Through the Global Ambassadors Program, women leaders who are at a tipping point in terms of their professional, business and leadership paths (mentees) receive mentorship, training and opportunities for visibility for the work which they undertake from Global Ambassadors (mentors) who are global leaders in the business, nonprofit, government and social enterprise sectors.In 2013, Vital Voices organized the program in three countries Singapore, Brazil and Qatar. Each program engaged seven to eight mentees who received strategic support and guidance by their Global Ambassador mentors to identify action steps and to achieve professional goals. These week-long programs included facilitated one-on-one and group mentorship sessions; trainings on topics ranging from communications to strategic planning, crisis management, lobbying for change and work/life balance; and public forums to provide visibility on critical issues impeding women's economic advancement. During the Singapore program, the Public Forum panel themes included: Untapped Natural Resources: One Billion Women Rising; Women as a Driving Force for Business and Economic Growth; Breaking the Glass Ceiling: Effective Policies to Advance Women as Senior Leaders; We Did It: Women Leaders Who Made It, and How. The Global Ambassadors and mentees were also given the opportunity to explore pressing themes with the local community through a one-day site visit to The Island Foundation, a social enterprise led by mentee Heena Patel located on Bintan in the Riau Islands of Indonesia. The Island Foundation works with the subsistence coastal communities in the Riau Archipelago to help improve their income, health, education and environmental concerns as well as develop and implement sustainable community-based projects around social justice, community organizations, micro-finance and entrepreneurialism.The objective of the Public Forum in Brazil was to make the business case for empowering women as leaders. By focusing on the measurable impact of women's economic engagement and presenting a clear path for women to develop as business professionals, the forum discussions built a persuasive narrative guiding women in Brazil to economic prominence and highlighted best practices on topics including the advancement of women-owned small and medium enterprises, creating enabling environments for women entrepreneurs, integrating women-owned businesses into Global Value Chains, and the strengthening of networks among women in Brazil.Against the background of the historic "Arab Spring" developments that have been sweeping the Arab world since January 2011 and the fact that the Middle East and North Africa region, in its current economic state, is the second fastest growing region and where approximately one third (1/3) of women business owners are the sole owners of their business, the Global Ambassadors Program in Qatar focused on addressing the ongoing needs and challenges facing women business leaders in the region. Organized by the Qatari Businesswomen Association in cooperation with Interactive Business Network, the Qatar International Business Women's Forum 2013 hosted leading Gulf, Arab and international speakers, as well as wide participation from senior government officials, the business community, representatives of civil society, NGO's, and women leaders in business and other professions. The Forum had as its main theme the role of "Arab Businesswomen as Change-Makers", and addressed issues such as developing and harnessing the leadership potential of businesswomen; removing the barriers that prevent women from exercising leadership in business and social activities; growing and funding entrepreneurship and innovation among women. VVLead Fellowship Program: In 2013 Vital Voices launched a three-year fellowship program with funding from the UK government's Department for International Development. Through VVLead, Fellows working across sectors to end violence against women and forced/early marriage and/or increase women's economic empowerment participate in online and in-person interventions. These include trainings, networking opportunities and peer mentorship, all of which are based upon the results of a needs assessment that Fellows complete upon being selected for the program. In 2013, Vital Voices selected 103 Fellows, ranging in age from 20 to 81 from over 45 countries in the Global South for the inaugural class.As part of the core program, Vital Voices developed an online learning platform and organized in-person programming in India, the Netherlands and Uganda. Each in-person program engaged Fellows from across the globe to participate in facilitated activities to connect, learn and collaborate -- the three VVLead pillars. These four-day programs included Fellow-, consultant- and staff-led trainings, facilitated networking and action planning sessions; site visits; and group dialogue about critical issues facing women leaders across the globe.VV GROW Fellowship: The flagship of the VV GROW Portfolio, the VV GROW Fellowship is a one-year program focused on building the capacity, skills, and connections of women business owners of small medium enterprises (SMEs) to create actionable business plans and grow their businesses. The program is delivered online and in-person by integrating the latest business trends, global best practices, and interactive learning techniques. In 2013, the VV GROW Fellowship was piloted in Africa, the Middle East and North Africa, and the Latin America and the Caribbean regions with funding from ExxonMobil and Standard Chartered.Early in 2013, Vital Voices and a team of consultants and external experts developed a global training curriculum, which was then tailored to be delivered in sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East and North Africa, and in Latin America and the Caribbean. The curriculum included modules on Executive Financial Management, Leadership, Networking for Business Professionals, Business Planning, and Understanding Your Market. The pilot program consisted of an intensive participant selection process; online preparatory coursework; a regional, in-person, practical training; and tailored follow-on services that address the gaps outlined in participants' action plans. The 4-day on-site trainings were held in Accra, Ghana; Amman, Jordan; and Managua, Nicaragua in October and November 2013.Eighty-three (83) women business owners from 31 countries completed the pilot program. As part of the program's follow-on services, all Fellows were able to take advantage of one-on-one advising sessions with consultants on their business planning, financial management, and market strategies. Thirty (30) VV GROW Fellows also of approximately $5,000 to help them implement a piece of the business action plan they developed as part of the program. Of these, 9 received additional technical assistance to help them implement their plans. Program outcomes and impacts are being tracked through a rigorous monitoring and evaluation system, which includes baseline and 6, 12, 24, and 36 month follow-up surveys of VV GROW Fellows to assess business growth and professional development.VV GROW Mentoring: VV GROW Mentoring offers tailored business mentoring to support the growth of women-owned SMEs through access to established business leaders as mentors and to a wider network of executives and senior professionals. In a reciprocal exchange, mentors have the opportunity to hone their management styles, develop skills as advisors, and cultivate and develop greater awareness of leadership and communications skills. Vital Voices implements the VV GROW Mentoring Program in collaboration with local partners, such as local NGOs and businesswomen's associations (BWAs), to ensure relevance to the women Vital Voices serves.In 2013, the Citi Foundation and the Walmart Foundation funded program pilots in five countries: Argentina, Egypt, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Kenya. In total, 65 mentees were paired with high-level executives and businesspeople as mentors, for a six-month, one-on-one mentoring relationship. Each local partner facilitated in-person orientations during which the mentees developed concrete business objectives with their mentors. Throughout the program, the implementing partners worked closely with the mentoring pairs to make sure that they made progress toward these objectives. At the end of the program, all mentees and mentors were invited to closing ceremonies, during which participants celebrated and reflected on the progress they achieved toward their objectives throughout the six-month relationship. 878830 204369 Human Rights and Anti-TraffickingIn 2013 Human Rights programming directly reached 241 women and men engaged in the fight to end violence against women and trafficking, as well as hundreds more indirectly.Vital Voices continued our long standing partnership with the Avon Foundation for Women's Global Partnership to End Violence Against Women (GPEVAW) by awarding 5 subgrants to organizations in India, Argentina, South Africa, Brazil, and Jordan to undertake projects ranging from awareness raising to research to law enforcement training to improving services in the areas of domestic violence, sexual violence, and human trafficking. For example, the Family Guidance Awareness Center in Jordan trained 75 female and male youth on best practices in addressing gender-based violence. The trainees then participated in a 400-person gender-based violence conference. Conference participants included representatives of the Chamber of Commerce, local governments, partner NGOs and community-based organizations working in Jordan, and media representatives. The GPEVAW is a model of the holistic, multi-sector approach necessary to end violence against women and girls.With support from a grant from the State Department's Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons, Vital Voices worked with the Government of Cameroon to host 3 intensive multidisciplinary trainings in Bamenda, Douala, and Buea, Cameroon in 2013. From May 4-10, 2013, a delegation of experts organized by Vital Voices traveled to Bamenda to meet with officials, provide a human trafficking training, and establish a local Human Trafficking Task Force. The delegation met with the U.S. Ambassador, the Governor of the North West Region, and the Secretary General of the Ministry of Justice. The delegation conducted a faculty training for 4 Cameroon human trafficking experts and then conducted a two-day multi-disciplinary training for 49 participants from several government agencies, criminal courts, and civil society organizations. The delegation concluded the trip by conducting a Task Force Meeting and Training for 29 of the human trafficking training participants. Vital Voices delegations provided similar three-day trainings simultaneously in Douala and Buea from November 10-15, 2013. Each training ended with a Human Trafficking Task Force meeting and training.In partnership with Humanity United, a foundation dedicated to eradicating modern day slavery, Vital Voices was an active member of the Alliance to End Slavery and Trafficking (ATEST). In 2013, Vital Voices staff members led ATEST's Trafficking Victim's Protection Reauthorization Act (TVPRA) work. TVPRA passed overwhelmingly by 93 to 7 in the Senate in March 2013.The inaugural Global Freedom Exchange, a Vital Voices and Hilton Worldwide partnership leveraging leadership to end trafficking, provided a dynamic educational and mentoring opportunity for emerging and established women leaders who are on the forefront of global efforts to prevent and respond to child trafficking. The Global Freedom Exchange brought together a select group of 26 women NGO leaders, from 13 countries around the world, for the opportunity to participate in a two week learning and networking program. The program spanned three US metropolitan areas Washington, DC, New York City, and Dallas, Texas. Activities included opportunities to meet with government officials, to discuss best practices with NGO leaders, to provide donors with knowledge about funding needs and the best mechanisms for support, and to learn about collaborative approaches to working with local law enforcement. The goal of this program was to provide participants with specific knowledge, skills and relationships that will benefit their professional development, their respective NGOs, and the communities they serve. The program also developed an ongoing international network of activists working together to prevent and respond to the scourge of child sex trafficking throughout the world. In May 2013, Vital Voices staff assisted the American Bar Association Rule of Law Initiative with a four-day domestic violence training program for 40 criminal court judges in Beijing, China. Vice President of Human Rights at Vital Voices Cindy Dyer played a role in developing the curriculum for the training, in addition to serving as faculty during the training. In addition to its 2013 activities, Vital Voices established several programs that will undertake activities in 2014 and beyond. One such program is the Women's Leadership Circle in Qatar, which seeks to better equip women leaders to assume leadership and advocacy roles in the fight to combat human trafficking in Qatar leading up to the 2022 World Cup. Another is the Gender-Based Violence Emergency Response and Protection Initiative. The initiative will work with a consortium of partners to provide emergency assistance to victims of extreme forms of gender based violence and harmful traditional practices. Finally, Vital Voices will host a multidisciplinary human trafficking training for Ugandan judges, prosecutors, police officers, and civil society organizations in 2014, with support from a grant from the State Department's Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons.Vital Voices staff members spoke at more than a dozen conferences and events during 2013 reaching an audience of more than 500 individuals to raise awareness about international violence against women and human trafficking. 773773 106990 Women's Global Leadership NetworkBusinesswomen's Networks (BWN): For more than six years, Vital Voices has been partnering and supporting business women's associations, business women, and their respective networks in 17 countries across three regions: the Middle East and North Africa, sub-Saharan Africa, and Latin America and the Caribbean. Vital Voices connects women to organizations that provide valuable services and opportunities for growth, and ultimately engages women as full participants in the economic progress of their countries. Growing a business is not merely a function of the business owner's leadership and business skills - the environment or "ecosystem" in which it exists is critical for success. The ecosystem of support for women business owners refers to the external elements that are conducive to their Businesses' success. Stakeholders that influence the growth of women business owners include government, universities, investors, commercial banks, the private sector and other actors.In 2013, Vital Voices worked with the Businesswomen's associations to compile the report "Engendering Growth: Cultivating the Ecosystem of Support for Women Business Owners." This report is the culmination of surveys and mapping conducted with 21 businesswomen's associations in the Middle East and North Africa, sub-Saharan Africa, and Latin America and the Caribbean regions. The report explains the concept of the "ecosystem", Vital Voices' methodology for this mapping, and provides recommendations for partner businesswomen's associations to take action. The report is designed to contribute to the conversation of how to better support women SME business owners while calling attention to the fact that one organization cannot do it all. Many initiatives, programs, and organizations exist and with stronger collaboration, they could make an even bigger impact on women business owners and their businesses' growth. The report was released in 2014. The "Ready for Growth: Solutions to Increase Access to Finance for Women Business Owners in the Middle East and North Africa" report was developed in partnership with the International Finance Corporation (IFC), the Middle East and North Africa Businesswomen's Network, and Vital Voices. By surveying 431 women business owners across eight countries in the region in 2012, the Vital Voices report released in 2013 examines women business owners' demand for capital, information and training to grow their businesses. The report finds that women business owners have a strong appetite for expansion and are poised to contribute to economic growth, but require greater access to capital to grow their businesses. The report was released at an in-region IFC event and through online and social media events. Vital Voices and its partners continue to use the Ready for Growth report to encourage greater access to finance for women SME business owners in the region. In February women business leaders from the Middle East and Gulf states gathered for a panel discussion at the JW Marriott Marquis Dubai to discuss "Women as Dynamic Forces of Change". Created as a forum to empower women, the luncheon and panel discussion sparked the beginning of a longer-term strategic brand partnership between JW Marriott and Vital Voices. The Dubai Business Women Council, the leading organization of women entrepreneurs in Dubai, also partnered on this women's forum. The panel discussion was led by Kathleen Matthews, Corporate Officer and Executive Vice President, Global Communications and Public Affairs, Marriott International, Inc. (NYSE:MAR); Vital Voices President & CEO Alyse Nelson; Dubai Business Women Council President Raja Easa Al Gurg; Conde Nast Traveler Vice President & Publisher Carolyn Kremins; JW Marriott Vice President & Global Brand Manager Mitzi Gaskins; and international design icon and Urban Zen founder Donna Karan who has signature stores in the Dubai Mall. Her Urban Zen Foundation and retail brand focus on Donna's philosophy of Conscious Consumerism to not only dress, but also address wellness, preserve culture and empower women. The women leaders shared personal experiences on managing a team, mentoring other women, building a brand, and advice on overcoming challenges in the workplace. The group also broke into more intimate, table-top discussions over lunch to examine these and other issues facing women today. Table topics included "Know Who You Are: Building Your Personal and Professional Brand," "Career, Community and Personal Well-Being," and "Paying it Forward: Encouraging Others to Lead." Luncheon attendees included women from the Dubai Business Women's Council, senior Marriott women executives from the Dubai market and media. 379823 Public Engagement and Awareness 379823 9110977 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 47 0 1 67 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 X 31 31 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 AZ AR CA CT GA HI IL KS KY MA MD MI MO NH NJ NM NY OH OR PA VA WA WV X X Alyse Nelson 2028612625 1625 Massachusetts Avenue NW 300 Washington DC 20036 Susan Ann Davis Board Chair 8.00 X X 0 0 0 Dr Carol Lancaster Board Vice Chair 1.00 X X 0 0 0 V Sue Molina Board Secretary and Treasurer 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Beth Brooke-Marciniak Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Tina Brown Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Candace Browning Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Paul Charron Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Tia Cudahy Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Deborah Dingell Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Ambassador Paula Dobriansky Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Sonnie Dockser Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Samia Farouki Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Sally Field Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Mary Foerster Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Nancy Folger Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Baroness Mary Goudie Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Kate James Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Ambassador Craig Johnstone Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Marlene Malek Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Suzanne McCarron Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Judith McHale Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Donna Cochran McLarty Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Susan Ness Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Dr Karen Otazo-Hofmeister Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Dina Habib Powell Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Nancy Prager-Kamel Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Victoria Sant Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Roselyne Swig Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Kathleen Vaughan Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Diane Von Furstenberg Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Mary Yerrick Board Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Alyse Nelson President/CEO 55.00 X 204984 0 8066 Alvin Allgood COO - as of 01/07/13 45.00 X 179208 0 7581 Roberta Greene VP, Development & Engagement 45.00 X 156712 0 12731 Margaret Bergen VP, Strategic Communication 45.00 X 140851 0 10810 Cynthia Dyer VP, Human Rights 45.00 X 132960 0 14633 Sara Vandepeute VP, Finance and Administration 45.00 X 123646 0 6081 Malini Patel Senior Dir, Mid.

The outside tax preparers send the completed draft federal Form 990 tax return to Vital Voices Finance and Executive personnel. The Vice President of Finance and Administration, the President/CEO, and the Chief Operating Officer review the Form 990 for accuracy. Then, the federal Form 990 is disseminated to the Finance and Audit Committees. Once these Committees have reviewed and provided any comments or edits, the federal Form 990 is disseminated to the Board of Directors to provide any comments. If there are any resulting changes, the final federal Form 990 is re-circulated before the final filing is made. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c Board members file a conflict of interest statement on an annual basis, which is filed with the Chairman of the Board indicating whether there are any potential conflicts of interest that might be expected to occur within the following year. Any such potential conflicts will be reported to the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors. The Executive Committee shall decide whether the Board member with such potential conflict of interest shall be required either to divest such interest or to resign from the Board of Directors. All employees sign an Employment Manual and Policies Acknowledgement Form, which includes agreeing to abide by Vital Voices' employee Conflict of Interest Policy. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 Vital Voices periodically engages (approx every 3 to 4 years) a third party consultant to perform a salary survey supported by research of current market data for comparable position levels within the industry. This survey is then used to make any updates to the existing organizational career (position) levels and salary ranges. A committee comprised of Board members and senior management engages in this process. As part of Vital Voices' fiscal year budget process, a salary budget is developed by management with any reasonable merit increase assumptions. The fiscal year budget is proposed to the Finance Committee and then the Executive Committee and full Board of Directors for approval. Any key employee salaries are determined based on the specific criteria and requirements for the position and within the range determined by the aforementioned process. The CEO, or as delegated by the CEO, the Chief Operating Officer, approves all salaries of Vital Voices. Any annual increases are reviewed globally across Vital Voices and set by the CEO and COO based on a yearly review process. The CEO's salary is set annually by a committee of the Board of Directors as part of a yearly review process. Upon hire, the Chief Operating Officer's salary is set by the CEO with the approval of Board Officers.

Form 990, Part III, Line 4a: Global Leadership Awards Honoree Program: Each year, Vital Voices hosts the Global Leadership Awards, honoring unsung heroes and courageous leaders working to strengthen democracy, increase economic opportunity and protect human rights in communities around the world. In 2013, Vital Voices honored seven such leaders at an evening program attended by over 2,000 guests. In addition to recognizing these leaders at the event, Vital Voices hosted a week-long Honoree Program in Washington, DC focused on supporting the honorees to build their capacity, credibility and connections. Throughout the seven-day program, Vital Voices introduced the seven Honorees to key stakeholders and facilitated individualized opportunities to help develop new connections and strengthen their networks of support. Further, the Honorees participated in moderated public discussions to showcase their work; engaged in training with the Vital Voices Strategic Communications team on topics including public speaking skills, on-camera communication techniques, messaging, speech-writing and social networking; and honed their leadership and mentorship skills through work with 50 emerging young women leaders participating in the ANNpower Initiative. Finally the work of each Honoree was featured using film, photography and social media platforms to raise their respective public profiles and build awareness and visibility for the leaders and their work. Fortune/State Mentoring Program: Vital Voices, through the support of U.S. Department of State and in partnership with the FORTUNE Most Powerful Women's Summit, gathered 27 emerging leaders from 20 countries from across the globe to come to the United States for a month long mentorship with top American businesswomen as well as intensive leadership and communications training in Washington, DC and New York City. Vital Voices prepared mentors and mentees for the mentorship experience, provided guidance and served as a resource for successful mentoring models, developed and facilitated both the leadership trainings and meetings with American women leaders in Washington, DC as well as the debrief and communications/media training in New York. In October, Vital Voices organized the Fortune/U.S. State Department Global Women's Mentoring Partnership Alumnae Program in Johannesburg, South Africa, a small in person gathering designed to increase the capacity of participating alumnae, equip them with new contacts and strengthen the network of women leaders in their country. Vital Voices also maintains the alumnae network through communication, resources, further participation in Vital Voices programs and connects them with other leaders in the Vital Voices Network. Vital Voices has also deepened ties with former program participants, helping 2012 alumnae organize their own mentoring programs, providing them with grant opportunities, and further training several of them through regional and global programs. ANNpower Vital Voices Initiative: Vital Voices, in partnership with ANN INC., selected fifty young women from across the U.S. to participate in a training and mentorship program held in Washington, DC for three days. Selected participants, who are rising juniors and seniors in high school, worked together to develop community projects and were advised by established women leaders from across the world. Vital Voices managed the recruitment and application process, implemented the leadership training curriculum and encouraged ongoing mentoring relationships and peer connections amongst the group. After undergoing leadership training, participants were invited to apply for small grants to implement projects that positively impact their communities. Twenty grants supported projects ranging from promoting swim safety in high risk drowning communities, to promoting sustainability through art, to encouraging girls to enter the fields of science, technology, and math. Vital Voices oversaw the application and grant review process, and worked closely with grant recipients to implement their community projects. Additionally, all ANNpower alumnae were eligible to apply for the ANNpower Volunteer Mentorship program, an online mentoring program that connects ANNpower Fellows with ANN INC associates in mentoring relationships. Fifty ANNpower Fellows participated in the ten month long program, during which Vital Voices developed and released mentoring curriculum to guide mentees and mentors. In December, Vital Voices selected six ANNpower Fellows to participate in an international trip to Burma. During the program Fellows participated in the inaugural Women's Forum for the Economy and Society in Burma, and then traveled to Inle Lake to learn from a Vital Voices Global Leadership Network member about Burmese heritage and the role of women in Burmese society. Vital Voices continues to engage Fellows through online communications, social media and other relevant opportunities. Supporting Public Advocacy Regional Competitiveness (SPARC): In 2013, Vital Voices conducted the SPARC program, the second year of a 4-year economic advocacy program. The SPARC program works with Vital Voices' businesswomen association partners on advocacy for an enabling economic environment for women. In 2013, Vital Voices provided expert consultations, advocacy capacity-building support, and financial support to help qualified Africa Businesswomen's Network partners strengthen advocacy skills and design robust advocacy campaigns.
