The Congressional Award Foundation, formed in 1979, is a private, nonprofit, tax-exempt organization that promotes excellence among youth in public service, personal development, and physical fitness. GAO audited the Foundation's 1997 and 1996 financial statements and found that (1) they were reliable in all material respects; (2) the Foundation's management fairly stated that internal controls effectively safeguarded assets from material loss, ensured compliance with laws and regulations, and ensured that no material misstatements appeared in the financial statements; and (3) there was no reportable noncompliance with laws and regulations. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-AIMD-98-153/html/GAOREPORTS-AIMD-98-153.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-AIMD-98-153/pdf/GAOREPORTS-AIMD-98-153.pdf GAO/AIMD-98-153 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-AIMD-98-153 Letter Report GAO/AIMD-98-153; Financial Audit: Congressional Award Foundation's 1997 and; Financial statement audits Financial management Internal controls Foundations (organizations) Financial records Funds management Accounting procedures Title 2 Section 807 2 U.S.C. 807
