FROM OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Dear Friends, We are also building new platforms to engage youth and emerging philanthropists in our journey – to prepare AIF for the long term with a strong pipeline of future leaders committed to carrying forward our values and our dedication to improving lives and expanding opportunities for individuals and communities across India.
Ensuring a strong start to life for vulnerable infants, expanding opportunities for disadvantaged groups through education and training, and developing the next generation of changemakers – these are the hallmarks of our commitment to improving lives. In every success, no matter how small, we are reminded of the power of connection and the role we play in making those connections – between those committed to building a better India, our teams on the ground equally dedicated to realizing that vision, and the countless individuals across India whose lives we are impacting by expanding opportunities for them. Our work has always been guided by the values of democracy, equity, and partnership, and our investment in a new management team in 2012 is a testament to our commitment to strengthening those values and not just growing fast, but growing smart. We believe that these investments will result in a stronger and more capable organization.
Whether you’ve been a friend of AIF since the beginning or are joining us today, we know you share our values and commitment to improving lives. Your support is critical to our continued growth and success as we seek out new horizons, create new innovative platforms, replicate our success across the country, share our knowledge with civil society, partner with state governments to scale our work, and advocate for policy change to make India a healthier, better educated, and more equitable country.
Our ongoing commitment to innovation and impact is reflected through the strengthening of longtime partnerships across India and in many new partnerships forged in the past year. In the coming year, this commitment will be reflected not just by identifying and seizing opportunities for growth – but by creating them. As our portfolio evolves, we will ensure that any exit strategies will be graceful and enable sustainability.

FROM OUR CEO & INDIA COUNTRY DIRECTOR
Dear Friends, 1. Rethinking, reengineering, and scaling our programs with an increased emphasis on developing and adopting innovative technological solutions 2.Launching fundraising efforts in India – a significant and exciting shift from the past 12 years 3. Strengthening our community and building the next generation of AIF ambassadors – formally launching a Clinton Fellowship Alumni Engagement platform and creating new platforms for young Americans to contribute meaningfully to AIF through volunteer service and philanthropy 4. Inspiring a culture of learning within AIF and among our partners through a commitment to knowledge sharing and capacity building
In the first year of our tenure with AIF, we have been consistently inspired and exhilarated. We have experienced the impact of our work across India and the people who make our programs possible there and across the US. We want to thank you for giving us your wholehearted support. AIF is focused on disrupting poverty in India. We intervene through programs in education, livelihood, public health and leadership. Since its founding, AIF has been committed to the pillars of collective, strategic, leveraged, and secular philanthropy. We pool resources to invest in large-scale projects in India, invest in scalable and replicable solutions so that they achieve the most impact possible, leverage those investments through co-funding models to multiply that impact, and always partner with organizations that serve inclusively. This AIF Advantage has enabled us to raise over $84 million over the past 12 years to invest in projects for sustainable development, partnering with 227 reliable local NGOs, and providing a ladder of opportunity to 1.9 million disadvantaged people across 22 states of India. Through advocacy efforts and partnerships, AIF has also been able to leverage our funds and resources by a ratio of more than 6.5 to 1, enabling us to influence key policy decisions and effect real mindset changes in India, mobilizing and empowering local communities.
Your help is vital to reaching our goal of improving the lives of five million marginalized Indians by 2018. So please help us spread the word of the critical work AIF is doing. Consider holding fundraisers in your community or workplace. Donate your birthday to help a child in need, or an anniversary to help educate India’s youth. With your help, we can create meaningful and sustainable progress, and bring hope and opportunity to India’s poor. Yours,
We are privileged to have joined the AIF journey at this exciting and crucial stage of our growth – and plan to accelerate our impact by scaling up our programs significantly to reach 5 million beneficiaries in 5 years by 2018. This will involve:

LEARNING AND MIGRATION PROGRAM (LAMP)
IMPACT 2012-2013
universalizing quality education for migrant communities
Since 2003, AIF has provided 288,276 migrant children across India with access to quality education for an otherwise neglected population through its Learning and Migration Program (LAMP). Addressing fundamental learning deficits in early education through Learning Enrichment classes and bridge schools, LAMP provides a pathway for children to re-enter government schools at age-appropriate levels. LAMP began by managing seasonal hostels for children to stay in school while their parents migrated for work, and has since expanded to a comprehensive suite of educational interventions that together create a full spectrum of quality education opportunities.
While LAMP’s focus has created meaningful impact for migrant children and their communities, children living in remote, isolated areas all over India lack similar access. A significant area of LAMP’s recent focus has been on advocating for all children, by raising awareness and promoting discussion over the Right to Education Act, ensuring that parents, teachers, and whole communities are equipped with the knowledge to support and activate universal education. Through LAMP, AIF facilitates the formation and effective implementation of School Management Committees, to create School Development Plans and to empower parents, teachers, government officials, and local Panchayat members (community leaders) to take charge of their children’s education.
YEAR IN REVIEW Program Expansion • Developed multi-sector partnership with the Government of Gujarat and Tata Chemicals Limited to support the organization and management of 84 new seasonal hostels in Gujarat for migrant children, enabling 2,500 children to stay in school Program Sustainability • Expanded LAMP’s Learning Enrichment classes to five new migration-prone geographies in Gujarat, through new partnerships with the Behavioural Science Centre, the Aga Khan Rural Support Programme, Swadeep, and Urjaghar
-8-
• Trained government school teachers in LAMP Learning Enrichment techniques to address the root causes of learning deficits in migrant children, and institutionalize educational best practices in government schools New Initiatives • Organized innovative theater workshops for youth development in Delhi, Bihar and Odisha, and presented a series of performances reaching an audience of over 24,000 people
“My dad is proud that I’m in school.” Komal Kumari, a bright and compassionate fifth grader studying with LAMP in Patna, Bihar, comes from one of thousands of families that are uprooted regularly in search of work. As a young child, Komal would accompany her mother in sweeping the front steps of establishments – a practice that developed out of a need for work that does not exist – often referred to as ‘disguised unemployment’. Komal’s younger brother is in school, but her two older sisters also sweep steps to bring the family income. Through LAMP’s Learning Enrichment classes, Komal is quickly catching up to her age group’s learning level in reading comprehension and mathematics. She benefits from LAMP’s hands-on teaching style, and enjoys the group activities and games used in classes. Although her favorite subject is Hindi, Komal would like to become a doctor when she grows up. When asked why, Komal selflessly replies that she would like to be able to help people improve their health without charging them fees – her income would only come from donations. Although there is still some financial uncertainty at home, Komal reports that her parents are happy that she is able to study. When asked if they tell her to work instead, she responds, “No, in fact, my dad is proud that I’m in school.”

DIGITAL EQUALIZER
IMPACT 2012-2013
transforming public schools through technology
Since 2002, Digital Equalizer has trained over 29,383 teachers and 870,000 children in 2,541 schools across India through technology, to transform classrooms into vital places to teach and to learn. Designed to help India prepare its youth for the 21st century global economy through both access and quality educational reform, the Digital Equalizer approach introduces computer-aided learning through project-based methodologies that incorporate technology into classroom pedagogy, thereby creating cultures of collaboration and discovery in classrooms within the government school system of India.
Over the years, Digital Equalizer has developed and tested new innovative models in order to both stay ahead of emerging technology trends and ensure the greatest educational impact, including Dell Connected Classrooms, which provide laptops for use in classrooms, and Centers of Excellence offering additional technology resources and training for teachers. The program has also expanded from its traditional focus on grades 6-10 to youth across K-12 through partnership with District Institutes for Education and Training (DIETs), government teacher training centers.
YEAR IN REVIEW Program Expansion • Expanded to 100 new schools in Haryana, 72 new schools in Delhi, and 68 new schools in Tamil Nadu New Initiatives District Institutes for Education and Training (DIET) • Trained teachers, coordinators, and student teachers at new District Institutes for Education and Training (DIETs) in Punjab, Odisha, Delhi, and Tamil Nadu
- 10 -
• Launched the DIET School Connect Project in Delhi and Sirsa, Haryana, which trains student teachers in informations communications technology (ICT) EduKit • Created and disseminated EduKits across 371 schools in Odisha, Punjab, and Tamil Nadu • Generated uptake by Punjab State Education Department, disseminated to the education community through the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan website (www.ssa.nic.in) and distributed to non-participating schools in the region
“Now I have more fun in school.” 13-year old Shivam Chaddha was born without sight. His father, a general store manager, and his mother, a homemaker, always wanted Shivam to attend a school that would be sensitive to his unique needs. At Amarjyoti Charitable Trust, an inclusive school for differently abled students, Shivam learned with children from various backgrounds, but his visual impairment still required personalized attention, and he would often fall behind his classmates. When the Digital Equalizer came to his school, it changed the way that Shivam learns. With the help of a speech enabling software called ‘JAWS’, Shivam is now able to listen to his lessons on the computer at his own pace. “I can understand math and science better now,” Shivam says. “Now I have more fun in school.” Shivam has gained basic computer literacy skills, and wants to learn how to use a camera as well. Shivam is very proud of his new technological skills, and plans to teach his parents next.

MARKET ALIGNED SKILLS TRAINING (MAST) skills development for at-risk youth
IMPACT 2012-2013
Working to address the imbalance between the millions of youth in search of work who lack the education or basic skills required for skilled labor, the Market Aligned Skills Training (MAST) program provides unemployed, economically disadvantaged youth with the knowledge and skills needed for employment in India’s high-growth formal sector job industries. MAST not only meets the growing demands of the diversifying local economies across
the country, it harnesses India’s burgeoning youth population to become powerful engines of the economy. This year, AIF achieved a significant milestone in the program in reaching more than 100,000 youth. Since the program’s launch in 2007, MAST has trained over 105,741 young Indians at 147 centers across 20 states with a job placement rate of 75% – creating some 78,204 jobs.
YEAR IN REVIEW On-the-Job Training • Established employer training rooms in MAST Centers to provide a simulated “on-the-job” training experience for youth participants. Companies such as HONDA, Schneider, Vodaphone, and Shree Rajasthan Syntex Ltd. have set up training areas. The increased participation of employers in the training process has especially benefitted visually impaired candidates, who are now able to receive virtual on-the-job training through voice recognition technology through the involvement of MAST partners like the National Association of Blind Women
- 12 -
Focus on High-Risk Slum Youth • Developed partnership with Delhi Police and NGO We The People to train high-risk youth in marketable skills. The police provide training facilities and access to youth from slum communities through the Yuva initiative, which aims to reduce crime in the neighborhood by giving unemployed youth a responsible path to success through a variety of community-based activities Domestic Workers • Forged a partnership with NGO Maitri in Guwahati, Assam, to begin a targeted outreach program providing vocational training and employment opportunities for domestic workers, working to formalize the profession and thereby their employee rights
“Since I’ve gotten a job... my mindset has changed.” Born hearing and speech impaired, Gopi Chandra has been systematically denied educational opportunities since childhood. Attending a school with limited resources for disabled students and unable to find a college suitable to support his disability, he was unable to progress beyond a very basic level of education, let alone find a job. Dependent on his parents, Gopi decided to attend MAST courses in practical skills like car repair as well as computer skills. MAST’s disability initiative offered Gopi both the skills and the job placement in automotive repair at Gabriel, a provider of motorcycle parts. He has been there for five months, and says that not only are his coworkers friendly and respectful, but one of them also learned sign language in order to bridge their communication gap. “Since I’ve gotten a job here, my mindset has changed,” Gopi signs to his interpreter.

RICKSHAW SANGH
IMPACT 2012-2013
poverty alleviation through microfinance
The Rickshaw Sangh targets one of India’s most overlooked populations – the estimated eight million rickshaw operators – and provides access to credit alongside a suite of services and benefits to help rickshaw drivers break cycles of poverty by owning their own vehicles. In this informal industry, drivers are subject to prohibitive vehicle rental rates as well as social stigma and harassment. Rickshaw Sangh is working to formalize an industry paradigm by mainstreaming rickshaw operators into the financial system, while providing foundational benefits like ID cards, licenses, permits, insurance, and uniforms. The program provides the critical access
to credit by organizing drivers into small joint-liability groups and by providing banks with a First Loss Default Guarantee (FLDG). Since the program’s launch in 2006, Rickshaw Sangh has reached 46,284 rickshaw drivers and their families. The program’s focus on joint spousal ownership – where some 70% of the program’s rickshaws are jointly owned – provides a path to financial security not only for drivers, but their spouses and families as well.
YEAR IN REVIEW Program Expansion • Expanded to the states of Punjab and Odisha, through partnerships with Union Bank of India and Yes Bank New Initiative – “Rickshaw On Call” • In partnership with Patiala Foundation, launched a community call center in Punjab, a formal transit request system that has helped increase local drivers’ income by 30%
- 14 -
Thought Leadership – “Financial Inclusion of Urban Poor” • Held Annual National Knowledge Seminar highlighted by a keynote speech from Dr. K.C. Chakrabarty, Deputy Governor of the Reserve Bank of India, addressing the urban poor’s participation in the financial system, banking system reforms, and microcredit sector analysis
“The income from the rickshaw means having food everyday... being able to educate our kids, establish a store, save money.” Kanti Devi and her husband live in Muzaffarpur, Bihar, with their two children. Kanti’s husband was a painter, and their income was meager and unstable. By joining a Rickshaw Sangh collective, Kanti and her husband were able to access credit and own their own rickshaw, giving them financial stability. With no rental rates to pay for the vehicle, all the profit goes directly to the family’s needs. To supplement their income, Kanti’s family also bought a stall, where Kanti makes and sells tea. Kanti, who takes a practical approach to their financial situation, adds that the ability to own their own assets – the rickshaw and the stall – will also help them save for when they are older, and for their children. “The income from the rickshaw means having food every day,” says Kanti. “Being able to educate our kids, establish a store, save money…there have been a lot of benefits from Rickshaw Sangh.”

WILLIAM J. CLINTON FELLOWSHIP FOR SERVICE IN INDIA
IMPACT 2012-2013
building the next generation of global leaders
Since its founding, AIF has been invested in developing the next generation of leaders committed to creating and sustaining impactful change in India while building a lasting bridge between the US and India. The William J. Clinton Fellowship for Service in India is an immersive experience for young professionals to gain knowledge in development and learn real-world skills on the ground. Working in partnership with NGOs and social enterprises across the country in issues as diverse as education, public health, youth development, human rights and advocacy, Clinton Fellows help build the capacity of under-resourced NGOs while learning from one another, developing leadership skills, a deeper understanding of India, and a commitment to citizen service.
To deepen the relationship between the two countries, the Fellowship has included Indian citizens alongside its American counterparts since 2011. The Fellowship Class of 2012-13 comprised 36 young professionals in service at 29 partner organizations in 13 states of India. To date, 297 Fellows have served in more than 137 NGOs and social enterprises. AIF is also taking an active role in fostering a deeper continuing relationship with alumni of the program, to further connect the Fellows’ rich experience and knowledge to the broader spectrum of development work in India while strengthening a culture of service in both countries.
CLASS OF 2012-13 HIGHLIGHTS • Development and implementation of a school-based health program for primary school children in rural Darjeeling • Conducting of a survey to determine “Ward Quality Score” to objectively measure the quality of infrastructure and public services in all 198 wards of Bangalore • Organization of a comprehensive survey across nine NGOS to map the aspirations, hopes, and dreams of youth as they relate to their education and career goals
- 16 -
• Creation of a training manual for community health workers to reduce maternal morbidity through identification and treatment of health issues • Advocacy for victims of human rights abuses at the state, national, and international levels • Meeting with President Clinton in Mumbai, an inspirational experience for 10 Fellows
“My 10 months in India through AIF will have a lasting impact on my entire career.” Gayatri Jane Eassey had been working in education and economic development for the past decade before embarking upon AIF’s Clinton Fellowship, where she served with the Office of the Advisor to the Prime Minister for Skills Development to help build the infrastructure needed to skill 500 million Indians by 2022 and work with 17 Indian Ministries. “The AIF Fellowship provided the ideal platform for me to launch from a local to a global context for my work,” remarks Gayatri. She brought with her the wholehearted belief that enabling access to education and skills training can transform the lives of adolescents – that connecting people to jobs allows them to be their own agents for personal change, leading to self-sufficiency and the privilege of choices in life. Working directly with the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), Gayatri conducted a national review of India’s community colleges – a disconnected network of a few hundred colleges servicing a small population – to explore ways for the government to leverage the network and enhance the infrastructure for skills development. Her research report was so informative that the MHRD now uses it to inform their operations. “My 10 months in India through AIF will have a lasting impact on my entire future career,” Gayatri reflects. It has also paid immediate dividends – Gayatri is now working as a Program Director in skills development at Wadhwani Foundation, who will also host an AIF Clinton Fellow this coming year. Gayatri is looking forward to serving as the new Fellow’s alumni mentor in India.

MATERNAL AND NEWBORN SURVIVAL INITIATIVE (MANSI) public-private partnership for community health
PROGRAM ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Since 2009, AIF has been working to reduce maternal and child mortality in rural, impoverished areas of Jharkhand through the Maternal and Newborn Survival Initiative (MANSI), an innovative public-private partnership model for community health. Providing basic medical knowledge and training to local community health workers (Sahiyyas), the program creates a safety net of trusted community figures for mothers who live far from hospitals and need medical attention. The training in turn empowers local women to care for their community in home-based neonatal care, ensuring proper and regular medical attention during pregnancy and postnatal care, including medical cases in infants such as hypothermia, low birth weight, pre-term babies, and breast-feeding problems. MANSI also works to increase institutional deliveries, which provide a safe and sterile environment for childbirth overseen by medical experts. A community surveillance system helps diagnose emergencies early for referral to hospitals. Starting with direct intervention in the villages, the project is designed to build local capacities for communities to care for their mothers and children and ensure a successful start to life.

INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS
DAIRY COLLECTIVE In rural areas of Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh, the most common livelihood – agriculture – is persistently threatened by drought, and villagers are unable to benefit from government schemes that concentrate around industrial centers. The Dairy Collective builds bridges for families living in underserved rural communities by creating a sustainable economic system through developing livelihoods that are not dependent on farming, empowering women through selfhelp groups, providing access to business services and credit for the purchase of livestock and other assets.
In 2012, the Dairy Collective implemented a new initiative called Pashu Sakhi – a community-based paraworker training program offering veterinary care services that ensure proper care of their valuable milk animals. Other achievements include the formation of a new collective in Uniyara, Tonk District of Rajasthan, as well as the conversion of 50 existing milk collection centers into fully automated facilities.

OUTREACH & ENGAGEMENT – U.S. AIF’s supporters form a nationwide network of dedicated, passionate philanthropists and volunteers whose determination and hard work has been essential to the success and growth of the organization. Through chapters in New York, the San Francisco Bay Area, Los Angeles, Chicago, New England, and Washington DC, AIF supporters organize events of many types and sizes – from intimate conversations to elegant Galas – to raise awareness of the issues faced by marginalized communities in India, and to raise funds to alleviate and eradicate them. AIF chapters harness the collective will of their communities, direct it to helping AIF empower the most vulnerable and disadvantaged people in India, and provide a ladder of opportunity for them to fulfill their potential to lead successful, productive lives.
BRINGING INDIA TO THE US This year, AIF was lucky enough to be able to bring several inspirational people participating in various programs from India to meet donors and supporters in the United States. 16-year-old Sunita Koli inspired the audience at AIF’s Annual Bay Area Gala with her story of becoming the first girl in her community to graduate 10th grade, after spending most of her childhood toiling on salt pans, through the educational opportunities provided to her by the Learning and Migration Program. Jatinder Pal Singh, a Digital Equalizer math teacher in Punjab, shared with guests at AIF’s Southern California Dinner how access to technology has changed the lives of underprivileged students in his classroom. Finally, partner NGO SAATH’s Executive Director Keren Nazareth attended an AIF reception in Los Angeles and shared her views on creating livelihood opportunities in India. Each visitor had experienced AIF’s programs in a different context – from student to teacher to partner – and each person had a unique story to tell, bringing AIF’s work on the ground to the supporters who make it possible.
