Our logo CARE's brand mark - 'the community of hands' - symbolises our humanism, and evokes the concepts of self-expression and industriousness. The circular shape suggests the holistic and collaborative nature of CARE's work and our global scope, as well as unity and diversity. The earth-toned colour palette conveys warmth, optimism and a grounded sensibility, combining to illustrate the spirit of working together, and the power of what is possible when people unite around a common goal. > Contents Contents Contents Chairman's message 02 Chairman's message CEO's message 03 message CEO's Fast facts 04 The CARE family The CARE family 07 Fast facts Cambodia 08 About CARE Laos 10 Cambodia Yemen 12 JordanVietnam 14 Laos Jordan 16 Myanmar/Burma 18 Myanmar/Burma( Kenya 20 Vietnam Timor-Leste 21 Yemen Emergencies 22 Kenya Fundraising highlights 24 Timor-Leste highlights Programming 25 Preparing for and responding to emergencies Our partners 26 CARE Young Executive Committee Our Board 26 Fundraising Our partners Committee 26 Special thanks 27 Special thanks Our Board 28 Financial Committee Fundraising Report 2006 29 Young Executive CARE A commitment to CARE Committee 34 Volunteer story The Will to CARE 35 A commitment to CARE Fundraising highlights Throughout this report Overseas operations and programmes CARE is report Financial committed to building a child-safe organisation.

Myanmar Burma is the name recognised by the Australian Government. Bequests Timor-Leste was formerly known as East Timor. Chairman's message CARE has responded to humanitarian suffering in many parts of the world over the past year. The earthquakes in Pakistan and Indonesia come immediately to mind, as well as the turmoil in Sudan and the Middle East and the civil unrest in Timor-Leste. CARE Australia, together with the CARE International family, is consistently at the forefront of emergency response and the delivery of longer-term aid. Every year, CARE assists some 45 million people, many of them in our region of the world. The fundamental role that women play in their communities is essential to many of our aid projects and we place special emphasis on women's roles in health, education, land management and small business enterprises. Currently, the CARE family is celebrating two significant milestones. CARE International has just turned 60 this year (2006), and CARE Australia will be commemorating its 20th birthday in 2007. The CARE family is a confederation of 12 national members providing humanitarian assistance in over 70 countries. CARE Australia has been a part of the CARE family from the time of our inception in 1987. Under the leadership of former Prime Minister Malcolm Fraser, we quickly established ourselves among the foremost of Australia's overseas aid organisations. Over the last 20 years, CARE Australia has been directly involved in emergency and relief projects in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Southeast Asia and the Pacific. The CARE family is not just the national members and the countries and people that we support. It is also the 14,000 staff around the world who devote themselves to performing CARE's work; they are highly valued and vital members of the family. I can not speak highly enough of the staff of CARE Australia, skilfully guided by our CEO, Robert Glasser. They contribute professionally and unstintingly, often operating in demanding and difficult circumstances. Then there are those who give generous support to our work, providing the CARE family with essential resources and encouragement. We are particularly grateful for the strong backing we receive from the Australian public, from corporate Australia, and also from the Australian Government's overseas aid programme, AusAID. Since CARE Australia's formation, there have been three Chairmen (Malcolm Fraser, Sir William Deane and myself). After serving in various positions with CARE International and CARE Australia, it was a great privilege to be invited to chair the Australian organisation. I am retiring as Chairman at the end of this year, and will be succeeded by our Vice Chairman, Peter Smedley. Peter is a prominent Australian businessman (among other roles, Chairman of OneSteel) and a contributor to diverse community activities. He has been closely involved with CARE over the past seven years, as founding Chairman of the CARE Australia Corporate Council, as a CARE Australia Board member, as our Vice Chairman and as a delegate to CARE International. He will provide strong and effective leadership for CARE Australia, and for our dedicated Board. Over the years, we have been fortunate to benefit from sound governance with distinguished Board members of the highest calibre. I also acknowledge the ongoing encouragement and support of Malcolm Fraser and the members of our Advisory Council (Sir William Deane, Sir Leslie Frogatt and Alf Paton). After 15 years as a member of the CARE family, I look forward to continuing my close association with CARE, and with our programmes that bring hope and assistance to the world's poorest and most disadvantaged people. Again, my thanks to those generous Australians who are the lifeblood of the CARE Australia family. Tony Eggleton 02 CARE Australia Annual Report 2006 CEO's message The past financial year (FY06) has been tremendously challenging and productive for CARE Australia. We responded to humanitarian emergencies in Africa, South Asia and closer to home in Timor-Leste, Indonesia and Papua New Guinea (PNG). In addition, our CARE Australia staff of more than 1000 people, based overseas and here in Australia, managed activities to reduce poverty in over 20 countries. I want to acknowledge the tremendous commitment, dedication and professionalism of our staff. They have done an outstanding job, often under extremely stressful circumstances. They have my utmost respect and my deepest gratitude. This Annual Report describes in detail some of our important work in less developed countries around the world. I would also, however, like to highlight two additional initiatives we have underway. The first is our ef- fort to reduce the risk of avian influenza (bird flu). If this virus develops the ability to spread efficiently among people, it has the potential to cause a massive increase in poverty in developing countries. CARE Australia has already played a leading role in addressing this issue, including co-sponsoring two major meetings on bird flu (with the Lowy Institute and Asialink respectively) and through our work to reduce the risk of bird flu in villages throughout Southeast Asia. The second initiative is the establishment of a new CARE Australia Country Office in PNG. PNG, Australia's nearest neighbour, confronts enormous development challenges, including a looming HIV/AIDS crisis. The new CARE Australia Country Office will position us to support PNG's responses to these development challenges. Last year we secured the PNG Prime Minister's endorsement of our plans to establish the office. We anticipate launching the new PNG Country Office in FY07. It is always gratifying when outside observers acknowledge our professionalism and effectiveness, particularly when the acknowledgement comes from one of our key development partners, the Australian Government's overseas aid programme, AusAID. This year, AusAID conducted its periodic review of CARE Australia's accreditation to receive AusAID funding. Following their rigorous examination of our financial, programmatic and fundraising systems, the AusAID review team not only recommended CARE Australia for full accreditation, but also complimented us on the high quality of our systems and procedures. , We often describe our staff and supporters as the 'CARE family. I want to note an important milestone for one key member of this family – our Chairman, Tony Eggleton. Tony is retiring as Chairman in November of this year and I wish to personally thank Tony for his tremendous support, encouragement and guidance. He has made a huge difference to our organisation. Fortunately, Tony will be very ably succeeded by Peter Smedley, our current Vice Chairman and a long-standing member of the CARE family. I very much look forward to working closely with Peter on the exciting agenda of initiatives we have planned in the coming years. I hope you enjoy reading about our work in the following pages of this Annual Report. If you already support CARE, the report provides some moving examples of the difference you have helped us make in so many people's lives. If you are not already a supporter, I hope you will be inspired to join us in providing lasting solutions to poverty.

The member nations of CARE International are Australia, Austria, Canada, Denmark, Germany, France, Japan, the Netherlands, Norway, Thailand, the United Kingdom and the United States of America. CARE facts * Active in over 70 countries * Reaches 45 million of the world's poorest people * Global staff of more than 14,000.

Over the last nine years over 90 per cent of our total income has been spent on our work in the field. The generous public support given to CARE Australia helps us secure additional funding from institutional donors such as the Australian Government, United Nations organisations and the European Union. CARE Australia accountability and accreditation CARE Australia is a signatory to the Australian Council for International Development (ACFID) Code of Conduct, which sets out standards on how organisations should be managed, how they communicate with the public and most importantly, how they spend the funds they raise. More information about the ACFID Code of Conduct can be obtained from CARE Australia and from ACFID at www.acfid.asn.au CARE Australia is also a signatory to the Code of Conduct of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement and Non-Governmental Organisations in Disaster Relief and the SPHERE Humanitarian Charter and Minimum Standards. CARE Australia holds full accreditation status with AusAID, the Australian Government's overseas aid programme. Achieving accreditation entails a rigorous review of CARE's systems and capacities. It reflects the Government's confidence in CARE Australia's professionalism, accountability and effectiveness. CARE Australia and VIDA This year CARE Australia entered into a new partnership with VIDA (Volunteering for International Development from Australia). VIDA places skilled Australian volunteers in developing countries in the Asia Pacific region. VIDA volunteers work with local counterparts to reduce poverty and achieve sustainable development in the communities in which they work.

US officials have said the administration has quietly sent around $572m in aid to Egypt some 10 days ago, after Congress finally approved its release, AFP has reported. The funds are the first tranche of some $1.5bn in mostly military aid, which has been frozen since October amid US administration demands that the Egyptian government introduce democratic reforms.

It's obvious to Eli Laughlin that Victoria Anderson has misrepresented herself. But the hardheaded rancher doesn't care. When he advertised for a wife with ranching experience, he never expected to land anyone as intoxicatingly lovely as Tori. Now he's having fun watching her try to bluff her way through ranch work.
The prenup has given them a month to get acquainted before finalizing their marriage. But Eli's having a hell of a time reining in his desire. And whatever Tori's hiding seems inconsequential when every cell of his body aches to make Tori his wife for the long-term.
USA Today Bestselling Author, Kathie DeNosky, writes highly emotional stories laced with a good dose of humor. Kathie lives in her native southern Illinois and loves writing at night while listening to country music on her favorite radio station.

You can't touch this like Hamm and them
from Jay Electronica (Ft. Tone Treasure) – Victory Is In My Clutches Lyrics on Genius
Double Entendre?
Referring to William Shakespeare's work, Hamlet , where Hamlet, Claudius and Laertes all die because they all touched poisoned objects, meaning we can't touch Jay Electronica and that we're as good as dead…
Jay is a Muslim, and Muslims typically don't even touch pork, so this meaning connects with the Hamlet reference.
Hamm = MC Hammer who had a hit with the single 'U Can't Touch This' (1990)
