("FRIENDS") MONITORS THE USE OF GRANT FUNDS ISSUED TO RAMANA'S GARDEN INDIA BY REVIEWING CERTIFIED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE NON-PROFIT IN INDIA, AND BY COMPARING THE GRANT FUNDS SENT TO INDIA WITH THE NUMBER OF CHILDREN AND STAFF SUPPORTED TO ENSURE THEY ARE REASONABLE. THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, SCOTT ATTAWAY, VICE PRESIDENT AND GENERAL COUNSEL, IS IN REGULAR CONTACT WITH THE MANAGERS OF RAMANA'S GARDEN VIA WHATSAPP AND EMAIL. RAMANA'S GARDEN ALSO HAS A REGULAR SOCIAL MEDIA PRESENCE WITH NUMEROUS PHOTOS AND VIDEOS OF RAMANA'S KIDS POSTED FOR ALL TO SEE. IN THE PAST, OTHER BOARD MEMBERS OF FRIENDS HAVE VISITED RAMANA'S GARDEN AND REPORTED BACK TO THE BOARD THAT OPERATIONS THERE ARE HIGHLY EFFECTIVE AS MR. ATTAWAY ALSO OBSERVED IN MARCH 2023. IN ALL EVENTS, THESE FINANCIAL STATEMENT REVIEWS, REGULAR CONTACT THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, SITE VISITS, AND SOCIAL MEDIA REVIEWS HAVE CONFIRMED THAT THE FUNDS ARE BEING PUT TO THEIR PROPER AND DESIGNATED USE TO SUPPORT THE CHILDREN'S HOUSING, EDUCATION, AND MEDICAL CARE.
