In 1983, a national board was convened to distribute these funds through the Emergency Food and Shelter Program (EFSP), a separate congressionally authorized program of FEMA, which is not consolidated into the organization's financial statements. United Way Worldwide (UWW) was appointed fiscal agent for EFSP. In addition to UWW, other members of the national board include the American Red Cross; Catholic Charities USA; the Jewish Federations of North America; the National Council of Churches of Christ in the U.S.A.; the Salvation Army; and FEMA. As fiscal agent, UWW is the custodian of the funds and is responsible for the administration and disbursement of grants as directed by the national board. UWW charged certain administrative expenses to EFSP totaling $304,000 and $293,000 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. In 2016 and 2015 approximately $70,751,400 and $112,842,300, respectively, were distributed in the form of grants to other charitable organizations. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, undistributed balances of $3,954,273 and $2,722,799, respectively, were included in custodial funds, with a corresponding liability in the consolidated statements of financial position of UWW.
