2011 Annual Report | Krishnamurti Foundation of America | www.kfa.org | pages 2-3

This past year, the Krishnamurti Foundation of America went through a time of deep self-reflection. Over the past three years we have had several key staff members retire, seen the passing of many longtime members of the Foundation, and, like so many non-profits across the country, endured economic uncertainty. We found ourselves in a new time, with many new faces—new program participants, new staff and new trustees. The Board became deeply involved with the daily workings of the Foundation—re-evaluating programs, enlisting the perspective of an outside consultant, questioning the purpose of each of our projects. Some difficult decisions were made—budgets and staff were downsized wherever necessary.

In spite of the many changes we have seen extraordinary growth. In many ways, we have grown back to ourselves, simplifying our work to the core of our mission—to disseminate and preserve the teachings of Jiddu Krishnamurti. How did we accomplish that this year? In fiscal year 2010-11, in addition to the students, faculty, parents and staff of Oak Grove School, we had:

• 2,600 people actively participating on Ning—the Krishnamurti social networking site and almost 5,000 in the KFA Forum.

• 10,000 monthly visitors to our website KFA.org.

• 80 plus participants at our May Gathering.

• 70,000 visits to the Foundations’ Teachings website, jkrishnamurti.org, (with 35,000 unique visitors from 177 countries, mostly the North America, India, Europe and Brazil), 40% of those being new visits.

James Paul

KFA Board of Trustee Chair

• 2,250 guests at the Pepper Tree Retreat from every corner of the world.

• 10,000 books, DVDs and CDs sold, with new contracts for books leading to the printing of about 300,000. Fifty-nine new foreign books published, primarily from China (22) and Korea (15).

• Thirty known dialogue groups around the country that publicize themselves on our site.

• 275 participants in our onsite programs, including the summer and winter study intensive and retreat, now in its seventh year.

• Dozens of participants in the Teaching Academy, in its sixth year in Ojai and now also in Thailand, England, Switzerland, Germany, India (Chennai, Bombay, Sahyadri, and Rishi Valley).

Please know that we could not disseminate and preserve the teachings without your support. The Krishnamurti Foundation of America is a nonprofit charity and relies on the support of donors. Each of our current board trustees is an active donor as are each of our staff members. Peruse the listing of donors in this report and you will understand the number of people it takes to make this work possible.

The Dautch Family

Donor Profile

The Dautch Family has been a major part of Oak Grove School for more than two decades. In addition to being steadfast financial supporters, parents Elizabeth (Liz) Pretz-inger-Dautch and Robert (BD) Dautch have volunteered end-less hours serving on commit-tees, hosting events, providing fresh and organic produce for our lunch program, and acting as chaperones on annual ski trips, proms, as well as the senior trip to India. Currently, BD serves on the Board of Trustees of the Krishnamurti Foundation of America. All four of their musically talented children have mastered classical instruments and performed in the Santa Bar-bara Youth Symphony for many years. Eldest son Leif, class of 2003, earned his BA in Ethics, Politics and Economics from Yale followed by his law degree from Harvard. He’s currently com-pleting a clerkship on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco, and will start working at Cravath, Swaine, and Moore later this Fall. Chloe, class of 2009, is in her third year at Middle-bury College where she majors in International Politics and Economics and Arabic. She will be spending her fall semester in Aman Jordan. Daughter Elissa will be a sophomore next year and plans to continue serving on the student council and competitively playing volleyball, soccer and swimming. Younger son Ian will begin the sixth grade this fall and will continue with his pursuits in swimming, water polo, and soccer. According to Karen Hesli, KFA Trustee and longtime Oak Grove staff, “For over two decades Liz and BD have demonstrated over and again their apprecia-tion for the school’s teachers and children. They have participated tirelessly to support holistic learning; and their innumerable contributions have enhanced the whole spectrum of the campus and school, from camping, sports and travel programs to staff and parent development, financial aid, and the arts.” The Dautch Family is deeply embedded in the heart of the Oak Grove School.

And when you have that love you can put away all your sacred books, all your gods. And you have to put away your sacred books, your gods, your everyday ambitions, to come upon that love. That is the only sacred thing there is. And to come upon it, goodness must flower. Goodness can only flower in freedom, not in tradition. The world needs change, you need tremendous revolution (not economic, Communist, bloody revolution that man has tried throughout history, that has only led him to more misery). But we do need fundamental, psychological revolution, and this revolution is order. And order is peace; and this order, with its virtue and peace, can only come about when you come directly into contact with disorder in your daily life. Then out of that blossoms goodness and then there will be no seeking anymore. For that which is, is sacred.”

– J. Krishnamurti, Madras, January 14, 1968
