Mission and programs · 2023
Mission
Global Gardens is dedicated to breaking the cycle of poverty and empowering low-income students to be agents of change in their lives and communities through inquiry-based science and peace education.
Activities or mission (Part I)
Empower low-income students and communities through school-based gardening and family food farms.
-
Global Gardens' during-school program served 1,743 students at 8 elementary schools in Tulsa. Global Gardens educators met weekly with 81 classes in grades PreK-5 throughout the school year to facilitate a dynamic, science-based gardening curriculum that included hands-on gardening and garden-inspired projects. The program supported state science standards, promoted teamwork and problem solving, and inspired motivation for learning. It also provided students with seed-to-plate experiences that fostered healthy eating habits and positive attitudes toward fresh fruits and vegetables.
Expenses $342,401
-
Global Gardens' after-school program served 183 students in grades 3-5 at 7 locations in Tulsa. Participants spent 4 hours per week in the program, which lasted from August through May. Students earned and cultivated their own gardens while developing confidence, self-awareness, goal orientation, social problem-solving skills, and readiness for civic engagement. In addition to gardening, the program incorporated peace education activities, journaling, cooking, creative activities, conflict resolution, and community-focused projects.
Expenses $270,374
-
Global Gardens family food farm program brought families and community members together weekly for 10 months to garden, cook healthy meals, spend peaceful family time, and build community. Each family received its own garden plot and supplies, and families worked together to cultivate shared plots. At each weekly gathering, participants shared a plant-based meal featuring garden produce. Global Gardens Alliance program provided programming for one quarter (7 weekly visits) at 3 elementary schools. At each school, the program served students in grade 2 and/or grade 3. Weekly lessons focused on growing food in hydroponic trays, cooking and tasting this food, and engaging in scientific inquiry aligned with Oklahoma science standards. Global Gardens community outreach program partnered with local schools, groups, and organizations to engage community members of all ages. The community outreach team participated in garden-related fairs and events, delivered educational presentations, conducted workshops and trainings, hosted teams and work groups in the gardens, and provided brief garden-related lessons and experiences for children and families at a variety of locations.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
