AIFs sustained work over the last decade has not only made a tangible difference to thousands of Indians who are yet to see the benets of the countrys macro-economic success but is increasingly having scale impact by inuencing government policy on meeting the needs and rights of the poor. Salil Shetty, Secretary General, Amnesty International
1.5
Today, the narrative of Indias emerging grandeur through rapid economic growth and its symbolism as a bold and powerful tiger set to join the Chinese dragon to make Asia an economic power is alluring. Yet this story paints an incomplete portrait of a complex society that defies generalization, marked by stunning contrasts and an unparalleled human and cultural diversity. For those of us who have experienced India firsthand, we understand that this is still a country grappling with devastating poverty, its growth leaving many of its citizens behind in the margins of society.
In order to meet Indias long-term development challenges, weve realized the need to be responsive, open, and adaptable to rapidly changing needs on the ground and listen closely to the voices that often go unheard. While building an organization that is professional, transparent, credible, secular, and knowledge-based, we have sought to design solutions that are not only assured to make longterm impact, but that are designed along a development life cycle. This runs the gamut from ensuring the health of new mothers and infants, to building the foundation for childrens success through education, to creating sustainable livelihoods and the link to formal employment for adults to guarantee that economic growth is an equitable opportunity. As we reflect back upon the first ten years of our journey, we can say with confidence that this was truly a decade of action with a lifetime of impact.

[
Dear Friends,
AIF is ten years old and still growing! We have evolved from an organization that primarily raised funds and made grants to Indian NGOs to one of the largest, secular, India-focused philanthropies in the U.S., and now implement cutting-edge signature programs of our own in partnership with NGOs. In doing so, we have reached over 1.5 million marginalized Indians while positively affecting many more. This continued involvement is a testimony to the fact that we are an organization whose sum is greater than its parts, whose mission and purpose propel the AIF Board, Trustees, and staff to work for the less fortunate in India and strengthen the bridge between the two greatest democracies in the world. A signicant milestone within AIFs growth occurred in 2008. We decided to build on our programmatic experience and concentrate our focus on programs which had the highest return on investment and impact on the marginalized through policy and direct intervention. In doing so, we were able to build scale, increase our presence in India, and perhaps most importantly, leverage our knowledge and experience so that all of our programs run more effectively and efciently. Over this time, we have greatly expanded our footprint in the U.S. There are now well-established and ourishing AIF chapters in Chicago, Boston, Los Angeles, Washington D.C., and Dallas, with most of these cities also producing robust Young Professionals networks. Additionally, our membership, including the Board, Trustees, staff, volunteers, and donors, has become greatly diversied to incorporate a much higher percentage of non-Indians. We are very proud of this as it will further bolster relationships between India and the U.S. in the future.
Looking towards the next ten years, we have identied several key areas on which to focus. Gender and equality will be more explicitly integrated into our existing programs. Women tend to be more marginalized in current Indian society, and we now plan to incorporate projects that focus on education for girls and livelihoods for women in addition to our established maternal and neonatal health programs. To this end, we have already begun to open more Digital Equalizer labs in girls schools. Furthermore, we are in the process of developing full-time staff positions in India that will focus purely on gender issues. Beyond gender, we will consciously work on creating, disseminating, and implementing our lessons learned to inuence the sector, increase opportunities for individuals with disabilities, and expand into geographies where we do not currently have a presence. Our future is bright, and we are condent we will be able to achieve greater impact on the lives of more people in AIFs second decade. We could not do this without your continued involvement. We are very grateful for your support and your guidance. Sincerely,
Dear Friends, On behalf of AIFs Board of Directors, Trustees, staff, and the extended network of tireless volunteers, I would like to present this years annual report. 2010-11 was very noteworthy for AIF, not just in the amount of work that we accomplished this year, but also in the completion of a decades worth of effort for our organization. We have now directly reached over 1.5 million marginalized Indians, and when you consider that for every young woman who we teach a livelihood to in MAST, every rickshaw driver we help attain his own vehicle through Rickshaw Sangh, or every child that we keep in school in LAMP, their entire families and even their communities are positively affected so that the magnitude of our reach is exponentially greater than what we present here. I am also proud to recount that as the global economy slowly picks up after several dark years of recession, AIF was able to increase our inputs and up our revenue from the prevous year by nearly $1 million. Given that we pride ourselves at AIF on keeping an extremely low overhead, with nearly 85% of funding going directly to on the ground program costs, this $1 million increase alone has contributed to reaching a significantly greater number of people than last year. Part of this was through new programs that were launched, including branching into new parts of the country, increasing our services to women, and availing more support for individuals with disabilities. Our signature programs continue to mature and become increasingly self-sustaining enterprises, allowing us to further leverage and scale them up. A few of the cumulative and yearly highlights of these programs are on the following page.

I will save each and every child of my village so that there is not a single helpless mother in the village like me who can do nothing but wait and watch her child collapse in front of her. It will be my tribute to my first child.
[ American India Foundation - 16 - Annual Report 2010 - 2011 ]
[ SAVING LIVES ]
For the one hundred and fty residents of Jankipur village in the predominantly tribal state of Jharkhand, travel is an arduous task. With a rough hillside terrain and dilapidated dirt paths, Jankipur is one of the most remote locations in the Seraikela district. With the closest health center nearly ten miles away, the prohibitive distance and nancial cost makes the trip impossible for the majority of villagers, most of whom live in poverty. Nearly 100% of childbirths in Jankipur are conducted at home. The villages only community health worker, Champa Manjhi, a kind and gentle 24 year old, is responsible for the provision of care and overall health of the village. The only support she receives from the government is a visit by the state health department four times a year. As a result of the overall lack of healthcare services, Jharkhand has the second highest newborn mortality rate in the country, with the widespread practice of home deliveries denying the basic and essential care needed to ensure a healthy start to life. Mothers also face a shockingly high risk of death due to the inaccessibility of quality care. When Champa became pregnant, she continued with her daily life as before, balancing her time as a health worker alongside work in the elds and at home in order to support her family. The strain this put on her body may have contributed to her developing anemia and jaundice during the later stages of her pregnancy, and she gave birth to a premature baby boy. The poor condition of her health and the inaccessibility of any health facility prevented Champa from seeking any additional care, and her child collapsed in front of her at the mere age of twenty-one days. The tragic loss left Champa hopeless, and she quit her job as health worker immediately. Months later, another health worker visiting Jankipur told Champa about an innovative training program, operated by AIF, designed to build the knowledge and skills of health workers in home-based newborn care. Launched in 2009, the Maternal and Newborn Survival Initiative (MANSI) is a public-private partnership with the Jharkhand state government1 and Tata Steel Rural Development Society that provides preventative and curative care for both mothers and newborns all the way from the individual household to government health facilities to ensure new mothers and infants have the care they need to survive, prepare for, and thrive during and after pregnancy. MANSI strengthens the ability of local communities to provide home-based care through an innovative surveillance system while leveraging an existing government maternity incentive scheme to increase the number of institutional deliveries. The training Champa has received through MANSI has given her new hope and the passion to help others. I will not bow down to the inevitable, she remarks. I will save each and every child of my village so that there is not a single helpless mother in the village like me who can do nothing but wait and watch her child collapse in front of her. It will be my tribute to my rst child.
[ CREATING A FOUNDATION ]
Education has been at the core of AIFs work since our inception. We believe that education is an essential foundation for a successful and productive life, the great equalizer of opportunity, and the universal bridge that connects dreams to reality. I saw my father suffer so much for so long, and I couldnt do anything to help, laments Sagar Kumar, a student in AIFs Learning and Migration Program (LAMP) at the Millard Government School, from a nearby slum in Patna. His dream is to become a doctor. Through LAMP, Sagar has not only gained important knowledge, but also key life skills such as hard work and dedication that have enabled him to balance life in school with work in a health clinic to help fulfill his long-term goal at the young age of 13. Yet for millions of children in India living in poverty, a formal education is simply not an option as parents often need their childs labor to help gain enough income to support the family. From young children of rural migrants to those living in urban slums, AIFs suite of education programs ensure that some of the most marginalized groups have access to high-quality educational opportunities, embrace the joy of learning, and gain critical life skills alongside 21st century technological knowledge to prepare them for life outside the classroom and the global economy. The LAMP program provides out-of-school children of migrant families with age-appropriate, student-centered learning to establish a solid foundation with which to continue and excel in their studies. We also place quality teaching at the forefront of all of our programs with the understanding that teaching and learning are an interconnected, mutually reinforcing process. In our Digital Equalizer (DE) program, AIFs largest education initiative, we provide thousands of the countrys most underserved schools with access to technology as well as the skills and knowledge for teachers to increase student outcomes and engagement through interactive, project-based learning techniques. AIF has been able to scale this program across India by forming long-term partnerships with many state governments that provide the technological infrastructure to launch the program, enabling AIF to focus on increasing the capacities of schools so they may sustain the Digital Equalizer program after AIFs three to five year intervention concludes. Even in todays interconnected, technological age, participation in the DE program is the first time many students have seen or touched a computer. The magic of technology is put directly into the hands of students to unlock their learning potential and creativity. Ranjeet Kaur, who dropped out of school for three years after losing her father, beams proudly: My world changed forever. I became part of a world where people dreamed and did great things to bring positive change into the world, and she will now be pursuing a Bachelors degree in Computer Applications this upcoming year. After watching her students give a presentation on gender disparity in India and the United Nations Millennium Develop Goals, teacher Chandra Malkan proudly beams, There are no longer any limits to what my students can achieve.
The Fellowship gave me the chance to learn to be a contributing and active member of a place far different than my own; it taught me the importance of strong relationships and the power that comes from local solutions.
[ DEVELOPING LEADERS ]
Meeting Indias goals for sustainable development requires not only hard work and dedication, but also leaders with the rsthand knowledge and real-world skills necessary to deliver practical solutions while building meaningful partnerships. Through its William J. Clinton Fellowship for Service in India, AIF is helping to shape the next generation of leaders committed to building lasting change for underprivileged communities across India, while also strengthening the civil sector landscape to be more efcient and effective. Placing talented young American professionals in service with NGOs in India, the Fellowship creates a meaningful exchange of technical skills and intellectual resources, establishing transformative partnerships that build the capacity of Indias civil society while empowering talented young Americans to be agents of change and leaders with a deep understanding of and continued commitment to India.Fellows engage in a wide variety of projects that match their skills and resources with NGO partners critical needs to produce collaborative results that have demonstrated and sustainable impact. As Lindsey Adkisson, a 2011-12 graduating Fellow serving in the Rishi Valley Rural Health Centre in Andhra Pradesh, reects, the Fellowship was both a tremendously rewarding and challenging experience. Focused in a small rural community, Lindsey found herself engaged in the interconnected issues of public health, natural resource management, and sustainable agriculture in her work to lead community education and empowerment for better health and livelihood practices. My project work gave me immense insight into the complex issues facing our worlds agricultural communities and the negative environmental health effects of food production experienced by Indias rural poor. Living in the Rishi Valley also gave me the chance to learn to be a contributing and active member of a place far different than my own; it taught me the importance of strong relationships and the power that comes from local solutions. The Fellowship creates a community of socially engaged, global citizens who represent the leaders of tomorrow. Alumni of the program have become leaders and entrepreneurs in business, international development, academia, journalism and other elds, all while engendering a passionate dedication to bring their own visions to light. Jessica Mayberry, a Fellow in the 2002-03 class, had never been to India prior to embarking on her Fellowship with SEVA in Ahmemdabad. Yet a mere year later, Jessica had launched her own NGO in India, Video Volunteers, which provides disadvantaged communities with journalistic skills and their own voice in the global media revolution. With the largest network of salaried community video producers in the world, Video Volunteers has reached more than 300,000 people in villages and slums across India. Jessica will bring her experience full-circle by hosting and mentoring her own Clinton Fellow in this coming year. The Fellowship program has become both a collective force and a selfsustaining network, committed to a long-term agenda dedicated to service for the underprivileged in India.
MAST is a leveler. It doesnt matter whether you are a graduate or a dropout, everyone is given a chance here and we are all treated the same.
AIFs vision to build an institution focused on voluntarism and resource mobilization, linking Americans with India, all in the service of creative social and economic change in India, has built a truly living bridge between the United States and India. AIFs successes showcase the special role the Indian American diaspora plays in the US-India relationshipa central part of the people-to-people ties that bind America and India together in the indispensible partnership of the 21st Century. We look forward to the next decade ahead, and to AIFs next ten years of innovation in service to both nations. Assistant Secretary Robert O. Blake, South and Central Affairs, U.S. Department of State
[ BUILDING A MOVEMENT ]
Understanding the magnitude and complexity of Indias development challenges can be a lifelong task. Our focus across the United States on outreach and engagement is embedded within AIFs mission and vision: to build a trusted bridge between the two largest democracies of the world by mobilizing individuals and institutions in the United States to engage in philanthropy that creates equitable opportunities for Indias poor an essential prerequisite for its democracy to flourish. Out of the tragedy of the 2001 Gujarat earthquake arose a catalytic event, unifying the Indian diaspora with an outpouring of support at the founding of AIF. In the process of building a credible, professional institution designed as an effective and collective philanthropy platform for the diaspora, we also expanded our reach to a national audience by developing a network of chapters that today form the heart of AIFs presence in the United States. Through chapters in major metropolitan areas across the country, including New York, the San Francisco Bay Area, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, Washington, DC, Dallas, and Seattle, AIF helped galvanize a movement that consisted of an astonishing range of individuals bound together with a commitment to creating lasting change in India. Today, AIFs longstanding tradition of Galas and other events continues to flourish and contribute to the ongoing evolution of the organization. At the 2010 Boston Gala, a multiyear, multimillion dollar knowledge partnership was announced by the Charles and Agnes Kazarian Foundation, which served as a testament to both the collective power of community as well as AIFs longstanding commitment as a learning organization seeking to develop ever stronger expertise in delivering the highest impact to participants on the ground and the highest return on donor investments. We wish to recognize and thank this deep network of volunteers and supporters of nearly 10,000 individuals for their invaluable commitment to contributing to our sustained growth resulting in global recognition as one of the worlds two best diaspora philanthropy organizations in 2010.

Dear Friends, Based on principles of accountability, transparency, and nancial efciency, the American India Foundation ensures that every dollar contributed is both maximized and spent as efciently as possible. We expend the greatest effort accurately tracking, monitoring and allocating contributions towards our programs on the ground in India to catalyze sectorwide change for Indias most impoverished and marginalized communities. This is my second year as Chief Financial Officer for AIF (with an annual salary of $1) and I am pleased to report that we have made much progress in revenue and in our outlay for programs. As always, we are thankful for the generosity of those who contribute to our mission. Our annual revenue, nearly all of which comes from contributions, grants, and events, increased by 19.2%, an accomplishment we can be proud of. We continue to be as efcient as possible with our funding, with program services accounting for 84% of our total expenditures, and we were able to reduce our general and administration expenses by 21.2% over the previous year. The pie chart alongside shows the percentage of each element in both revenue and expenses, and the statement and graph next to that show our revenue and expenses over our ten year history. Additionally, we have provided the two statements on the next page to show the comparison between last year and this year in each main item of revenue and expense. On the administrative side, we increased our nancial due diligence by hiring a CPA as Financial Controller in the U.S. and are in the process of hiring another as Financial Controller in India. The Controller has helped us increase our nancial due diligence by exercising greater control over expenses. We have also hired several individuals in the U.S. to increase our outreach, social engagement, and grant procurement abilities, and their additions are reected in our increase in revenue. Not everyone has the opportunity to be able to give. Only the lucky ones are privileged to serve and give, and the reward can be plentiful indeed, beyond measure. Always at your service,
