| IRS990ScheduleA/FactsAndCircumstancesTestTxt | 0 | Current Year Facts and Circumstances: The World Agricultural Forum ("WAF") was established to empower agriculture to feed every man, woman and child on earth by catalyzing development of action plans that meet the world's growing need for food, fiber, fuel and water. It maintained a program of soliciting funds from private foundations, corporations and government agencies through grants and membership fees to further its purpose. The WAF was governed by a board of directors consisting of civic leaders from the St. Louis area that were responsible for operations and financial matters. An advisory board of leading figures in global agriculture set the agenda for WAF meetings. As a membership organization, dues were fixed at a level that allowed participation by a broad cross-section of the interested public and the WAF to accomplish its purpose. The activities of the WAF appealed to the common interest of the general public of having a catalyst for developing plans to provide for the worlds' growing need for food, fiber, fuel and water. |
