BUDGET ALLOCATION AND GRANT DISTRIBUTION

Board members raise funds via donations by friends and family, grants, corporate sponsorship and special fundraising events , including the Foundation Golf-athon held annually in April. In FY2008 the Foundation will provide more than $70,000 in contributions and grants. Administrative and fundraising expenses are less than 10% of funds raised (this includes fees for incorporation and fees for filing with the IRS). The Foundation does not reimburse board members for the cost of trips to Thailand to visit the schools and orphanage.
