“The organization does not have any committees with authority to act on behalf of the governing body.”

“The prepared form 990 is reviewed by the organization's treasurer before the return is filed with the irs.”

“In connection with any actual or possible conflict of interest, an interested person must disclose the existence of the financial interest and be given the opportunity to disclose all material facts to the governing body considering the proposed transaction or arrangement. After disclosure of the financial interest and all material facts, and after any discussion with the interested person, he/she shall leave the meeting while the determination of a conflict of interest is discussed and voted upon. The remaining members shall decide if a conflict of interest exists. An interested person may make a presentation at the meeting, but after the presentation, he/she shall leave the meeting during the discussion of, and the vote on, the transaction or arrangement involving the possible conflict of interest. The chairperson shall, if appropriate, appoint a disinterested person or committee to investigate alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement. After exercising due diligence, the governing body or committee shall determine whether the organization can obtain with reasonable efforts a more advantageous transaction or arrangement from a person or entity that would not give rise to a conflict of interest. If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably possible under circumstances not producing a conflict of interest, the governing body or committee shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested director whether the transaction or arrangement is in the organization's best interest, for its own benefit, and whether it is fair and reasonable. In conformity with the above determination it shall make its decision as to whether to enter into the transaction or arrangement. If the governing body or committee has reasonable cause to believe a member has failed to disclose actual or possible conflicts of interest, it shall inform the member of the basis for such a belief and afford the member an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. If, after hearing the member's response and after making further investigation as warranted by the circumstances, the governing body or committee determines the member failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest, it shall take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action.”

“The members of the governing body determined the executive director's compensation based on the available budget and specific purpose donations at that time. The governing body approved the compensation and the decision was documented in the minutes of the meetings of the governing body. The process was last undertaken in 2023.”

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