It began many years ago when I met my wife, SaTina while we were both involved in Dragon Boat racing and our shared interest in Chinese culture brought us to the garden. My sincere gratitude for the garden grows every day when I see it from my office across the street or enjoy a lunch-time stroll through its beautiful serenity. I was honored when I was elected as President of the Board of Directors in 2017. We use these Annual Reports to document our accomplishments and even we are surprised to see the tremendous growth in our programming and community outreach. In 2017, we thanked our hardworking volunteer board members who had reached the end of their terms: Shelley Dutton, Christine Lau, and Shelley Peng. Kia Selley, the City of Portland’s ex-officio representative to our board, retired and was replaced by the Deputy Director of Parks and Recreation, Trang Lam. We welcomed new board members Scott Gray, Rosaline Hui, Ted Johnson, John Spencer Stewart and Wendy Tanada. We also renewed our strategic planning goals with an exciting long range vision. Overall, this is a genuinely terrific organization to be involved with on every level. I am confident we are impacting lives by inspiring curiosity about the cultural, natural and built world around us while educating a global audience to appreciate the rich history and contributions of China. Through efforts like these we all become better citizens of the world. a letter from executive director Lisa James, CFRE Our team at Lan Su is truly exceptional! The garden’s cultural programming activities — free with membership or admission — continued to grow to a new record of more than 800 different programs in 2017. We are bursting at the seams, welcoming more than 3,000 school youth in educational programs. An ever-growing list of tour companies and retirement homes kept everyone busy and bus parking full. Our partnership with PDX Jazz sold-out six summer evening concerts quickly and was considered a magical exprience by all. All indicators are showing positive growth and a community that continues to step-up when we ask for help maintaining these irreplaceable buildings and protecting our unique botanical collection. Significant repairs were made to the roofs and a remodel of all the restrooms to improve our ADA accessibility and aesthetics got underway. Our work is made possible because of the thousands of members, hundreds of individuals and organizations that donate and partner with us and the nearly 100 volunteers who welcome you and assist us in multiple ways every day of the year. To each of you, across the county and across the globe we offer an enormous thank you for your continued support, advice and collaboration. 2017 financials revenue & expenses revenue Admissions $987,526 40% Garden Shop Sales $387,392 16% Garden Shop Membership Grants Contributions & Donations $386,479 15% Teahouse Membership $259,041 10% Total Concessions Garden Rentals, Event Grants $199,000 8% Revenue Rentals (net) & Misc.
