Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B

“The initial review is made by the president of the organization who provides a copy to the finance committee of the board of directors. A copy of the form 990 is provided to the finance committee prior to its submission to the irs. They forward any comments they have back to the president.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C

“Any director, principal officer, or member of a committee with governing board delegated powers, who has a direct or indirect financial interest, is covered under the policy. In connection with any actual or possible conflict of interest, an interested person must disclose the existence of the financial interest and be given the opportunity to disclose all material facts to the directors and members of committees with governing board delegated powers considering the proposed transaction or arrangement. After disclosure of the financial interest and all material facts, and after any discussion with the interested person, he/she must leave the governing board or committee meeting while the determination of a conflict of interest is discussed and voted upon. The remaining board or committee members decide whether a conflict of interest exists and act upon that decision. The president routinely reviews and approves all contracts and invoices to determine whether any interested person is connected with the transaction. In the event of a potential conflict of interest, the president will consult with the executive committee of the board to determine a course of action.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15A & B

“The executive committee of the board establishes compensation parameters which are guided by advice from colleagues in the not for profit field and then presented to the full board for review. This was last done in january 2019.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“The fund's financial statements are made available to the public upon request. The fund's governing documents and conflict of interest policy are not made available to the public. Forms 1023 and 1024 were filed on april 13, 1982, (filed before july 15, 1987), and therefore the fund does not need to make a copy of the exemption application available.”

IRS990/Desc0WITH THE FUNDING RECEIVED FROM USAID AND U.S DEPARTMENT OF STATE BUREAU OF POPULATION, REFUGEE AND MIGRATION, TIBET FUND WAS ABLE TO SUPPORT HEALTH CARE PROGRAMS AND SERVICES WITHIN TIBETAN COMMUNITIES IN INDIA AND NEPAL CONFRONTED WITH SEVERAL DIVERSE AND UNIQUE CHALLENGES THAT HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO FRAGMENT THE LONG-ESTABLISHED SETTLEMENT LIFE, THEREBY THREATENING THE LONG-TERM SUSTAINABILITY OF THE TIBETAN CULTURE AND IDENTITY ITSELF. INCREASING DEMOGRAPHIC AND OVERSEAS MIGRATION TRENDS, SCATTERED COMMUNITIES, INADEQUATE EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES, LACK OF INCOME-GENERATING ACTIVITIES, AND LACK OF ALTERNATIVE SOURCE OF LIVELIHOOD IN THE SETTLEMENTS HAVE ALL GIVEN WAY TO A NEW SET OF CHALLENGING SCENARIOS IN THE EXILED TIBETAN COMMUNITY. THE TIBET FUND PRIORITIZES STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS THAT ARE AIMED AT REVITALIZING THE TIBETAN SETTLEMENTS AND EMPOWERING THE TIBETAN COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE. IN ADDITION TO ALLEVIATING POVERTY AND DEPRIVATION THROUGH FUNDING AND PROGRAMMATIC SUPPORT FROM THE US GOVERNMENT AND OUR DONORS, WE WORK TO FACILITATE ECONOMIC SELF-SUFFICIENCY THROUGH INITIATIVES THAT PROMOTE ENTREPRENEURSHIP, SMALL ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT, EMPLOYMENT, AND JOB COMPETITIVENESS FOR UNEMPLOYED YOUTH. WE ALSO SUPPORT LOCAL GRASSROOTS TIBETAN NGOS AND CIVIL SOCIETY ORGANIZATIONS TO ADDRESS LOCAL COMMUNITY PRIORITIES AND ALSO TO REINFORCE THEIR EFFECTIVENESS IN DELIVERING SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND WELFARE SERVICES.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0FOR THE PAST 32 YEARS, WITH FUNDING FROM THE U.S. STATE DEPARTMENT FROM 1988, THE TIBET FUND'S TIBETAN SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM HAS ENABLED 459 TIBETAN REFUGEES TO EARN MASTERS DEGREES OR ONE-YEAR CERTIFICATES AT SOME OF THE COUNTRY'S FINEST ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0THE CENTRAL TIBETAN ADMINISTRATION IS FACED WITH THE TWO PRINCIPAL TASKS OF REHABILITATING NEWLY-ARRIVED REFUGEES FROM TIBET AND EMPOWERING THE TIBETAN COMMUNITY IN EXILE. DESPITE BUILDING A SUCCESSFUL REFUGEE COMMUNITY, THE EXILED TIBETAN COMMUNITY TODAY IS CONFRONTED WITH SEVERAL DIVERSE AND UNIQUE CHALLENGES THAT HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO FRAGMENT THE LONG-ESTABLISHED SETTLEMENT LIFE THEREBY THREATENING THE LONG-TERM SUSTAINABILITY OF THE TIBETAN CULTURE AND IDENTITY ITSELF. INCREASING DEMOGRAPHIC AND OVERSEAS MIGRATION TRENDS, SCATTERED COMMUNITIES, INADEQUATE EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES, LACK OF INCOME-GENERATING ACTIVITIES, AND ALTERNATIVE SOURCE OF LIVELIHOOD IN THE SETTLEMENTS, HAVE ALL GIVEN WAY TO A NEW SET OF CHALLENGING SCENARIOS IN THE EXILED TIBETAN COMMUNITY.
