Explanation
Governing Body and management
Part VI, Line 2 Irwin Rosenthal and Suzanne Rosenthal, co-founders of the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America, Inc., have a family relationship.
Process used to review form 990
Part VI, section B, Line 11 The Form 990 was prepared by a national accounting firm in conjunction with the organization's finance department. A copy of the draft form 990 was circulated and reviewed with the Chair of the Audit and Finance Committee members for discussion and comment. A full copy of the 990 is distributed to all Board of Trustees prior to filing.
Conflict of Interest Policy Monitoring & Enforcement
Part VI, Section B, Line 12 Each officer, director, trustee and key employee of the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation of America, Inc. ("CCFA") is required to annually disclose any conflicts of interest that arise by virtue of employment, board service, or position with CCFA. CCFA monitors compliance with its conflict of interest policy through an annual questionnaire/disclosure statement that is distributed to these individuals. Potential conflicts are investigated immediately.
Process for determining compensation
Part VI, section B, Line 15 The Crohn's & Colitis Foundation is dependent on experienced and qualified leadership to achieve its goals. Factors such as annual gross revenues, geographic locations, tenure, mission and other factors help determine senior leadership compensation. The President's compensation is determined on an annual basis by the Chairman of the Board using guidelines and comparability data provided in National Compensation Studies of Chief Staff Executives. The Foundation hired an independent compensation consultant to review and validate the compensation it pays its employees. CCFA anticipates that the consultant will continue the Foundation's policy of relying on benchmarking surveys and other industry data to compare the salaries CCFA pays to its employees with compensation paid to employees of other not for profit organizations of similar size.
Availability of documents to the public
part vi, section C, line 19 The taxpayer makes its Form 990 available to the public by retaining a copy at its place of business and on its website at www.ccfa.org. The Form 990 is likewise published on the internet at www.guidestar.org. The organization's financial statements are posted on its website. Governing documents and conflict of interest policy are not ordinarily made available to the public, but if requested, will be provided at management's discretion.
Contributions
Part VIII, line 1g, Noncash contributions The Crohn's & Colitis Foundation of America, Inc. ("CCFA") has utilized the services of Car Program, Inc., an organization that receives donated vehicles, sells them and remits the net proceeds to several charitable organizations. The vehicles are not donated directly to CCFA nor does CCFA have ownership rights to them. In 2013, CCFA received $29,017 in revenues from this program. Additionally, CCFA receives considerable in-kind contributions in the form of donated public service announcements on television and radio statements and services received from physicians and health professionals that have made significant contributions of their time in furtherance of CCFA's programs. The fair value of such in-kind contributions is reflected in the statement of activities as contributed services and airtime revenue and health professional education and public information program service expense. Since donated services are not reported on the Form 990, CCFA has not reported the contributed services and airtime on Schedule M or Part VIII, line 1(G). For the year ending December 31, 2013, contributed services and airtime amounted to $11,277,878. Form 990, Part XI, Line 9 Other changes in net assets Changes in Gift Annuities and Remainder Trust Valuations - $36,128
