432353018750Litigation:Foundation Litigation (AFL) works to protect and preserve the legal rights of individuals aged 50+ by representing them in significant court cases and by writing AARP's amicus curiae ("friend of the court") briefs. Legal advocacy focuses on widespread practices or policies of industry, business, or government that affect older Americans day-to-day lives including age and disability discrimination in employment, pensions, financial fraud including predatory lending, health and long-term care, disability, and government and public benefits. www.aarp.org/aarp-foundation/legal_advocacy/
17522141752214Income Grants:AARP Foundation's Income Impact Area awarded over $1.7 million in grants to 10 organizations to deliver programs and services to older adults in 11 states over the next two years. The purpose of these grants was to identify and fund innovative and strategic business models that address the specific and unique needs of low income workers age 50+ as they recover from the recession. While helping people obtain jobs offering good wages and benefits is the most critical element of recovery, obtaining a job is not enough. In dealing with long-term unemployment and with the potential reduction of unemployment benefits, older workers also need access to income supports and social services necessary to meet their basic needs and protect their families' financial security.
171907612100Consumer Fraud Prevention:The Consumer Fraud Prevention programs utilize the skills and talents of AARP Foundation volunteers to contact consumers across the United States to warn them of fraud and scams. Volunteers call consumers to arm them with the latest information about frauds delivered through wire transfers, telemarketing, direct mail, and the internet. Through the Colorado and West Virginia Elderwatch programs, consumers are assisted with navigating the state's official complaint process if they suspect they have been frauded. In 2011, the combined AARP Foundation consumer fraud prevention programs reached over 300,000 vulnerable older adults and returned almost $2 million in product replacements, refunds, and debt cancellations to consumers who had been defrauded. www.aarpelderwatch.org; www.aarp.org/states/wv
1077315245000Housing:The Housing Impact Area is focused on providing solutions to the at least 13 million low-income, 50+ households living in unaffordable and/or inadequate housing. In 2011, the Foundation provided information services and counseling delivery on foreclosure prevention to over 200,000 people; began a pilot in Charlottesville, VA creating a "21st century senior center" that provides a continuum of services with affordable housing in collaboration with Habitat for Humanity of Charlottesville, VA; provided a grant to Habitat to build affordable housing for low-income seniors; and built a strategic framework for its future interventions. Also in 2011, the grant-funded Neighborworks program educated more than 85,000 homeowners over the age of 50 on how to recognize the signs or "red flags" of loan modification and other homeownership related scams, as well as who to turn to for help. The program especially targeted women and minority homeowners living in geographic areas at a disproportionately higher risk of foreclosure and foreclosure scams.
661397502382Women's Scholarship Program:The AARP Foundation Women's Scholarship Program is helping win back opportunity for low-income women by funding education, training, and skills upgrades that can lead to better employment and increased financial security for women and their families. In 2011, The AARP Foundation Women's Scholarship Program awarded scholarships to 372 eligible women - facilitating their entry into programs they may otherwise be unable to afford, and ultimately helping them recover from the recent recession. www.aarp.org/womensscholarship
5744980Isolation:The number of low-income Americans age 50+ who are experiencing isolation has been on the rise and is expected to increase in the coming years. The AARP Foundation's Isolation initiative seeks to identify individuals who are isolated or are at risk for isolation as well as understand the environmental factors that may put individuals at risk. In 2011, the Foundation developed an isolation strategic framework, business plans for potential interventions, and a multi-part research agenda to gain a deep understanding of isolation within the low-to-moderate income 50+ population.
18915790Money Management and Other Income Programs:The Money Management Program helps low income, older individuals remain independent by providing daily money management services to those who have difficulty budgeting, paying routine bills, and keeping track of financial matters. The program also offers financial education resources and tools to older adults and their caregivers. AARP Foundation works with 121 local sites in 22 states and the District of Columbia including Senior Services, In-Home and Community Services, Agencies on Aging, Elder and Adult Services that help clients with a variety of services including shopping, companionship, transportation, and chores. In 2011 alone, over 5900 clients were served by this program through the generous support of over 4200 volunteers. Also in 2011, AARP Foundation prepared for the 2012 launch of a pre-paid debit card product targeted to low-income consumers.
2658770Benefits Outreach:The Benefits Outreach program and technology platform, Benefit QuickLink, offers assistance to low income older adults in determining eligibility for a number of public and private benefit programs that help pay for prescription drugs, doctor's bills, property taxes, groceries, heating bills, and more. In 2011, over 20,000 individuals were assisted with screenings and benefits enrollment assistance with a value of identified benefits of over $36 million.
35998843599884Grants to AARP:AARP Foundation has awarded grants to AARP to further the Foundation's charitable mission of helping low income older Americans meet basic needs through programs that focused on care giving, nursing, community centers, food insecurity, asset protection and driver safety.
3013712602354Various Grants, Contributions, and Other Programs:AARP Foundation supported Japan and Haiti natural disaster relief efforts through organizations with a focus on disaster relief for seniors and sponsored events and conferences which highlighted tangible ways to create more opportunity in America for low-income seniors. The Foundation also supported employees in crisis, and engaged in educational initiatives to help low-income seniors retain and protect assets.

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7aThe AARP Board of Directors appoints the voting members of the AARP Foundation Board of Directors. An AARP Foundation director may be removed, with or without cause, by formal action of the AARP Board of Directors, designating a successor.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11As part of the shared services agreement with AARP, the Form 990 for AARP Foundation ("Foundation") is prepared and reviewed in AARP's internal tax department and reviewed by AARP's Controller's Office and Office of General Counsel. The Form 990 is reviewed by Foundation's CFO and President. The Form 990 is then provided to the AARP Foundation Board of Directors. Once all reviews are complete, the return is electronically filed with the Internal Revenue Service.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cAll board members and employees (including officers) are required to review the ethics policy, formally acknowledge their understanding of the policy annually, and disclose any real or potential conflicts of interest. Disclosures are reviewed by appropriate management (or in the case of a board member, the Board Chair, and if necessary, the Board of Directors), and the Chief Ethics & Compliance Officer. The appropriate resolution plan is implemented (for example, recusal from participating in any deliberations and decisions relevant to the disclosure). The Chief Ethics & Compliance Officer monitors compliance with these requirements and ensures proper follow-up as needed.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15Through its shared services agreement with AARP, AARP Foundation participates in AARP's enterprise-wide compensation reviews. AARP has a competitive position in the marketplace that considers relevant for-profit and not-for-profit data since this is the landscape in which AARP and its affiliates compete for talent. Establishing the appropriate compensation for positions and jobs considers external market pricing (where possible) from an independent, third party compensation consulting firm, internal criteria, and an individual's actual performance and contribution. Internal criteria is based on a standard approach that measures the internal value of positions, including: complexity and scope of responsibility, skill set and competencies, education and experience, and the reporting relationship of the position. An individual's actual performance and contribution is measured through AARP's performance management approach and then rewarded through AARP's annual base pay merit and incentive award programs. This process applies to all employees of the Foundation including the President, CFO, and key employees. For AARP Foundation's president, officers, and key employees, based on the process described above, the officers of the AARP Foundation Board approves adjustments to the president's, officers, and key employees compensation package.

ExplanationAARP Foundation and AARP, its parent organization, share mailing lists. AARP does not rent its mailing list to other organizations, so a fair market value of the benefit to the Foundation has not been established. While the AARP Foundation currently exchanges a small subset of its mailing list with other charities, the AARP list is much larger and thus presumably more valuable than the Foundation list. Moreover, the vast majority of names on the AARP Foundation list are already on the AARP list, as they are also AARP members.Explanation
