Mission and programs · 2024
Mission
CALDERA'S MISSION IS TO INSPIRE AND SUPPORT YOUTH FROM UNDERSERVED RURAL AND URBAN COMMUNITIES BY AWAKENING THE POTENTIAL OF THEIR CREATIVE VOICE.
Activities or mission (Part I)
CALDERA IS A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION WITH HEADQUARTERS IN PORTLAND, OREGON, AND A CENTER ON 119-ACRES OF LAND NEAR SISTERS IN CENTRAL OREGON. OUR MISSION IS "TO INSPIRE AND SUPPORT YOUTH FROM UNDERSERVED RURAL AND URBAN COMMUNITIES BY AWAKENING THE POTENTIAL OF THEIR CREATIVE VOICE." IN THIS WAY, CALDERA IS A CREATIVE INCUBATOR FOR YOUTH FROM UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES.
-
DAN WIEDEN AND HIS FAMILY ESTABLISHED CALDERA IN 1996 TO FOCUS ON THE STRENGTHS OF YOUTH AND THEIR COMMUNITIES, LED BY THE BELIEF THAT "WHEN YOUTH ARE GIVEN ACCESS TO THE EXPLOSIVE POWER OF CREATIVITY, THEY CAN CHANGE THEIR WORLD." SINCE THEN, CALDERA HAS ENGAGED OVER 15,000 YOUTH THROUGH AN AWARD-WINNING, SEVEN-YEAR COHORT MODEL THAT INCLUDES A ROBUST SUMMER PROGRAM, IN-SCHOOL PARTNERSHIPS, RESIDENCIES AND PERFORMANCES. CONTINUED ON SCHEDULE O.IN 2024, CALDERA'S APPRENTICE PROGRAM CAME BACK IN A BIG WAY. THE 2024-25 COHORT CONSISTED OF TEN HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS: FIVE IN PORTLAND AND FIVE IN CENTRAL OREGON. THESE TEN EMERGING ARTISTS TOOK THE SPARK OF CREATIVITY THAT THEY FOUND AS CALDERA YOUTH AND EXPLORED IT FURTHER. WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO CREATE ART FOR OTHERS? HOW MUCH POWER DOES A CREATIVE VOICE HAVE, AND WHAT CAN IT ACCOMPLISH? THESE WERE QUESTIONS THEY SOUGHT TO ANSWER THROUGH THEIR WORK AND THE EXPERIENCES THEY HAD AS APPRENTICES.ALL OF OUR YOUTH WORK INCORPORATES THESE CORE INGREDIENTS: AWE AND WONDER, INTERCULTURAL CONNECTION, SAFETY, SELF-REFLECTION, FAILURE AND RESILIENCE, DEPENDABILITY, AND APPLIED CREATIVITY. ALL EVALUATION ACTIVITIES WERE COMPLETE/SCHEDULED WITH ANALYSIS UNDERWAY. MORE THAN 200 PRE- AND POST-SURVEYS, NINE PARTNER SURVEYS, FIVE YOUTH FOCUS GROUPS, AND 18 ALUMNI INTERVIEWS COMPLETED AS PART OF THE EVALUATION PLAN LAUNCHED LAST YEAR. WHAT WE'VE LEARNED SO FAR? IMPACT INCREASES OVER TIME IN THE YOUTH PROGRAM AND THAT YOUNG PEOPLE BUILD CONFIDENCE, CONNECTION, AND CREATIVITY.WE SERVED 496 YOUNG LEARNERS; 190 OF THEM DURING THE BELOVED SUMMER PROGRAM.
Expenses $2,874,788 · Grants $36,375 · Revenue $2,155

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. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
