Governance Explanations

Officer directors etc family relationship Part VI line 2

The Executive Director is related to five directors, Doris Porter, Logan Porter IV, Eloise Porter, Anna Kaijser-Bots and Jerone Kaijser-Bots. They are each minority owners in an LLC which owns the warehouse and rents it to the Foundation at below market rates.In addition, Logan Porter IV owns both Executive Management Consulting Services LLC (which provides management services to the Foundation) and Banner Trucking LLC (a new company providing hauling services and which purchases agricultural products from the Foundation). Logan Porter III owns FLP3 Corp. which provides hauling services to the foundation, shifting liabilty away from the foundation.

Management duties delegation Part VI line 3

The Foundation contracts for management services with Executive Management Consulting Services LLC to keep costs down.

Form 990 governing body review Part VI line 11

Two trustees are independent. They apply the written Conflict of Interest policy regarding all transactions with any member of the Porter family (the family which donated the Foundations initial assets). This independent trustee committee is empowered to make all board decisions on family-related contracts. No new contracts were initiated during this year.

Conflict of interest policy compliance Part VI line 12C

All Trustees who have any personal financial interest, either direct or indirect, are required to recuse themselves from voting, which they have throughout this past year. The independent Trustees determine all conflict of interest policy compliance, and serve as a defacto conflict of interest committee.

CEO executive director top management comp Part VI line 15A

The Executive Directors compensation was determined by talking with other area non-profits. However, the Executive Director has stated he does not want to be compensated at the prevailing rate, so the Board of Directors reduced his pay to the requested amount, which is far below comparable non-profits.

Other officer or key employee compensation Part VI line 15B

As noted in an earlier Schedule O entry, one of the Trustees, Logan Porter IV, works for the management firm the Foundation contracts with to manage daily operations.

Governing documents etc available to public Part VI line 19

Like most non-profits, the Foundations 990 form is available on Guidestar.The 990 form is also available from the Executive Director upon notification.

IRS990/Desc0Agribusiness entrepreneurship training. During this year the Foundation hired a fulltime director of training programs, which has enabled the Foundation to greatly expand its training programs and to help an older age bracket, particularly among minorities. New training successes include work with boy scout troops, Vietnamese refugees, farmer and timber groups throughout North Carolina with plans to expand offerings to neighboring states next year. Also, we are beginning to offer education and coaching to teach potential new agribusiness entrepreneurs how to diversity to several services and product lines which can create more jobs among minority, younger, and disadvantaged people in both rural and urban areas.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Tree preservation efforts. We have emphasized helping mostly Hispanics while working with land owners in several states to preserve long leaf pine trees. Our initial efforts have included both educational efforts with some landowners plus leasing land to prevent development which would harm or destroy pine forests. However, we are supplementing these efforts with discussions about conservation easements to provide more permanent preservation of pristine pine forest land.

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The Executive Director is related to five directors, Doris Porter, Logan Porter IV, Eloise Porter, Anna Kaijser-Bots and Jerone Kaijser-Bots. They are each minority owners in an LLC which owns the warehouse and rents it to the Foundation at below market rates.In addition, Logan Porter IV owns both Executive Management Consulting Services LLC (which provides management services to the Foundation) and Banner Trucking LLC (a new company providing hauling services and which purchases agricultural products from the Foundation). Logan Porter III owns FLP3 Corp. which provides hauling services to the foundation, shifting liabilty away from the foundation.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1The Foundation contracts for management services with Executive Management Consulting Services LLC to keep costs down.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2Two trustees are independent. They apply the written Conflict of Interest policy regarding all transactions with any member of the Porter family (the family which donated the Foundations initial assets). This independent trustee committee is empowered to make all board decisions on family-related contracts. No new contracts were initiated during this year.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt3All Trustees who have any personal financial interest, either direct or indirect, are required to recuse themselves from voting, which they have throughout this past year. The independent Trustees determine all conflict of interest policy compliance, and serve as a defacto conflict of interest committee.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt4The Executive Directors compensation was determined by talking with other area non-profits. However, the Executive Director has stated he does not want to be compensated at the prevailing rate, so the Board of Directors reduced his pay to the requested amount, which is far below comparable non-profits.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt5As noted in an earlier Schedule O entry, one of the Trustees, Logan Porter IV, works for the management firm the Foundation contracts with to manage daily operations.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt6Like most non-profits, the Foundations 990 form is available on Guidestar.The 990 form is also available from the Executive Director upon notification.
