The organization relies primarily on direct mail solicitations for fundraising. The organization has received donations from more than 400,000 persons since inception and received donations from more than 20,000 individuals during the last year alone.ICF qualifies as a publicly supported organization under the 10% facts and circumstances test. First, ICF meets the 10% of public support requirement. In the tax year ending September 30, 2010, ICF received over 20% of its support from contributions directly from the general public. This percentage and is well above the 10% of public support threshold requirement and indicates that a substantial amount of its support is from the public. Second, ICF meets the attraction of public support requirement. ICF maintains a continuous and bona fide program for soliciting funds from the general public, receiving donations from a broad donor base that exceeds 20,000 individual donors and actively soliciting new donors through direct mail campaigns targeting several hundred thousand new prospects each year. Finally, ICF meets four out of five public support factors, indicating its status as a publicly supported organization under the 10% facts and circumstances test.Percentage of Financial Support Factor: ICF's percentage of public support is just over 20%. This high percentage of public support weighs in ICFs favor and indicates that the organization is substantially supported by the public. Sources of Support Factor: In the tax year ending September 30, 2010 and the four preceding years, donations were received from over 20,000 individual donors. It should also be noted that during this time period, ICF has received less than $10,000 per year of investment, unrelated business or other income.Representative Governing Body Factor: ICF's Board of Directors (the Board) is composed of persons having special knowledge and expertise in the field of international relief work, particularly providing food, clothing, medicine, and other humanitarian aid to desperately poor children and their families throughout the world. In particular, ICFs President and Board member Dr. David Breunning has served in the international relief field for over thirty years. Availability of Public Facilities or Services Factor: ICF provides food, clothing, medicine, and other humanitarian aid directly to needy children and their families throughout Africa and the world on a continuing basis in fulfillment of its charitable purposes. In particular, in the tax year ending September 30, 2010, ICF delivered more than $37 million of life-saving food, clothing, and medicine to needy individuals located in Liberia, Sierra Leone, Ghana, and Uganda, among others.Additional Factors Pertinent to Membership Organizations : ICF is not a membership organization; therefore, this factor does not apply.

This guidance increases the relevancy and comparability of financial reporting by clarifying the way organizations account for uncertainties in income taxes for tax positions taken or expected to be taken. It makes recognition and measurement more consistent as well as offering clear criteria for subsequently recognizing, derecognizing and measuring such tax positions for financial statement purposes. This adoption had no impact on the Organizations financial position, results of activities or cash flows. Penalties and interest assessed by income taxing authorities are included in management and general expenses, if applicable. The Organization had no interest and penalties related to income taxes for the year ended September 30, 2010. The Organizations federal returns are subject to examination generally for three years after they are filed and its state returns generally for four years after they are filed. 1 Sub-Saharan Africa 0 0 GRANTMAKING 37264604 0 0 37264604 Sub-Saharan Africa SUPPLY MEDICINE, FOOD, CLOTHING, EDUCATIONAL SUPPLIES 13000 WIRE TRANSFER 218295 MEDICINE, FOOD, CLOTHING, EDUCATIONAL SUPPLIES FMV Sub-Saharan Africa SUPPLY MEDICINE, FOOD, CLOTHING, EDUCATIONAL SUPPLIES 0 326300 MEDICINE, FOOD, CLOTHING, EDUCATIONAL SUPPLIES FMV Sub-Saharan Africa SUPPLY MEDICINE, FOOD, CLOTHING, EDUCATIONAL SUPPLIES 11000 WIRE TRANSFER 170655 MEDICINE, FOOD, CLOTHING, EDUCATIONAL SUPPLIES FMV Sub-Saharan Africa SUPPLY MEDICINE, FOOD, CLOTHING, EDUCATIONAL SUPPLIES 28000 WIRE TRANSFER 423184 MEDICINE, FOOD, CLOTHING, EDUCATIONAL SUPPLIES FMV Sub-Saharan Africa SUPPLY MEDICINE, FOOD, CLOTHING, EDUCATIONAL SUPPLIES 5000 WIRE TRANSFER 35920438 MEDICINE, FOOD, CLOTHING, EDUCATIONAL SUPPLIES FMV Sub-Saharan Africa SUPPLY MEDICINE, FOOD, CLOTHING, EDUCATIONAL SUPPLIES 4000 WIRE TRANSFER 17200 MEDICINE, FOOD, CLOTHING, EDUCATIONAL SUPPLIES FMV Sub-Saharan Africa SUPPLY MEDICINE, FOOD, CLOTHING, EDUCATIONAL SUPPLIES 6500 WIRE TRANSFER 60191 MEDICINE, FOOD, CLOTHING, EDUCATIONAL SUPPLIES FMV Sub-Saharan Africa SUPPORT MISSIONARY ORGANIZATION 13000 WIRE TRANSFER 8 0 Procedure for Monitoring Grants Outside the U.S.: Schedule F, Part I, Line 2: THE ORGANIZATION MAKES GRANTS TO SEVERAL ORGANIZATIONS.
