IRS990ScheduleF/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0FUNDS GRANTED TO THE SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA REGION (THE REGION) BY ORPHANS AFRICA (THE ORGANIZATION) ARE APPROVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO ACCOMPLISH THE ORGANIZATION'S MISSION OF EDUCATING ORPHANS IN AFRICA. THE FUNDS ARE SENT DIRECTLY TO A NON-GOVERNMENTAL NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION (THE NGO) IN TANZANIA. THE NGO USES THE FUNDS TO PAY FOR THE PROGRAM SERVICE COSTS, SUCH AS EDUCATION, FOOD, SUPPLIES, INSURANCE, MAINTENANCE, CONSTRUCTION, CIVIL ENGINEERING, AND MANAGEMENT FEES. THE ORGANIZATION SENDS A SPREADSHEET TO THE NGO ON A MONTHLY BASIS WHICH SHOWS SPECIFICALLY HOW THE FUNDS ARE TO BE ALLOCATED BETWEEN PROJECTS. THE NGO PROVIDES THE ORGANIZATION WITH RECEIPTS FOR THE EXPENSES AS REQUESTED. NO CREDIT CARDS ARE USED IN THE OPERATIONS BY THE NGO, AS THE TANZANIAN ECONOMY IS CASH-BASED. THE PRESIDENT AND TREASURER (VOLUNTEERS) OF THE ORGANIZATION MONITOR THE USE OF THE ALLOCATED FUNDS THROUGH MONTHLY REPORTS PROVIDED BY THE NGO. IN ADDITION, BOARD MEMBERS AND SOMETIMES ADDITIONAL VOLUNTEERS WILL GO EACH YEAR TO THE REGION AND VISIT ALL OF THE PROJECT SITES FOR FIELD INVESTIGATIONS. MANY PICTURES AND VIDEOS ARE TAKEN OF THE PROJECTS. PEOPLE ARE INTERVIEWED, AND RECEIPTS ARE REVIEWED. THESE MEMBERS RETURN TO THE UNITED STATES AND WRITE A REPORT TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE ORGANIZATION. THE TRAVEL EXPENSES FOR THESE TRIPS ARE NOT PAID BY THE ORGANIZATION, BUT BY THE VOLUNTEERS THEMSELVES. MUCH OF THIS INFORMATION IS MADE PUBLICLY AVAILABLE ON OUR WEBSITE, NEWSLETTERS, SOCIAL MEDIA, PRESENTATIONS, FUNDRAISERS, AND DIRECT COMMUNICATION WITH BOARD MEMBERS. THE ORGANIZATION DOES NOT MAINTAIN OFFICES IN THE REGION. THE NGO SERVES AS AN AGENT FOR THE ORGANIZATION AND MANAGES THE OPERATIONS AND PROJECTS IN THE REGION.
