DescriptionResearch - 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 role in every major scientific breakthrough 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 research generates important data. In a 2005 survey of 200 researchers, 107 reported publishing more than 500 articles based on CCFA-funded research.Description

ExplanationThe Crohn's & 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 2011 was $71,652). 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 2011, for which expenses incurred were approximately $50,230. Expenditures of $50,230 for the Day on the Hill of event have been reported on Schedule C, Part II-B, 1(g). Included within the $50,230 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).Explanation

Income TaxesPart XThe Foundation adopted guidance that clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, including issues relating to financial statement recognition and measurement as of January 1, 2010. This section 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 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 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.

ExplanationThe process for monitoring grants to researchers outside the United States is the same as the process undertaken for those inside the United States. (See Schedule I) Grants are awarded for specific projects for specific research and CCFA requires the researcher to issue progress reports periodically as the project is being done. Most awards are gifted for a period of 3 years and 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.Explanation

ExplanationThe Crohn's & Colitis Foundation of America, Inc. only partakes in gaming activities to the extent the organization holds a raffle or game of chance during a gala, dinner or other special event. Each chapter is responsible for conducting its own special event activities and, as such, the organization does not have one person who oversees all gaming activities for purposes of Schedule G, Part III, Lines 14 & 16. Raffles are conducted as part of special events and not as separate fundraising activities. Chapters are responsible for securing applicable licenses and complying with reporting requirements. For the period covered by this return, only seven chapters held raffles: California, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington.Explanation

ExplanationThe President's incentive is predicated off of a set of objectives that are developed and updated each year. These objectives include raising revenues, management of expenses, development of regions and related performance, building of infrastructure and maximization of research expenditures. Each area's results are evaluated by the President's Review Committee and the incentive is ultimately determined based on ratings of performance of these objectives. For all other employees, impact awards are given to employees if the individual meets net income and net revenue targets and must be recommended by their supervisor.Explanation

Governing Body and managementPart VI, Line 2Irwin 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 990Part VI, section B, Line 11The Form 990 was prepared by a national accounting firm in conjunction with the organization's financial department. A copy of the draft Form 990 was circulated to each member of the Audit Committee, a standing committee of the Board of Trustees, for discussion and comment. Each committee Member was provided an opportunity to comment on the information contained in the 990 prior to its filing with the Internal Revenue Service.
Conflict of Interest Policy Monitoring & EnforcementPart VI, Section B, Line 12Each 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 compensationPart VI, section B, Line 15The 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 as statistically prepared by an independent research firm. The Foundation has taken further initiative to benchmark executive level pay by hiring an independent compensation consultant to review and validate the compensation it pays all 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 executives with compensation paid to executives of other not for profit organizations of similar size.
Availability of documents to the publicpart vi, section C, line 19The 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.
ContributionsPart VIII, line 1g, Noncash contributionsThe 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 2011, CCFA received $39,206 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 on Part VIII, line 1(G). For the year ending December 31, 2011, contributed services and airtime amounted to $3,636,334.
Fees for professional fundraising servicesPart IX, line 11eThe Foundation is reporting professional fundraising fees of $221,952 on Line 11(e). On Schedule G, the Foundation reports that it has paid $236,879 in professional fundraising fees to two fundraisers. The reconciling $14,927 of professional fundraising expenses is reported as an advertising and promotion expense on Part IX, Line 12. Part XI, line 5 - Reconciliation of net assets Changes in gift annuities valuations: $ 60,411 Unrealized gain/(Loss): $ (561,183) ----------- $(500,772) ============
