FINANCIAL SUPPORT
Sabre Foundation depends largely for annual program support on
grant-making private foundations, associations, corporations,
individual gifts and government awards. In addition to financial
donations, it benefits greatly from services contributed in-kind and at
reduced rates, both in the U.S. and overseas.
Individual donors and private associations continued to furnish an
important component of Sabre's funding, especially in areas not covered
by foundation and government guidelines.

Below: Views of the devastation at the Centre and its two
libraries--including the American Studies Library--where
more than 25,000 books were destroyed by fire after mortar
shelling in December 1991. The Centre, founded two decades
ago, had over 240 university members from more than 40
countries and offered interdisciplinary postgraduate
studies in the humanities, social studies, natural sciences,
medicine and technology. The Centre's sponsors have undertaken
to rebuild the facilities, and to restore its work in
international cooperation.

Note to our readers: For accounting purposes, donations in-kind are
recorded as expended in the same fiscal year that they are received.
As the donated books may not be re-sold, they hold no commercial value
for Sabre Foundation, and are therefore not carried as inventory in our
audited financial statements. The fair market value (FMV) of the
actual inventory on hand on January 1, 1994, was $6,927,892;
allocations during 1994 were valued at $9,847,361; and the FMV of
inventory on December 31, 1994, was $7,332,110.
