Mission and Program Overview
Mission
Fidelis is a national social welfare organization established to organize, coordinate, and mobilize grassroots civic action for catholics and all people of good will to defend life, faith and family.
Major Activities
- Activity 2
- Fidelis operated a d/b/a commonly known as catholic vote action or catholicvoteaction.org (cva), to educate, mobilize and influence public policy on issues of concern to catholic voters and all people of good will. Effective september 1, 2010 the d/b/a changed its name to catholic vote or catholicvote.org (cv). Cva/cv used online media programs, including video commercials, social media, and email messaging to influence the public debate surrounding health care reform. Cva/cv sent an estimated 4 million email messages to subscribers providing commentary and civic action updates in an effort to influence the health care debate. Cva/cv engaged directly with key legislators and hospital and doctor groups with phone calls and meetings to promote reform that would prohibit taxpayer funding for abortion, provide conscience protection for doctors and health care workers, and increase the availability of affordable health care for all americans. The catholicvoteaction.org website operated as the 501(c)4 counterpart to the catholic vote education fund.

| IRS990ScheduleD/Form990ScheduleDPartXIV/Explanation | 0 | EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2009, THE ORGANIZATION ADOPTED THE GUIDANCE IN THE FASB CODIFICATION TOPIC RELATED TO UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES WHICH PRESCRIBES A COMPREHENSIVE MODEL FOR RECOGNIZING, MEASURING, PRESENTING AND DISCLOSING IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS THAT THE ORGANIZATION HAS TAKEN OR EXPECTS TO TAKE IN ITS TAX RETURNS. UNDER THE GUIDANCE, THE ORGANIZATION MAY RECOGNIZE THE TAX BENEFIT FROM AN UNCERTAIN TAX POSITION ONLY IF IT IS "MORE LIKELY THAN NOT" THAT IT IS SUSTAINABLE, BASED ON ITS TECHNICAL MERITS. THE TAX BENEFITS RECOGNIZED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FROM SUCH A POSITION SHOULD BE MEASURED BASED ON THE LARGEST BENEFIT THAT HAS A GREATER THAN 50% LIKELIHOOD OF BEING REALIZED UPON ULTIMATE SETTLEMENT WITH A TAXING AUTHORITY HAVING FULL KNOWLEDGE OF ALL RELEVANT INFORMATION. THE ADOPTION OF THE GUIDANCE HAD NO EFFECT ON THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF JANUARY 1, 2009 AND RESULTED IN NO ADJUSTMENT FOR UNRECOGNIZED INCOME TAX BENEFITS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2010 OR 2009. THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES THAT IT HAS APPROPRIATE SUPPORT FOR THE POSITIONS TAKEN ON ITS RETURNS. |
