacey Abrams, Georgia House Minority Leader and the first woman to lead either party in the Georgia General Assembly, and Veronika Scott, founder of The Empowerment Plan, an innovative humanitarian project that is creating a new garment industry in Detroit by hiring the city's homeless women.
