Governance Explanations

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

“The board reviews the return before filing”

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

“The foundation's officers, board of trustees and executive director must annually fill out a conflict of interest disclosure form. This form discloses any interests that do or could give rise to a conflict of interest. The board and executive director jointly monitor the disclosure for each conflict disclosed, the board assures that full disclosure has been made, determines whether the conflicted member should abstain from voting or participating in certain issues, and determines whether the conflicted member should be removed from the board.”

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

“The process of determining the executive director's compensation is by the following elements: (1) review and approval by the board, (2)use of such data as the board determines as to comparable compensation, and (3) documentation and records kept contemporaneously with the process of arriving at the executive director's compensation from time to time. Compensation review is done annually.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements available to the public upon request.”

Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 1:

“During the year ended march 31, 2025 the organization changed its method of accounting from the cash basis to the accrual basis of accounting to better reflect its financial position and activities. As a result of this change, revenue and expenses are recognized when earned or incurred rather than when cash is received or paid. Prior year amounts have not been restated and therefore are not comparable to the current year.”

Financial Statement Notes

PART V, LINE 4:

“The permanently restricted net assets are restricted to investments in perpetuity. Earnings from one fund will be used for the purchase of children's books. Earnings from another fund support unrestricted programs. Earnings from another fund are to be used to support the library as the board sees fit. The permanently restricted assets total $80,733. The temporarily restricted net assets are to be spent on non fiction books, childrens' books, or services of a cultural or artistic nature to benefit the local area.”
