We have audited the accompanying statements of financial position of Chicago Volunteer Legal Services Foundation (a not-for-profit corporation) as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of activities, functional expenses and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Organization’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Chicago Volunteer Legal Services Foundation as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, and the changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTE A – NATURE OF ACTIVITIES AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Cash

Nature of Activities Chicago Volunteer Legal Services Foundation (“the Foundation”) is organized as an Illinois not-for-profit corporation. Its purpose is to administer programs to assist in securing legal assistance and related service for persons of low income in the Chicagoland area. The Foundation’s support comes primarily from individual and corporate contributions, foundations, and law firms, as well as fundraising activities.

Financial Statement Presentation Financial statement presentation follows the recommendations of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”). As specified in FASB ASC 958, Not-for-Profit Entities, the Foundation is required to report information regarding its financial position and activities according to three classes of net assets: unrestricted, temporarily restricted, and permanently restricted net assets. Unrestricted net assets are net assets not subject to donor-imposed stipulations on their use in the Foundation’s operations, as reported in the statements of activities. Temporarily restricted net assets are donor contributions with stipulations that are to be met by actions of the Foundation or others and/or the passage of time. When a donor restriction expires, temporarily restricted net asset are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and reported in the Statement of Activities as released from restrictions. Restrictions fulfilled in the same period as the funds were received are classified as unrestricted net assets. Permanently restricted net assets are subject to donor-imposed restrictions that they be maintained permanently by the Foundation. Generally, the donors of these assets permit the Foundation to use all or part of the income earned on related investments and/or unrestricted income for the Foundation’s operations.

Contributions Contributions are recognized when the donor makes a promise to give to the Foundation that is, in substance, unconditional. All contributions are considered to be available for unrestricted use unless specifically restricted by the donor. Amounts received that are designated for future periods, or restricted by the donor for specific purposes, are reported as temporarily restricted or permanently restricted support that increases those net asset classes.

Cash includes petty cash and amounts deposited in the checking account and custodial account. Amounts deposited in the custodial account are required to be maintained in a separate account.

Contributions and Other Receivables Total contributions and other receivables were $0 and $71,015 at June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. They are composed primarily of contributions and grants and are deemed to be fully collectable by management based on historical experience.

Property and Equipment Property and equipment are reported at original cost. All property and equipment purchases in excess of $750 for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, were capitalized, while lesser amounts were charged to expense. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets (5 to 8 years). Depreciation expense was $12,513 for the year ended June 30, 2011, and $15,923 for the year ended June 30, 2010.

Functional Allocation of Expenses The costs of providing various programs and other activities have been detailed in the statements of functional expenses. The costs have been summarized in the statements of activities. Accordingly, certain costs have been allocated among the programs and supporting services benefits.

Comparative Financial Information The financial statements include certain prior-year summarized comparative information in total, but not by detail and net asset class. Such information does not include sufficient detail to constitute a presentation in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, such information should be read in conjunction with the Foundation’s financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2010 from which the summarized information was derived.

Income Taxes

Donated marketable securities are recorded as contributions at their estimated fair value at the date of donation and adjusted to market value at the end of the year. Donated shares at June 30, 2011 and 2010, were valued at $4,961, and $9,817, respectively.

The Foundation is not-for-profit entity as described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Service Code (“IRC”) and is exempt from federal and state income taxes for related income. It qualifies for a charitable contribution deduction in regard to its donors, and is subject to income taxes only to the extent of unrelated business income. In addition, per letter dated March 1972, the Internal Revenue Service has determined that the Foundation is a public foundation within the meaning of Section 509(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Donated Services

Use of Estimates

Donated Assets

The programs of the Foundation utilize volunteered legal services, which are provided directly to beneficiaries of the Foundation. No amounts have been reflected in the financial statements for donated volunteers’ time because the criteria under FASB ASC 958, Not-for-Profit Entities, have not been satisfied. However, a substantial number of volunteers have donated significant amounts of time towards activities of the Foundation. 72

The presentation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE B – INVESTMENTS

NOTE C – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Investments in marketable securities with readily determinable fair values and all investments in debt securities are reported at their fair values, certifications of deposit are value at the bank valuation, in the statements of financial position. Unrealized gains and losses are included in the change in net assets. Investment income and gains are reported as increases in unrestricted net assets in the reporting period in which the income and gains are recognized.

Effective January 1, 2008, the Foundation adopted FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. FASB ASC 820, which establishes a single definition of fair value and framework for measuring fair value, sets out a fair value hierarchy to be used to classify the source of information used in fair value measurements, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements required under other accounting pronouncements. It does not change existing guidance as to whether or not an instrument is carried at fair value.

Investments consist of the following:

Fair value is the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The following fair value hierarchy is used in selecting inputs, with the highest priority given to Level 1, as these are the most transparent or reliable. JUNE 30, 2011

NOTE D – NET ASSETS

NOTE E – PERMANENTLY RESTRICTED NET ASSETS AND FSP FAS 117-1

Temporarily Restricted

The Foundation received an initial endowment (“the Endowment”) in 1993 in the amount of $200,000; and the Foundation has raised additional funds from various contributions to this endowment fund in the amount of $126,549. The Endowment has been established as a permanently restricted fund for which the income may be used to support the Foundation’s operations and activities, per the donor gift instrument.

Temporarily restricted net assets are as follows: JUNE 30 2011 2010 Guardian Ad Litem $ – $ 35,000 Access to Justice – 35,000 Legal Server-Special Project – 28,419 Mediation Program 15,273 – $ 15,273 $ 98,419

Permanently Restricted Permanently restricted net assets of $326,549 at June 30, 2011 and 2010, were restricted to investment in perpetuity, the income from which is expendable to support the Foundation’s operations and activities.

In August 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Staff Position FSP FAS 117-1, Endowments of Not-for Profit Organizations: Net Asset Classification of Funds Subject to an Enacted Version of the Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act, and Enhanced Disclosures for All Endowment Funds (“FSP FAS 117-1”). This standard provides guidance on classification of donor-restricted endowment funds for a notfor-profit organization that is subject to an enacted version of the Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act of 2006 (“UPMIFA”) and provides other disclosures about an organization’s endowment funds. The State of Illinois adopted UPMIFA on June 30, 2009, and the following disclosures are being made in accordance with the requirements contained in FSP FAS 117-1 which were incorporated into FASB ASC 958:

Description of the Governing Board’s Interpretation of the Law(s) that Underlie the Organization’s Net Asset Classification of Donor-Restricted Endowment Funds The Board of the Foundation has interpreted the Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act as requiring the preservation of the fair value of the original gift as of the gift date of the donor-restricted endowment funds, absent explicit donor stipulations to the contrary. As a result of this interpretation, the Foundation would classify as permanently restricted net assets (a) the original value of the funds donated to the permanent endowment, (b) the original value of subsequent gifts to the permanent endowment, and (c) accumulations of the permanent endowment made in accordance with the direction of the applicable donor gift instrument at the time the accumulation is added to the funds. The remaining portion of the donor-restricted endowment fund not classified in permanently restricted net assets would be classified as temporarily restricted net assets until those amounts were approved for expenditure by the organization in a manner consistent with the standard of prudence prescribed by UPMIFA. In accordance with UPMIFA, the Foundation considers the following factors in making a determination to appropriate or accumulate donor-restricted endowment funds: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7)

The duration and preservation of the Endowment, The purposes of the Organization and the donor-restricted Endowment, General economic conditions, The possible effect of inflation and deflation, The expected total return from income and appreciation of investments, Other resources of the Organization, The investment policies of the Organization.

As provided by UPMIFA, its guidelines for expenditure of a donor-restricted endowment funds apply in the absence of overriding, explicit donor stipulations. Specific provisions of donor gift instruments will take precedence over the general default provisions of UPMIFA, and these have been specified in the first paragraph of this note. 76
