Mission and programs · 2022
Mission
To make grants and carry on other activities to support and benefit the Robert W. Woodruff Health Sciences Center, a division of Emory University which includes its schools of medicine, nursing, and public health and its medical research laboratories and hospitals.
-
More than half of the annual funding distributed by the Woodruff Fund was designated to support the programs and facilities of the Winship Cancer Institute at Emory University. Winship is Georgia's only NCI-designated comprehensive cancer center. Woodruff Fund grants were used to recruit and retain faculty for dual appointments at Emory's medical school and the Winship Cancer Institute and to fund significant faculty research projects in cancer prevention, detection and treatment. More than one-third of the funds dedicated to support programs are used to support Winship's clinical trials program. Other significant allocations of program funds were made for information technology and data management, support of Winship's biostatistics and bioinformatics programs, and for supporting Winship's administration, shared resources, and its NCI cancer center support grant. Almost half of the distributions to Winship are allocated to pay for facilities.
Expenses $20,282,504 · Grants $20,200,000
-
Woodruff Fund grants supported strategic academic and research initiatives in the medical institutions that make up Emory's Woodruff Health Sciences Center. Significant support during this fiscal year was directed to Emory's School of Medicine to support an innovation awards grant program and Basic Science Task Force; to Emory's Global Health Institute; and to support new recruits to lead programs in radiochemistry, artificial intelligence, and diabetes research. A significant portion of the Woodruff Fund's support was also used to sustain a "Synergy Awards" program designed to encourage collaborative investigations across the Health Sciences Center's institutions. Additional support was provided for strategic investments in Emory's Rollins School of Public Health; the Yerkes Primate Research Center; the Georgia Clinical and Translational Sciences Alliance; and Emory's Immunology and Vaccine Research Center. A significant portion of the distributions to Emory's Woodruff Health Sciences Center are used to pay for facilities, including Emory's biomedical research facilities and School of Medicine building.
Expenses $19,880,870 · Grants $19,800,000
-
The Woodruff Fund oversees a separate investment account intended to grow research capacity for the Emory + Children's Pediatric Research Institute. In this fiscal year, the Fund disbursed almost $6 million toward a multi-year plan to recruit pediatric investigators focused on childhood cancer, cardiac and brain medicine, Sickle Cell disease, and Cystic Fibrosis.
Expenses $6,008,581 · Grants $5,984,140

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
