FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial
statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal
control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors’ Responsibility
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’
judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial
statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor
considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the
financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of
the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also
includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the
reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to
provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the financial position of The American India Foundation as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, and the
changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Emphasis of Matter
As discussed in Note 11 to the financial statements, in March 2020, the United States declared
the global pandemic novel coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency. As a result,
The American India Foundation has suspended or adapted some of its activities at the direction
of state and local governmental authorities. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this
matter.

a - Organization
The American India Foundation (“AIF” or the “Organization”) is a not-for-profit
organization formed to provide financial, technological, and managerial resources
toward helping the people of India realize their full potential and strengthening the
bonds between the United States of America and India.
Grants to the Trust from AIF, to support program related expenses, totaled
$3,970,396 and $1,518,820 for the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019,
respectively (see Note 8). The outstanding advance to the Trust was $88,593 at
March 31, 2019. In addition, $45,070 and $1,055,388 was awarded to non-
governmental organizations during the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019,
respectively.
AIF received 13% of its contributions from one donor during the year ended March
31, 2019.
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities are
referred to as Level 1 inputs. Inputs other than quoted market prices that are
observable, either directly or indirectly and reasonably available are referred to as
Level 2 inputs. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would
use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data
obtained from sources independent of the Organization. Unobservable inputs reflect
the assumptions developed based on available information about what market
participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are referred to as Level 3
inputs.
An asset or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest
level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Availability of
observable inputs can vary and is affected by a variety of factors. The investment
managers use judgment in determining fair value of assets and liabilities. Level 3
assets and liabilities involve greater judgment than Level 1 or Level 2 assets or
liabilities.
All of the Organization's marketable investments are classified within Level 1 (prices
in active markets for identical assets or liabilities) of the fair value hierarchy.
e - Investments
The Organization reflects its marketable investments at fair value in the statement
of financial position. Restricted stock is reflected at the appraised value at the time
of donation. Interest, dividends, and gains and losses on investments are reflected
in the statement of activities as increases and decreases in net assets without
donor restrictions, unless their use is restricted by explicit donor stipulations or by
law.
Purchases and sales of investments reflected in the statement of cash flows are
reported net of short-term investments with maturities of three months or less.

THE AMERICAN INDIA FOUNDATION
g - Grants Awarded
Unconditional grants are recorded when awarded to the grantee organization.
i - Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results
could differ from those estimates.
j - Income Taxes
The American India Foundation is a not-for-profit organization exempt from federal
income taxes under Section 501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code and has been
designated as an organization which is not a private foundation.
k - Subsequent Events
The Organization has evaluated subsequent events through October 22, 2020, the
date that the financial statements are considered available to be issued.
11
THE AMERICAN INDIA FOUNDATION
The Organization operates with a balanced budget for each fiscal year based on the
revenues expected to be available to fund anticipated expenses. A substantial portion
of annual revenue is comprised of contribution revenue raised during the current year,
and revenue from other sources earned during the year. The Organization considers
general expenditures to consist of all expenses related to its ongoing program activities,
and the expenses related to general and administrative and fundraising activities
undertaken to support those services.
The Organization regularly monitors liquidity to meet its operating needs and other
commitments and obligations, while seeking to maximize the investment of its available
funds. Management prepares regular cash flow projections to determine liquidity needs,
and has a policy to maintain liquid financial assets on an ongoing basis sufficient to
cover ninety days of general expenditures. Financial assets in excess of daily cash
requirements are invested in money market funds and certificates of deposit.

are sufficient to support its operations on an ongoing basis.
In May 2020, AIF received a $326,000 Paycheck Protection Program loan having an
interest rate of 1% and a maturity of 2 years. The loan and any accrued interest can be
forgiven in its entirety if the loan proceeds are applied towards applicable payroll and
