This past year we had a leadership change at Give2Asia, as Dr. Ta-lin Hsu stepped down from his role as Board Chairman and handed the mantle to Mr. George SyCip. We thank Dr. Hsu for his excellent leadership for the past five years and his continued guidance on Give2Asia’s board. This transition happens at a time of great opportunity for Asia when local investment in charitable projects and social enterprises is on the rise. Give2Asia has ambitious plans for supporting individual communities and local efforts that are setting the pace for the region’s overall growth. Our work across health, education, livelihood, disaster, and the environment follows a focus on “bottom up” development and the belief that letting communities lead their own growth is the most impactful and efficient way to achieve sustainable development. Once again, China and India are the top destinations of our donor-advised grant making, and combined they make up 50 percent of our investments in 2016. We thank all of the corporations, foundations and families that partnered with us to make their philanthropy more impactful. Meanwhile, across South, Southeast and East Asia, we continue to build upon our disaster recovery and resiliency and fiscal sponsorship programs, which aim to build the capacity of Asia-based nonprofits and showcase innovations that have the potential for expansion. Of particular note, Give2Asia’s fiscal sponsorship program grew by nearly 65 percent and added 100 new partners during 2016. On behalf of Give2Asia’s entire board and staff, we value your commitment to Asia and appreciate your trust in us. We look forward to continuing our partnership with you. Best wishes, Mr. George SyCip Mr. Birger Stamperdahl Chairman of the Board, Give2Asia President and CEO, Give2Asia INTRODUCTION | 03 BY THE NUMBERS We envision healthy and prosperous communities supported by an expanded flow of philanthropy and locally-led development.

We enable employee giving and matching, volunteerism, and tax-deductible giving to charitable groups in Asia from the United States or Hong Kong. Give2Asia guides projects to completion, expanding the capacity of corporate foundation and community engagement teams. By building trusted relationships with local organizations, companies build long-lasting partnerships with beneficiary communities. FAMILIES AND FOUNDATIONS Give2Asia partners with families and foundations to support communities, their local nonprofits, and solutions to the issues they face. Our network of local experts carry out research, due diligence, program management, and reporting to help understand impact. Give2Asia establishes long-term partnerships with Asia-based nonprofits to enable families and foundations to streamline their tax-deductible donations to favorite charitable organizations in Asia, such as universities and schools, health services groups, and grassroots nonprofits. We also provides project-based advised grant making for donors who wish to ensure their philanthropy is used for a specific purpose. Lastly, endowments and scholarships to Asia-based groups provide support and strengthen families and communities over time. CHARITABLE GROUPS IN ASIA Give2Asia’s Fiscal Sponsorship Program offers Asia-based charitable and educational organizations a convenient and cost-effective way to accept tax-deductible contributions from supporters in the United States. Give2Asia takes care of the day-to-day administration, accounting, and legal and reporting requirements, making it simpler for Asia-based organizations to connect to US-based donors with charitable projects in Asia. Fiscal Sponsorships allow charitable organizations to focus time and resources on fundraising rather than gift administration.

Funders for LGBTQ Issues works to increase the scale and impact of philanthropic resources aimed at enhancing the well-being of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer communities, promoting equity, and advancing racial, economic and gender justice. We are a network of more than 80 foundations, corporations, and other grantmaking institutions that collectively award more than $1 billion in funding annually, including more than $100 million specifically devoted to LGBTQ issues. With an awareness that LGBT Americans are 25 percent more likely to lack healthcare coverage compared to non-LGBT Americans, our network is actively working to address health disparities affecting LGBT Americans.1 We know that LGBT Americans suffer from higher rates of cancer, cardiovascular disease, HIV/AIDS infection, and mental health issues.2 Our most recent tracking report on LGBTQ grantmaking by U.S. foundations identified $27.6 million in funding aimed at improving the health and wellbeing of the more than 11.3 million Americans who openly identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender.3,4 Legislation or rules that reduce 1 The Williams Institute, UCLA School of Law, “LGBT Data & Demographics,” accessed July 16, 2019.

    CREATING COMMUNITIES THROUGH AFTERSCHOOL DEVELOPMENT 2016 ANNUAL REPORT OUR MISSION The All Stars Project transforms the lives of youth and poor communities using the developmental power of performance, in partnership with caring adults. OUR VISION By 2020, the All Stars Project will be recognized as America’s action and thought leader in Afterschool Development, a new way of engaging poverty. OUR VALUES Integrity and trust Partnership with the poor Building community Radically inclusive Imagining possibility Improving the world Dear Friends, At a moment when people across the country and the world are working to overcome deep divisions, I am so proud to be joining with people of all ages and from all walks of life to grow a national development community filled with possibility and hope. The All Stars began working in poor neighborhoods 36 years ago, and we never left — we continue to stand on street corners, knock on doors in housing projects and walk the halls of struggling schools to offer thousands of young people and families an opportunity to be part of creating something new in their lives. Across America, All Stars' mission and vision are being championed and shaped by forward-looking and committed partners who are passionate about opening up pathways of opportunity for inner- city youth. Privately funded from the start, last year the All Stars Project raised over $9.7 million from more than 3,500 donors who are dedicated to partnering with youth and finding new ways to strengthen our American community. With this support, we have launched a campaign to establish our third Center for Afterschool Development — this one in Chicago’s downtown Loop.

Last year, I saw our partners, families and supporters align in powerful ways. I know by working together we will absolutely put our children on a trajectory to college and end multigenerational poverty on the Northside! Last year was incredible. Moving at turbo speed, we enrolled more families, increased the number of programs and opportunities, rolled out our quality assurance and evaluation processes, and much more. NAZ parents and scholars are my personal inspiration. Many come from very difficult situations but are determined to succeed. More parents are completing their goals and more scholars are accelerating their learning by attending academically based out-of-school programming. They are the leaders of a long-awaited change on the Northside. I’m grateful to our partners—from housing, to early childhood, to careers, to schools, to behavioral health, to out-of-school programs, to Friends of the Future—they have all stepped up to create a cocoon of support for families most in need. I’m amazed by our incredible staff who surround our families with high expectations and high supports every day. Most of our team members come from the Northside, and some are NAZ parents.
