CDC Foundation - Donor Report 2011

YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS TO CDC’S LIFE-SAVING WORK

FISCAL YEAR 2011REPORT TOCONTRIBUTORS

Message from the Chair of the Board of Directors

“We are proud to build partnerships on behalf of

CDC and we salute our dedicated CDC colleagues

who are the boots-on-the-ground, remaining ever

vigilant to keep America healthy, safe and secure.“

Dear Friends:

The CDC Foundation gratefully acknowledges the generous support of foundations, corporations, organizations and individuals. This support, totaling $49 million in the fi scal year beginning July 1, 2010, and ending June 30, 2011, enables the CDC Foundation to advance CDC’s 24/7 life-saving work to protect us all.

With your help, since 1995 the CDC Foundation has provided more than $350 million to support CDC’s work, launched more than 600 programs around the world and built a network of individuals and organizations committed to supporting CDC and public health. In FY 2011, the Foundation helped CDC make real progress in fi ghting threats like global disease and death from tobacco use, malaria, pneumococcal disease, viral hepatitis, and the health consequences of large-scale disasters.

Increasingly, partners that help fund a program with CDC through the CDC Foundation come back – either to expand CDC’s work in that area or to address a different health issue. We are encouraged by this trend. It confi rms that our involvement in building and managing programs adds signifi cant value to both CDC and our funding partners. We deeply appreciate partners like Pfi zer Inc, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Johns Hopkins University, Bloomberg Philanthropies and others who continue to invest their resources and pursue their philanthropic and program goals with us.

We are proud to build partnerships on behalf of CDC and we salute our dedicated CDC colleagues who are the boots-on-the-ground, remaining ever vigilant to keep America healthy, safe and secure. Your gifts are a powerful way to support CDC’s efforts to protect our nation from expensive and dangerous health threats. Thank you for your generous support.

Gary CohenChair, Board of Directors

Looking Back on a Successful Fiscal Year 2011

BUILDING ON SUCCESS

In FY 2011, the CDC Foundation’s accomplishments with the Bloomberg Initiative attracted additional partners committed to reducing tobacco use.

The CDC Foundation received $45,000 in gifts and in-kind contributions from the American Cancer Society, National Cancer Institute and University of Washington to improve tobacco quitline programs internationally.

And Pfi zer Inc provided a $1.2 million grant to increase business support for smoke-free restaurants and bars in the U.S.

Saving Lives by Reducing Tobacco Use

Our Impact – FY 2011 Highlights

A SOLID FOUNDATION

In the global fi ght against tobacco use, data is an important weapon. As a partner in the Bloomberg Initiative to Reduce Tobacco Use, the CDC Foundation enables CDC to work with countries around the world to collect data about adult tobacco use. The Foundation has successfully coordinated completion of the Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS) in more than a dozen countries, representing 675 million of the world’s smokers. By the end of 2012, a total of approximately 20 countries will have completed surveys.

Bloomberg Philanthropies has contributed more than $50 million to the Foundation to support the Initiative’s work over the last fi ve years, and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has contributed an additional $3 million to support the Initiative’s work in Africa and China.

The CDC Foundation continued to grow support from the private sector for CDC’s work to improve prevention, screening and treatment of viral hepatitis. Chronic viral hepatitis is the leading cause of liver cancer and the most common reason for liver transplantation. Today more Americans die of hepatitis C than HIV.

In FY 2011, the CDC Foundation received a total of $6.25 million to support a series of research and education programs lead by CDC’s Division of Viral Hepatitis. Industry donors and community partners also participated in the Foundation’s Viral Hepatitis Action Coalition to help advance CDC’s hepatitis work. Coalition members include: Abbott Laboratories; Boehringer Ingelheim; Bristol-Myers Squibb; Genetech, A Member of the Roche Group; Gilead Sciences, Inc.; GlaxoSmithKline; Janssen Therapeutics; Merck Sharp & Dohme; National Viral Hepatitis Roundtable; OraSure Technologies; and Vertex Pharmaceuticals.

Our Impact – FY 2011 Highlights

Protecting People from Liver Disease Additional Major ContributionsCisco Systems and AT&T donated Telepresence and SmartNet communications and media equipment and services to help CDC communicate with partners in the fi eld and all over the world. The in-kind contribution was valued at $2.6 million.

Pneumonia kills more children around the world than any other disease. As a recipient of a grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health directed $2.44 million to the CDC Foundation to collaborate with CDC on a global childhood pneumonia study. The study will identify current and likely future causes of childhood pneumonia in some of the world’s hardest hit populations.

With federal funds from the National Institutes of Health, American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) – as the prime contractor for NIAID’s Microbiology and Infectious Disease Biological Research Resources Repository – continued support of CDC’s work to supply unique biological materials to malaria researchers all over the world through a $2 million, seven year agreement with the CDC Foundation.

Pfi zer will contribute $1.32 million to support The CDC Experience Applied Epidemiology Fellowship over the next fi ve years. The fellowship is a one-year program in applied epidemiology for medical students designed to increase the pool of physicians with a population health perspective.

In 2005 the CDC Foundation board adopted a new strategic initiative to strengthen the nation’s collective capacity to respond to disasters like Hurricane Katrina and 9/11. The result was the Meta-Leadership Summit for Preparedness, a fi ve-year initiative funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. The Summit connected thousands of business, government and nonprofi t leaders in communities nationwide to foster greater cross-sector collaboration during emergencies. The CDC Foundation partnered with CDC, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, the National Preparedness Leadership Initiative-Harvard School of Public Health and community partners to host the Summits. The CDC Foundation was able to leverage philanthropic support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to attract 100 sponsoring organizations at the state and local level. The initiative concluded in FY 2011. Planning guides for organizing meta-leadership activities in your community are available online at www.cdcfoundation.org/meta-leadership.

Summit Impact:

Connected more than 5,000 business, government and nonprofi t leaders

Reached 36 U.S. communities representing 139 million Americans

Engaged a total of 2,601 leaders in post-Summit meetings

Empowering Leaders in Times of Crisis

Our Impact – FY 2011 Highlights

A Special Thank You

At the conclusion of this successful initiative, we especially acknowledge our partners and colleagues at the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, the National Preparedness Leadership Initiative-Harvard School of Public Health and CDC.

In addition to adapting the meta-leadership training they had been conducting at Harvard for government leaders to provide the basis for the Meta-Leadership Summit series, Harvard faculty members Leonard J. Marcus, Ph.D., and Barry C. Dorn, M.D., M.H.C.M., traveled nationally, interviewed leaders to tailor the Summits to address local concerns, and presented at the Summits with consistently positive feedback from participants. CDC continued the work started at each Summit by developing and leading post-Summit activities and designed and implemented the evaluation framework for the Summit. Funding from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation made the fi ve-year initiative possible.

To all our partners in this important initiative, thank you for your vision, leadership and commitment to improving our nation’s preparedness.

Leonard J. Marcus, Ph.D., and Barry C. Dorn, M.D., M.H.C.M., National Preparedness Leadership Initiative-Harvard School of Public Health

The Margaret Ellerbe Mahoney Society

The CDC Foundation board of directors created The Margaret Ellerbe Mahoney Society in 1998 to honor Miss Mahoney for her service to the board and her vital support of Foundation initiatives since its inception. Miss Mahoney was a strong advocate of the Foundation until her passing in 2011. The Margaret Ellerbe Mahoney Society recognizes leadership donors who have given $1,000 or more in gifts or in-kind services during the year.

Deceased

Margaret Mahoney

Margaret Mahoney, a leader in American philanthropy, passed away on December 22, 2011. Margaret was a founding member and the second chair of the CDC Foundation board of directors. Widely respected in philanthropic circles as the “Grande Dame” of philanthropy, she devoted her career to working with philanthropies focused on health, education, arts and the humanities. She worked in key roles at the Carnegie Corporation of New York, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and The Commonwealth Fund. To honor her ongoing leadership and support, in 1998 the CDC Foundation board of directors created The Margaret Ellerbe Mahoney Society to recognize leadership donors.

Bob Keegan

Bob Keegan, former deputy director of CDC’s Global Immunization Division, passed away on January 16, 2012. Bob was a dedicated public servant and an ardent champion for global polio eradication. He helped the Foundation establish the Endowment for Global Health Priorities to support CDC’s work in polio and global health. And when Bob was honored with CDC’s distinguished William C. Watson Jr. Medal of Excellence, he donated his award money to establish the Polio Eradication Heroes Fund. The fund honors those seriously injured or killed while working on polio eradication with recognition and a cash award for their families. To express our gratitude for Bob’s extraordinary leadership and dedication, the Foundation renamed this fund in his honor: the Bob Keegan Polio Eradication Heroes Fund.

In the last year, we lost two dedicated

public health advocates and great and

loyal friends of the CDC Foundation –

Margaret Mahoney and Bob Keegan.

Each helped shape the CDC Foundation

and our impact on health in meaningful

and important ways. We are grateful

for their signifi cant contributions. They

are missed.

Tribute

“All of us at Pfi zer are proud to be partners with CDC and the CDC Foundation in protecting and strengthening health throughout America and around the world. Our nearly 15-year history of partnership, spanning a dozen projects, has helped CDC train more of the world’s best epidemiologists, explore the effects of landmark public health policies, and advance disease prevention and treatment efforts. CDC and CDC Foundation are true in their desire to attack health problems from new perspectives and to share information and expertise in the search for better health, right now.”

A CHILD’S FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE AGAINST MRSA:

A WELL-INFORMED MOM.

MRSA is Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, a potentially

dangerous type of staph bacteria that is resistant to certain antibiotics

and causes skin infections. You can get MRSA through direct contact

with an infected person or by sharing personal items, such as towels

or razors that have touched infected skin. If you or someone in your

family experiences these signs or symptoms, cover the area with a

bandage and contact your healthcare professional. It is especially

important to contact your healthcare professional if MRSA signs and

symptoms are accompanied by a fever.

Developed in partnership with the CDC Foundation, through an educational grant from Pfi zer, Inc.

For more information, please call 1-800-CDC-INFO or visit www.cdc.gov/MRSA.

What are the signs and symptoms

of an MRSA skin infection?

Most regular staph skin infections,

including MRSA, appear as a bump or

infected area on the skin that is:

> Red

> Swollen

> Painful

> Warm to the touch

> Full of pus or other drainage

> Accompanied by a fever

Looking ForwardDear Partners:

CDC is dedicated to a single mission: protecting Americans from health, safety and security threats, both foreign and domestic. That’s a big mission. Even when the economy is strong, CDC scientists have a long “if only” list. If only there were more resources, we could expand a successful immunization program to save more lives. With just a little more funding, we could launch a new program to protect people from disease. In today’s tough economy, that “if only” list is getting longer.

CDC Foundation partnerships expand possibilities for CDC. With private-sector resources from foundations, corporations, organizations and individuals, the CDC Foundation helps CDC launch new programs, expand existing programs that show promise, or demonstrate success with a pilot project before scaling it up. In each partnership, external support gives CDC experts the fl exibility to quickly and effectively connect with the right partners, information and technology needed to protect people and save lives.

During a recent strategic planning effort, we looked at how we could build on our history of success serving as a bridge between CDC and the private sector to have even greater impact for CDC. In doing so, we posed our own “if only” statement. If only more corporate leaders understood what CDC does and why it is important. In response, we added a new strategy to our core business. We are reaching out to a wider spectrum of leaders in the private sector and educating them about CDC’s vital role in protecting American businesses and communities from health and security threats.

Through unique, behind-the-scenes experiences at CDC and engaging interactions with CDC leaders and scientists, we hope to move private- sector leaders from knowledge about CDC’s work, to admiration for CDC’s people and programs, to action – exploring partnership opportunities with CDC and sharing what they have learned about CDC with their colleagues. We believe the initiative will strengthen support and resources for CDC and create unique opportunities for our partners to engage with CDC in ways that meet both their philanthropic and business objectives.

As government resources for CDC and its partners at the state and local levels diminish, our role – and the role of the private sector – become increasingly important. CDC protects all of us. Thank you for working with us to fi ll funding gaps and provide valuable fl exibility for CDC. With the world a dangerous place, we need CDC. And CDC needs you.

Best Regards,

Charles StokesPresident and CEO
