Analysts' Notes
CharityWatch Analysts perform an in-depth analysis of charities' audited financial statements and IRS tax filings, and often review other documents such as state filings, annual reports, and fundraising contracts during their evaluations. Below are select notes that CharityWatch believes may be of interest to donors.
| According to the American Near East Refugee Aid (ANERA) audit of May 31, 2018 (Note 7, Gifts-in-Kind Contributions), ANERA recognized gifts-in-kind contributions in fiscal 2018 on which it placed a total value of $43,348,377. The gifts-in-kind received included $39,828,623 in donated drugs and medical supplies, according to the ANERA fiscal 2018 tax filing (IRS Form 990, Schedule M). [Note: CharityWatch generally excludes the value of in-kind (non-cash) donations of goods and services from its calculations of Program % and Cost to Raise $100. More information on how grades are calculated and the treatment of in-kind donations can be found on the Our Process page.] |
| According to the American Near East Refugee Aid (Anera) audit of May 31, 2018 (Note 1, Subsequent events): "Subsequent to May 31, 2018, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) notified Anera of their determination that a contractor became ineligible to receive payment. Anera has submitted a formal dispute to USAID in the matter." |
| According to the American Near East Refugee Aid (ANERA) audit of May 31, 2018 (Note 5, Accrued Benefits): "The law operative in Jerusalem, West Bank, Gaza and Lebanon dictates that upon retirement, an employee shall receive a defined end-of-service indemnity benefit. The benefit is calculated based on one month of the employee's salary rate as of the end-of-service and multiplied by the number of years of service. Accrued severance was $2,693,539 and $2,392,740 at May 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Of that, $2,693,539 and $2,392,740 was funded via money market funds included with cash and cash equivalents at May 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
