“In proposing and determining a competitive and equitable salary for fs feminista's ceo, a review of the compensation paid to ceo's at leading organizations with similar budget and size was considered. Survey data from the prm non-profit executive compensation survey reflecting organizations in nyc with operating budgets of $15m-$29.9m was considered a good reference point for fs feminista. This data was shared with our board chairperson and vice chairperson for review and consideration. The board chair and the board agreed with the compensation data provided by the independent consultant. Thus, our ceo salary increase reflects this recommendation. The deliberation and decision of ceo's compensation was contemporaneously documented in a memo between the board chair, vice-chair, and ceo. This work was conducted in 2024. For other key personnel and all teams at the organization, in 2021-2022 we hired an independent compensation expert to review our jobs and develop our current salary bands (which includes all positions at the organization) based on reliable data from international ngos operating with the same budget and comparable in size. The compensation was approved by the board and contemporaneously documented in the minutes.”

“The organization's form 990 is initially prepared by an independent accounting firm based on information provided by the organization's finance department in consultation with the organization's staff. The finance department and the organization's ceo then review and approve the draft return. The draft return is then provided to the entire board prior to filing with the internal revenue service.”

“The organization has a conflict of interest policy in place. Directors are required to confirm their compliance periodically. All new employees are required to submit a conflict of interest questionnaire, at the time of hiring, to human resources disclosing any outside affiliations. In addition, directors and employees are required to disclose to human resources any outside affiliations or potential conflicts of interest as they arise throughout the year. Human resources and the board of directors review the outside affiliations to determine if there are any potential conflicts of interest or violations of the conflict of interest policy. If so, appropriate action is taken to resolve any such conflicts or violations, including causing a director to recuse himself or herself from discussion and voting on the issue and causing an employee to terminate his/her outside affiliation or taking appropriate disciplinary action.”

“Ippfwhr's (dba fos feminista) audited financial statements and 990 tax returns are made available to the public through our website www.fosfeminista.org. In addition, upon request, the organization will make available only those documents required to be disclosed under the public inspection laws.”
