Mission and Programs

Mission

IRD''s strategic goal is to implement targeted, cost-effective relief and development programs that improve the lives of the world''s most vulnerable groups. IRD works within six main areas of development: Civil Society, Food Security, Public Health, Relief, Economic Development, and Infrastructure.

Programs

IRD Indonesia has implemented relief and development programs for the past six years. IRD's programs have increased employment by bringing idle factories back into production. By producing soy-enriched noodles, IRD provides a food to 4.5 million low-income consumers each month.IRD assisted earthquake and flood victims in Java and internally displaced people from North Maluku in North Sulawesi. Its programs also improve the health and educational status of more than 75,000 school children and their families by reducing hunger, renovating water and sanitation facilities, strengthening school committees and school health programs, and improving community outreach activities.
IRD Sri Lanka is implementing an educational support program where it is annually feeding 12,000 school children, de-worming children and renovating 25 schools in Hambantota. IRD is in the process of establishing its field office in Hambantota and will operate in all three zones of the district: Hambantota; Tangalle; and Walasmulla.
Public Health: IRD's programs provide rapid-response health services to disaster-affected populations to prevent excess mortality and morbidity. Its programs focus on: community-based primary health care; health education and promotion; control of infectious diseases; water and sanitation; malaria; nutrition; reproductive health; HIV/AIDS and Tuberculosis.
Water and Sanitation: IRD has rehabilitated and drilled over 80 wells and provided other water supply and sanitation systems in diverse conditions such as Georgia, Indonesia, and Ukraine, with a majority of the wells in Indonesia.
Infrastructure Rehabilitation: IRD's projects are renovating infrastructure in post-conflict situations. In Indonesia's conflict-affected North Maluku IRD supported over 100 small-scale infrastructure projects to benefit over 31,000 beneficiaries from 35 villages. IRD has rehabilitated over 250 schools and clinics in the Baghdad region of Iraq. Some other examples include rehabilitation of over 15 medical clinics and IDP collective centers in the New Independent States (NIS) and 65 medical facilities, kindergarten, primary and secondary schools in Serbia and Montenegro.
Rebuilding Livelihoods:IRD implements public works projects for emergency job creation for IDPs and other victims of natural and conflict-related disasters. IRD has also provided business inputs, social loans, and grants to small entrepreneurs to help them rebuild their livelihood and improve their access to credit. For example, in the province of North Maluku, Indonesia, IRD implemented a quick-impact, economic recovery program, that provided economic empowerment grants to 17 conflict-affected villages to benefit 12,000 people. IRD's USAID-funded programs in Serbia and Montenegro have generated over $9 million in income and over 100,000 person-months.
Humanitarian Commodities: IRD's procurement and logistics staff tracks and monitors the acquisition, shipment and delivery of pharmaceuticals, medical supplies and equipment as well as other humanitarian aid commodities. Over the past five years, IRD has shipped $142 million of in-kind contributions to over 15 countries.
Food Aid
IRD is a leader in utilizing food commodities to develop and support production and distribution of fortified, enriched foods to increase food availability. IRD's staple products provide low-cost, micronutrient-fortified food to low-income families and school children and improve food access. IRD also contributes to increased dietary adequacy and improved understanding of food utilization, through its initiatives on dietary diversification and promotion of micronutrient intake.

Balance Sheet: Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 2007

Notes
The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot long survive, but the types of assets and liabilities also must be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
