Recipient implementing partner organizations are required to submit narrative and financial reports, which are monitored by the relevant Board Standing Committee, and discussed at all full board meetings, in relation to the agreed upon project proposal (often co-designed with RPI), budget, and memorandum of understanding signed between RPI and the recipient organization for a given project. Other forms of monitoring include vetting of the recipient organization (also ensuring they are not on the OFAC SDN List), travel for office visits and project site visits (particularly for new partners), security permitting, and ongoing communication throughout the project period. RPI also retains the right to request third parties to conduct anonymous Method of accounting for expenditures (Part I, line 3, col f) Accrual accounting is used. Russia and neighboring countries refers to aid for civilians in government-controlled regions of Ukraine. Humanitarian goods are purchased in Romania and driven into Ukraine by Romanian volunteers and US-based staff who travel to the region, sometimes with the voluntary support of Romanian NGOs. Total expenses exclude salary to traveling US staff. Grant-making to the European region is for refugee-led partner organizations whose headquarters are based in European countries, but which implement the cash grants received to assist civilians in the Middle East. Total expenses exclude US-based activities to sell refugee-made gifts to provide humanitarian grants abroad. Accounting Method (Part II, line 1) The organization uses 3 accounting categories: (1) disbursed cash grants; (2) purchased humanitarian goods for donation; and (3) distributing in-kinds (humanitarian goods) donated to RPI. Category 2 is broken down by type of goods purchased - medical equipment and supplies; food aid and other relief items (shelter non-food items; hygiene items); and vehicles for civilian evacuations. Categories 2 and 3 are considered non-cash assistance in the 990 and Schedule F.
