RVF IS A NON-POLITICAL, NON-PARTISAN CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION. 0 0 830064 16952 299900 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 FOR CHILDREN 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 AND HEPATITIS B. EACH OF THESE COMPLETED VACCINATION PROGRAMS IS NOW BEING FULLY SUSTAINED WITH LOCAL RESOURCES. IN 2018, THE RVF COMPLETED A MAJOR 3-YEAR PROGRAM TO ASSIST THE PALESTINIAN MINISTRY OF HEALTH TO INTRODUCE THE ROTAVIRUS VACCINE FOR ALL INFANTS IN GAZA AND THE WEST BANK - APPROXIMATELY 135,000 BABIES ANNUALLY. 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. THIS PROGRAM IS NOW COMPLETELY FINANCED 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! IN PARTNERSHIP WITH PATH AND WITH FINANCING FROM THE BMGF RVF COMPLETED A HEALTH ECONOMICS STUDY, WHICH SHOWED THE ECONOMIC BENEFITS OF THE USE OF THE ROTAVIRUS VACCINE ROTAVAC TO THE MOH. AT A GLOBAL FORUM ON ROTAVIRUS IN SO. AFRICA, RVF PRESENTED ITS RESEARCH ON THE DRAMATIC IMPACT OF ROTAVIRUS VACCINE ON THE DISEASE BURDEN IN PALESTINE. IN RUSSIA, KAZAKHSTAN AND BULGARIA, RVF COMPLETED THE FIRST PHASE OF A GROUND-BREAKING STUDY OF PNEUMOCOCCAL DISEASE IN CHILDREN <5 YEARS OF AGE TO ASSESS THE IMPACT OF THE INTRODUCTION OF THE PNEUMOCOCCAL CONJUGATE VACCINE (PCV) ON THE COMPOSITION OF PNEUMOCOCCAL STRAINS IN CIRCULATION. 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. RVF BEGAN A SECOND PHASE OF THIS RESEARCH AT THE END OF 2019 WITH ADDITIONAL STUDY SITES WITHIN RUSSIA AND ADDING THE COUNTRIES OF UZBEKISTAN AND BELARUS. 830064 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 X 2 0 1 4 1 0 1 GG RS AJ OC 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 16 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 JOHN BEYRLE DIRECTOR 5.00 X 0 0 0 JOSEPH A CARI JR 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 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 1.00 X 0 0 0 YURI V USHAKOV DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 RUSS ZAJTCHUK MD DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 WILLIAM P AMOSS EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.00 X 156966 0 17182 MERLE NILK FINANCE DIRECTOR 40.00 X 100490 0 9166 257456 0 26348 2 0 1 0 0 222 1339480 1339702 SERVICE FEES 900099 299900 299900 299900 565 565 MISCELLANEOUS 900099 1482 1482 1482 1641649 299900 0 2047 16952 16952 280282 253819 20279 6184 233378 221777 11446 155 3369 3369 6592 6592 41398 41398 45871 16025 29846 27539 20155 7384 61100 57600 3500 31164 13057 18107 13320 13320 61459 41697 19762 79624 40211 39413 3033 3033 6064 5670 394 4725 4725 PROGRAM MATERIALS & SVC 143101 143101 1058971 830064 222568 6339 278754 210940 150580 570994 0 333330 2344 0 57834 51574 11816 6260 443494 1121524 34300 34343 193558 288867 227858 323210 X 38775 210504 176861 587810 215636 798314 443494 1121524 582678 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 699533 1909250 2024566 1590604 1339702 7563655 699533 1909250 2024566 1590604 1339702 7563655 3170510 4393145 32 292 587 565 1476 586 586 7565717 299900 0.58070 0.56430 X SCHEDULE A, PART II, LINE 10, EXPLANATION OF OTHER INCOME: MISCELLANEOUS - 2014 AMOUNT: $ 0. 2015 AMOUNT: $ 0. 2016 AMOUNT: $ 0. 2017 AMOUNT: $ 586.
