Return Reference Explanation
PART IV, LINE 2B: AGENCY FUNDS INCLUDE AMOUNTS HELD BY THE JEWISH FEDERATION OF GREATER PITTSBURGH FOR VARIOUS JEWISH COMMUNITY AGENCIES THAT ARE POOLED WITH OTHER FEDERATION FUNDS FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES AND INCLUDES AMOUNTS FROM DONORS WITH A STIPULATED BENEFICIARY.
PART V, LINE 4: THE FEDERATION'S ENDOWMENT CONSISTS OF VARIOUS INVESTMENT FUNDS ESTABLISHED PRIMARILY FOR SUPPORT OF THE FEDERATION'S MISSION. ITS ENDOWMENT INCLUDES DONOR-RESTRICTED AS WELL AS BOARD-DESIGNATED ENDOWMENT FUNDS. AS REQUIRED BY GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES, NET ASSETS ASSOCIATED WITH ENDOWMENT FUNDS, INCLUDING FUNDS DESIGNATED BY THE FEDERATION TO FUNCTION AS ENDOWMENTS, ARE CLASSIFIED AND REPORTED BASED ON THE EXISTENCE OR ABSENCE OF DONOR-IMPOSED RESTRICTIONS. THE BOARD OF THE FEDERATION HAS ELECTED TO BE GOVERNED BY PROVISIONS OF ACT 141, WHICH PERMITS A TOTAL RETURN POLICY ALLOWING A NONPROFIT TO CHOOSE TO TREAT A PERCENTAGE OF THE AVERAGE MARKET VALUE OF THE ENDOWMENT'S PERMANENTLY RESTRICTED INVESTMENTS AS INCOME EACH YEAR. PENNSYLVANIA LAW PERMITS A PERCENTAGE NOT LESS THAN 2% AND NOT MORE THAN 7%. HOWEVER, THE LONG-TERM PRESERVATION OF THE REAL VALUE OF THE ASSETS MUST BE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN THE BOARD ELECTS THE AMOUNT. IN ACCORDANCE WITH ACT 141, THE FEDERATION ANNUALLY TRANSFERS THE APPROVED SPENDING RATE OF THE PREVIOUS THREE YEARS' MARKET VALUE AVERAGE OF THE ENDOWMENT FUND OR OTHER SPENDING PROVISIONS BY THE DONOR. THIS PERCENTAGE IS APPLIED TO A THREE YEAR AVERAGE MARKET VALUE OF THE INVESTMENTS AT DECEMBER 31ST OF THE PREVIOUS YEAR. THE FEDERATION CLASSIFIES AS PERMANENTLY RESTRICTED NET ASSETS THE ORIGINAL VALUE OF GIFTS DONATED TO THE PERMANENT ENDOWMENT. EARNINGS ON THESE GIFTS ARE ACCUMULATED IN TEMPORARILY RESTRICTED NET ASSETS. THE FEDERATION CONSIDERS THE FOLLOWING FACTORS IN MAKING A DETERMINATION TO SET A SPENDING RATE: 1. PROTECTING THE CORPUS OF THE ENDOWMENT FUND. 2. PRESERVING THE SPENDING POWER OF THE ASSETS. 3. OBTAINING MAXIMUM INVESTMENT RETURN WITH REASONABLE RISK AND OPERATIONAL CONSIDERATION. 4. COMPLYING WITH APPLICABLE LAWS AND DONOR RESTRICTIONS.
PART X, LINE 2: THE FEDERATION IS A TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE (IRC) AND IS ALSO CLASSIFIED AS AN ENTITY THAT IS NOT A PRIVATE FOUNDATION. THE FEDERATION FOLLOWS THE CODIFICATION TOPIC ON INCOME TAXES. THE TOPIC PRESCRIBES A MINIMUM RECOGNITION THRESHOLD AND MEASUREMENT METHODOLOGY THAT A TAX POSITION TAKEN OR EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN IN A TAX RETURN IS REQUIRED TO MEET BEFORE BEING RECOGNIZED IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE FEDERATION CLASSIFIES INTEREST AND PENALTIES AS TAX EXPENSE, IF INCURRED. THE FEDERATION'S COMBINED STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL POSITION AT JUNE 30, 2016 AND 2015 DO NOT INCLUDE ANY LIABILITIES ASSOCIATED WITH UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS; FURTHER, THE FEDERATION HAS NO UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFITS. THE FEDERATION BELIEVES THAT IT IS NO LONGER SUBJECT TO EXAMINATION OF ITS TAX RETURNS FOR YEARS BEFORE 2013.
PART XI, LINE 2D - OTHER ADJUSTMENTS: CHANGE IN VALUE OF SPLIT INTEREST AGREEMENTS 22,391.
PART XI, LINE 4B - OTHER ADJUSTMENTS: INTERAGENCY RECLASS 927,642.
PART XII, LINE 4B - OTHER ADJUSTMENTS: INTERAGENCY RECLASS 927,642. CONTRIBUTION NOT RECORDED ON AFS 177,994.

AGENCIES PROVIDE REGULAR FINANCIAL REPORTS (AUDITED FINANCIALS, MONTHLY STATEMENTS) AS WELL AS AGENCY-SPECIFIC DOCUMENTATION (E.G., ACCREDITATION APPLICATIONS, CLIENT SATISFACTION SURVEYS, ETC.) AS APPROPRIATE. ANNUALLY, FEDERATION STAFF COMPILES INFORMATION ABOUT AGENCY ACTIVITIES FOR REVIEW BY FEDERATION VOLUNTEER LEADERSHIP TO INFORM FUTURE GRANT MAKING. FOR OTHER FORMS OF FEDERATION GRANT MAKING, REPORTING PROCEDURES VARY BASED ON THE FUNDING PROGRAM, AND THE SIZE AND NATURE OF THE GRANT. IN ALL CASES, RECIPIENT ELIGIBILITY (E.G., 501(C)(3) STATUS IS EVALUATED.) WHERE APPLICABLE, PERFORMANCE ON PAST FUNDING IS ASSESSED. FEDERATION GRANT PROGRAMS REQUIRE RECIPIENTS TO PROVIDE FINAL REPORTS (AND IN SOME CASES, INTERIM REPORTS) THAT DEMONSTRATE QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE PROGRESS ON STATED OUTCOMES.

FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1, DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION MISSION: THE VISION OF THE JEWISH FEDERATION OF GREATER PITTSBURGH IS A THRIVING, VIBRANT, AND ENGAGED JEWISH COMMUNITY. IN ORDER TO ACCOMPLISH THIS VISION WE RAISE AND ALLOCATE FUNDS AND BUILD COMMUNITY LOCALLY, IN ISRAEL, AND AROUND THE WORLD. THE JEWISH FEDERATION OF GREATER PITTSBURGH WILL BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THE MOST BENEFIT TO OUR COMMUNITY ONLY IF WE ARE TRUE TO THE FOLLOWING CORE VALUES: 1. WE ARE GUIDED BY THE TEACHINGS OF TORAH INCLUDING, TIKKUN OLAM (REPAIRING THE WORLD), TZEDAKAH (JUSTICE), CHESED (KINDNESS) AND K'LAL YISRAEL (PEOPLEHOOD). 2. WE AIM TO SUSTAIN AND MEANINGFULLY GROW JEWISH IDENTITY, LEADERSHIP & INVOLVEMENT IN OUR COMMUNITY. 3. OUR WORK WILL BE CARRIED OUT WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF COOPERATION AND INCLUSIVENESS. 4. WE RECOGNIZE THE IMPORTANCE OF WORKING IN CONCERT WITH OTHERS. 5. WE RECOGNIZE THE HUMAN DIGNITY OF EVERY INDIVIDUAL IN THE COMMUNITY. 6. WE CARE ABOUT BUILDING A STRONG SENSE OF COMMUNITY WITH PURPOSE AND INVOLVEMENT. 7. WE WILL ESTABLISH PRIORITIES TO ACCOMPLISH OUR VISION AND MISSION. 8. WE VALUE THE BELIEFS AND OPINIONS OF ALL MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY.
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A FINANCIAL RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT THE JEWISH FEDERATION ENGAGES A BROAD CROSS SECTION OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS IN RAISING AND DISTRIBUTING FUNDS. BY BRINGING A WEALTH OF VIEWPOINTS AND EXPERTISE TO THESE EFFORTS, WE WORK TO ENSURE THAT THE PROGRAMS AND INSTITUTIONS THAT ENRICH OUR JEWISH COMMUNITY REMAIN VIBRANT AND STRONG. THE JEWISH FEDERATION IS THE LARGEST JEWISH GRANT-MAKING ORGANIZATION IN OUR COMMUNITY, HELPING PEOPLE AT HOME, IN ISRAEL, AND AROUND THE WORLD. THE FEDERATION'S ANNUAL CAMPAIGN AND JEWISH COMMUNITY FOUNDATION EMBODY THE VALUES AND TRADITIONS OF OUR JEWISH COMMUNITY. IT SAYS THAT WE - AS A COMMUNITY - ADDRESS CRITICAL NEEDS TODAY AND POSITION OURSELVES TO MEET CHANGING NEEDS IN THE FUTURE. THE JEWISH FEDERATION EXPANDED ITS PLANNING EFFORTS, FINDING NEW WAYS TO DO WHAT THE ORGANIZATION DOES BEST: FINDING SOLUTIONS TO COMPLEX PROBLEMS THAT REQUIRE BROAD COMMUNITY SUPPORT. THESE SOLUTIONS CONTINUE TO UNCOVER WAYS TO LEVERAGE OUR COLLECTIVE POWER: UNITING HUMAN SERVICE AGENCIES THROUGH AGEWELL PITTSBURGH, WHICH HELPS AGING ADULTS STAY INDEPENDENT; REACHING OUT TO HELP THROUGH THE JEWISH FEDERATION VOLUNTEER CENTER, WHICH MOBILIZES THOUSANDS OF VOLUNTEERS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR; AND THROUGH PARTNERSHIP2GETHER CONNECTING PITTSBURGHERS TO OUR SISTER REGION IN ISRAEL, KARMIEL-MISGAV, TO NURTURE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, HUMAN SERVICES AND JEWISH-ARAB COEXISTENCE. THANKS TO THE SUPPORT OF 4,150 DONORS AND A GENEROUS $170,000 DOLLAR-FOR-DOLLAR MATCHING GRANT FROM THE GIANT EAGLE FOUNDATION, THE JEWISH FEDERATION OF GREATER PITTSBURGH RAISED $13.65 MILLION FOR THE ANNUAL CAMPAIGN. PARTICIPATION IN THE STATE'S EDUCATIONAL IMPROVEMENT TAX CREDIT PROGRAM SECURED MORE THAN $3.4 MILLION TO SUPPORT JEWISH DAY SCHOOLS AND PRESCHOOLS, A DECLINE FROM LAST YEAR DUE TO LOWER TAX LIABILITY FOR SOME DONORS, STATE BUDGET DELAYS AND THE SALE OF A LARGE CORPORATE DONOR. THE JEWISH HEALTHCARE FOUNDATION (JHF) CONTRIBUTED A $900,000 BLOCK GRANT FOR SOCIAL SERVICES. TWO SIGNIFICANT NEW INITIATIVES WERE: - BRIDGES, A VERY SUCCESSFUL NEW SERIES OF EVENTS FOR PROFESSIONAL WOMEN, PROVIDING NETWORKING AND EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES. - POWER OF WOMEN (POW!), A CITY-WIDE VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY FOR WOMEN AND A NEW WAY TO INTRODUCE JEWISH WOMEN TO WOMEN'S PHILANTHROPY. THE YOUNG ADULT DIVISION (YAD) AND ITS OUTREACH ARM SHALOM PITTSBURGH HELD MORE THAN 35 SUCCESSFUL EVENTS THIS YEAR SERVING 2500 PARTICIPANTS, INCLUDING SEVERAL POPULAR EVENTS FROM PRIOR YEARS AND THE NEW JEWISH HISTORY HAPPY HOURS, PRESENTED WITH THE HOLOCAUST CENTER OF PITTSBURGH AND THE RAUH JEWISH HISTORY PROGRAM & ARCHIVES; BOO BREWS WITH THE JEWS, A THRILLER-THEMED NIGHT THAT INCLUDED PIZZA, BEER AND A MOVIE; AND FOR YOUNG FAMILIES, PANCAKES BEFORE PASSOVER IN COLLABORATION WITH PJ LIBRARY, A PROGRAM ADMINISTERED LOCALLY BY THE JEWISH COMMUNITY CENTER OF GREATER PITTSBURGH. THIS YEAR, ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT IN THE JEWISH COMMUNITY FOUNDATION REACHED NEARLY $219 MILLION. THIS AMOUNT REPRESENTS AN INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF FUNDS BUT A DECREASE OF 3% IN TOTAL FUND VALUE. THIS DECREASE WAS DUE TO RECORD DISTRIBUTIONS AND DECLINING INVESTMENT VALUE. THE FOUNDATION ADDED ALMOST 100 NEW FUNDS, INCLUDING THREE NEW LION OF JUDAH ENDOWMENT FUNDS, BRINGING THE TOTAL NUMBER OF FUNDS TO 1,277. THE FOUNDATION ADDED $18.8 MILLION IN NEW DOLLARS. THE FOUNDATION MADE GRANTS, FROM ITS UNRESTRICTED ENDOWMENT, TOTALING ALMOST $786,000. THE CENTENNIAL FUND FOR A JEWISH FUTURE DISTRIBUTED MORE THAN $624,000 TO SUPPORT JEWISH LEARNING AND ENGAGEMENT. TAKEN TOGETHER WITH DISTRIBUTIONS FROM RESTRICTED ENDOWMENTS, DONOR-ADVISED FUNDS, CAMPAIGN ENDOWMENTS, AND SYNAGOGUE AND AGENCY FUNDS, FOUNDATION DISTRIBUTIONS TOTALED $16.8 MILLION, AN INCREASE OF $3.3 MILLION OVER THE PRIOR YEAR. FOUNDATION PROGRAMS INCLUDED A SCHOLAR-IN-RESIDENCE PROGRAM, WHICH MADE THE TEACHING OF AN ENGAGING SCHOLAR ACCESSIBLE TO ADULT LEARNERS IN PITTSBURGH AND ENHANCED THE JEWISH CONTEXT OF JEWISH FEDERATION PROGRAMS; AN ALLOCATION FOR A COMMUNITY STUDY, THE FIRST IN PITTSBURGH IN MORE THAN 15 YEARS; THE RELAUNCH OF THE JEWISH CHRONICLE AS A WIDELY DISTRIBUTED FREE JEWISH NEWSPAPER WITH ENHANCED ONLINE PRESENCE AND CONTENT; A LEARNING INNOVATION COACH TO SUPPORT COMMUNITY DAY SCHOOL (CDS) EDUCATORS IN INTEGRATING QUALITY STEM (SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING AND MATH) PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES INTO CDS CLASSROOMS; A NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED NINE-MONTH ADULT LEARNING PROGRAM; AND EXPANSION OF PROGRAMS FOR WOMEN INCLUDING THE CENTER FOR WOMEN INTERNSHIP AND JOB SHADOWING PROGRAM OF THE LOCAL CHAPTER OF THE NATIONAL COUNCIL OF JEWISH WOMEN AND THE WOMAN2WOMAN TOASTMASTERS CLUB, FOR WOMEN RETURNING TO THE WORKFORCE. COMMUNITY BUILDING THE FEDERATION HAS A 100-YEAR HISTORY OF INVESTING IN JEWISH COMMUNAL NEEDS ACROSS PITTSBURGH. BY PROVIDING ESSENTIAL OPERATING FUNDING, LEADING COMMUNITY-WIDE PLANNING EFFORTS, FOSTERING PARTNERSHIPS, AND SUPPORTING BEST BUSINESS PRACTICES, THE FEDERATION WORKS TO ENSURE THAT A NETWORK OF HIGH-QUALITY AGENCIES AND PROGRAMS ARE IN PLACE TO MEET THE CHALLENGING AND CHANGING NEEDS OF THE GREATER PITTSBURGH COMMUNITY. THROUGH ITS DEVELOPMENT EFFORTS, ENCOMPASSING THE ANNUAL CAMPAIGN, THE JEWISH COMMUNITY FOUNDATION AND VARIOUS OTHER MEANS OF RAISING FUNDS, THE FEDERATION SUPPORTS A VAST RANGE OF COMMUNITY PROGRAMS AND SERVICES. THE FEDERATION'S COMMUNITY BUILDING AREA EXPANDED MANY PROGRAMS IN 2015-2016 AND PLANNED AREAS THAT WILL PRODUCE COMMUNITY-WIDE BENEFITS IN THE NEAR FUTURE.
