Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990 Page 2 Part III

Some of sifat's graduates return to their countries and make training centers or projects using what they have learned to help the poor meet their own basic needs. This past year we have added more training sessions and projects of community development in hati, nigeria, democratic republic of congo, uganda, and india. Sifat sponsors our graduates' projects, helping them with resources and monitoring their progress. We have personnel who advise them when problems arise in their projects and walk alongside them to help them overcome the obstacles. In addition to continuing to advise more than 50 projects started in past years in pakistan, liberia, bolivia, kenya, ecuador, venezuela, and cameroon, we have added a project that builds wheelchairs for the disabled in nigeria, assisted a school for rescued kidnaped children soldiers in congo for rehabilitation and training in microenterprises (cement block making, agriculture, and others). We also sponsored a school for 30 teen-age mothers and impoverished high school dropouts in uganda to learn skills to support themselves and their families such as tailoring, catering, hairdressing and baking. We also have brought clean water to a community in nigeria, sponsored a teacher in india to hold week-end workshops in churches in appropriate technologies for basic human needs, and sponsored a community development leader to assist a community in rural haiti with their agricultural co-op and program to help the refugees from the capital city fleeing from the gangs, in other african countries, we have funded or supported many sifat graduate projects, including in haiti, nigeria, honduras, and also india. Funding the nigeria water well projects to combat illnesses caused by lack of clean drinking water and providing wheelchairs for the disabled; in honduras to create biofertilizer by recycling waste and create food security by bringing local farmers together to market crops and learn crop yield appropriate technologies.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0COSTA RICA - THE PURPOSE OF SIFAT'S COSTA RICAN CAMPUS IS TO MAKE TRAINING IN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND APPROPRIATE TECHONLOGIES FOR BASIC HUMAN NEEDS AVAILABLE. OUR TARGET AUDIENCE IS CHURCH AND COMMUNITY LEADERS OF VERY POOR AREAS IN LATIN AMERICA AND BEYOND WHO CANNOT GET VISAS TO OUR TRAINING CENTER IN THE U.S. SIFAT COSTA RICA DEMONSTRATES SOLUTIONS TO BASIC HUMAN NEEDS SUCH AS MORE NUTRITIOUS FOOD, CLEAN WATER, HOUSING, HEALTH, MICRO ENTERPRISES AND MORE. WE NOT ONLY TEACH COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT USING APPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGIES AS TOOLS, BUT WE ARE DOING COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT IN THE COMMUNITY OF WHICH WE ARE A PART. WE CAN TAKE OUR STUDENTS FROM IMPOVERISHED COUNTRIES ON A WALK THROUGH OUR COSTA RICAN NEIGHBORHOOD AND INTRODUCE THEM TO COSTA RICANS WHO INCORPORATE THE PRINCIPLES WE TEACH ON THEIR TWO-TO-THREE ACRE FARMS WITH THIER BASIC NEEDS MET. THEY CAN SEE AS WELL AS HEAR OUR CLASSES, AND THEN PRACTICE THESE TECHNOLOGIES UNTIL THEY ARE EQUIPPED TO GO HOME AND TEACH THEIR OWN PEOPLE. ALSO A BIG PART IS LEARNING TO WORK TOGETHER AS A COMMUNITY FOR THE BENEFIT OF ALL.
