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, before it is filed with the IRS.”

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 salary for that year. 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. The Board has used various benchmarking nonprofit salary surveys and in 2015 the Executive Director's salary was increased. In 2016 there were no increases to the Executive Director's salary. Based on the chart for Washington State, the Executive Director's salary is lower than the 60th percentile for non profits of this size and type. In 2017, the Board will conduct a review of the Executive Director's compensation and determine if an increase is necessary.”

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 Bridges Talking Book Program empowers impoverished rural families with locally relevant, on-demand agriculture and health information to improve their standard of living and quality of life. At the heart of our program is the Talking Book, an innovative, low cost audio computer designed for the learning needs of illiterate populations. The Talking Book is the worlds most affordable audio computer designed specifically for people who cannot read and who live without electricity. Local experts easily record their knowledge in an oral form so that it can act like an audio library for people who cannot read. Anyone can then access the information repeatedly, whenever they need to apply it; they can also record their own messages to expand on existing ideas, share new information, or relay feedback to an organization.
