“AIF’s sustained work over the last decade has not only made a tangible difference to thousands of
Indians who are yet to see the benefits of the country’s macro-economic success but is increasingly
having scale impact by influencing government policy on meeting the needs and rights of the poor.”

A DECADE OF ACTION
A LIFETIME OF IMPACT
Today, the narrative of India’s 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 India’s long-term development challenges, we’ve 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 children’s 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.

[ FROM OUR HONORARY CHAIR ]
Dear Friend:
In the wake of the 2001 earthquake in Gujarat, people around the United States came forward willing to lend a
hand to those impacted in western India. Inspired by that outpouring of support, the founders of AIF created
a permanent organization to serve as a trusted bridge for philanthropy between the U.S. and India.
Ten years later, AIF has positively influenced the lives of millions of marginalized people in Gujarat and beyond. And this year, AIF’s Clinton Fellowship for Service program will begin to incorporate young professional
Indians into the program as well, providing an exciting opportunity for the future leaders of United States and
India to work together in support of those in need. I am confident that the experience of this Fellowship will
empower them to continue learning about one another and serving their nations in the years to come.
Thank you to all those supporters who have made AIF’s journey over the past decade possible.
Sincerely,
William Jefferson Clinton

FROM OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS
]
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 significant milestone within AIF’s 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 efficiently.
Over this time, we have greatly expanded our footprint in the U.S.
There are now well-established and flourishing 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 diversified 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 identified 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 influence 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 confident we will be able to achieve
greater impact on the lives of more people in AIF’s second decade.
We could not do this without your continued involvement. We are very
grateful for your support and your guidance.
Sincerely,
Victor Menezes

Dear Friends,
On behalf of AIF’s Board of Directors, Trustees, staff, and the extended network of tireless volunteers, I would like to present this
year’s 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 decade’s 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.
[ FROM OUR CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER ]
• The Digital Equalizer (DE) program has now reached 24,000
teachers and 750,000 children in 2,077 schools across India. Additionally, we have just signed agreements allowing us to expand
this program with the introduction of “DE-Lite,” which will exist as
a sustainability component that will provide some oversight in DE
schools after AIF finishes our work there, ensuring successful use
of the technology for years to come in impoverished areas.
• The Learning and Migration Program (LAMP) has educated over
237,500 children in predominantly rural areas where the children,
who are members of migrant families, would likely have dropped
out of the school system at an early age. This past year we began to
incorporate more girls-only LAMP hostels and education centers,
which allowed us to increase number of young girls who enter and
stay in the program.
• Our Market Aligned Skills Training (MAST) program had a very
successful year, cumulatively reaching 60,000 young unemployed
and untrained individuals across India, while launching a partnership with the Wadhwani Foundation to significantly scale-up the
focus on job training for individuals with disabilities.
• Rickshaw Sangh nearly doubled the number of rickshaw drivers
participating in the program over the past year to reach 17,000
individuals while also increasing the number of social value-added services like bank accounts, financial literacy, and uniforms,
among others. Perhaps most impressively, the number of rickshaws jointly owned by husband and wife increased and has become a focal point of the program, spreading the benefits directly
to the whole family.
• AIF’s “William J. Clinton Fellowship for Service in India” had another stellar year, sending 24 excellent young Americans to work
with NGOs across India, and bringing the number of Fellows sent
to India to more than 230.
Lastly, over this past year we incorporated a number of new members in the AIF family at the Board, Trustee, and staff levels, all of
whom have joined us with high levels of energy and excitement for
our organizational mission, and who have already begun to make
a demonstrable impact for us. Clearly, 2010-2011 was another banner year for AIF and a suitable ending to our first decade as an organization, and we eagerly look forward to seeing that this upward
progression for AIF promises only good things to come.
With heartfelt gratitude for your support,
Dr. Sanjay Sinho

[ CATALYZING SECTORWIDE CHANGE ]
When a group of dedicated, visionary individuals came together
to support the victims of the Gujarat earthquake in 2001, the
collective philanthropic platform – and the seeds of a movement – of the American India Foundation were born. From the
very beginning, AIF’s founding members understood that its
vision to build a lasting bridge between the world’s two largest
democracies, and to transform India into a more open, inclusive, and vibrant society by creating meaningful opportunities
for India’s poor would require the collective will, knowledge,
and participation of all sectors in society.
That’s precisely what we have done over the first ten years of
our journey, from mobilizing the U.S. diaspora, to providing
emergency relief and rehabilitation, to strategic grantmaking
helping emerging organizations in India’s civil society sector
to launch and flourish, to developing and scaling our own suite
of development solutions in the critical areas of education,
livelihoods, and public health. Guided by the deep local knowledge and experience of our skilled professionals on the ground,
AIF’s multidisciplinary approach empowers local communities
to participate actively in their own development, partners with
NGOs to develop and test innovations, and invests in their capacity to scale those solutions with demonstrated impact. Furthermore, we build coalitions of funding agencies in the private
sector to leverage these investments to maximum impact, and
work closely with governments to advocate for policy change to
ensure that our solutions last a lifetime.

“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.”
]
[ SAVING LIVES ]
For the one hundred and fifty 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 financial 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 village’s
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 fields 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 first child.”
[ CREATING A FOUNDATION ]
Education has been at the core of AIF’s 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 couldn’t do anything to
help,” laments Sagar Kumar, a student in AIF’s 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 child’s labor to help gain
enough income to support the family. From young
children of rural migrants to those living in urban
slums, AIF’s 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, AIF’s largest education initiative, we provide thousands of the country’s 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 AIF’s three to five
year intervention concludes.
Even in today’s 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 Bachelor’s 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 India’s goals for sustainable development requires not
only hard work and dedication, but also leaders with the firsthand
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 efficient and effective.
livelihood practices. “My project work gave me immense insight
into the complex issues facing our world’s agricultural communities and the negative environmental health effects of food production experienced by India’s 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.”
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 India’s 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.
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 fields, 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.
As Lindsey Adkisson, a 2011-12 graduating Fellow serving in the
Rishi Valley Rural Health Centre in Andhra Pradesh, reflects, 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
[ EQUALIZING ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY ]
A vast amount of India’s economic activity occurs in the informal
sector – a vicious cycle for workers trapped in bleak conditions
with no prospects for the future and businesses that lack access
to resources needed to grow and flourish. This widespread activity
creates systemic problems as well, with the government unable to
collect taxes and thus finance the essential social services India’s
population so desperately needs. Workers in the informal sector
commonly suffer from unstable and shockingly low wages with no
access to basic social services and protections. The
AIF approach intervenes at all levels – the individual, the institution, and the public sector – to tackle
this complex social problem, creating sustainable
livelihoods for individuals, families, and communities while transforming India’s formal sector.
As India undergoes dramatic demographic change,
with mass urbanization accompanied by a rapidly
growing population under the age of twenty-five,
the productivity of urban youth is critical to India’s
future economic growth. However, millions of these
youth come from disadvantaged backgrounds with
no access to educational opportunities and thus
lack the basic skills necessary to obtain gainful employment. At the
same time, urban companies across India are experiencing high
growth in many sectors, resulting in a fundamental imbalance in the
labor market. AIF’s Market Aligned Skills Training (MAST) program
addresses these systemic issues by providing marginalized, unemployed youth with a comprehensive skills training program that
equips them with the knowledge and skills needed to secure employment and succeed on the job. MAST “is a leveler,” says Dharmesh
Mackwana, a program graduate now working for the HP-owned
Mphasis, a leading IT services company. “It doesn’t matter whether
you are a graduate or a dropout, everyone is given a chance here and
we are all treated the same. This equity what I like most about the
program.”
For the 8 million cycle rickshaw drivers in urban areas across India,
nearly all pay daily rent to owners at often usurious rates that make
their daily earnings insufficient to sustain their
families. A majority of drivers are migrants from
their home village seeking a better livelihood, only
to find themselves lacking access to credit, the
ability to obtain ration cards, or qualify for other
essential social services. AIF’s Rickshaw Sangh addresses these fundamentally interconnected issues
by enabling rickshaw drivers to own their vehicles
through access to formal credit, while providing
a comprehensive package of services and benefits
including bank accounts, driver’s license, ID cards,
asset and life insurance, uniforms, and municipal
permits. The program’s interlocking services not
only ensure the well-being of the entire family, they
also empower women to become entrepreneurs in their families and
beyond by launching new enterprises in a number of fields, such
as ownership of food carts. For Shama Pavin, the Rickshaw Sangh
program engendered these new opportunities. When she lost her
husband, she migrated to Lucknow with her two children in search
of better work. Through her determination, she formed a women’s
collective to become financial leaders in their families and business
owners by owning and renting a joint rickshaw.

“AIF’s 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. AIF’s successes showcase the special role the Indian American diaspora plays in the
US-India relationship—a 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 AIF’s 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 India’s development challenges can be a lifelong task.
Our focus across the United States on outreach and engagement
is embedded within AIF’s 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 India’s 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
AIF’s 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, Washing-
ton, 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, AIF’s 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 AIF’s 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 world’s two best diaspora philanthropy
organizations in 2010.

Dear Friends,
Based on principles of accountability, transparency, and financial efficiency, the American India Foundation ensures that every dollar contributed is both maximized and spent as efficiently
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 India’s
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 efficient 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 financial 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 financial 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 reflected 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,
Neil Lachman, CPA
CFO, American India Foundation
