    Explanation:
    Block 7: In partnership with the City of Redding and a local developer, The McConnell Foundation is developing and building 78 units of affordable housing, a Community Leadership Center in conjunction with a community college, and supportive infrastructure. The Block 7 development also includes streetscape amenities to make downtown more bikeable and walkable, as well as development of a public park. Center of Hope: In partnership with the City of Redding, Shasta County, and a local developer, The McConnell Foundation is developing and building 49 units of affordable housing, a portion of which are targeted to at risk populations and those needing permanent supportive services. The Center of Hope Development will have case managed housing units operated by Hill Country Medical Clinic, which is adjacent to the housing site. Active negotiations are underway to co-locate educational space for California Heritage Youth Build Academy, a local charter school which serves students ages 16-24 with job training and pre-apprenticeship opportunities in nursing and construction industries.

    Identifier Return Reference Explanation
    Line 3 Form 990-PF, Part IX-A Meeting Facilities for Charitable Organizations - Lema Ranch provides approximately 10,000 square feet of meeting room space that is available at no charge to non-profit organizations, governmental agencies and public schools. The McConnell Foundation hosted 18 of these groups with 495 attendees in the first quarter of 2020 and none thereafter for the year. In March 2020, the Foundation followed Governor Newsom's mandates and the CDC's guidelines for Shelter in Place due to the Covid pandemic and closed meeting rooms to the public and headquarters office space to all staff who could perform their work remotely. Outside Grounds staff and some indoors Facilities staff classified as "essential workers", following masking and social distancing rules, were provided with additional PPE measures and remained on campus to ensure our site would be safe and ready to resume activities when restrictions were lifted. In certain circumstances facilities staff were paid to remain home safely. All buildings were maintained, and some major repairs were made while the facilities were mostly unoccupied. The Meeting Room Facility is funded by the release of temporarily restricted funds under the disposition of Leah F. McConnell's Estate. EXPENSES: $1,045,082
    Line 4 Form 990-PF, Part IX-A Bell Plaza Bike Depot and Courtyard - The McConnell Foundation is developing and building a sheltered waiting area proximate to the Downtown Transit Center, featuring a Bike Depot with bike storage room, classroom space for cycling encouragement classes, a bike repair stand and other cycling amenities, urban greening, bike racks, benches for seating and more. This site will feature a bikeshare station, and will be the home base for bikeshare operations. EXPENSES: $377,503
    Line 5 Form 990-PF, Part IX-A Children, Youth and Education Program - The McConnell Foundation's Children, Youth and Education program provides funding to programs and services that have an impact on the development, well-being and education of children, youth and young adults in the Foundation's service area. The Program Officer worked with grantees on the timing of grant and contract funding as scheduling shifted during the pandemic. EXPENSES: $297,995
    Line 6 Form 990-PF, Part IX-A Scholarship Program - The McConnell Foundation Scholars Program provides monetary and non-financial support to local students who are attending four-year colleges and universities and two-year community colleges. All recipients are awarded up to a total of $30,000 with six years of eligibility. Recipients may request up to one-fourth of the total ($7,500) per year, depending on their unmet need. Unused amounts may be rolled forward to subsequent years. Recipients who complete their degree programs may use any remaining eligibility and funding towards the next higher degree. Scholars receive mentoring and support from the scholarship program officer and attend periodic events such as personal, academic and professional development workshops and conferences, volunteer service projects, and college trips. During Covid Shelter in Place restrictions, student enrollment dropped sharply, and remained markedly lower than previously, even as distance learning measures were implemented at many colleges and universities. The Foundation's Officer for the Scholarships program maintained close contact with members of each cohort to plan deferment and/or deployment of scholarship funds during the many shifts in the education system. EXPENSES: $292,945
    Line 7 Form 990-PF, Part IX-A International Program - The McConnell Foundation supports projects to improve social health and welfare for citizens in Nepal and Laos. Initiatives include Access to Justice, Community and Natural Resource Conflict Mediation, Water Resource Management and Leadership Development. The Covid pandemic halted many of the grantee programs internationally due to logistics and/or to shelter in place restrictions, even as the coronavirus infection rate spiked in Nepal and Laos later than in the U.S. The Foundation's Officer for the International program maintained contact with grantees via zoom, email, and telephone and deferred/modified the deployment of grant funds in accordance with the readiness of grantees. All international travel by Foundation staff has been suspended. EXPENSES: $279,670
    Lines 8 & 9 Form 990-PF, Part IX-A Community Vitality/Livable Communities - The McConnell Foundation supports projects that make the communities we serve more vital and livable. We work with government agencies and non-profits to this end. Focus Areas include creative place making, civic engagement, fostering "Local," future readiness and active lifestyles. Community Vitality Program gives grants to support downtown Redding revitalization. We work with government agencies (example: grant to plant trees in public streetscapes in downtown Redding), and nonprofits (example: grant to our local Main Street America organization for public events to enliven downtown with people and events). The Community Vitality Program Officer worked closely with grantees whose work was impacted by Covid Shelter in Place restrictions to defer funding in accordance with grantee readiness. EXPENSES: $154,103 Yosemite Program - The Yosemite Program is a five-day residential environmental education program provided by NatureBridge in Yosemite National Park. Each spring, The McConnell Foundation supports participation in the program by North State high school sophomores and juniors from public high schools and public charter schools in Modoc, Shasta, Siskiyou, Tehama and Trinity counties, and Big Valley High School in Lassen County. Groups of students, led by NatureBridge educators, explore the park and participate in discussions and activities designed to heighten awareness of the importance of our natural world. The goal of the program is to inspire students to develop a connection to the natural world and empower them to act as responsible stewards of natural resources. The Foundation provides full funding for student and chaperone tuition, covers the cost of transportation, and administers the program. EXPENSES: $147,009
    Line 1 Form 990-PF, Part IX-B Block 7: In partnership with the City of Redding and a local developer, The McConnell Foundation is developing and building 78 units of affordable housing, a Community Leadership Center in conjunction with a community college, and supportive infrastructure. The Block 7 development also includes streetscape amenities to make downtown more bikeable and walkable, as well as development of a public park.
    Line 2 Form 990-PF, Part IX-B Center of Hope: In partnership with the City of Redding, Shasta County, and a local developer, The McConnell Foundation is developing and building 49 units of affordable housing, a portion of which are targeted to at risk populations and those needing permanent supportive services. The Center of Hope Development will have case managed housing units operated by Hill Country Medical Clinic, which is adjacent to the housing site. Active negotiations are underway to co-locate educational space for California Heritage Youth Build Academy, a local charter school which serves students ages 16-24 with job training and pre-apprenticeship opportunities in nursing and construction industries.
    Line 2 Form 990-PF, Part IX-A Cal Fire Hazard Mitigation-Carr Fire - The McConnell Foundation received a $12.7 million dollar Cal Fire grant for hazardous fuel reduction treatments (removal of dead and dying trees and brush and resprouting brush) along specific locations identified within the Carr Fire Footprint in West Redding to mitigate wildfire danger. The work during grant period 8/28/19-3/15/22 will take place in and around the communities of Old Shasta, Keswick and French Gulch on approximately 800 private property parcels and miscellaneous Bureau of Land Management parcels for a treatment area of approximately 3,000 to 3,500 acres. The value of the fuel treatments, both in terms of reduced fire behavior/intensity and in terms of impacts (i.e. promoting resprouting of desirable tree species through fuel reduction treatment of competing shrub and invasive species) will produce long-term benefits. These benefits include reductions in vertical and horizontal continuity of fuels and removing competition from many small, closely spaced, fire-vulnerable species into a smaller number of resilient larger trees, thereby improving overall fire resiliency and carbon stocks. This project will lessen the probability of subsequent moderate- to high-severity re-burns. Reducing the probability of re-burns will reduce loss of life and/or personal injury and protect critical facilities, essential services, infrastructure, continuity of government operations, and public and private property. Reducing the occurrence of re-burns will protect ecosystem services such as water quality, flood control, green infrastructure, wildlife habitat, soil structure, and carbon sequestration. Roadside removal of dead and dying trees combined with roadside hazard fuel mitigation efforts will decrease the risk of human caused fire starts by decreasing the volume of hazard fuels in close proximity to roadways. Vehicle-started fires are the second leading cause of fire starts in the CalFire Shasta-Trinity Unit and caused the Carr Fire. These fuel reduction treatments allow roadways to serve as safe ingress and egress for residents in the event of fire, as well as providing tactical areas for suppression activities by hampering fire's ability to 'jump' roadways. Reducing fuel loading around vital firefighting infrastructure will increase efficiency of local response efforts by promoting safe access to and use of fire hydrants, water drafting locations, staging areas, etc. Finally, the removal of hazardous trees and vegetation creates defensible space around habitable structures, both those still standing post-Carr Fire and those that will be rebuilt. This will slow the spread of fire either from direct flame contact or radiant heat and provide firefighters with a safe area from which to defend a threatened home." EXPENSES: $1,221,326
    Line 1 Form 990-PF, Part IX-A Trails and Open Space - The McConnell Foundation has over 400 acres of public park land including 8 miles of maintained trails. Thousands of local residents and visitors use the parks annually. During Covid restrictions in 2020, public trail usage notably increased as local residents sought healthy ways to leave the confinement of their homes. All Grounds staff continued their normal full time schedules, following social distancing and using masks and other PPE, in order to maintain the trails and ensure public safety. The Lema Ranch park space is funded by the release of temporarily restricted funds under the disposition of Leah F. McConnell's Estate. EXPENSES: $2,481,820
