“Board reviews 990 during their annual meeting”
“Cave canem requires its board members to conduct business according to the highest ethical standards. Business dealings that appear to create a conflict between the interests of cave canem and a board member are unacceptable. Board members must disclose any possible conflicts to the executive committee of the board so that the committee may assess and prevent potential conflicts of interest from arising. If conflicts of interest are determined to exist, board members with such potential or actual conflicts of interest are barred from participating in deliberations and/or voting with respect to affected transactions.”
“The executive committee sets compensation based on budget, industry standards and experience of the employee. The executive committee brings the compensation arrangement to the full board of directors for final approval upon recommendation by the executive committee, via a detailed annual budget.”
“Executive director presents a salary range to the executive committee, and conferring with the human resources committee chair, sets compensation based on budget, industry standards and experience of the employee. Compensation is approved by the board as part of the budget ratification process.”
“Cave canem foundation makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon demand.”
