| Desc | USAID Commercial Horticulture & Agriculture & Marketing Program, AfghanistanThe Commercial, Agricultural & Marketing Program (CHAMP) began in February 2010 and will continue through 2019, $45 million dollar activity that will reduce poverty among rural Afghan farmers by assisting them to shift from relatively low-value annual crops, such as wheat, to relatively high-value perennial crops, such as almonds, grapes and pomegranates. A marketing program will support the increased production by linking producers to merchants in a system that rewards farmers and merchants for higher quality production with higher prices and profits; working with farmers to improve quality and with traders to improve harvesting, packing, cooling, shipping and marketing methods. To insure that women specifically benefit, and to encourage equal opportunities for women, CHAMP is implementing a pilot women's program, focusing on home garden and poultry rearing. CHAMP is implementing programs in 16 provinces in the Eastern, South Eastern, and Southern and Central regions of Afghanistan. | Desc |

| Part X, Line 2: | Roots of Peace is exempt from taxation under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3) and California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 23701d. Generally accepted accounting principles provide accounting and disclosure guidance about positions taken by an organization in its tax returns that might be uncertain. Management has considered its tax positions and believes that all of the positions taken by the Association in its federal and state exempt organization tax returns are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. Roots of Peace's returns are subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities, generally for three and four years, respectively, after they are filed. |
