Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990

“Of the total contributions and grants shown on form 990, part i, line 8, 222,000 relates to capital funds for the new youth center building.”

Form 990, Page 1, Part I, Line 6

“The statement of functional expenses is prepared on the gaap basis and therefore fails to account for the value of volunteer labor. Program expenses are kept very low due to the organization's use of volunteers to deliver most of the program's teaching. Volunteers gave over 42,459 teaching and preparation hours during the year. The independent sector has set 25.43 per hour as the value for volunteer hours in arizona. This means the work done by volunteers was worth approximately 1,079,732. With this amount added to the organization's expenses, the percentage of the entire budget spent on programs is 88%, with only 3% and 9% spent on administrative and fundraising functions respectively.”

Form 990, Page 2, Part III, Line 4D

“Reach out and read southern arizona (rorsa) prepares children to succeed in school by partnering with doctors in 56 clinics, reaching 40,183 children from 6 months to 5 years prescribing 66,838 free books and encouraging families to read together.”
