IRS990/Desc0RIVERBEND'S PURPOSE IS TO MOTIVATE AND EDUCATE THE NEXT GENERATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDS. RIVERBEND'S NATURE-BASED STEM EDUCATION PROGRAMS ADVANCE ENVIRONMENTAL LITERACY, APPRECIATION OF THE NATURAL WORLD AND OUR PLACE IN IT. THROUGH INQUIRY BASED LEARNING STUDENTS HAVE DIRECT EXPERIENCES WITH NATURE AND THE RELEVANT LEARNING THAT ADVANCES CURIOSITY, CRITICAL THINKING, CREATIVE APPROACHES, AND PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILLS. IN 2017 RIVERBEND RECEIVED THE GOVERNOR'S AWARD FOR EXCELLENCE FOR THE BUILDING STEM SKILLS THROUGH AQUAPONICS PROGRAM. CURRENTLY RIVERBEND SERVES APPROXIMATELY 20,000 PEOPLE WITH 35,000 PROGRAM VISITS ANNUALLY. WE DELIVERED 24,000 SCHOOL PROGRAM VISITS ALONE, WITH 49% SERVING UNDER-RESOURCED COMMUNITIES AND 71% OF VISITS TAKING PLACE OFF- SITE. OUR AQUAPONICS PROGRAM EXPANDED FROM FOUR TO 17 SCHOOLS WITH 1,900 STUDENTS PARTICIPATING. WE ENLISTED 461 VOLUNTEERS TO HELP US ACHIEVE OUR EDUCATIONAL MISSION. IN LATE 2017, THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS APPROVED AN UPDATED STRATEGIC PLAN WITH THREE PRIMARY GOALS: 1. EXPAND SERVICES AND INCREASE MISSION IMPACT OF FORMAL, SCHOOL-BASED PROGRAMS 2. ESTABLISH A STRONG PUBLIC IDENTITY 3. INCREASE FOUNDATIONAL RESOURCES TO ACHIEVE SUSTAINABLE MISSION IMPACT.
