DDF contributions in grey are pending approval of the corresponding district committee.
Note: as of July 1, 2015 there is a 5% additional support fee for cash contributions. This fee does not appear in the financials above because it does not apply if the funds are sent directly to the project account (without going through TRF, and therefore without Paul Harris credit). Clubs sending their cash contribution to TRF must be aware they will have to send an additional 5%.

G-949 was submitted to TRF and became Global Grant # GG1533178. TRF staff did not allow inclusion of ambulance. In the past weeks the project sponsors, supporters and advisers developed a reclama to TRF with rationale for the original project. Members of our Idaho team will visit the clinic site in November. We hope that this project will go forward because it is needed by residents in the Jongksha Village area.
