      <MissionDesc>FOR OVER FOUR DECADES, THE CROHN'S &amp; COLITIS FOUNDATION ("CCFA") HAS BEEN DEDICATED TO ITS MISSION OF FINDING A CURE FOR CROHN'S DISEASE AND ULCERATIVE COLITIS AND IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF CHILDREN AND ADULTS AFFECTED BY THESE DISEASES. CCFA HAS DEFINED ITSELF BY SPONSORING THE BEST AND BRIGHTEST RESEARCHERS AND SEEDING THE FIELD WITH GROUNDBREAKING STUDIES AND RESEARCH INITIATIVES TO ADVANCE THE UNDERSTANDING AND TREATMENT OF INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASES ("IBD").</MissionDesc>

      <Desc>Research - Since its inception, CCFA has been at the forefront of medical research in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis -collectively known as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). There are two main research categories. Basic research explores the scientific foundations of the diseases. It answers such questions as: What is the underlying cause of Crohn's and colitis? Which genes are involved in these diseases? Although basic research is complex and can be difficult for laypersons to understand, these studies will ultimately lead to the cure for IBD. Clinical research determines which medical and surgical options work best for patients. - CCFA HAS PLAYED A SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN MANY MAJOR SCIENTIFIC BREAKTHROUGHS IN IBD, FROM GENERATING DATA THAT LED TO NEW THERAPIES TO THE DISCOVERY OF THE FIRST GENE FOR CROHN'S. - CCFA invests in human resources: It takes 10 years to "build" a full-fledged, senior investigator. To make sure that the most talented researchers enter and remain in the field of IBD, CCFA provides research training awards to develop the next generation of investigators. Many of today's most prominent researchers received training awards from CCFA early in their careers. - CCFA sets the research agenda: CCFA brings together the finest minds in the international scientific community (both basic and clinical) to develop and update our strategic plan for research "Challenges in IBD Research". - CCFA SUPPORTS INNOVATIVE AND ESSENTIAL RESEARCH IN THE FIELD OF IBD. SINCE ITS INCEPTION IN 1967, CCFA HAS FUNDED NEARLY 1,400 PROJECTS AND INVESTED $203 MILLION IN RESEARCH. A 2013 REPORT SHOWED THAT CCFA-FUNDED GRANTEES HAVE RECEIVED NEARLY $2.9 BILLION IN FUNDING FROM THE UNITED STATES NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH. THIS FIGURE REPRESENTS A RETURN ON INVESTMENT OF 7.5 FEDERAL AWARDS PER CCFA-SPONSORED PROJECT. - CCFA-SPONSORED GRANTEES HAVE ALSO RECEIVED FUNDING FROM INTERNATIONALLY RENOWNED ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDING 25 DIVISIONS OF THE UNITED STATES NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH, THE JOHN D. AND CATHERINE MACARTHUR FOUNDATION, THE LEONA M. AND HARRY B. HELMSLEY CHARITABLE TRUST AND THE BILL AND MELINDA GATES FOUNDATION. - CCFA HAS INVESTED $8.3 MILLION ON PROJECTS CONDUCTED IN FOURTEEN NATIONS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES. - CCFA TRAINING AWARD RECIPIENTS HAVE SUCCESSFULLY USED THEIR PROJECTS AS A LAUNCH PAD FOR SUCCESSFUL CAREERS IN IBD RESEARCH. FOR EXAMPLE, CCFA'S $29 MILLION COMMITMENT TO CAREER DEVELOPMENT AWARDEES HAS RESULTED IN $158 MILLION IN FEDERAL SUPPORT.</Desc>

        <Desc>CCFA provides information and education in an effort to reach the more than 1.6 million IBD patients and their families through a variety of periodicals (Take Charge, Under the Microscope), books, awareness campaigns, local chapters, its Webcasts, and through its website. CCFA also reaches its many members with exclusive mailings. CCFA also offers professional education on Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, its IBD journal, and health professional workshops. Revenues reported as program service revenue of $284,995 represents camp registration fees for workshops/camp programs run for children and families affected by either crohn's disease or colitis. CCFA support services are delivered through its chapters nationwide which offer more than 300 support groups annually, summer camps for children with IBD, and a range of educational and training programs for local communities.

        <ExplanationTxt>The Crohn's &amp; Colitis Foundation of America, Inc. (CCFA) pays the Health and Medicine Counsel of Washington D.C. to keep the organization up-to-date on what is transpiring with legislation on Capitol Hill concerning health and medicine. (Total amount paid in 2013 was $71,136). It should be noted that the Health and Medicine Counsel of Washington is a healthcare advocacy group that may lobby on behalf of healthcare organizations; however, it is not paid to directly undertake any lobbying activities on behalf of CCFA. CCFA holds a "Day on the Hill" event every year, in which patients suffering with Crohn's disease volunteer to travel to Washington D.C. to discuss proposed healthcare bills with legislators. The "Day on the Hill" event was conducted during the calendar year 2013, for which expenses incurred were approximately $58,203. Expenditures of $58,203 for the Day on the Hill of event have been reported on Schedule C, Part II-B, 1(g). Included within the $58,203 are expenses incurred for mailings made to members, legislators or the public (line 1(d)); accordingly the Foundation has marked box 1(d) yes, but not reported an expense on that line (to avoid double-counting).</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>Accounting for uncertainty in tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, including issues relating to financial statement recognition and meaurement, provides that the tax effects from an uncertain tax position can be recognized in the financial statements only if the position is "more-likely-than-not" to be sustained if the position were to be challenged by a taxing authority. The assessment of the tax position is based solely on the technical merits of the position, without regard to the likelihood that the tax position may be challenged. The Foundation is exempt from income tax under the Code, however, is subject to tax on income unrelated to its exempt purposes, unless that income is otherwise excluded under the Code. The tax years ending 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 are still open to audit for both federal and state purposes. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Foundation's financial statements as management believes that there are no uncertain tax positions within its financial statements.</ExplanationTxt>

To accomplish this, the Foundation subsidizes research into both diseases. Grants are awarded for specific projects for specific research and CCFA requires the researcher to issue progress reports periodically as the project is being completed. Most awards are gifted for a period of 3 years and a progress report to the CCFA Board of Directors is required on an annual basis. If the progress reports do not show significant strides in the research, the grant will not be approved for additional funding and will be terminated.</ExplanationTxt>

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.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>Part VIII, line 1g, Noncash contributions The Crohn's &amp; 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.
