Financials

Central Asia Institute is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization dedicated to use every dollar contributed as efficiently as possible. It is our goal to spend no more than 15% of your donation on overhead (administrative and fundraising costs), and to spend 85% of your contribution on our programs. In FY 2006, an increase in fundraising costs existed due to an effort by Greg Mortenson to travel the country, perform hundreds of speaking engagements and promote his book Three Cups of Tea to spread the message of our important mission.

Our pledge to our donors is to continue to keep our overhead low, to maximize the percentage of your contributions that go towards our programs, and to spend our program dollars wisely so that thousands of children may benefit from our work.
