Accounting update from Vivek Bhai from India.

Respected Friend,

By chance i was visiting blogs of AID on Flood-2008 at http://love4bihar.blogspot.com/.

After seeing recent posts on it. I thought i should provide information on Rs 4,00,000 of AID.

In our organization, till now we do not pay salary or honourarium type financial supports to our team members thus we do not pay these also on Flood Relief works.
Till now, we do not have paid volunteers in our team.

Our team used my personal family money, my personal friends' money and local contributions (including team members and community) for transport, travel, accommodation, food, communication and other running expenses.
