ADF's budget is funded through annual U.S. government appropriations for foreign operations, and it is governed by a board of directors that includes seven members who are nominated by the President of the United States and confirmed by the United States Senate. In 2005, the Office of Management and Budget rated ADF's programs fully "effective" under its Performance Assessment Rating Tool (PART) program, an efficiency recognition that has been accorded to less than 10 percent of United States Government grantmaking programs. ADF receives most of its programming resources from the United States Government, but it has also established strategic partnerships with African governments and private corporations to leverage the impact of its federal funding. ADF currently operates in Angola, Benin, Botswana, Cape Verde, Ghana, Guinea, Mali, Namibia, Niger, Nigeria, Rwanda, Senegal, Swaziland, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia. The Foundation announced in April 2006 that it will also reinitiate program operations in Liberia. |
