One Simple Wish Inc

“In March 2014, One Simple Wish amended their bylaws. The amendment included the following significant changes: The mission of the organization was changed to reach a broader cross section of the public with the organization's service. The mission statement now includes foster children, at-risk youth, and vulnerable families. Board members' responsiblities now include generating donations through fundraising efforts or in kind services for a total contribution of $5,000 annually. Board members' term was increased from one year to two years. Elected officer's terms are now limited to two consecutive terms in a postion. Confidential ballot voting is no longer required for electing Board of Director Officer positions. Although, they may be used if desired. The bylaws now reference the One Simple Wish Conflict of Interest Policy. The amended bylaws correct an error in the year end of the Organization. The Organization's year end is June 30th.”

“There are no committees with the authority to act on behalf of the governing board. Therefore there is no documentation of any such meetings.”

“One Simple Wish handles most communication via email. The Form 990 is uploaded to a secure Dropbox file with a password and distributed to Board members. They have 3 business days to review it and provide feedback, in writing. If no feedback, they are asked to respond to the email that they have read and reviewed the Form 990.”

“The Organization regularly and consistently monitors and enforces compliance with the conflict of interest policy by requiring each director, principal officer and member of a committee with governing board delegated powers to annually sign a statement. This statement affirms such person: has received a copy of the conflict of interest policy, has read and understands the policy, has agreed to comply with the policy, and understands the Organization is charitable and in order to maintain its federal tax exemption it must engage primarily in activities which accomplish one or more of its tax-exempted purposes.”

“The executive director's salary was based on a review and approval by the board of directors and included an assessment of other similar organizations in the Mercer County area as well as an expectation of growth. The decision was documented in the organization's minutes. No other officers receive compensation therfore there is no process for determining other officers' compensation.”

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

“There was no change in the process of overseeing or selecting the outside accounting firm.”
