Under Dr. Shah’s leadership, USAID applied innovative technologies and engaged the private sector to solve the world’s most intractable development challenges. This new model of development brings together an increasingly diverse community—from large companies to local civil society groups to communities of faith—to deliver meaningful results.

14 An Olympic-Size Fundraising Challenge! My Fellow Advocates, As a volunteer and donor, I find my RESULTS participation, both financial and as a board member, to be one of the most rewarding things I do. As grassroots volunteers we have the privilege of playing a pivotal role in ensuring that RESULTS has the resources that allow it to do its work, including supporting us as advocates. The Road to Rio fundraising campaign reminded me how critical each of our role is and that my voice can change the world, and increase the value of your efforts! Therefore, I am issuing a challenge for us all: From May 14th - June 26th, if we can collectively raise $35,000 through the Road to Rio Friends & Family campaign, my wife, Sapna Mahwal, and I will match it with another $15,000 contribution to RESULTS. I hope you all will join me in raising the funds RESULTS requires to power its work as we take on the Road to Rio! If we can hit our fundraising goal together, we know that the resources will facilitate directing billions of dollars to the programs making the biggest difference in our world. It’s up to us to ensure that nobody lives on less than $1.25 a day after 2030, rather than poverty persisting, as it always has. I’ve already started my own campaign online and I hope you will join me by creating your page here: www.tinyurl.com/2016R2Rwww.tinyurl.com/2016R2R With gratitude and appreciation, Pankaj Pankaj Agarwal Managing Director ReCubed Consulting Personal Email: resultsrio@pankaj.caresultsrio@pankaj.ca June 2016 RESULTS National Conference Call/Webinar Slides 16

35 June Laser Talk: Call on Foreign Affairs Leadership to Move the Reach Act June 2016 RESULTS National Conference Call/Webinar Slides 21 Engage: Last year UNICEF announced that we’ve saved 50 million children’s lives since 2000. Problem: Yet, 5.9 million children still die each year from mostly preventable causes. Inform on the solution: We can end preventable maternal and child deaths by 2035 if we act now. 151 representatives, including 59 Republicans, have already cosponsored the Reach Every Mother and Child Act (H.R. 3706). Call to action: We have a critical mass in the House. Will you please speak to the Chair and the Ranking Member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, Rep. Ed Royce (R-CA) and Eliot Engel (D-NY), and ask them to prioritize moving the Reach Act this year?
