Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Line 11B: Form 990 Review Process

“Management reviewed a draft of the Form 990 with the audit/finance committee and provided edits to the tax preparer. This revised Form 990 (including required schedules), was provided to each voting member of the organization's governing body, for review prior to its filing with the IRS.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 12C: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of Conflicts

“The organization has a board approved Conflict of Interest policy. Each board member must fill out an annual declaration stating they had no conflicts or identifying the nature of their interested party transactions.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 15A: Compensation Review & Approval Process - CEO, Top Management

“Each year, the Board Executive Committee reviews comparable salaries and benefits based on examination of published data from comparable non-profit organizations. In addition, the Board conducts an annual review of the Executive Director's performance to determine if benchmark goals established during the prior year have been met. After review of the committee's findings and Board deliberation and discussion, the next year's salary and benefit package is voted on. The minutes of the Board of Directors reflect the nature of this process.”

IRS990/Desc0Research proposals are solicited on an annual basis and reviewed and ranked by panels of scientific and medical experts who comprise the Organization's "Scientific Review Committee" (SRC). All grants are selected on a competitive basis and awarded to the institution where the research is conducted. From time to time, special awards may be made after recommendation by the SRC, the Scientific Director(s), Board President and/or the Executive Director and subsequent approval of the full Board. During the year ended December 31, 2019, grants and awards totaling $76,500 were made: GrantsinAid: ($11,250) Grants were made to researchers within three years of their first academic appointment who have no support other than departmental funds. These awardees are expected to utilize these grants to generate preliminary results in order to obtain significant subsequent funding from other sources. Postdoctoral Awards: ($35,250) Grants were awarded to individuals with doctoral degrees who intend to pursue academic careers in ophthalmology and/or eye and vision research. These awardees are expected to utilize their funding for their post-doctoral research projects, and to obtain preliminary data in support of future larger grant applications.Summer Student Fellowships: ($30,000) Grants were made to undergraduates, graduate or medical students contemplating careers in eye research. Students work under the direction of established vision scientists on projects related to eye disease or vision disorders.
