Don’t miss the 26th Annual CFSA Sustainable Agriculture Conference in Durham, NC! “Never doubt that a small group of committed people can change the world. Indeed it is the only thing that ever has.” Roland McReynolds — Margaret Mead When we come together, we can do almost anything. Working together, we have set off a food and farming revolution: launching new organic farms and promoting existing sustainable ones; opening successful farmers’ markets; creating strong farmer-restaurant partnerships; building infrastructure to help sustainable farming and food businesses thrive; and advocating for a fair deal, for small farms and local food. But we face growing challenges: GMOs, market competition, pest and disease pressure, labor shortages, labeling and more on the food safety front. That’s why it is more important than ever to come together at the 26th Annual Sustainable Ag Conference! SHARING KNOWLEDGE We’ve assembled cutting-edge, skill-building sessions on horticulture, livestock, soils, mush- rooms, permaculture, bees, food, and more. Classes will be taught by our best local experts, including: Will Hooker, Chuck Marsh, Andrea Reusing, Ken Dawson, Rob Bowers, Daniel Parsons, Tony Kleese, and Debbie Roos. And we are bringing in amazing talent from around the country: Ross Conrad (VT), Greg Judy (MO), Ellen Polishuk (VA), Paul Wiediger (KY), Guy Jodarski (MN), Kristina Hubbard (CA) and Brian Snyder (PA). Come prepared to learn (a lot!) and share what you know. SHARING INSPIRATION Our keynote this year is Joan Dye Gussow, author of the bestselling This Organic Life. She’s a legend in the local, organic movement. Friday night Joan will get us thinking together about what it means to defend real food. She inspired Michael Pollan and we’re sure she will inspire you and our Carolina movement. SHARING FOOD: This year’s conference takes place in Durham, North Carolina. Durham was recently heralded by the New York Times as one of the 37 best places in the world to visit in 2011 because of its food scene. What better way to re-establish connections with your farm and food friends, and make new ones, than over a plate of delicious food at a Durham eatery, or check out one of the amazing farm-to-fork restaurants in Chapel Hill, Raleigh or the rest of the Triangle. And as always, we put our ideals on your plate with fantastic, local, organic food at the conference meals and the not-to-be-missed local foods reception. We want you to come away from this weekend with inspiring ideas, new skills and new friends, mentors and busi- ness colleagues. Let’s all build our connections across the spectrum of farmers, businesspeople, community activists and educators. Together, we are creating a positive, sustainable, healthy farm and food future.

These farmers are employing environmentally responsible and sustainable farming practices and continuing their family farming tradition of growing tobacco. Organic tobacco grown for our company represents a quarter, by value, of all organic crops grown in NC. And with our encouragement and a working relationship with Carolina Farm Stewardship Association, many of these growers are now also growing several hundred acres of organic vegetables and other crops. Santa Fe Natural Tobacco Company is proud to support the work of the Carolina Farm Stewardship Association and its Annual Sustainable Conference. Together, we’re expanding organic agriculture in the Carolinas. 3220 Knotts Grove Road, Oxford, NC 27565 Ph: (919) 690-0880 Fax: (919) 603-5755 www.sfntc.com Conference Highlights Friday Night Keynote! Joan Dye Gussow Joan Dye Gussow speaks about the connection between the way we grow food and the healthiness of what we eat. What sets her apart is that she was saying this thirty years ago! Joan has spent a lifetime championing the idea that locally-grown food, eaten in season, makes sense — economically, ecologically, and gastronomically. A passionate advocate for organic, local food and small, family farms, Joan is known as the matriarch of the movement. She is a mentor to today’s leading food activists, including Michael Pollan who wrote, “Once in a while, Keynote Speaker I think I’ve had an original thought, and then I look around and realize Joan said it first.” Joan inspired a food revolution with her eloquent and profound thinking — speaking about the perils of industrial food, politics that resulted in the replacement of real food in our supermarkets and dinner tables with “manufactured ingredients,” and how one small parcel of land can produce abundant healthy, nutritious food.

They dreamed big and so have we. Our federal status, international stature, and unparalleled collections make it possible for us to create enduring impact. We are able to do this because of our vast and diverse audience and through a range of strategic partnerships, as described in the following pages. FRONT COVER: Eliane Strip explores with her grandson the story of her late husband’s escape from Nazi-occupied Belgium to the United States in 1940–41. Some of the family’s immigration documents are included in an interactive display in the Museum’s newest exhibition. Five years in the making, Americans and the Holocaust (LEFT) examines all aspects of American society in the 1920s, ’30s, and ’40s and the amount of information available to Americans about the persecution of Jews as it was happening. This exhibition asks why rescuing Jews never became a priority. All photos US Holocaust Memorial Museum unless otherwise indicated.

    ANNUAL REPORT 2017 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS 3 Letter from Jill 4 Making a Difference 5 Rock Paper Givers Society 6 Sources and Use of Funds 7 Our Fiscal Year Impact 8-27 Playworks Supporters 28 Playworks National Board of Directors 29-32 Playworks Regional Boards 2 ANNUAL REPORT 2017 Greetings, I’ve been thinking recently about something. Maya Angelou once said: “There is nothing quite so tragic as a young cynic, because it means the person has gone from knowing nothing to believing nothing.” It is an extraordinary time in our country. And if there is one thing I’m absolutely certain of, it is that we must continue to believe in the possibilities for our nation, and even more importantly, our children. At Playworks, we believe play is an antidote to cynicism and it is possible to ensure that every child in this country has access to safe and healthy play every day. Knowing the transformative difference we’re making in the lives of kids, we are compelled to grow. And I’m proud to say in fiscal year 2017, we did just that. We still aim to ensure safe and healthy play for 3.5 million kids at 7.000 schools by December 2020. So we know, we need to open our playbook to schools we have not supported in person. In October, we launched Recess Lab, a free online destination created to help principals, teachers, parents, and kids re-discover the power of play. We offered tools like our Recess Checkup – a three-minute online quiz designed to help principals and teachers identify strengths, uncover areas for improvement, and understand what’s really happening for kids in their school And we have seen amazing engagement.

Brandt 1. The Sitcom Genre and Carnivalesque Humor 1 “An animal sits at a desk, writing”—thus Philip Armstrong begins his study of the meaning of animals in fictions of modernity (What Animals Mean 1). The scenario of an animal writing a letter while sitting at a desk may seem absurd; yet, this is the exact setting that viewers of the TV sitcom Mister Ed are confronted with in the 1962 episode “Horse Sense” (season 3, episode 6): The show’s animal protagonist, a white palomino horse named Mister Ed, stands at a desk and produces a letter on a typewriter (Fig. 1).2 By acting like (but not necessarily as) a human, Mister Ed embodies ethnologist Claude Lévi-Strauss’s famous dictum that natural species are “good to think with” (89).
