The Foundation is a 501 c 3 non-profit corporation independent from any religious organization. Its tax ID number is 26-2981780. All contributions are tax deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law. Thanks to you! This edition of the Cornerstone is dedicated in large part to recognition of the more than 400 individuals, families, organizations and foundations that have contributed thus far to the Foundation s project for the restoration of the Carmel Mission. These contributions to date have allowed the Foundation to fund over half a million dollars in expenditures for professional fees in conjunction with the investigative, discovery and design phases of the project. Commencement of actual construction on the Basilica is scheduled for May, but some preliminary pieces of the project have been evidenced, for instance, by the removal of the entry arch in December. This was prompted by concerns about the structural stability of the arch but also, coincidentally, it was a necessary condition prerequisite to commencement of work on the Basilica roof, since the entryway will be utilized as the access point for some of the construction equipment. Additionally, the completion and approval by the City of Carmel of a survey of the trees on the Mission grounds has allowed the removal of several large yew trees that were both invasive structurally and obscuring the view of the Mission. The past year has been extremely gratifying for the Foundation. The success of the Tricentennial Capital Campaign reflects a growing awareness of the critical nature of the Mission s structural condition. This is coupled with our IN THE NEWS donors appreciation for the Mission as The Foundation was recognized by both a unique repository of history, art the AT&T Tournament s Birdies for and architecture, as well as a venue that Charity Program as one of the Program s top charitable is fundamental to the community s organizations, out of a group of cultural, economic, religious and social almost 100 from the Central Coast fabric.
