Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6

The sole corporate member of The Cradle Foundation is the Cradle.

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7A

The Cradle approves the Board of Directors for The Cradle Foundation.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11

Management works with the auditors in the preparation of the Form 990 and provides a copy of the prepared Form 990 to the Board Audit Committee for review prior to its filing with the IRS.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12C

Any known material conflict of interest which becomes relevant to any matter requiring action by the Board of Directors or any of its committees are to be disclosed to the Board of Directors or such committee, and such individual shall not vote on such matter, shall not use personal influence in connection with such matter, and shall not be counted in determining the quorum for the meeting. The minutes of such meeting will reflect the disclosure made, the abstinence from voting, and the exclusion from the count in determining the quorum for the meeting.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15

A compensation review occurs annually following the end of the fiscal year. In preparation for the discussion, a compensation survey is conducted which consists of a review of comparable adoption agency Form 990's, non-profit salary surveys, and publically available data from the Department of Labor and salary websites. The data is complied and compared to the current analyzed salaries of senior staff in relation to the organization's compensation philosophy and practices statement. Should there be indicators that an adjustment is necessary, recommendation is made with supportive data. The Compensation Committee determines if any increase will be approved considering both the data and the organization's ability to make the adjustment. The Compensation Committee's recommendation is approved by the Board of Directors which is documented in the Board minutes.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19

The governing documents and conflict of interest policy are available upon request. The organization's financial statements are posted on The Cradle's website and are also available upon request. These documents are available for the same period of disclosure as set forth in section 6104(d).

Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Part XI, line 9:

Net Asset Transfers 188,970.

Financial Statement Notes

Part V, Line 4:

The Cradle Foundation's endowment funds are intended for the support of general operations, the Nursery, and a post-adoption counselor.

Part X, Line 2:

The Cradle, the Foundation, and CAP have received determination letters from the Internal Revenue Service indicating they are tax-exempt organizations as provided in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and are exempt from federal and state income taxes on income related to its exempt purpose. The Organizations follow the accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under this guidance, the Organizations may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of the Organizations, and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities as of and for the year ended September 30, 2016. The Organizations file Form 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in the State of Illinois. The Organizations are generally no longer subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for years before fiscal 2013.

Part XI, Line 2D - Other Adjustments:

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The Cradle Foundation's endowment funds are intended for the support of general operations, the Nursery, and a post-adoption counselor.
IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1The Cradle, the Foundation, and CAP have received determination letters from the Internal Revenue Service indicating they are tax-exempt organizations as provided in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and are exempt from federal and state income taxes on income related to its exempt purpose. The Organizations follow the accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under this guidance, the Organizations may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of the Organizations, and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities as of and for the year ended September 30, 2016. The Organizations file Form 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in the State of Illinois. The Organizations are generally no longer subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for years before fiscal 2013.
