2009 ANNUAL REPORT LETTER TO OUR SUPPORTERS

Dear Friends,

2009 has been a transformative year for Flying Kites in many ways. The generosity of our many friends and donors this past year has allowed us to grow and to continue to ful"ll our mission: to raise the standards of care available to the world’s poorest children. As part of this growth, Mr. and Mrs. Maxwell and Ann Sturgis contributed $20,000 to allow Flying Kites to purchase six acres of land in the Kinangop District. On this land, we will construct the Feinstein Junior Scholars’ Academy, a primary school made possible through the generosity of Mr. Alan Shawn Feinstein, who awarded Flying Kites a $60,000 grant. Flying Kites is so thankful for these donations which provided a smooth transition during a challenging time for our organization in which Flying Kites was forced to break our partnership with our two in-country Directors who did not comply with our commitment to "nancial transparency.

The Flying Kites family has settled into a beautiful, leased, seven-bedroom cottage just a short distance from our permanent home. Our new four-acre location has a!orded us the opportunity to expand our on-site school to accommodate 60 students from the local community in addition to the Flying Kites children.

Our team in Kenya has grown with the addition of Sarah Medway who will serve as our Country Director for one year. We look forward to approaching 2010 with a renewed sense of leadership that will be supported by the strong organizational foundation we have developed over the past two years. We will break ground on our primary school in January, the opening ceremony of which will mark the launch of our Capital TABLE OF CONTENTS Campaign, “Building Higher Expectations,” through which we hope to raise the funds necessary to build homes for our children and additional educational space on our Letter to Our Supporters new site.

Flying Kites Boards While the past year has brought us our largest trials to date, we have worked through Volunteers & Sta! them and earned even greater rewards. Our experiences throughout 2009 have allowed us to re"ne our vision and prove our determination, and they have allowed Mission & Philosophy the children in our care to witness "rsthand the fruits of honesty, hard work, resolution and innovation. Flying Kites Pro"les Thank you for your continued support, FKLA Leila, Justine, & Toby Programs & Operations

MISSION PHILOSOPHY

Flying Kites seeks to raise the standards of care available to the world’s poorest children. We are a non-pro"t organization ORPHANED CHILDREN that strives to give these children the tools they will need – education, imagination, and resolution – to succeed in and contribute to a complex and changing world. It is estimated that every 14 seconds a child is orphaned in sub-Saharan Africa. In poor countries such as Kenya, very few social services exist to care for these children. Many end up living on the streets, or are squeezed MODEL into overcrowded orphanages in the city slums. These facilities are often decrepit buildings that lack basic amenities such as running water, toilets, and electricity. The children living there do not have enough to eat and Provide orphaned children with a nurturing home and an exceptional communicable diseases are rife. Despite these adversities, the children are desperate for an education and eager education to learn. Although public elementary education in Kenya is free, most schools are understa!ed and overcrowded. With up to 130 students per classroom and few resources, it is not surprising that less than 50 percent of students go on to high school, and less than three percent attend college.

Many current approaches to the orphan crisis, reactive in nature, are inherently limited and do little to break the cycle of poverty. Given a fair chance, these children will "ght their way out of this misery. At Flying Kites, this Promote collaboration among non-pro"t organizations around the chance begins with remarkable care. world to maximize resources and strengthen the communities we serve

REMARKABLE CARE

Raise awareness about the crises facing orphaned children and facilitate The Flying Kites vision of providing remarkable care demands that we get the basics right. Our site in the Aberdares Mountains provides clean water, fresh air, fertile farmland, nutritious food, and abundant space where thoughtful action the children can learn, grow, and play.

The Flying Kites Leadership Academy (FKLA) will be made up of 10 individual houses that accommodate 15 children and two housemothers. This creates a loving and nurturing environment, and gives the children a place to call home. Happy, healthy children are ready to learn. At our on-site school, our quality teaching sta! provide these children with the modern education they need to transform their lives.

TREMENDOUS OUTCOMES

We start from the premise that every child can succeed. We aim to create an environment of expectation where such success is the norm, and not the exception. Our children will be equipped to lead diverse lives as citizens of their country and members of a global society.

We will prepare our children to achieve their highest potential, be tolerant and understanding, respect themselves as well as others, and be responsible custodians of the environment. Through our emphasis on compassion, advocacy, and leadership, we hope our children will champion causes of social justice. In our experience, adults who have endured the privations of orphanhood often have a desire to ensure that future generations do not have to face the same hardships.

Our goal is to foster this desire in our children by fusing the drive to help those in need with the tools necessary to make their voices and actions count. Flying Kites graduates will be positioned to have an impact on the world greatly beyond their numbers. Pro"le of our Country Director Donor Pro"le SARAH MEDWAY ANN STURGIS

Originally from Texas, Sarah completed her undergraduate degree at the University of Texas at Austin before going on to Ann Sturgis and her husband Max of Park City, Utah, gave Flying Kites a Christmas gift of $20,000 that helped us purchase Georgetown University Law Center.

When asked why she supports Flying Kites, Ann replied, “We chose to donate $20,000 to Flying Kites because we Sarah has brought so much to our team in Kenya including legal experience, administrative skills and, most importantly, were impressed with the goals and accomplishments of the organization and its founders.” Ann also supports other love for our children. Her energy and enthusiasm for the work of Flying Kites and the children we serve have inspired inspirational organizations such as Doctors Without Borders and Partners in Health. members of the local community to name her, “the mother of all of Kinangop’s children.” FLYING KITES LEADERSHIP ACADEMY

NEW LOCATION In December 2009 Flying Kites relocated our orphanage and school to a leased four-acre property on the other side of Njabini. The new property boasts incredible views of the Aberdares Mountains, and o!ers a secure and secluded environment in which the children can play and learn. This site consists of a large cottage, a spacious school building, a dining hall, a sprawling lawn, and acres of fertile farmland. Our children live on this property, and our school has remained open, with more than 60 children coming to the new property for their education. We anticipate taking in a further seven orphans in the early part of 2010.

FUTURE SITE OF THE FLYING KITES LEADERSHIP ACADEMY Flying Kites purchased a new six-new acre property in Njabini in December. This new property will serve as the future site of the Flying Kites Leadership Academy (FKLA), the name we have given to our new home. Trees line the property, and a fresh water stream runs along the base of the site. Cows and goats roam the surrounding farms, and the Aberdares towering in the distance create a breathtaking view. FKLA will consist of family houses that will accommodate 150 children as well as school buildings, an administrative block, sta! housing, a library, a clinic, and a recreational facility.

FEINSTEIN JUNIOR SCHOLARS ACADEMY In November, Flying Kites secured funding to build our permanent school on the new six-acre property. Philanthropist Alan Shawn Feinstein of Cranston, RI, generously donated $60,000 to construct the Feinstein Junior Scholars Academy. The 2,500 sq. ft. building will include four classrooms, o#ce space, and restrooms. Mr. Feinstein is known for generously supporting schools in Rhode Island with an emphasis on community service and the alleviation of hunger. Construction of the new school will begin in January 2010.

FKLA INTERNATIONAL VOLUNTEER PROGRAM 2009 saw many volunteers from across the globe make the trip to Kenya to work with our children. Approximately 24 individuals from countries such as Denmark, the United States, and the United Kingdom spent several weeks/ months, o!ering private tutoring to our children, teaching specialized lessons, arranging extra curricular activities, planning "eld trips, and making improvements to the home.

Flying Kites requires that individuals interested in volunteering with FKLA submit an application, references, and background check, and commit to a minimum one-month stay in Kenya. FKLA can now accommodate up to eight volunteers at a time. PROGRAMS & OPERATIONS

CHILD SPONSORSHIP Flying Kites has further developed its Child Sponsorship Program to maximize the relationship between a child living at FKLA and their international sponsor. Our Child Sponsorship Program asks that supporters help Flying Kites cover the cost of caring for one child at FKLA for one year. In exchange, our supporters are able to see their donations at work as our children continue to thrive in the care of Flying Kites.

A sponsorship of a child at Flying Kites includes photographs, background information on a particular child, letters and drawings, progress reports, and holiday cards. The cost of a child sponsorship helps Flying Kites purchase food, clothing, medicine, and educational supplies for the children, and it also supplements the income of the sta! who directly care for them.

In 2009 all of our children had international sponsors and it is our hope that one day the children of Flying Kites can meet face to face with their sponsors.

FLYING KITES PRODUCTIONS Flying Kites Productions (FK Productions) is a mission-driven "lm company. Our work records, supports, and communicates the e!orts of Flying Kites to illustrate the di#culties orphaned children endure and encourage audiences to think critically about their needs. We use these "lms to answer questions about the children: Why are they in this situation? Who is working for them? What is working against them? And "nally, what can Flying Kites do to help?

Flying Kites, the "rst documentary "lm produced by FK Productions (2008), follows Leila, Toby, and Justine as volunteers in the slums of Nairobi. The "lm is a visual account of the origins of Flying Kites, and has been our largest fundraising and awareness-raising tool to date.

In 2009 the FK Productions team produced and edited Nowhere Children, a documentary that was "lmed in New Delhi, India, that showcases the plight of Delhi’s street children. For one month, the FK Productions crew navigated the harsh conditions of a drug-ridden and violent New Delhi, where children are forced into brothels and sweatshops, or left to die of heroine overdoses under the city’s railway platforms. Post-production work is being done on Nowhere Children and we anticipate its completion in early 2010.

MYTURN Flying Kites began when a group of college students sought to challenge the level of care a!orded to orphaned children in the slums of Kenya. We recognize the power of the ambitious student and have created the MyTurn program to engage like-minded youth in the e!ort to help break the cycle of poverty for children worldwide.

MyTurn representatives visit colleges and universities throughout the northeast to screen Flying Kites, a "lm that documents the origins of Flying Kites Leadership Academy, and tells the stories of countless orphans in need of a better future. Students then form MyTurn chapters at their college or university, advocate on behalf of vulnerable children, and garner funds to help raise the standards of care available to them.

In 2009, Flying Kites introduced MyTurn to the following colleges and universities: Salve Regina University, University of New Haven, Johnson & Wales University, Bryant University, and Tufts University.

By May 2010, Flying Kites hopes to establish more than 20 MyTurn chapters on U.S. College and University campuses. FLYING KITES MAGNET EFFECT The Magnet E!ect Program aims to facilitate development in South Kinangop- where Flying Kites Leadership Academy is located – by encouraging collaborative action on complex community issues. Flying Kites seeks to partner with individuals, nonpro"t organizations, government agencies, and corporations to raise the standards of living in South Kinangop. We will pool resources with experts in "elds such as agriculture, health, education, micro"nance, human rights, infrastructure, and the environment, in order to bring about systemic community development. In addition to providing impoverished local families with small grants, school fees, and provisions, Flying Kites has also launched a rabbit-rearing project designed to provide impoverished families with a source of sustainable income.

ADVENTURE CHALLENGES Flying Kites supporters are diverse in their interests and experiences. The Adventure Challenges program o!ers an exciting way for participants to push themselves to mental FLYING KITES OASIS and physical extremes for an organization they care about.

‘FLYING KITES’ PREMIERES AT JANE PICKENS THEATER & EVENTS CENTER

On September 30, 2009, approximately 150 Newport residents and friends of Flying Kites attended a screening of Flying Kites, our feature-length documentary, at the Jane Pickens Theater and Events Center located at 49 Touro Street in Newport. Flying Kites was awarded the title of ‘Best Student Film’ at the 2009 Philadelphia Independent Film Festival, and chronicles the Flying Kites founders as they confront the overwhelming orphan crisis in Nairobi, Kenya.

Flying Kites was "lmed in the summer of 2006. The "lm’s creator, Chad Shagren, aimed to depict the tremendous obstacles that arise when trying to a!ect meaningful change in the lives of orphaned children living in the slums of a major city. Flying Kites exposes precisely why the Flying Kites’ founders developed a daring vision that lead them to open their own orphanage.

Following the screening of the "lm was a cocktail reception. Local Newporters who were previously unfamiliar with Flying Kites had the opportunity to speak with members of the organization, ask questions, and learn about the organization’s progress since the documentary was "lmed. The sponsors of the reception included Bellevue Wine and Spirits of Newport, Sweet Berry Farm in Middletown, Rhode Island, Newport Specialty Foods, and the Jane Pickens Theater.

‘COVER FOR A CAUSE’ GETS SUPPORT FROM LOCAL NEWPORT ESTABLISHMENTS

For a week in September various local Newport bars and restaurants supported Flying Kites by participating in their ‘Cover for A Cause’ campaign held from Sept. 13 to Sept. 26, 2009. Each night of the week a di!erent establishment donated their cover charge to Flying Kites. In addition, drink specials, ra$e items, and door prizes were available at each location.

‘Cover for A Cause’ raised more than $2,000 for Flying Kites. The Newport establishments that took part were Pour Judgement, The Landing, POP Kitchen + Cocktails, Asterisk, and O’Brien’s Pub. FINANCIAL REVIEW 2009 FINANCIAL SUMMARY

2009, our third year in operation, was one of signi"cant organizational and "nancial growth. We are proud to say that despite lingering economic di#culty, we saw an increase in revenue of 28%. Our supporters this year not only made signi"cant "nancial contributions but helped spread the word about Flying Kites to educate others about the orphan crisis in Kenya, and many took on the role of fundraisers themselves.

The $189,598.00 that was raised this year allowed us to further develop our work in Kenya at the Flying Kites Leadership Academy, and to grow a number of vital fundraising and outreach programs here in the United States. These programs, such as My Turn and Adventure Challenges, are sure to give Flying Kites a signi"cant degree of "nancial independence in the coming years. Until then, we are thrilled to report that in 2009, public support accounted for 99.88% of total funds raised. We would like to extend our deepest gratitude to the individuals and foundations that helped make 2009 a successful year for us. We would also like to thank our growing and dedicated sta! who continue to work tirelessly without compensation. You are changing lives.

One of the original six children to live at Flying Kites, Moses has witnessed many orphaned children settle in to live or attend school at his home. Quite the nurturer, Moses has become a “brother” to many of our new children, o!ering comfort to them when they are feeling scared or sad.

Recently, Moses was asked about his dreams for the future. When asked what kind of job he wanted to have, Moses replied, with such sincerity, “ I want to be a person who helps children.” When pressed further to explain what type of person he means, he said, “A director of a children’s home.” His response to this question has left a mark on all of us at Flying Kites, and we are determined to see Moses live out his dream to help other children.
