GENERAL EXPLANATION 1: SUMMARY OF DIRECT CHARITABLE ACTIVITIESFORM 990-PF, PART IX-A1. Knight Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics - In June 2010 the Knight Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics published its third major report, Restoring the Balance: Dollars, Values and the Future of College Athletics. Following a public news conference led by Commission members outlining the report's recommendations, copies of the report were distributed to college presidents, faculty, media, administrators, higher education leaders, scholars and other stakeholders. An online multimedia report was published as well. Commission leadership and staff made presentations to a number of groups throughout the year promoting the primary recommendations to: 1) require public transparency of each institution's NCAA financial report, 2) reward practices that make academics a priority in athletics, and 3) treat athletes as students first and foremost-not as professionals. During the year, the full Commission met on two separate occasions. Once to complete the report and then again, five months following its release, to access the report's impact. The report's research and recommendations informs higher education leaders, the media and the public about key policy issues in college sports. The NCAA is implementing one of the report's central recommendations-to establish an academic threshold for postseason eligibility. (Part IX-A #1) 2. Knight Community Information Challenge - The Knight Community Information Challenge engages community and place-based foundations in playing leading roles in meeting the information needs of their communities. It consists of three key components: 1) An annual Media Learning Seminar for foundation leaders and communications experts; 2) a challenge grant program; and 3) technical assistance providers, called circuit riders. (Part IX-A #2) At the two-day Media Learning Seminar, more than 300 community and place-based foundation leaders explore with technology experts how foundations can help residents be informed about the issues that shape their communities. The grant program provides matching funding to community and place-based foundations that are filling community information needs, fostering community engagement and helping residents participate in the creation and sharing of news and information. The Circuit Riders are contracted by Knight Foundation to help foundations develop and implement community news projects. 3. Grant Expenditure Evaluations - Consistent with its commitment to developing grantee organizational capacity and promoting the use of best practices in the field, the Knight Foundation performed several Grant Expenditure Evaluations on our grantees. These Evaluations are performed by outside consultants who examine the grantee's administrative operations, internal controls and programmatic activities by following a sample of grant expenditures through the grantee's expenditure cycle. The Foundation provides the grantee with a report detailing the consultant's observations and recommendations for improvements. (Part IX-A #3) 4. Gallup/Soul of the Community - For three years, the Gallup organization surveyed residents in 26 Knight communities to find out what attached them to the place they lived. The groundbreaking findings are helping to reshape the conversations about what causes people to take action and to engage with others in making their communities better places to live, work and play. In 2010, the last year of survey results, Knight amped up its distribution of the findings to community and national leaders. In addition, Knight worked with these leaders to host seminars and workshops to help business, government and nonprofit leaders put the ideas to work. Knight worked with a communications firm to develop and distribute reports in print, videos, webcasts and guest appearances on radio and television programs. Knight also employed a lead consultant to help develop the intellectual framework for this new construct, mine the data for actionable insights and work in communities to develop action plans. (Part IX-A #4)
