“The organization does not have any committees with authority to act on behalf of the governing board.”

“The campaign for cardinal spellman high school foundation has its form 990 prepared by an outside accounting firm and has established the following review process to ensure that the information reported is complete and accurate. When the form 990 has been prepared, reviewed by management and is ready to be filed with the internal revenue service, it is electronically sent to the board members of the organization for any comments. Any comments on the return are provided to the outside accountants. Each issue is documented and addressed until the return is finalized and approved for filing.”

“The organization's conflict of interest policy is applicable to all director, principal officer, or member of a committee with governing board delegated powers. Conflict of interest disclosures are required annually. If a conflict were to arise, the board member would meet with the president of the board and the president of the school. The issue would be addressed immediately and the interested person would be recused from voting. The minutes of the governing board and all committees with board delegated powers shall contain: a. The names of the persons who disclosed or otherwise were found to have a financial interest in connection with an actual or possible conflict of interest, the nature of the financial interest, any action taken to determine whether a conflict of interest was present, and the governing board's or committee's decision as to whether a conflict of interest in fact existed. B. The names of the persons who were present for discussions and votes relating to the transaction or arrangement, the content of the discussion, including any alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement, and a record of any votes taken in connection with the proceedings.”
