Change starts here.

Since 1941, our United Way has worked to strengthen lives by bringing together the financial resources of the region – business, labour, individuals, government, and funders – in support of a network of social service and health agencies. We recognize that we, as a community, continue to face complex social challenges.

We know that early development is the key to prevention. We know that our communities have a number of youth who find themselves in difficult situations, often making choices that have serious consequences for them and their families. We know that many in our community struggle to make ends meet.

We know there are neighbourhoods in our community that need help. Often in these neighbourhoods, youth are not engaged, leaving them vulnerable. Children frequently

go to school hungry and, with parents working multiple jobs to make ends meet, are left unattended after school.

We are aware that homelessness is an issue in Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington. Many lose their homes due to a sudden illness, changes in their family or employment situations.

To address these challenges, United Way needs to tackle the root causes, needs to understand social trends and needs to identify partners who will help with what are often very complex issues.

In addition to funding programs and services delivered by funded agencies, United Way mobilizes people from all walks of life and gathers resources through volunteerism and partnerships.

united Way Mission

To build and strengthen our community by bringing people and resources together to facilitate change.

united Way Vision

A community with a strong social services network where individuals can develop their potential for self-sufficiency and personal wellbeing.

2

Every year, thousands of volunteers come together to raise funds for services that benefit their family, friends and neighbours. Individuals, employees, business, workplaces and labour join forces, united in a common cause – to build a stronger community and demonstrate their spirit of giving. In addition to this, volunteers actively participate in every aspect of the organization.

Accountability Framework

At the United Way, we promote responsible stewardship of our community’s resources. Our fundraising and administration costs are among the lowest in the charity sector. Last year, our campaign and administration expenses were 12%, well below the average spent by not-for-profit organizations.

Our United Way also actively solicits in-kind donations and the support of over 2,000 volunteers to keep expenses as low as possible and ensure that as much as possible of every dollar goes directly to the communities we serve.

United Way is committed to transparency and accountability throughout our organization. United Way serving KFL&A is a member of Imagine Canada’s Ethical Code and adheres to the national United Way standards for transparency, accountability and reporting.

In 2011, United Way serving KFL&A was awarded the Voluntary Sector Reporting Award for Financial Reporting Transparency.

Report from the Board Chair and president & Ceo

The Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox & Addington United Way has long focused on leveraging resources to support identified community needs. Through our work and partnerships with many agencies and stakeholders from across our area, we are able to facilitate and nurture the vital connections that bring hope to families from across our community and help to ensure that support is directed to critical needs that might otherwise go unmet.

This year, the Board of Directors undertook a review of our mission statement. Our revised mission statement – To bring people and resources together to facilitate change – proudly reflects our organization’s work. And indeed we are proud of the work that United Way serving KFL&A has accomplished in key priority areas including homelessness and poverty reduction, supporting early development for children and youth, and supporting people who are vulnerable or at risk.

Thanks to an incredibly successful campaign this year that raised a record $3,327,000, we are able to fund 80 critical programs and 48 agencies that support over 85,000 people in our community.

We owe special thanks to our enthusiastic campaign cabinet led by Les Herr, as well as our thousands of tireless volunteers from across the community. Every bake sale, garage sale, movie night, hot dog lunch, three-legged race, and silent auction held in support of the United Way campaign added to our ability to support the many important programs run by our member agencies. And generous payroll contributions, one-time donations, bequests and endowments help us to ensure that local programs are readily accessible when they are needed most.

Supported by thoughtful recommendations made by our dedicated Citizens Review Panels, donor dollars were allocated for maximum impact. Panel volunteers worked hard to review agencies’ requests for funding and understand the impact of United Way dollars in delivering programs across our community. We salute our funded agencies who provide high quality programs that make a measurable difference for those whom they serve.

We proudly launched a new Volunteer Service this year to help match interested volunteers with available volunteering opportunities within the community. Without volunteers, many local not-for-profit organizations would struggle to run their important programs. This new service is helping to meet an important need within our community.

United Way helps to support families at all stages of life, whether it is helping kids be all that they can be; turning lives around to support healthy people and strong communities; or by working to ensure belonging within the community through our efforts to move from poverty to possibility.

5United WAy KFL&A | Annual Report

The people of Kingston & area have once again demonstrated their leadership, their persistence and their creativity during the 2011 annual campaign.

Report from the treasurer

The campaign continues to achieve record highs year after year which is in large part due to the business approach that is taken in developing strategies and goals that always keep the end in mind ~ helping those in need in our community. This ongoing commitment has allowed the United Way, the member agencies and many other community organizations to continue their great work and to meet the growing needs of our communities.

As Treasurer, I am pleased to say the United Way serving KFL&A is in a sound financial position thanks not only to increased fund raising but also due to a relentless commitment to managing costs. As an organization we expend only 12% of our revenue on fundraising and administrative costs.

The United Way remains committed to our mission “To build and strengthen our community by bringing people and resources together to facilitate change”. In 2011 we were able to bring our mission to life by increasing funding and support of both base services and programs in our community. This mission will continue to remain our focus in the years to come. We will explore new and better ways to serve, strengthen and provide value to the community.

The role of treasurer of an organization at first glance can appear to be a daunting task but through the support and dedication of many people things are straight forward and challenge free. I would like to personally thank the Finance Committee volunteers, United Way staff and community for making this yet another outstanding year. My years as treasurer have been very rewarding and I know the organization is positioned to continue to reach new goals and provide happiness, freedom and peace of mind to many more members of our community.

People are very generous when they know how their donation makes a difference. That is why we made it a goal of our 2011 Campaign to increase our overall participation rate by telling our story and asking people for their support.

Report from the Campaign Chair

We knew 2011 would be a challenging year. We also knew the needs of the community would be greater than ever before. So we focused on reaching out and engaging people who may not have heard the incredible stories of how United Way changes lives and makes our community stronger and a better, more caring place to live.

During the campaign, under the banner of “Everyday Heroes are Among Us”, we shared countless stories of how everyday heroes were making a difference in our community. There wasn’t a dry eye in the house when speaker John Dickson inspired us with his story of his life before and after using the services of Home Base Housing at our kick-off breakfast and touchdown celebration.

So when we set a new record and surpassed our goal, raising $3,327,000 it was gratifying. But, it was even more gratifying to know that we were able to raise awareness and engage more people in the important work of the United Way.

I would like to thank all the everyday heroes who made this year’s campaign a success—the United Way Cabinet, the loaned representatives, the legions of enthusiastic volunteers, the media who helped us share our story, and the staff and boards at the agencies themselves and at United Way who worked tirelessly during the campaign.

Another campaign is over, but the United Way story will continue. The story will continue because the United Way will keep working with the city and other partners to reduce poverty and homelessness in our community. The story will continue because our agencies will keep delivering services to one in three people in our community. And it will continue because of the actions of our everyday heroes—the volunteers, employees, and people in our community who care and give generously.

les heRR,2011CampaignChair

“If there is one message I would like to share with all the everyday heroes who contributed to the success of our 2011 campaign, it is to carry on the message.”

7United WAy KFL&A | Annual Report

Let me start by saying congratulations to all the volunteers, staff and workplace campaigners who tirelessly helped the United Way not only reach but exceed the 2011 goal. Well done!

labour Report

The CLC (Canadian Labour Congress) and the United Way Centraide share a common vision for prosperous communities encouraging workers and union leaders to get involved and support the United Way. The Kingston and District Labour Council and all our affiliates share a history of working closely with the United Way so that our combined voices, networks and resources can make that vision real.

Labour Day kicked off our campaign. I would like to thank Debi Wells of ETFO (Elementary Teachers Federation) and the Labour Council and all the Labour Day Committee members for all their hard work in making the event such a success. Also, I’d like to especially recognize the support and the hard work done on the United Way Campaign Cabinet by Joan Jardin a member of OSSTF (Ontario Secondary School Teachers Federation) and Labour Council Executive Board member.

A key element in our work together is the Union Counselling Program. It trains our members to refer those in need to community resources and agency programs enabling us to further enhance the connection with the labour community. It helps to increase our connections in workplaces to educate and promote the United Way. We encourage all Unions to have members trained and on site to be able to refer those with problems beyond the scope of their collective agreements to the right resource they need. Special thanks to those volunteers from OPSEU, CUPE and OSSTF who helped Darlene Medhurst, our United Way Labour Community Director in delivering this very popular course.

Another element in our partnership is the Workers Help Centre which provides referral services to all workers and their families helping them through difficult times.

It is important that the good work of both our movements continue and thrive. We are partners, joining all those involved in the United Way and the over three million CLC members in building healthier communities. Together we can and do make a difference.

The goal of the recruitment process to the Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington United Way Board of Directors is to maintain a balanced representation from the community. To do this, board membership is evaluated on an ongoing basis to ensure that prospective board members are recruited to maintain the representation and skills needed to operate our various committees effectively.

Each year an orientation session is held in the fall for all board members, to introduce new members to the expectations and responsibilities of the board, and to review policies and procedures.

In 2011 the United Way KFL&A Mission Statement was reviewed during this session, and as a result of member feedback, a new Mission Statement has been created that reflects the goals of the local United Way.

CoMMunitY plAn on poVeRtY ReduCtionThe United Way worked with the City of Kingston and the former Kingston Community Roundtable on Poverty Reduction to develop a Poverty Reduction Plan. The process included extensive community consultations and conversations. Goals and objectives were developed in 5 strategic focus areas based on this input. This year, United Way will be working with the City of Kingston, Community Health Centres and other partners, supporting working groups that address poverty reduction in Kingston.

hoMelessnessThe United Way has been working with community partners on the issue of homelessness. In its role as the Community Entity for Kingston, United Way facilitates community planning, identifies priorities, coordinates and supports a local Community Advisory Board.

The United Way also facilitated the L&A Report on Homelessness. This has helped lay the foundation for the L&A community to develop action plans to address the issue of rural homelessness.

We’re Working to Address the Root Causes of Social Issues

Our Community is a vital, vibrant place. Our most pressing needs change from season to season, from year to year. United Way works with the community to identify issues that matter the most to the people of KFL&A, now and in the future.

United Way invests in research to identify the challenges facing our community. We collect data, consult with the community and research best practices to develop reports on issues that we believe are critical in the community.

The “Seeing is Believing” bus tour takes volunteers and donors behind the scenes to see first-hand the impact of their donations in the community as they visit local agencies and programs. They get a chance to meet the front line workers who deliver the programs as well as those who benefit from the services.

In 2011, two bus tours were organized thanks to the City of Kingston, Kingston Transit who provided the buses. In addition to these group tours, ten custom tours were organized.

united WAY dAY oF CARing

Day of Caring helps connect and engage workplace volunteers. Employees from

local workplaces head out to agencies in KFL&A. It’s a win-win for all – agencies get much needed work completed and volunteers get to learn about their community through a hands-on experience and team building.

In 2011, 204 volunteers from 27 workplaces worked on 29 projects.

dAtA ConsoRtiuM

In 2011, KFL&A became the 18th social data consortium in Canada. This partnership has allowed the region to access data on a range of quality of life indicators, which assists with our strategic initiatives.

The Community Data Consortium will ensure the community has access to important data that helps facilitate change.

suCCess BY 6: MAking kFl&A Child-FRiendlY

We all know that it takes a community to raise a child. Success By 6 works with individuals and partner groups to focus on children 0-6 years, their parents and caregivers across the region.

The goal is to make KFL&A child friendly through an awareness campaign, ensuring that young children are a priority in our community:

“take the time, Make the Moments Matter.™”

The goal is to increase the time parents and caregivers spend with their children.

speAkeRs BuReAu

Speakers put a human face to the United Way and share success stories that demonstrate the impact of United Way funded programs.

In 2011, 35 speakers spoke to 163 workplaces.

union Counselling

A partnership between the United Way and the Kingston and District Labour Council, the Union Counselling program helps workers to find effective solutions and community support for issues outside the scope of their collective agreements. Union Counsellors are often the first contact for co-workers with problems.

In 2011, members from CUPE, OPSEU, USW and PSAC were trained.

WoRkeRs help CentRe

The Help Centre helps both union and non-union workers with access to community resources. This service benefits those who have lost their jobs due to layoffs, downsizing or closure. It also helps with personal issues or other problems affecting workers. The Centre is located in the Steelworkers Union Centre at 105 Sutherland Drive.

In 2011, 210 referrals were made to 19 agencies, helping 105 workers in our community.

next gen

United Way Next Gen is a new initiative in the KFL&A area focused on developing a community of younger stakeholders, ages 25 to 40, and encouraging them to invest their time, energy and money in the community through the United Way. Next Gen was started with the intent to engage the members of this group early in life by building a base of future supporters, volunteers and community leaders. This initiative creates opportunities for future leaders to participate in the community and empowers them to support and advance the impact of the United Way in the local community.

In 2011, Next Gen volunteers raised $4,280 at their first event, a Frontenacs game. The Cabinet is currently working on their annual signature event, Hopscotch Kingston, a celebration of beer, whisky and music.

Independent Auditors’ ReportTo the Members of United Way serving Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox & Addington

RepoRt on the FinAnCiAl stAteMents

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the United Way serving Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox & Addington which comprise the statement of financial position as at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and the statements of changes in fund balances, operations and cash flows for the years then ended and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

MAnAgeMent’s ResponsiBilitY FoR the FinAnCiAl stAteMents

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

AuditoR’s ResponsiBilitY

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that

are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

BAsis FoR quAliFied opinion

In common with many charitable organizations, the organization derives revenue from donations and fundraising, the completeness of which is not susceptible to satisfactory audit verification. Accordingly, our verification of these revenues was limited to the amounts recorded in the records of the organization and we were not able to determine whether any adjustments might be necessary to donation and fundraising revenues, excess of revenue over expenditures, assets and changes in fund balances.

quAliFied opinion

In our opinion, except for the effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of United Way serving Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox & Addington as at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, and its financial performance and cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

nAtuRe oF Business

The organization is incorporated under the laws of Ontario without share capital and is registered as a public foundation for income tax purposes. The organization is exempt from tax under subparagraph 149(1)(f) of the Canadian Income Tax Act. The mission of the organization is to build and strengthen our community by bringing people and resources together to facilitate change. The organization’s vision is a community with a strong social services network where individuals can develop their potential for self-sufficiency and personal well-being.

use oF estiMAtes

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from management’s best estimates as additional information becomes available in the future.

Estimates have been made by management within these financial statements primarily in relation to short-term investments, pledges receivable, accounts receivable,inventory, prepaid expenses, long-term investments, capital assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, deferred contributions non-campaign and deferred campaign revenue.

These estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and as adjustments become necessary they are reported in the periods in which they become known.

Fund ACCounting

The accompanying financial statements include the activities of the organization for which the Board of Directors is legally accountable. In order to properly reflect its activities, the organization maintains its accounts in accordance with the principles of “fund accounting” in order

that limitations and restrictions placed on the use of available resources are observed. The organization follows the restricted fund method of accounting for contributions. Under fund accounting, resources for various purposes are classified for accounting and reporting purposes into funds in accordance with activities or objectives specified. For financial reporting purposes, the organization has combined funds with similar characteristics into three groups: Operating Fund, Endowment Fund and Community Impact Initiatives.

The operating Fund accounts for the expenditures related to allocations and programs, campaign, administrative and other operations of the organization financed by campaign and general revenues.

The endowment Fund accounts for monies received for special purposes other than the building and operating program where only the income earned on the money is expendable for the special purposes designated. Externally restricted fund balance represents contributed capital, while the internally restricted fund balance represents the cumulative investment income (loss) less costs.

The Community impact initiatives Fund supports a variety of United Way initiatives that help people to develop their potential for self sufficiency and personal well being. This fund accounts for the operating activities of these initiatives. In 2011, the initiatives were Success By 6, Leadership Development Services, Homelessness, 211 Program, Action for Neighbourhood Change and Community Impact.

The statement of financial position represents the combined position of all the funds of the organization.

shoRt-teRM inVestMents

Short-term investments are recorded at fair value.

inVentoRY

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is generally determined on the first-in, first-out basis.

long-teRM inVestMents

The long-term investment in the joint venture is recorded on the equity basis. Under this method, the investment is initially recorded at cost and is increased for the proportionate share of any post-acquisition earnings and is decreased for any post-acquisition losses. Other long-term investments are recorded at fair value.

CApitAl Assets

Capital assets are recorded at cost. Amortization based on the estimated useful life of the asset is as follows:

Furniture and equipment 20% diminishing balance basis or 10 years straight-line basis

telephone system 30% diminishing balance basis

Computer equipment 30% diminishing balance basis or 2 to 3 years straight-line basis

Computer software 2 years straight-line basis

leasehold improvements 10 years straight-line basis

In the year of acquisition, amortization is calculated on capital assets at half-rates.

ReVenue ReCognition

The organization conducts a public campaign for funds during the last quarter of each calendar year in order to fund programs and to identify and work on issues for the subsequent fiscal year. Accordingly, campaign revenue of the current year is deferred to the subsequent fiscal year. All allocations that are scheduled to be disbursed more than twelve months after the current year-end are financed from the subsequent year’s campaign.

Pledges receivable at the end of the year reflect amounts outstanding from the preceding campaign, less an allowance for pledge losses. Allowances are provided for amounts estimated to be uncollectible. The organization’s accounting policy for recording current campaign pledges is on the cash

basis. This policy conforms with that adopted by the majority of United Way organizations.

Other unrestricted contributions are recognized as revenue of the Operating Fund in the year received or receivable if the amount to be received can be reasonably estimated and collection is reasonably assured. Primary sources of other unrestricted contributions recognized as revenue during the year are funds transferred to and from other United Ways,community special events, areas of service designations, investment income and grants.

Restricted contributions related to operations are recognized as revenue of the Operating Fund in the year in which the related expenses are incurred.

donAted Assets, MAteRiAls And seRViCes

Volunteers contribute a substantial number of hours each year to assist the organization in carrying out its activities. Because of the difficulty of determining the fair value, contributions of such services are not recognized in the financial statements.

The organization receives gifts in kind from some donors,primarily for campaign costs

of printing, supplies and public relations. These amounts are excluded from revenues and expenditures.

FinAnCiAl instRuMents

All financial assets and liabilities are classified according to their characteristics, management’s intention, or the choice of category in certain circumstances. All financial assets must be classified as either held-for-trading, held-to-maturity, available-for-sale or loans and receivables. Financial liabilities must be classified as held-for-trading or other liabilities. Financial assets and liabilities that are purchased and incurred with the intention of generating profits in the near term are classified as held-for-trading, and are accounted for at fair value with the change in the fair value recognized in the results of operations. Those instruments that have a fixed maturity date, where the organization intends and has the ability to hold to maturity, are classified as held-to-maturity and accounted for at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Loans and receivables are also accounted for at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. When initially recognized, all financial assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value on the statement of financial position. In subsequent periods, financial instruments will be valued at fair value,

except for items that are classified in the following categories, which will be measured at amortized cost. These categories are loans and receivables,investments held-to-maturity and financial liabilities not held-for-trading purposes.

An allowance for impairment that is other than temporary for financial assets categorized as loans and receivables and investments held-to-maturity is recognized in the statement of operations.

The organization has classified all financial assets as loans or receivables, with the exception of cash and bank, short-term investments and long-term investments. Cash and bank, short-term investments and long-term investments have been classified as held-for-trading. Gains and losses are recognized in investment income in the period in which they arise. The organization has classified all financial liabilities as other liabilities.

The organization assesses at each statement of financial position date whether a financial asset carried at cost is impaired. If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss exists, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced and the amount of the loss is recognized in investment income.

The organization has a one-third interest in a joint venture, the 417 Bagot Group, as detailed in Note 4 to these financial statements. The organization rents premises from the joint venture as disclosed in Note 15.

These transactions are in the normal course of operations and are measured at the exchange value (the amount of consideration established and agreed to by the related parties), which approximates the arm’s length equivalent value.

17. eMploYeR-eMploYee gRoup plAn

The organization is a participant in a group registered retirement savings plan. The organization contributes, on behalf of each eligible employee, an amount equal to the employee’s contribution to a maximum of 5% of earnings. During the year, the organization expensed $24,902 under this group registered retirement savings plan arrangement.

18. FAiR VAlue oF FinAnCiAl instRuMents

The organization’s financial instruments consist of cash and bank, short-term investments, pledges receivable, accounts receivable, long-term investments, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and monies held in trust. These financial instruments are equivalent to their respective carrying values given the short-term nature of the accounts.

Investments are measured at fair value on the balance sheet as quoted by investment brokers. As at December 31, 2011, a fair value adjustment to long-term investments resulted in an unrealized gain (loss) of $(26,268) (2010 - $33,947). This amount has been included in investment income (loss) on the statement of operations.

Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the organization is not exposed to significant currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

As a result of holding financial instruments, the organization is exposed to investment risk, market risk and interest rate risk. The following is a description of those risks and how the organization manages its exposure to them.

(a) investment risk management

Risk management relates to the understanding and active management of risks associated with all areas of the business and the associated operating environment. Investments are primarily exposed to interest rate and market risks. The organization mitigates these risks with an investment policy designed to limit exposure and concentration while achieving optimal return within reasonable risk tolerances.

(b) Market and interest rate risk

The risks associated with the investments are the risks associated with the securities in which the funds are invested. The value of equity securities changes with stock market conditions, which are affected by general economic and market conditions. The value of securities will vary with developments within the specific companies or governments which issue the securities. The value of fixed income securities will generally rise if interest rates fall and fall if interest rates rise. Changes in interest rates may also affect the value of equity securities.

19. Re-AlloCAtion oF AdMinistRAtion expendituRes

General management and administrative expenditures are re-allocated between fundraising expenditures, program expenditures, and Community Impact Initiatives fund expenditures based on the organization’s budget allocation at the beginning of the year in which the administrative expenditures are incurred.

20. MAnAgeMent oF CApitAl

The organization defines its capital as the amounts included in its fund balances.

The organization sets the amount of fund balances in proportion to risk, manages the fund/net asset structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets.

The organization’s objective when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to sustain itself as a going concern so that it can continue to provide the appropriate level of benefits and services to its beneficiaries and stakeholders.

A portion of the organization’s capital is restricted in that the organization is required to meet certain requirements to utilize its externally and internally restricted fund balances, as described in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies under Fund Accounting for the Endowment Fund and in note 10 for Reserves. The organization has internal control processes to ensure that the restrictions are met prior to the utilization of these resources and has been in compliance with these restrictions throughout the year.

Management and the Board of Directors carefully consider fundraising campaigns, grants, sponsorship and investment income to ensure that sufficient funds will be available to meet the organization’s short and long-term objectives.

The organization monitors its financial performance against an annual budget. Surpluses from unspent operational activities are accumulated under the Operating Fund’s unrestricted fund balance. In the event that revenues decline, the organization will budget for reduced distributions and reduced operational expenditures.

Recent accounting pronouncements that have been issued, but are not yet effective, and have a potential implication for the organization are as follows. ACCounting stAndARds FoR not-FoR-pRoFit oRgAnizAtions (“Asnpo”)

The CICA is converging Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principals (“GAAP”) with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) over a transition period which will end in 2011. For fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2012, not-for-profit organizations are required to choose between two sets of standards: ASNPO or IFRS. The organization is expected to adopt ASNPO for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012, and the impact of the transition to ASNPO on the organization’s financial statements is in the process of being determined.
