Annual Report 2007 3

A lever for moving the world.

The power to save the planet.For 50 years, the volunteers of the Student Conservation Association have preserved national parks, restored ailing lands, and left a wondrous collective legacy on the American landscape.

Their mission – indeed, the youth conservation movement – started with

the brilliantly simple idea of Elizabeth Cushman Titus Putnam, then a recent

college graduate herself. Liz’s 1955 senior thesis introduced the concept of a

“Student Conservation Corps” and over the past half-century, SCA has become

a living, breathing how-to manual for engaging young people in the practice of

stewardship.

Today, amid climate change, urbanization, and “nature-deficit disorder,” SCA is

writing important new chapters in conservation. The contemporary challenges

facing our planet demand that we broaden our environmental efforts, even as we

continue to serve our treasured parks and forests. Thus SCA is unleashing bold

new strategies that will mark our next 50 years by…

• Bringing sustainable, green practices to communities in need…

• Connecting young people of every background to the land around them, and…

• Instilling a modern ethic of stewardship that will guide a new generation.

SCA doesn’t just take a stand – we take action. From mountain trails to Main

Streets, and from seashores to city schools, SCA is redefining conservation all

across our nation.

4 Student Conservation Association

It is inspiring to realize, more than five decades later, that

what started as two teams of students in Grand Teton

and Olympic National Parks has evolved today into the

nation’s most powerful conservation service force.

SCA’s golden anniversary in 2007 offered many opportunities to celebrate and reaffirm our organizational values. One of my most memorable moments occurred when SCA’s board of directors adjourned our summer meeting in Seattle to grab picks and Pulaskis and aid the restoration effort at storm-ravaged Mount Rainier.

We worked alongside dozens of dedicated SCA volunteers and, together, re-routed a badly damaged trail. It was a tremendously powerful experience. All of us were lifted by the passion of the young people with whom we served, and awed by their ability to affect change and stewardship when they were so desperately needed.

Clearly, after half a century, SCA’s mission still resonates and I would suggest it is now more important than ever. Yet in so many ways, we are just getting started.

In this report, you will see an SCA that is expanding its impact on both our environment and our people. We are a progressive organization that continues to blaze new trails through innovation, collaboration and a deep commitment to conservation service. Simply stated, SCA is all about Our Land, Our Youth, and Our Future.

SCA’s past and future success is entirely due to the great people who facilitate and execute the organization’s mission. I am grateful to my dedicated colleagues on the SCA Board of Directors and to sunsetting board members Stephen Bartram, Paula Cleary, Robert G. Stanton, and Ellen Spencer Susman. I commend SCA President Dale Penny and his outstanding staff. I also salute all our highly supportive resource management partners.

I thank you, our generous sponsors and donors, and pledge that SCA will always conduct itself in ways that are worthy of your enduring faith and trust. And finally, I thank our selfless volunteers. With your support, SCA will continue to make a difference in the places and on the conservation issues that matter most.

SCA Mission Statement: To build the next generation

of conservation leaders and

inspire lifelong stewardship of

our environment and communities

by engaging young people in

hands-on service to the land.

Annual Report 2007 5

With SCA’s 50th Anniversary year now completed,

we are able to assess fully the accomplishments of our

first half century:

• 50,000+ high school and college-aged young people have served to preserve our environment

• 26 million hours (that’s more than 3 million work days) of hands-on conservation service restoring and preserving millions of acres of wildlands

• Tens of thousands of SCA alumni are now environmental professionals with thousands more serving as volunteer conservation leaders in their home communities

Are we proud of these accomplishments? Of course. Yet…

As we launch SCA’s next 50 years, our planet is at a critical moment. Climate change wreaks its impact around the globe. Public lands are more threatened than ever. Larger, more diverse populations are often living in unhealthy urban environments. Too many children are growing up without meaningful interactions with the natural world. And successors must be prepared to follow in the footsteps of the environmental community’s established leadership. So, how should SCA respond to these complex contemporary issues?

Well, we’ve recently asked ourselves that same question and developed a bold vision that builds on our decades of national leadership in youth conservation service. Over the next five years SCA will inspire hundreds of thousands of young Americans to answer the call to preserve our planet fueled by three overarching strategies:

• Preserve Parks, Forests and Wildlands – by doubling the number of young people serving in SCA programs on public lands across our country

• Conserve America’s Urban Green Spaces – by launching or expanding programs in at least 25 US cities, ensuring conservation is relevant to today’s increasingly diverse young population

• Prepare the Next Generation of Conservation Leaders – by engaging young people in activities that develop leadership skills, promote an ethic of stewardship, and provide opportunities for hands-on service

SCA will remain true to its founding values and commitment to conserve national parks and other public lands. Increasingly, however, you will see SCA volunteers preserving city parks, creating community green spaces, and leading local citizens in restoration efforts. Other SCA members will be working with neighborhood organizations to help residents reduce energy consumption and waste production. And larger numbers of SCA alumni will be taking their places as professional leaders in land management agencies and nonprofit environmental groups.

This Annual Report goes beyond the highlights of 2007. It underscores the vital leadership roles – both traditional and new – that SCA members will play in the future in our parks, schools and communities.

I thank you and the many thousands of other supporters who have contributed this past year to enable our young people to serve. Without you, SCA would simply not be sustained. Thanks also to our many resource management partners. I also want to recognize the SCA Board of Directors, under Chairman Fred Prescott’s leadership, for their guidance, as well as the management and staff who make it all happen. And, especially as we culminate our 50th Anniversary, we thank our founder, Elizabeth Cushman Titus Putnam, for her vision, passion and ongoing commitment to leave this planet a better place.

Most importantly, thanks to the 3,218 young adults and teens who served from one to twelve months last year in so many positions of leadership and service throughout the nation. You are the reason we all actively support SCA and share a common belief in the next generation of conservation leaders.

Conserving communities, advancing diversityThe SCA journey that began on remote hiking trails in Washington and Wyoming in 1957 is now blazing a new

trail through cities, neighborhoods and classrooms from coast to coast.

“SCA enables young people to do something bold,” says Milwaukee County Parks Director Sue Black. In a

2007 op-ed piece, Black wrote “many of these teens have never set foot in a park or ever experienced the wonders

of nature. Yet by working for [SCA] they not only get career guidance but an education in bugs, dirt and sweat.”

With the aid of many civic-minded partners, SCA substantially expanded its community conservation

programs last year to address at-risk environments in more than a dozen major cities. “Group to Make City

Greener and Cleaner” hailed The Baltimore Examiner as SCA volunteers revived local parks with the support

of Johnson Controls. The NFL’s Jacksonville Jaguars sponsored SCA teens in Florida’s largest city, and

Mayor Dannel Malloy and General Electric led a broad coalition backing SCA’s Stamford, CT debut.

“We did make a change here!” exclaimed 16-year old volunteer Frank Wright. And new SCA initiatives are

planned in Boston and Detroit in 2008.

Bringing conservation homeIn collaboration with Forest Preserves of Cook County, SCA sent a team of Chicago students to rid a dazzlingly rich prairie of invasive cottonwood. Discovering such a vastly different landscape just a few miles from their urban neighborhoods opened the interns’ eyes as well as their minds. “It’s all connected,” said Michelle Arellano, “from the ocean to the prairies. This land is part of our history and it’s important to preserve it.”

In West Virginia, SCA members taught local homeowners, businesses and governments to cut energy and water usage and reduce waste – one courthouse alone slashed its annual electric bill by nearly $30,000. Other volunteers provided environmental education to thousands of impressionable youngsters from Massachusetts elementary schools to Idaho’s Nez Perce reservations. And in 2008, through a grant from NBC Universal, SCA will plant additional seeds of stewardship by launching high school conservation clubs across the U.S.

SCA volunteers are succeeding in getting city and suburban residents to see themselves as a part of our environment, not apart from it. They’re bringing conservation home.

Preserving nature’s majestyEven as SCA extended its reach into communities across our nation, we placed a record number of

SCA volunteers on America’s public lands. These young men and women included biology majors,

aspiring foresters, and future rangers – more than 3,200 in all, who aided over 500 sensitive ecological

and cultural sites in all 50 states.

Nowhere posed greater urgency than Mount Rainier. The national park had been struck by disastrous

floods and landslides; the damage was nearly incalculable. SCA met with park officials, devised a

recovery plan, and set about restoring the myriad washed-out habitats, trails, and campgrounds.

SCA students not only worked countless hours but also trained, managed, and supervised 1,000

additional local volunteers. According to The Seattle Post-Intelligencer, the dedication and capacity of

these young leaders helped save Mount Rainier more than $1.5 million in repair costs, and SCA teams

will be back on the mountain for much of 2008.

Moving mountains High in Utah’s Uinta range, a team of SCA volunteers worked against the clock to remove antiquated earthen dams. The structures’ weakened state posed safety hazards and their presence impeded natural water flows. Further complicating matters, wilderness regulations prohibited the use of most mechanized equipment. Professional excavators scoffed that the volunteers wouldn’t make a dent in the dams but SCA crews painstakingly dismantled the aging dams by hand, while the skeptics shook their heads.

In over a dozen other states, SCA members hiked scores of miles, bushwacked through overbrush, and crawled around massive blowdowns to map potential wildland fire fuels. Using sophisticated handheld GPS units, they uploaded critical field data used

by firefighters to monitor conditions, predict flare-ups, and determine response strategies.

Elsewhere, SCA interns converged on Mississippi’s Gulf Coast to restore lands devastated by Hurricane Katrina. Others rid Shenandoah’s skyline vistas and California’s redwood forests of noxious invasive plants. And Hannah Wahlstrom, a 17-year old from Massachusetts, spent hour after back-breaking hour with her crew setting rock cairns in Voyageurs National Park. They could have painted bright blazes, said Hannah, but “these cairns really make you feel a part of nature. This is our gift.”

SCA is fostering this generous, green spirit in young people across our nation. Because as they give back to the land, they give all of us a brighter, healthier future.

Forging connections with natureEnduring connections are born of specific encounters: the crewmates who unite to reposition a

stubborn boulder, the intern who is mentored by a supportive ranger, the wide-eyed teen who

encounters an elk in the wild. These connections occur synergistically, spontaneously, organically

– but one must be deliberately positioned to create these connections before they can take place.

SCA is the catalyst for just such an experience.

We are combating “nature-deficit disorder” among youth through innovative outdoor programs.

We are building alliances with like-minded organizations, corporations and other partners. We are

empowering SCA alumni to share their knowledge in their communities and on their campuses.

Together, we are shaping a sweeping culture of conservation.

A call to conservationInspired by SCA Founder Liz Putnam’s seminal senior thesis, SCA and Mazda last year sponsored the “Conservation in Action” Contest, challenging today’s young people to offer the next big idea in conservation. The response was overwhelming. More than 300 creative entries poured in to SCA – videos, PowerPoints, and essays – proposing wind power solutions, conservation camps, environmental justice campaigns and more. In early 2008, SCA will award grand prizes to the top entries and seek to implement the most promising of these remarkable models.

In parks and neighborhoods across the country last year, SCA alumni flexed their collective muscle like never before in both service and celebration. They cleared four tons of debris from the Oregon Trail outside Boise, collected seeds in support of Glacier National Park’s native plant nursery, rebuilt part of the Bunsen Peak Trail in Yellowstone, and much more. In all, thousands of individuals restored damaged lands and relived past experiences, but, most important, our alumni renewed their commitment to conservation.

SCA is also attracting many new members by offering a series of innovative alternative spring breaks. With the backing of a network of sponsors including American Eagle Outfitters and the US Geological Survey, student participants will protect habitats, learn about climate change, and explore resource management policies in productive, week-long “green breaks” from Acadia to San Francisco Bay.

And in April 2008, SCA will convene EarthVision: Actions for a Healthy Planet in Washington, DC. This first-of-its-kind summit, presented in cooperation with the National Park Service, will connect America’s best and brightest young people with the world’s leading environmental authorities, elected officials, distinguished scientists, corporate leaders and others to craft bold new strategies for engaging more youth in conservation.

Through these and other landmark initiatives, SCA is strengthening the bond between our people and our planet.

Seeding service and stewardshipEvery time an SCA volunteer completes a project – recording migration patterns, restoring a watershed,

preserving a prehistoric pueblo – immediate, tangible benefits result.

Yet SCA’s impact extends well beyond the actual on-the-ground work. The conservation ethic instilled

over the past five decades in more than 50,000 SCA members, their ongoing practice of responsible and

sustainable green lifestyles, and the example they share with others pay daily dividends in every corner of

our country. This is how SCA achieves its mission of building new generations of conservation leaders.

A new ethic of conservationIn Houston last year, it would have been easy for the dozen local high school students to simply stay home. But these SCA volunteers turned out in the pouring rain to participate in the largest tree planting in city history – more than 20,000 flora. By the end of the day the students were drenched to the core and coated with mud. Yet Diana Lopez could see only splendor. “Our environment is very beautiful,” she said, “and in order to keep this beauty we have to conserve it.”

This is often how it begins. Through SCA, young women and men discover their place in nature’s network and their perspectives change drastically. “Happiness is magnified out here. Everything is magnified out here,” stated Sarah Logan Beasley, a Tallahassee high school junior who served last summer in the Great Smoky Mountains. Sarah was recognized as SCA’s 50,000th volunteer at a special ceremony, and she and her crewmates were featured on the NBC Nightly News. “I’ll be back next year!” she vowed.

See the NBC Nightly News report and Mauricio Escobar’s extraordinary tale at thesca.org/annual_report

Already an SCA veteran, Mauricio Escobar was profiled in the US Department of the Interior’s 2007 report “The Future of America’s National Parks.” Years ago, Maurcio’s family fled unrest in his native El Salvador for the mean streets of South Central Los Angeles. As the DOI document relates, there he joined SCA, where Mauricio said the toughest part was not the long hours of labor or “the full body poison oak outbreak,” but “the pristine silence of nature…and the pitch-black nights.”

The contrast was stark but alluring and for years, Mauricio alternated between college and hitches with SCA until recently, after SCA “gave me a new way to interpret the world and my place in it,” Mauricio became a ranger at Klondike Gold Rush National Park in Alaska.

Through SCA, members like Mauricio move the world, and masterfully so, in a promising direction.

The lever, like our future, is in their hands.

States Salute SCA

In recognition of SCA’s golden anniversary,

the State of California presented SCA with

an elaborate framed certificate rendered

with towering Redwoods, while Gov.

Arnold Schwarzenegger (above) lauded

SCA for its “instrumental role in nurturing

our future conservation leaders.” Illinois

Governor Rod Blagojevich proclaimed

December 15th “Student Conservation

Association Day” in recognition of SCA’s

“50 years of commitment to education and

environmental conservation,” and Gov.

Elliot Spitzer of New York said “I applaud

SCA for taking an active role in ensuring

that our State remains green for future

generations to come.” Virtually all of the

50 states formally acknowledged SCA in

one form or another last year, and

New Hampshire Gov. John Lynch personally

commended SCA and Founder Elizabeth

Cushman Titus Putnam during an August visit

to SCA headquarters in Charlestown, NH.

SCA Founder Receives Rachel Carson Award

Chatham University President Esther L.

Barazzone, Ph.D., (left) presents SCA

Founding President Elizabeth Cushman

Titus Putnam with the Rachel Carson

Leadership Award during an October 2007

ceremony in Pittsburgh. “The voices of both

Rachel Carson and Elizabeth Putnam would

eventually grow to a clarion call reminding

the global community of our place in the

web of life,” said Dr. Barazzone. Ms. Carson

graduated from Pennsylvania College for

Women, now Chatham University, in 1929;

2007 marked the 100th anniversary of

Ms. Carson’s birth as well as SCA’s

50th anniversary.

Mount Rainier Recovery

SCA partnered with numerous state and local

organizations in 2007 to direct a volunteer-

driven restoration effort at storm-stricken

Mount Rainier National Park. SCA led nearly

1,000 volunteers whose service was valued at

over $1.5 million. “SCA built not just physical

bridges in the wilderness, but bridges

between the community and their national

park,” lauded Superintendent Dave Uberuaga.

50 Years, 50,000 Volunteers

Sarah Logan Beasley, 17, of Tallahassee,

FL, was recognized last year as the 50,000th

volunteer in SCA’s history. “Everything is

magnified out here. Happiness is magnified

out here,” she said of her SCA experience at

Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

This photo of Sarah Logan was featured in

The Chronicle of Philanthropy. “Seeking to

inspire a new generation of conservation

leaders,” the publication reported, “[SCA] has

ushered tens of thousands of young people

through its conservation programs and

internships nationwide.”

stated, “it does get into your soul.” Of SCA,

NBC reported that “many volunteers go on

to careers in conservation” and one student

declared “I definitely want to be a ranger in

the Park Service.” Watch the video at

GCA Partnership Still Blossoming

The Garden Club of America awarded its

prestigious Margaret Douglas Medal to

SCA for “notable service to the cause of

environmental education” at a May 2007

ceremony in Boston, MA. GCA’s support for

SCA dates back to SCA’s beginnings, and

over the years GCA and its members have

donated more than $700,000 to support

SCA members in the field. SCA Founding

President Elizabeth Cushman Titus Putnam

previously earned the Margaret Douglas

Medal in 1966.

Conservation in Action

More than 50 years after Elizabeth

Cushman’s senior thesis launched

SCA, SCA and Mazda asked the young

people of America for “the next big idea

in conservation” – and did we get ideas!

Hundreds of creative and thoughtful essays,

videos, PowerPoints and more poured in

from all over the country, addressing issues

ranging from climate change to recycling

and alternative fuels. “The SCA-Mazda

Conservation in Action Contest will spur

new thinking, new dialogue, and most

importantly new practices to help protect

our environment,” says Jay Amestoy, vice

president of public and government affairs

for Mazda North American Operations and

a contest judge. Top prize in the contest:

a brand new MAZDA3 and $10,000,

with additional prizes totaling more than

$20,000. Mazda, a long time sponsor of

SCA, has supported the placement of SCA

interns in each of the 50 states for the past

12 years.

Pull in a High Return and Save Taxes with an SCA Gift Annuity

Pull in a high return for life from a gift of cash, stock or mutual funds (minimum $5,000). You can begin to receive your annuity payments immediately. Or you can “push them off” until a later date, increasing your future annuity rate.

You will get an income tax deduction for a portion of the value of your gift. And part of your annuity may be completely tax-free!

Your gift will empower young people to pull together, working to protect the environment for years to come.

Age 65 - 6.0% Age 80 - 8.0%Age 70 - 6.5% Age 85 - 9.5%Age 75 - 7.1% Age 90 - 11.3%

Conservation Campaign

SCA reached more targeted audiences,

more often in 2007 through its partnership

with Hill & Knowlton, a leading international

communications consultancy and official

sponsor of SCA’s 50th anniversary. Feature

articles in La Opinion, Al Borde, and other

Spanish-language publications helped SCA

strengthen its ties to the Hispanic and Latino

communities, and Hill & Knowlton also

extended SCA’s outreach in the nation’s top

metropolitan areas. In addition, MaryLee

Sachs, Chairman of Hill & Knowlton USA,

was an active member of SCA’s

50th Anniversary Honorary Committee,

while Chief Operating Officer Gene Reineke

continues to offer insightful counsel as a

member of SCA’s board of directors. SCA is

grateful for their enthusiastic support

and service.

40 Student Conservation Association

For the 20th consecutive year, SCA achieved an operating surplus. Total Support and Revenue in 2007 increased over 16% from the previous year to $27.7 million. SCA was successful in expanding our agency relationships and developing new partnerships. We continually review and revise our program models to meet the changing demands of our partners. We are operating in an environment of tighter budgets while the demand for conservation service continues to expand. The combination of carefully managed costs and our ability to attract superior volunteers allows SCA to meet this demand.

SCA is focused on expense control and administrative cost management. Eighty-four percent of 2007 expenses were directly committed to program activities. We focus our investment on the young people who will serve as “the next generation of conservation leaders.” As a result, for another year, SCA received among the highest rankings from the standard-bearing American Institute of Philanthropy for financial performance and fundraising efficiency, and Charity Navigator’s highest four-star rating.

Over $7 million in donations, grants, and bequests came from very generous individual supporters, foundations, and corporations. This level of support ensures that SCA can continue to expand the educational and conservation activities available to our interns. In addition, we expanded our inner city programs thereby offering opportunities to a more diverse group of young people while supporting the conservation and educational needs of our cities.

Copies of the complete audited financial statements of the Student Conservation Association, Inc. are available upon request.

Respectfully submitted,

Richard J. Seaman Chief Financial Officer
