The information below is for the 2014-2015 season and is final.

Revenue

There is some additional information concerning revenue on the budget history page.

The small grants are really 2-3 very generous contributions. One is from a family foundation, any others are just personal tax deductable donations. Because of their size they skew the figures and graphs for more typical donations and we separate them and call them small grants.

The store was almost entirely inactive at this point after the director moved to Tbilisi the previous season.

Expenses

The expenses here do not include a debt of approximately $1500 to the director from the previous season. If this had been repaid it would be a break-even season, but that loan was not repaid this season in order to keep some operating finds in the bank.

Staffing: None. All work continues to be donated.

Phones and Hosting: A monthly web hosting fee is included here, along with phone bills and the occasional calling cards for cheap international calls are also in the category but are small expenses.

Travel: There have been no travel expense during this season.

Contributions by Month

Last season our contributions continued to drop significantly. We only had one update. Updates usually include reminders to donate, and every time we ask we get additional donations. When we ask less we get less. The realities of fundraising.

The reasons for this drop in activity, including updates and therefore fundraising opportunities, is outlined in an entry in our Administration and Operations Blog.
