4a (Code:   ) (Expenses $ 145,216,277 including grants of $ 79,075,348 ) (Revenue $ 362,971 )
Economic Opportunities: Mercy Corps helps increase economic opportunities and ensures people can grow and sustain their assets and income, making markets more efficient, profitable and accessible for systemically marginalized groups and those living in poverty. To increase economic opportunity, Mercy Corps strengthens financial ecosystems, develops tech-enabled solutions, facilitates the creation of and access to jobs that are profitable, dignified, and safe, and foster opportunities for sustainable and productive economic growth that mitigates the impact of climate change. This year, Mercy Corps reached over 19 million people through over 130 programs across 38 countries working to increase economic opportunity.
4b (Code:   ) (Expenses $ 91,538,930 including grants of $ 49,846,153 ) (Revenue $ 228,803 )
Humanitarian Assistance - relief: Mercy Corps helps people most impacted by conflict and climate change cope, adapt and thrive, supporting millions facing natural and man-made disasters by providing support such as food, clean water, shelter and basic hygiene to help them cope in the midst of conflict, natural disasters and weather-related incidents. Mercy Corps helps communities prepare for and respond to humanitarian needs as they arise, while supporting recovery and laying the foundations for resilience even in the most extreme humanitarian situations. This year, Mercy Corps provided humanitarian assistance to millions facing acute and protracted emergencies around the world, including in Sudan, Gaza, Haiti - reaching 37.6 million people across programs.
4c (Code:   ) (Expenses $ 61,714,445 including grants of $ 33,605,676 ) (Revenue $ 154,256 )
Peace and good governance (Civil society and education): Mercy Corps supports people and communities to reduce and prevent violence, contribute to advancing sustainable peace, and participating meaningfully in civil society and inclusive and responsive governance systems. By sequencing, layering, and integrating our peace, humanitarian, and development assistance, we help advance peace and promote inclusive, responsive governance processes, that enable communities - and the most marginalized within them - to cope, adapt, and thrive. This year, Mercy Corps reached over 14 million people with peace and good governance programs across 29 countries.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 33,735,393 including grants of $ 18,370,103 ) (Revenue $ 84,323 )
Health - Water and Food Security: In the midst of conflict and climate change, both of which pose significant risks to health, Mercy Corps works to improve health outcomes by ensuring access to safe and nutritious food and clean and safe water. Mercy Corps meets urgent food needs while also building more inclusive and resilient food systems, minimizing the impacts of food crises on households, preventing the destabilization of food systems during conflict and natural disasters, and increasing the resilience of food systems to climate change. This year, Mercy Corps reached nearly 17 million people across over 100 programs working to improve food security in 37 countries. Mercy Corps works to ensure people have equitable and sustained access to clean and safe water as climate change, poor water governance, inadequate water management and inequitable control of resources deepen water insecurity. Whether responding to immediate water and sanitation needs in an emergency by providing access to lifesaving water, sanitation and hygiene services, or overseeing large-scale water infrastructure projects and fostering equitable and inclusive water governance processes, Mercy Corps strengthens the capacity of communities and the water systems they rely on. This year, Mercy Corps reached over 8 million people across 71 programs advancing water security in 29 countries.
(Code:   ) (Expenses $ 30,026,200 including grants of $ 16,350,317 ) (Revenue $ 75,051 )
Humanitarian Assistance - Recovery: Mercy Corps supports communities - and the most marginalized within them - to emerge from crisis and build towards a more inclusive, resilient future. During and in the aftermath of conflict and climate-driven crises, Mercy Corps works to help people recover, thrive and build resilience, enhancing the capacities of people, markets, and institutions to handle shocks, reduce risk, build more equitable and responsive systems, and improve wellbeing. In the context of post-crisis recovery, we focus on systems-level change aimed at strengthening local governance, economic, ecological, and social systems that communities rely on.

Return Reference Explanation
Schedule D, Part IV, Line 2b Explanation of escrow agreement Mercy Corps is a custodial agent of donations received by Mercy Corps on behalf of a trust created for the benefit of a woman in Pakistan. The funds received are for her use and recorded as a liability on Mercy Corps books.
Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 (ASC 740) footnote The Organization had been granted tax-exempt status under Section 501 (c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and corresponding sections of the state of Washington provisions as a publicly supported organization, which is not a private foundation. U.S. GAAP requires Mercy Corps' management to evaluate tax positions taken by Mercy Corps and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if Mercy Corps has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Management has analyzed tax positions taken by Mercy Corps and has concluded that as of June 30, 2024, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of liability (or asset) or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements. Mercy Corps is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no IRS audits for any tax period.

ReturnReference Explanation
Schedule F, Part I, Line 2 Procedures for monitoring use of grant funds Sub-grantees are selected either through a request for application process or included in program proposal designed based on the sub-grantees technical merits and cost criteria included in the program description. All sub-recipients are issued a sub-grant agreement that outlines the approved program description, approved budget, reporting requirements, and relevant regulations. Prior to issuing a sub-grant agreement, the frequency of financial and programmatic reporting and level of supporting documentation to submit is determined, depending on the size and sophistication of the sub-grant/sub-recipient and their experience with prime donor funding. The finance department will review the financial reports against the approved budget and regulation to confirm that expenditures are allowable. Generally, for smaller, first-time recipients, copies or originals of supporting documentation are submitted and reviewed in-country by the finance department. For mid-size sub-grants familiar with MC and donor requirements, managers will do periodic site visits to audit the supporting documents against the financial reports. For larger sub-grants, mostly other US-based organizations, finance managers review their A-133 audits and retain the right to access their financial records. The financial report must then be reviewed by the department responsible for the programmatic aspects of the sub-recipient to ensure that the sub-recipient is performing the activities per the sub-grant agreement.

Return Reference Explanation
Form 990, Part III, Line 4d Description of other program services (Expenses $ 33,735,393 including grants of $ 18,370,103)(Revenue $ 84,323) Health - Water and Food Security: In the midst of conflict and climate change, both of which pose significant risks to health, Mercy Corps works to improve health outcomes by ensuring access to safe and nutritious food and clean and safe water. Mercy Corps meets urgent food needs while also building more inclusive and resilient food systems, minimizing the impacts of food crises on households, preventing the destabilization of food systems during conflict and natural disasters, and increasing the resilience of food systems to climate change. This year, Mercy Corps reached nearly 17 million people across over 100 programs working to improve food security in 37 countries. Mercy Corps works to ensure people have equitable and sustained access to clean and safe water as climate change, poor water governance, inadequate water management and inequitable control of resources deepen water insecurity. Whether responding to immediate water and sanitation needs in an emergency by providing access to lifesaving water, sanitation and hygiene services, or overseeing large-scale water infrastructure projects and fostering equitable and inclusive water governance processes, Mercy Corps strengthens the capacity of communities and the water systems they rely on. This year, Mercy Corps reached over 8 million people across 71 programs advancing water security in 29 countries.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4d Description of other program services (Expenses $ 30,026,200 including grants of $ 16,350,317)(Revenue $ 75,051) Humanitarian Assistance - Recovery: Mercy Corps supports communities - and the most marginalized within them - to emerge from crisis and build towards a more inclusive, resilient future. During and in the aftermath of conflict and climate-driven crises, Mercy Corps works to help people recover, thrive and build resilience, enhancing the capacities of people, markets, and institutions to handle shocks, reduce risk, build more equitable and responsive systems, and improve wellbeing. In the context of post-crisis recovery, we focus on systems-level change aimed at strengthening local governance, economic, ecological, and social systems that communities rely on.

At the regularly scheduled Board of Directors meeting following the submission, the Audit Committee, the CEO or the CFAO presents the highlights of the 990 to the board and the board votes on a resolution ratifying the Audit Committee's approval of the 990. if Issues are identified at any point, the 990 is sent back to the previous step to ensure the issues are resolved and appropriate changes are made. For example, if the Audit Committee finds an unresolved issue during its review, the Audit Committee will request that the CFAO resolve the issue before the Audit Committee will vote on a resolution approving the 990.
