For the 2nd year in a row, any comparative statistics
(except for income and expenses) contained in this report
are not readily apparent–disappointing. Revenue is also
unclear (see p. 6-7). We are told that, of expenses:
Administration 11%. Fund raising 12%. “In FY05, it
supported the self-help efforts of more than 370,000 women
and their families in 15 countries” (p. 3).
In the section titled “Fulfilling the promise” (p. 8-10),
donors are listed and ranked into categories by amount
donated. The top category is $100,000+ in which 3 donors
are listed. These include: GlaxoSmithKline (African
Malaria Partnership). U.S. Agency for International
Development (USAID).
On the inside rear cover of this oversized, portfoliostyle
report is a “pocket” which holds three glossy full-color
