      <Description>In FY2010 our chapter granted 274 wishes in the 54 counties that our Chapter serves. Through the dedication of over 900 volunteers and strong ties with individual and corporate donors our Chapter is able to grant the most heartfelt wishes of our children. Total cost of wishes granted for the fiscal year were $1,553,046. Of this amount, $255,586 was contributed by various vendors who provided in-kind contributions such as travel and travel services, transportation, lodging, and other services and use of facilities to complete a child's wish. For financial statement purposes, these amounts are included as contribution revenue and granted wish expense. For Form 990, however, the IRS requires the $255,586 of contributed services and use of facilities to be excluded from both revenue and expense.</Description>

        <Explanation>Line 11 - Once the 990 is completed by our outside preparer, it is reviewed by our CFO, President &amp; CEO, Board Chair and Finance Committee. Once approved by the Finance Committee, it is provided to the complete board of directors for review and approval. Line 12c - THE ORGANIZATION ADOPTED A "STATEMENT OF VALUES, CODE OF ETHICS AND CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY" WITH WHICH ALL OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES AND VOLUNTEERS ARE REQUIRED TO COMPLY AND ACKNOWLEDGE BY SIGNING, UPON THEIR INITIAL INVOLVEMENT WITH THE ORGANIZATION AND ANNUALLY THEREAFTER, AN "ANNUAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST AND ETHICS ASSURANCE STATEMENT" (THE "COI STATEMENT"). THE COI STATEMENT REQUIRES OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND KEY EMPLOYEES TO DISCLOSE THE EXISTENCE OF ANY FAMILY AND/OR BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS THEY MAY HAVE WITH OTHER OFFICERS, DIRECTORS OR KEY EMPLOYEES OF THE ORGANIZATION. THE SECRETARY OF THE BOARD IS CHARGED WITH ENSURING THE COI STATEMENT AND ADDENDUM ARE SIGNED EACH YEAR BY DIRECTORS, WHILE THE ORGANIZATION'S HUMAN RESOURCES DEPARTMENT IS CHARGED WITH ENSURING THOSE DOCUMENTS ARE SIGNED BY OFFICERS AND KEY EMPLOYEES. IF ANY COVERED PERSON DISCLOSES A POTENTIAL OR ACTUAL CONFLICT, THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE IS FOLLOWED: (1) THE CONFLICTING INTEREST IS FULLY DISCLOSED TO THE BOARD; (2) THE COVERED PERSON RESPONDS TO ANY FACTUAL QUESTIONS FROM THE BOARD RELATED TO THE DISCLOSED CONFLICT; AND (3) THE BOARD, WITHOUT THE COVERED PERSON, DISCUSSES THE CONFLICT AND APPROVES OR DISAPPROVES THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION. Line 15A &amp; B - FOR 2009 COMPENSATION, THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD, COMPRISED SOLELY OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS, NONE OF WHOM HAVE A CONFLICT OF INTEREST WITH RESPECT TO THE COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENT, WAS ACCOUNTABLE FOR SETTING A REASONABLE COMPENSATION PACKAGE FOR THE CEO. THE COMMITTEE PERFORMS AN ANNUAL REVIEW OF THE CEO AND ESTABLISHES GOALS FOR THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR. THE COMMITTEE ALSO GATHERS BENCHMARKING DATA RELEVANT TO OFFICERS FROM COMPARABLE NATIONAL NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS AND ANALYZES THE SALARY SURVEY RESULTS PROVIDED BY MAKE-A-WISH FOUNDATION OF AMERICA. THE COMPENSATION PACKAGES FOR OTHER OFFICERS AND KEY EMPLOYEES ARE DETERMINED BY THE CEO. THE CEO PERFORMS AN ANNUAL REVIEW OF THE OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE AND ESTABLISHES GOALS FOR THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR. THE CEO ALSO EVALUATES BENCHMARKING DATA RELEVANT TO OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES FROM COMPARABLE NATIONAL NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS AND ANALYZES THE SALARY SURVEY RESULTS PROVIDED BY MAKE-A-WISH FOUNDATION OF AMERICA. THE ORGANIZATION'S WRITTEN RECORDS INCLUDE THE (1) TERMS OF THE COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS; (2) A DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPARABLE DATA RELIED UPON BY THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE; AND (3) DOCUMENTATION OF THE DECISIONS MADE BY THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.</Explanation>
