“Each director reviews the form 990 and is given the opportunity to ask questions before it is filed.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 12C

“Disclosure in the organization should be made to the executive director (or if she or he is the one with the conflict, then to the board chair), who shall bring the matter to the attention of the board. Disclosure involving directors should be made to the board chair, (or if she or he is the one with the conflict, then to the board vice-chair) who shall bring these matters to the board. The board shall determine whether a conflict exists and in the case of an existing conflict, whether the contemplated transaction may be authorized as just, fair, and reasonable to mdc. The decision of the board on these matters will rest in their sole discretion, and their concern must be the welfare of mdc and the advancement of its purpose.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 15A
