According to the National Right to Life Committee audit of April 30, 2022 (Note 12, Management's Plans to Improve the Committee's Financial Condition): "Over the previous three fiscal years, National Right to Life has undertaken a complete revamp of its membership and prospect fundraising programs, which has resulted in an increase in income and better cash flow, as well as an increase in new donors. "The Management Fundraising Plan for FY 2021-2022 called for three planned mailings specifically to long-lapsed donors to reactivate them and bring them back onto the current donor file, as well as three direct mail campaigns to prospective donors and two phoning campaigns to prospective donors. As anticipated, these efforts resulted in the reactivation of 2,146 long-lapsed donors and the acquisition of 3,687 new donors, all of which allowed the organization to keep pace with its current list attrition rate.

According to the National Right to Life Committee and Its Interrelated Entities consolidated audit of April 30, 2022 (Note 15, Significant Uncertainties and Risks): "The COVID-19 pandemic, whose effects first became known in January 2020, is having a broad and negative impact on commerce and financial markets around the world. Certain sectors of U.S. and global markets have experienced significant declines from uncertainty caused by the pandemic. The Organization is closely monitoring its investment portfolio and its liquidity and is actively working to minimize the impact of these declines. The extent of the impact of the pandemic on the Organization's operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and its impacts on the Organization's donors, employees and vendors, all of which, at present [September 27, 2022], cannot be determined. Accordingly, the extent to which the pandemic may impact the Organization's financial position, changes in net assets, and cash flow is uncertain, and the accompanying [audited] consolidated financial statements include no adjustments related to the effects of this pandemic. "The Organization invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market, and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported on the [audited] consolidated statements of financial position." |
