| Desc | This year Solar Cookers International (SCI) led and linked a global solar cooking movement with partners who promote solar thermal technologies for cooking and making water safe to drink, particularly in the worlds poorest regions. Solar cooking improves human health by reducing the ill effects of cooking fires. With solar cooking air pollution is reduced, debilitating or fatal burns decrease, and both waterborne diseases and respiratory illnesses decline. Families living in vulnerable environments around the world, where solar energy is plentiful, access SCI's extensive network of partners and information. Solar cooking is a brilliant solution for women and families wanting to break the cycle of poverty, improve their health, their environment, and their quality of life. SCIs monitoring and evaluation work revealed this year that since 1990, more than 3.1 million solar cookers impacted more than 11 million people worldwide. As a result, SCI estimates that CO2 emissions were reduced by 23 million tonnes the beneficial equivalent of planting 604 million trees. Global data analyzed by SCI suggests that since 1990, more than 4 billion meals have been prepared in solar cookers, using free solar energy and reducing emissions. Solar Cookers International is the worlds premier organization catalyzing community members in a worldwide movement for sustainable cooking. SCI links more than 500 network members in 133 countries, catalyzing conversations and learning. SCI convenes the global network regularly, cultivating a partnership relationship among participants, and working with NGOs and nation leaders at the United Nations to promote solar cooking as an important solution to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. As cooking is a task that falls largely on the shoulders of women and girls worldwide, solar cooking empowers women globally. As the curator of the worlds largest solar cooking resource, and the objective evaluator of solar cooker performance, SCI has a long-term strategy to respond to the accelerating global demand for solar-thermal cooking technologies. Soon to celebrate 30 years of caring about people and the environment, SCI looks to a future where solar thermal cooking is a familiar, daily activity for people everywhere who need energy for cooking. | Desc |

| Desc | Field projects* Tanzania * SCI empowered 30 women in Tanzania with: * box cookers * retained heat cookers * pasteurization indicators * training * follow up support * This project is a pilot study for SCIs Solar Cooking Adoption and Impact Survey, which measures the immense fuel and financial savings that solar cooks encounter. * In the first month alone: * The women saved $336 (35% of their fuel expenses) * 233 people are directly benefiting (27% of which are children) * 100% of these women would recommend solar cooking to a friend. * On average, each woman saved more than 2 bundles of firewood per week with solar cooking* Nepal * SCI has long been connected with the people of Nepal, whose determination and resilience after the earthquake are inspiring. SCIs partner in Nepal, FoST, is a leader in training and spreading solar cooking information in the Kathmandu Valley. * Project participants in Nepal: * single women * women leaders * schools * orphanages * a community hospital * a Special Education and Rehabilitation Center for Disabled Children * the Down Syndrome Society * Received: * 30 parabolic cookers * 7 solar dryers * 2-day training on solar cooker building and use * FoST also performed 5 school and university demonstrations of solar cooking and sustainable technologies.* Kenya * Friends of the Old * 160 solar cookers and pots were distributed to vulnerable community members in the Lower Nyakach area. Training and follow up support were also provided. * Great Hope Orphanage * Orphans in Kenya now eat healthy solar cooked foods, thanks to a trainer SCI located, and SCI donors whose gifts paid for that trainer to teach solar cooking skills to orphanage staff members. Great Hope Orphanage is located in Nairobi, Kenya, and had 4 solar cookers, but their current staff did not know how to use them. SCI used its network to find and hire a solar cook trainer. Now the 86 students and 3 staff enjoy solar cooked lunches and save up to 50% of their ongoing fuel expenses. The training was great! said Anne Waweru, Great Hope Orphanage staff. Our cooks liked it and they are now excited about using the solar cookers. * SCI amplified donors impact, connecting its network to empower global partners to spread solar cooking. SCI connected the Canadian organization, CanAssist, with Kenyan solar cooking expert and longtime project partner, Dinah Chienjo, to educate other Kenyan villagers about solar cooking. This helped Ms. Chienjo generate income and market her skill as a solar cook and trainer. | Desc |

| Desc | Advocacy* United Nations * Solar cooking solves key energy issues and helps to achieve all 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). * SCI highlighted the need for solar cooking and safe water in 3 presentations at the 60th Commission on the Status of Women (CSW 60) at the United Nations in New York. * In its oral and written statements for CSW 60, SCI emphasized how solar cooking improves human health, soil quality, and family economies; reduces deforestation; and is a critical technology that can assist all people, particularly those in greatest need. * U.S. Energy Information Administration * SCI informed the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) within the Department of Energy about ways solar cooking is used in homes. This information will be an important resource for the Residential Energy Consumption Survey (RECS) team, and this survey is critical for evaluating future energy needs and setting standards for building efficiency and design. | Desc |

| Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund. | To support the future charitable goals of solar cookers international. |
| Part X : FIN48 Footnote | SCI is exempt from income taxes under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 501(c)(3) and Section 23701(d) of the California Revenue and Taxation Code, and is considered a publicly supported organization. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been included in the accompanying financial statements.SCI has accounted for uncertainty of income taxes as required by the Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. SCI uses a comprehensive model for recognizing, and measuring, presenting and disclosing in the financial statements tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is "more likely than not" that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the "more likely than not" test, no tax benefit is recorded. The effect of applying this model and the resulting identification of uncertain tax positions, if any, were not considered significant for financial reporting purposes. SCI is no longer subject to income tax examinations by federal authorities for years ending on or before June 30, 2013, and by state authorities for years ending on or before June 30, 2012. |
