RVF IS A NON-POLITICAL, NON-PARTISAN CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION. 0 0 753941 51874 314220 RVF WORKS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH LOCAL GOVERNMENTS TO CREATE SUSTAINABLE PUBLIC HEALTH PROGRAMS FOR CHILDREN. THE LARGEST SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS ARE PROGRAMS INTRODUCING MODERN VACCINES FOR CHILDREN INTO THE NATIONAL ROUTINE VACCINATION SCHEDULES IN MIDDLE INCOME COUNTRIES (MICS) AND PUBLISHING THE EPIDEMIOLOGICAL RESULTS OF THE PROGRAMS IN PEER-REVIEWED SCIENTIFIC JOURNALS. THE PROGRAMS ARE IMPLEMENTED ENTIRELY BY LOCAL HEALTH CARE WORKERS, THEREBY BUILDING LOCAL CAPACITY AND OWNERSHIP FROM THE BEGINNING, AND ARE FULLY SUSTAINED BY THE HOST GOVERNMENTS WITHIN 3 YEARS OF INCEPTION. THANKS TO RVF-SUPPORTED VACCINATION PROGRAMS OVER 10 MILLION YOUNG CHILDREN, STUDENTS AND MEDICAL WORKERS IN SUCH DIVERSE GEOGRAPHIC LOCATIONS AS THE CAUCASUS, RUSSIA, THE WEST BANK AND GAZA HAVE BEEN VACCINATED AGAINST KILLER DISEASES SUCH AS PNEUMONIA, MENINGITIS, MEASLES, HEPATITIS B, AND ROTAVIRUS. EACH OF THESE COMPLETED VACCINATION PROGRAMS IS NOW BEING FULLY SUSTAINED WITH LOCAL RESOURCES. IN 2020, THE RVF INITATIATED ROTAVIRUS VACCINATION PROGRAM FOR ALL INFANTS IN GAZA AND THE WEST BANK - APPROXIMATELY 135,000 BABIES ANNUALLY - CONTINUED TO BE FULLY SUSTAINED BY THE PALESTINIAN MINISTRY OF HEALTH, WHICH CLEARLY DEMONSTRATES THAT THE RVF MODEL OF CREATING SUSTAINABLE CHILDREN'S HEALTH PROGRAMS WORKS EVEN IN POLITICALLY AND ECONOMICALLY CHALLENGING SETTINGS DURING A PANDEMIC! VACCINATION COVERAGE RATES ARE >97%, AND HEALTH FACILITIES ACROSS THE WEST BANK AND GAZA HAVE SEEN A SIGNIFICANT DROP IN CHILDREN PRESENTING WITH ACUTE WATERY DIARRHEA SINCE THE INTRODUCTION OF THE ROTAVIRUS VACCINE. IN PARTNERSHIP WITH PATH AND WITH FINANCING FROM THE BMGF RVF NEARED COMPLETION OF ROTAVIRUS SURVEILLANCE DOCUMENTING THE IMPACT OF THE ROTAVIRUS VACCINE ON THE DISEASE BURDEN, WHICH WILL BE WRITTEN UP FOR PUBLICATION IN A PEER-REVIEWED JOURNAL. RVF ASSISTED THE PALESTINIAN MOH TO SWITCH TO A NEW PNEUMOCOCCAL CONJUGATE VACCINE (PCV), WHICH WILL RESULT IN SIGNIFICANT SAVINGS TO THE MOH. DESPITE MAJOR CHALLENGES CAUSED BY THE CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC, RVF WAS ABLE TO LAUNCH THE SECOND 3-YEAR RESEARCH ON PNEUMOCOCCAL DISEASE FINANCED BY PFIZER IN RUSSIA AND KAZAKHSTAN, AND ADDED TWO OTHER COUNTRIES, UZBEKISTAN AND BELARUS, TO THE RESEARCH. THE PROGRAM HAS AN IMPORTANT LABORATORY CAPACITY BUILDING COMPONENT IN EACH OF THE THREE COUNTRIES. THE INITIAL EPIDEMIOLOGICAL FINDINGS WERE PUBLISHED IN AN IMPORTANT PEER-REVIEWED JOURNAL, DIAGNOSTIC MICROBIOLOGY AND INFECTIOUS DISEASE. IN NOVEMBER 2020 RVF BEGAN ITS ROTAVIRUS SURVEILLANCE IN EGYPT FINANCED BY THE BMGF. THIS REPRESENTS THE FIRST PHASE OF A COMPREHENSIVE ROTAVIRUS INITIATIVE IN THE COUNTRY, WHICH INCLUDES THE NATIONWIDE INTRODUCTION OF THE ROTAVIRUS VACCINE FOR INFANTS AND THE TRANSFER OF THE VACCINE MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY TO EGYPT. 753941 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 2 0 1 4 1 0 1 GG RS OC 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 15 15 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 X X WILLIAM P AMOSS 2022965730 1776 K STREET NW 7TH FLOOR WASHINGTON DC 20006 ELENA ROSTROPOVICH PRESIDENT 5.00 X X 0 0 0 THOMAS R PICKERING CHAIRMAN 5.00 X X 0 0 0 CATHERINE MANNICK SECRETARY/TREASURER 5.00 X X 0 0 0 RAZAN AL SHATTI DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 EDWIN ASTURIAS DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 JOHN BEYRLE DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 CONSUELO DUROC-DANNER DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 MONIQUE DUROC-DANNER DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 LUBNA HUSSAIN DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 NATASHA LEBEDEVA DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 J STEPHEN MORRISON DIRECTOR - AS OF 1/21 1.00 X 0 0 0 GHASSAN MUSTAKLEM DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 KIMBERLY A NEARING DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 STANLEY PLOTKIN MD DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 JONATHAN RUSSIN DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 RAMZI H SANBAR DIRECTOR - UNTIL 1/21 1.00 X 0 0 0 YURI V USHAKOV DIRECTOR - UNTIL 5/21 1.00 X 0 0 0 WILLIAM P AMOSS EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.00 X 169342 0 17373 MERLE NILK FINANCE DIRECTOR 40.00 X 108414 0 10865 277756 0 28238 2 0 1 0 0 141584 760790 902374 SERVICE FEES 900099 314220 314220 314220 185 185 700 1819 -1119 -1119 -1119 MISCELLANEOUS 900099 3016 3016 3016 1218676 314220 0 2082 51874 51874 298122 221887 67336 8899 241894 201501 39934 459 4053 3184 856 13 8086 6417 1667 2 40828 31193 8814 821 19016 16628 2388 39678 23566 16112 59553 46904 11603 1046 32789 8905 23884 15168 4119 11049 53032 11040 41992 8675 8675 3142 734 2408 4735 4735 PROGRAM MATERIALS & SVC 117314 117314 997959 753941 232778 11240 662151 118788 571681 1221715 385697 341022 162000 37796 33426 6037 4370 1625566 1847895 30212 40653 70792 952288 1014251 1053292 1054904 X -2696 182851 574970 610140 572274 792991 1625566 1847895 220717 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 2024566 1590604 1339702 874897 902374 6732143 2024566 1590604 1339702 874897 902374 6732143 3716267 3015876 292 587 565 836 185 2465 586 3016 3602 6738210 341900 0.44760 0.54610 X SCHEDULE A, PART II, LINE 10, EXPLANATION OF OTHER INCOME: MISCELLANEOUS - 2017 AMOUNT: $ 586. 2020 AMOUNT: $ 3,016.
