CREATING PARTNERSHIPS FOR A SAFER, HEALTHIER WORLD

2012 REPORT TO CONTRIBUTORS

Charles StokesPresident and CEO

Dear Friends:

At the CDC Foundation, we are grateful to our donors and partners who help us advance the

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) life-saving work in the United States and

throughout the world.

Thanks to you, the CDC Foundation has connected CDC with $396 million to support more than

600 CDC programs. These programs have advanced urgent public health priorities, ranging from

preparing our nation for disasters to improving access to safe water in some of the most remote

parts of the world.

In the 2011-2012 fi scal year, the CDC Foundation received more than $28 million from our

donors and partners. We are pleased to share some highlights from the past year, such as a

campaign to encourage baby boomers to get a hepatitis C test, initiatives centered on tobacco

surveillance and control and activities that ultimately improve human health.

Notably, in this report you will also learn more about our focus on three other program

categories from the past year: keeping patients safe from infections, preventing violence and

making motherhood safer. While CDC is one of the most highly respected government agencies,

many of the business and community leaders we know may not be familiar with CDC’s essential

roles in protecting our nation’s health security and supporting a healthy U.S. economy. So, as part

of our strategy, we are working to keep CDC front of mind for our nation’s business, civic and

nonprofi t leaders.

Thank you for joining with the CDC Foundation to help CDC do more, faster. We are pleased that

you recognize the value of a strong, well-resourced CDC, and greatly appreciate how you express

that recognition—through your generous support for CDC and its programs that protect U.S.

citizens and people around the world.

Gary Cohen, Chair, Board of Directors

> Reducing Tobacco UseWorldwide, tobacco use is the leading cause of preventable death, killing 6 million people annually. Internationally, the CDC Foundation is working with the Bloomberg Initiative to Reduce Tobacco Use to expand CDC’s Global Tobacco Surveillance System to 40 countries. Since the Bloomberg Initiative began in 2007, 31 countries have passed 100 percent smoke-free laws. Through a partnership with Pfi zer Inc, the CDC Foundation is helping CDC show the economic impact of smoke-free policies on U.S. businesses.

Program Highlights

> Flour Fortifi cationVitamin and mineral defi ciencies cause serious birth defects and contribute to maternal mortality. Working with partners Cargill, UNICEF, Micronutrient Initiative, Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition, Buhler AG, Bunge Ltd. and General Mills, the CDC Foundation has been a global partner in the Flour Fortifi cation Initiative, more than doubling the number of countries requiring fl our fortifi cation with iron or folic acid. In 2012, the Flour Fortifi cation Initiative celebrated its 10-year anniversary.

> Hepatitis TestingOne in 30 baby boomers is infected with hepatitis C and most don’t even know it. The CDC Foundation’s $6.25 million Viral Hepatitis Action Coalition has funded a video stories project, a multimedia “Know More Hepatitis” campaign and the Chronic Hepatitis Cohort Study, the largest cohort study of persons in care for viral hepatitis in the U.S. In 2012, CDC recommended that all baby boomers born between 1945 and 1965 should get a one-time test for hepatitis C; the fi rst ever Hepatitis Testing Day was May 19. Testing could identify more than 800,000 people with the disease and ultimately save more than 120,000 lives.

> Controlling Foodborne DiseaseA recent CDC report revealed that norovirus has been the nation’s leading cause of foodborne disease outbreaks in the last decade. A CDC Foundation partnership with North Carolina State University is helping CDC collaborate with the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the National Institute of Food and Agriculture to improve tools, skills and capacity to study foodborne viruses. This integrated approach will systematically identify risk factors and develop strategies to reduce contamination from farm to table.

Bloomberg Philanthropies, Partner with the Emergency

Obstetrics in Tanzania project

Making Motherhood Safer

“Bloomberg Philanthropies has a rewarding

partnership with CDC and the CDC Foundation…

CDC’s unparalleled evaluation expertise allows

us to better understand the impact of our investment,

enabling us to improve our intervention and provide

the best possible emergency obstetric care for mothers.”

Healthcare interventions before, during and after delivery can

save the lives of mothers and babies. The CDC Foundation

is working with healthcare providers and community health

workers to ensure that mothers and newborns have access to

care and are protected from potentially fatal infections and

complications during delivery.

Emergency Obstetrics in Tanzania

A collaborative effort between CDC’s Center for Global Health in

Tanzania and Division of Reproductive Health, in partnership with

Bloomberg Philanthropies, is working with the World Lung Foundation

to reduce maternal mortality in Tanzania by evaluating the program’s

intervention facilities.

Safe Delivery in Kenya

CDC’s Center for Global Health and partners in rural western Kenya

are providing transportation to healthcare facilities for expectant

mothers and ensuring that women giving birth in a facility or at home

have access to safe delivery kits and blood supplies.

Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS)

A collaboration between CDC and the Kellogg Foundation is collecting

state-specifi c, population-based data on maternal attitudes and

experiences before, during and after pregnancy with the goal of

improving maternal and infant health by closing racial/ethnic

disparities and increasing access to care.

mHealth in Tanzania

The mHealth Tanzania Partnership is helping to reduce maternal mortality

by providing informative text messages and appointment reminders in

Swahili for pregnant women and mothers of newborns as a part of a

national healthy pregnancy and safe motherhood multimedia campaign,

“Wazazi Nipendeni.”

Keeping Patients Safe

“By bringing together experts in oncology and

infection control to raise awareness of this

public health concern, we hope to empower

patients, their caregivers and healthcare providers

to take necessary steps to prevent infection.”

Sean Harper, M.D., Executive Vice President,

Research and Development, Amgen

Partner with the Reducing Infections in Cancer Patients project

Many infections in healthcare settings are preventable.

The CDC Foundation is working with patients, families and

healthcare providers to raise awareness and reduce the risk

of infection in patients.

Reducing Infections in Cancer Patients

A partnership with Amgen has developed a comprehensive education

campaign targeting cancer patients, their families and their providers

to help reduce the risk of patients developing infections during

chemotherapy treatment in outpatient offi ces, hospitals and homes.

This program has provided action steps and tools for patients, families

and healthcare providers including an educational website, print

materials and expert commentary through Medscape.

Safe Injection Practices Coalition (SIPC)

CDC Foundation is the coalition convener of the SIPC, comprised of 19

members. The Coalition developed the “One & Only Campaign” to raise

awareness among patients and healthcare providers about how single

dose vials are to be used for only one patient in an effort to eradicate

outbreaks resulting from unsafe injection practices. SIPC has created

educational resources for patients and training materials for providers,

including healthcare provider and state health department toolkits.

Each year, an estimated 60,000 patients are hospitalized for

infections from treatment associated with chemotherapy,

and a patient dies every two hours from this complication.

Violence Prevention

“…to prevent sexual violence

against children…there is simply

no information about how

widespread the problem is, so

we support collecting data at the

national level. Concrete action is

possible when we understand the

scope and scale of a problem.”

Former U.S. Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton

Advocate of the Together for Girls initiative

Domestic violence and violence against women and children

is a global epidemic. Prevention is crucial in stopping violence

before it starts. The World Health Organization estimates that

150 million girls under the age of 18 have experienced some

form of sexual violence. Studies also indicate that as many as

six out of 10 sexual assaults are committed against girls ages

15 and younger.

Together for Girls

The CDC Foundation is helping CDC in the global fi ght to end sexual

violence against girls. Funded by the Nduna Foundation, the United

Nations Population Fund and individual donors, this initiative is a

partnership between BD, Clinton Global Initiative, Grupo ABC, PEPFAR,

United Nations Development Programme, U.S. Department of State and

CDC’s National Center for Injury Prevention and Control. Data has led

to program implementation and interventions such as the introduction

of legislation, establishment of child-friendly courts and integration of

sexual offense units trained to work with children in police stations.

Saltzman Endowed Fund Award

As a partner with CDC’s National Center for Injury Prevention and Control

(NCIPC), the Linda Saltzman New Investigator Award recognizes an

outstanding new investigator working in the fi eld of domestic violence,

violence against women or dating violence. Futures Without Violence,

CDC and a committee of experts selects an individual to receive the

award every other year. Emily F. Rothman, Sc.D., Associate Professor,

Department of Community Health Sciences, Boston University School

of Public Health, received the award in 2012.

Evidence-Based Interventions in Violence Prevention

With support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, CDC is

expanding its violence prevention work by investigating how evidence-

based interventions to prevent violence are being implemented in the

fi eld and whether they make programs more effective. For example,

CDC is examining the Triple P (Positive Parenting Program) system to see

how it is working in U.S. communities and how to scale it up successfully.

Fiscal Year 2012 Report to Contributors

The CDC Foundation gratefully acknowledges the generous support of foundations,

corporations, organizations and individuals. This support, totaling $28 million in

the fi scal year beginning July 1, 2011 and ending June 30, 2012, enables the CDC

Foundation to help CDC do more, faster, to keep America healthy, safe and secure.

THE MARGARET ELLERBE MAHONEY SOCIETYThe CDC Foundation board of directors created The Margaret Ellerbe Mahoney Society in 1998

to honor Ms. Mahoney for her service to the board and her vital support of Foundation initiatives

since its inception. 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. Ms. Mahoney was a strong advocate of the

CDC 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.

Stephen Thacker, M.D., M.Sc., RADM/ASG (ret.), USPHS, formerly director of the Offi ce of Surveillance,

Epidemiology, and Laboratory Services at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC),

passed away on February 15, 2013. Throughout his distinguished 37-year career at CDC, Steve

contributed a legacy of extraordinary leadership and unyielding dedication and contributions to the

fi eld of epidemiology and to public health science. On his fi rst day as an Epidemic Intelligence Service

offi cer, Steve was sent out on an investigation to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, which turned out to be

the fi rst recognized Legionnaire’s epidemic. From that historic moment, Steve’s career embodied the

best of CDC’s commitment to science and to service. All of us at the CDC Foundation who knew him

knew how dedicated he was to his family, friends and community. He will be truly missed.

The Thacker Family has established the Stephen B. Thacker Fund at the CDC Foundation to honor

Steve’s life and service to public health as well as his passion for the Epidemic Intelligence Service.
