MARSHALL SECRETARY OF STATE Each December, the North Carolina Department of the Secretary of State Charitable Solicitation Licensing (CSL) Division issues the Charitable Solicitation Licensing Division Annual Report. The Report is released at the holiday season to provide the public with this important information as they make decisions to give to charity. This report relates only to those charities using a professional fund-raiser and otherwise required by law to register with the Department of the Secretary of State. Even though we all continue to experience difficult economic times, North Carolinians continued to show their generosity through gifts to charities over the past year. This year, North Carolinians responded to solicitations from professional fund-raisers in the amount of $26,716,762. Of those donation dollars, $13,223,329 went directly to the charity for which the campaign was being conducted, resulting in an average 49.49% return to the charity for each dollar donated. In contrast, national solicitation campaigns that included North Carolina citizens and were reported to our office reflected $473,581,137 in gross dollars donated, with only $220,310,970, or 46.52% of each donated dollar actually going to the charitable organization. Slightly more of each dollar donated in North Carolina was returned to the charity for which the campaign was conducted. As a consumer, you have the right to know how your donated dollars will benefit the charity for which an appeal is conducted. The percentage return per dollar for each individual solicitor campaign conducted and reported to CSL is included in this Report and so that consumers can utilize this information to make wise giving decisions. The CSL Enforcement Unit continues to work on behalf of North Carolina citizens to identify organizations that may be violating North Carolina’s Charitable Solicitation laws. When an organization is identified as noncompliant, our Department informs the organization of the legal requirements and works to bring the organization into compliance. Sometimes though, a violation is beyond a compliance issue at which point the Department imposes financial penalties on behalf of the public to amend the situation. This year, the Department completed 149 investigations, identifying 93 violations of the Charitable Solicitations Act and resulting in the collection of $136,550 in financial penalties from charitable organizations and professional fund raisers. I encourage all North Carolinians to utilize the information available in the Annual Report and via this office’s website at www.sosnc.com to make informed giving decisions. I commend and thank the citizens of North Carolina for their continued generosity to the charities working throughout our great State. Yours truly, Elaine F. Marshall PO BOX 29622 ∙ RALEIGH, NC 27626-0622 Mission Statement The mission of the North Carolina Department of the Secretary of State is to serve and protect the citizens, the business community, and governmental agencies by facilitating business activities, by providing accurate and timely information, and by preserving documents and records. The purpose of the Charitable Solicitation Licensing Division is to maintain a registry of charitable and sponsor organizations licensed to solicit donations within the state. In addition, the Division licenses professionals who fundraise on behalf of charitable or sponsor organizations. The Division also responds to consumer concerns regarding charitable solicitations and works to enforce the Charitable Solicitation Law on behalf of all North Carolinians. The Charitable Solicitation Licensing Annual Report is published by the Charitable Solicitation Licensing Division to serve as a resource for North Carolina citizens as they work to make educated decisions for their charitable dollars.

Dupree, Office Assistant The North Carolina Department of the Secretary of State does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, religion, age, or disability in the employment or the provision of services. Section One: Executive Summary of Professional Solicitor Activities The Executive Summary serves as an overview of the percentage of contributions charities receive from professional fundraisers. This information has been entered un-audited from final accounting reports filed by the fundraisers with the Charitable Solicitation Licensing Division of the North Carolina Department of the Secretary of State. Some final accounting reports filed with the Department reflect planned giving campaigns that may not immediately realize results. This section of the Annual Report reflects two significantly different sets of data. The first set of data reflects reported solicitation activities and contributions solely from North Carolina citizens. The second set of data in this section reflects data reported for national solicitation campaigns that include North Carolina citizens. Individual final accounting reports provided by a filing organization should be consulted to obtain the most complete and thorough information. In both sections, the Report is sorted alphabetically by the name of the professional solicitor. To obtain a copy of a final accounting report on record with the Charitable Solicitation Licensing Division, go to www.sosnc.com, click on “Charitable Solicitations”, and then click on “Search Our Registry.” In the Search box, enter the name of the professional solicitor whose financial information you seek. Once the CSL Search Results box appears, click on the solicitor’s name to access the file. When the file appears, click on “Campaign Information” (this will be at the bottom of the page). Go to the most recent year’s filings and click on the folder icon. If a final accounting report is on file, it will appear in the filing under the title “Final Accounting.” You will be able to view a PDF version of the final accounting report on file with the Department. (Note: The information in this section does not include data representative of staff level fundraising professionals employed directly by charitable organizations in the State.)

  • PARTICIPANT INFORMATION SHEET DAN Rebreather Study 2020 - Caustic Cocktail IRB #025-20-20 (Expiry: 2021-08-05)
    PARTICIPANT INFORMATION SHEET DAN Rebreather Study 2020 - Caustic Cocktail IRB #025-20-20 (expiry: 2021-08-05) CONCISE SUMMARY This survey aims to collect data from rebreather divers regarding their experiences with caustic cocktail(s) while diving. You qualify for participation in this study if you are a certified rebreather diver and you have experienced a caustic cocktail or dived with someone who experienced a caustic cocktail. There are no individual benefits and no currently foreseeable risks to you in participating in this study. If you are interested in learning more about the study, please continue reading and review the following pages carefully before agreeing to participate. INTRODUCTION You are invited to complete a short survey about rebreather diving. The study is entirely sponsored by DAN. PURPOSE OF THE STUDY The purpose of this study is to collect information from adult rebreather divers and their experiences with a “Caustic Cocktail”. BACKGROUND When water mixes with the carbon-dioxide absorbent in rebreathers, e.g. due to a leak in the unit, a solution of caustic soda is produced. When a diver ingests this poisonous mixture, known as a “Caustic Cocktail”, it is important to provide appropriate first aid. It is uncertain how common suffering a caustic cocktail is among certified rebreather divers, or what immediate first-aid treatments are being employed. This survey will gather information on rebreather divers and their diving experience, including whether they have suffered a caustic cocktail event and how it was treated. HOW THE STUDY WORKS Certified rebreather divers aged 18 years or older at the time of completing the survey are invited to participate.
