Rick-I looked over the policy statement and it looks fine to me. I think a broader question we may need to ask is: should we continue to manage this account at all??? These funds are used for very admirable and important projects-but ones that are not necessarily consistent with WFP/USA's mission. And WFP/USA staff time is used to deal with this-taking time away from working on issues/projects/initiatives that better align with our mission. Just something we ought to at least consider going forward. Thanks.

It provides small grants to NGOs in developing countries that promote girls education. Please let me know if you want additional information on the Fund. Thanks again.
