Governance Explanations

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

“The 990 is emailed to all Board Members after review and approval by the Finance Committee.”

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

“The Bylaws require annual disclosure of conficts of interest, which are reviewed at the annual meeting.”

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

“Currently, the Compensation Committee has only determined the salary of the Executive Director. The Compensation Committee had a series of discussions in September of 2013 to set the Executive Director's current salary. As in 2010, the Committee chose to set the salary by benchmarking comparable Executive Director salaries of nonprofits. The Committee used the compensation information provided on the GuideStar website as in 2010. In 2013, however, the Committee shifted away from benchmarking nonprofits in the Remedial Reading and Encouragement and instead switched to an All Industries comparison. This was done because Literacy Bridge's focus has always been much broader than reading and encouragement and there are no easy ways to identify and compare nonprofits that leverage technology to solve multiple problems across education, health, and information sharing. Finally, using the chart for Washington State, the Committee recommended to the Board to set the Executive Director's salary based on projected 2013 revenue of $100,000 - $200,000 at the 60th percentile. There was no incresae in salary for the Executive Director in 2014.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 19: Other Organization Documents Publicly Available

“Governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements are available upon request.”

IRS990/Desc0Literacy Bridge saves lives and improves the livelihoods of impoverished families through comprehensive programs that provide on-demand access to locally relevant knowledge. At the heart of the program is the Talking Book - an innovative low-cost audio computer designed for the learning needs of illiterate populations living in the poorest areas in the world. In 2014 we developed content campaigns with UNICEF for behavior objectives and conducted community level research to ensure the selection of 49 communities matched our community criteria. We launched programs in all 49 communities with critical agriculture and health content. In 2014 we also hired a full time marketing manager and a full time program manager at our US headquarters, and deployed a short-term U.S. Field Advisor to live and work in Jirapa, Ghana. We also hired community agents to serve as individual community liaisons for each community and trained them on how to execute our household rotation distribution model. We held public meetings in each community to explain the Talking Book program and increase awareness and interest in our program. Farmers Day is a national holiday in Ghana that celebrates the accomplishments of the country's best farmers and fishers. Talking Book users won six out of eight Farmer's Day awards. One of our biggest highlights in 2014 was announcing our partnership with UNICEF and ARM. We received media coverage from BBC News, Geekwire, Business Weekly, and others.
