We created a simple and thorough application form, annual reporting process, and conducted site visits for several projects. In all, we sent grants to 67 individual charitable projects involved with education, reafforestation, farming and food production, health and healing, women's empowerment, rural development, vocational training, and more. We also provided coaching and technical support to enhance their capacity.Our grants have resulted in dozens of young people receiving in-depth training and career development in coding and digital marketing, hundreds of students receiving high quality education with special attention to creativity and personal development, and thousands of trees being planted in Auroville. We supported an international conference on Computational Linguistics, the first stages of a vocational training program for Auroville youth, and a shelter that cares for dozens of stray and abandoned dogs. And we helped further the development of the gardens around the Matrimandir, Aurovilles spiritual center. All the grants that we sent came from our own fundraising activities, including public awareness campaigns, donor cultivation and stewardship, and grant writing. And we also sent monthly email newsletters, and hosted several livestream events that connected our global audience with people doing interesting and innovative work in Auroville. Throughout the year we collected funds from donors with a general interest in supporting Auroville, and in December we used those funds to match all donations to our vetted projects. Overall we raised over $200k for Auroville projects in December.We also partnered with the India Development and Relief Fund, which matched our grants for several projects, expanding our grantmaking capacity even further. 547505 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false true true false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 4 0 true 3 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 9 7 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false CA X X X Matthew Andrews 4138351280 PO Box 188158 Sacramento CA 95818 Matthew Andrews President & CEO 40.00 0.00 X X 68400 0 0 Binah Thillairajah Vice President 40.00 0.00 X X 68400 0 0 Mary Alexander Treasurer 20.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Bill Leon Secretary 3.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Jack Alexander Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Judith Checoi Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Margaret Greer Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Julian Lines Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Flavia Montenegro Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 136800 0 false false false 0 817153 817153 0 5 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 817158 5 10700 10700 0 405700 405700 0 144868 73993 20700 50175 0 10563 8767 740 1056 0 515 36 453 26 21053 10829 2895 7329 0 27125 27125 24669 24669 0 0 0 20301 16709 1517 2075 0 148 135 13 9183 199 3736 5248 0 0 13130 9164 3253 713 0 4710 4710 0 0 0 0 Bank and Merchant Fees 14530 98 56 14376 Program Expenses 9572 9572 Postage and Shipping 1650 1232 304 114 Computer Hardware 1203 1203 1874 371 800 703 721494 547505 92174 81815 85006 63557 27532 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 119 0 100000 233806 0 0 0 0 212538 297482 45976 23256 2447 8151 48423 31407 X 164115 266075 164115 266075 212538 297482 95664 14546 -8250 X false false false X 198334 659579 564449 616743 817153 2856258 0 0 198334 659579 564449 616743 817153 2856258 257610 2598648 2 18 11 5 36 0 0 2856294 0.90980 0.70080 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Payroll Liabilities 8151 8151 true South Asia - India 0 0 Grant to Organization 405700 405700 405700 South Asia Operations 405700 wire 1 false false false false false false Part I, Line 2 - Grantmakers Explanation For Monitoring Use of Funds Outside US THE ORGANIZATION SENDS NEARLY ALL INTERNATIONAL GRANTS TO THE AUROVILLE FOUNDATION.ANY TIME FUNDS ARE ALLOCATED TO A SUB-UNIT OF AUROVILLE FOUNDATION, THE ORGANIZATIONCONTACTS THAT SUB-UNIT DIRECTLY TO CONFIRM RECEIPT OF FUNDS.
