Above: NPH / Hunter Johnson GET CLOSER with NPH USA • nphusa.org 5 2015 Treasurer’s Report

Due to the amazing generosity of our donors, NPH USA has once again recorded another successful year and provided almost $11 million in cash and medical supplies to NPH International. During the previous five years, your donations to NPH USA have increased an average of 14% per year – resulting in $3.5 million more of annual support to NPH International and the children that they serve. The organization continually generates a healthy program ratio and 2015 was no different as our 75% puts us in excellent standing with the major U.S. fundraising rating agencies.

During 2015, NPH USA provided $10.9 million of support to NPH International, comprised of $9.2 million of cash and $1.7 million of materials (primarily medical in nature). In 2015, we achieved an operating surplus of $0.5 million, even after increasing our support to NPHI from the preceding year. This surplus stemmed primarily from our growth in unrestricted revenue and helped to drive an increase in our cash reserve to $3.3 million. In light of our strong record of growth and healthy cash position, NPH USA’s board committed to increase the level of support that it provides to NPHI in 2016 by $750,000. Once again, this could not be accomplished without the amazing dedication of you, our donors.

NPH USA is committed to maintaining a healthy financial position and balance sheet. We continue to closely monitor our financial performance and with the help of the NPH USA Board and Finance Committee will take actions to ensure that we will always be there for the children of NPH. As our staff implements fundraising plans, your continued support remains the absolutely vital key to our success. We hope, and believe, that you will continue to keep the children of NPH uppermost in your hearts and minds.

On behalf of the children of NPH, thank you for your support,

The curriculum is based on principles of servant leadership and grounded in our NPH philosophy. The small size of the program offers the capacity to engage in challenging and rigorous personal and group work, as well as the ability to adapt to the needs of each student.

Each participant lives with a host family, works with an intergenerational mentor, participates in job-shadowing experiences, and studies intense English at a local community college. Additionally, the students participate in weekly leadership courses, weekend workshops, service activities, and several longer retreats during the year. They are coached in their personal growth by the program director and others who support the The 2015 - 2016 Leadership students at orientation in Seattle, WA. Photo by Kara King program in Seattle.
