Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Pt VI, Line 11B

On an annual basis and in time to comply with the irs filing deadline, ulu foundation treasurer provides the necessary financial and narrative information to ulu foundation audit committee and an independent accounting firm which then prepares a draft form 990, complete with relevant financial information and supporting schedules. Once an acceptable draft form 990 has been prepared, the audit committee submits the draft 990 form via email to the full board of trustees, inviting their review and comments. Recommended changes will be incorporated before the final signed copy of the form 990 is emailed to the full ulu foundation board of trustees, and also before filing with the irs.

Pt VI, Line 12C

Annually, ulu foundation requires each trustee, officer, employee earning more than $125,000 per year including benefits to (1) review ulu foundation's conflict-of-interest policy; (2) disclose any possible direct or indirect financial or other interest in or relationship with a business or not-for-profit entity that they are aware has, or will have, a business or financial or other relationship with ulu foundation, or any other possible conflict of interest or the appearance of a conflict of interest; and (3) acknowledge by his or her signature that he or she is acting in accordance with the letter and spirit of such policy. Rather than completing a new form each year, trustees, officers, employees may also indicate in writing, including via email, that no changes need to be made to their previously completed forms.

Pt VI, Line 15A

The ulu foundation board carries out a market-based salary comparability analysis for the position of executive director and key employees. Considering the results of the salary analysis, the board of trustees determines and approves executive director or key employee salary and compensation.

Pt VI, Line 18

Ulu foundation makes its irs form 1023 and 990s available to the general public by email upon request.

Pt VI, Line 19

Ulu foundation's governing documents, financial statements, conflict of interest policy, and other similar documents and policies are made available by email upon request.

IRS990ScheduleF/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0ALL GRANTS AND CONTRACTS ARE RELATED DIRECTLY TO ULU FOUNDATION'S CHARITABLE MISSION/PURPOSE. ULU FOUNDATION HAS A NUMBER OF WAYS TO DETERMINE WHETHER INDIVIDUALS OR ORGANIZATIONS RECEIVING SUBGRANTS QUALIFY TO RECEIVE PAYMENTS WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF FURTHERING ULU FOUNDATION'S CHARITABLE PURPOSE. MOST OF ULU FOUNDATION'S SUBGRANTS ARE TO OTHER NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS WITH WHICH ULU FOUNDATION HAS HAD PREVIOUS COLLABORATION AND EXTENSIVE INTERACTION, AND PERFORM TASKS THAT ARE CONSISTENT WITH AND FURTHER ACHIEVING ULU FOUNDATION'S CHARITABLE PURPOSE. MANY ARE SPECIFICALLY IDENTIFIED IN/BY THE SPECIFIC CONTRACTS OR GRANTS WHICH PROVIDE ULU FOUNDATION WITH THE FUNDS FOR THOSE SUBGRANTEES. ULU FOUNDATION SUBGRANTEES UNDERGO NOT ONLY APPROPRIATE REVIEW BY ULU FOUNDATION BUT ALSO BY ULU FOUNDATION'S FUNDERS. ON THE FEW OCCASIONS WHERE ULU FOUNDATION IS UNFAMILAR WITH POTENTIAL SUBGRANTEES, ULU FOUNDATION SOLICITS INFORMATION FROM BOTH THE SUBGRANTEE AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS THAT MIGHT HAVE EXPERTISE IN WORKING WITH THE POTENTIAL SUBGRANTEE. ULU FOUNDATION CHECKS BOTH THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY, OFFICE OF FOREIGN ASSETS CONTROL, SPECIALLY DESIGNATED NATIONALS AND BLOCKED PERSONS AND U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE FOREIGN TERRORIST ORGANIZATION LISTS BEFORE ANY FUNDS ARE TRANSFERRED OR PAID TO AN INDIVIDUAL OR ORGANIZATION WITHIN OR OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES. ULU FOUNDATION DOES NOT PROVIDE FUNDS TO ANY INDIVIDUALS OR ORGANIZATIONS ON EITHER OF THESE TWO LISTS AND ULU FOUNDATION WILL CONTINUE TO FOLLOW THAT POLICY. FOR TRAVEL-RELATED SUBGRANTS, RECIPIENTS MUST PROVIDE ULU FOUNDATION WITH COPIES OF INVOICES/RECEIPTS SUCH AS FOR AIRFARES, TRAIN FARES, HOTELS, ETC. OTHER ULU FOUNDATION SUBGRANTEES MUST SUBMIT SPECIFIED DELIVERABLES AND/OR REPORTS TO DOCUMENT PROPER USE OF FUNDS FORWARDED BY ULU FOUNDATION. PAYMENTS FOR LARGER SUBGRANTS SPECIFYING DELIVERABLES ARE GENERALLY MADE IN TWO OR MORE PAYMENTS, WITH THE FINAL PAYMENT BEING MADE UPON SATISFYING COMPLETION OF THE RELATED DELIVERABLES. PAYMENTS FOR SMALLER SUBGRANTS OR CONTRACTS ARE GENERALLY MADE UPON COMPLETION OF THE RELATED DELIVERABLES.

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0ON AN ANNUAL BASIS AND IN TIME TO COMPLY WITH THE IRS FILING DEADLINE, ULU FOUNDATION TREASURER PROVIDES THE NECESSARY FINANCIAL AND NARRATIVE INFORMATION TO ULU FOUNDATION AUDIT COMMITTEE AND AN INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTING FIRM WHICH THEN PREPARES A DRAFT FORM 990, COMPLETE WITH RELEVANT FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND SUPPORTING SCHEDULES. ONCE AN ACCEPTABLE DRAFT FORM 990 HAS BEEN PREPARED, THE AUDIT COMMITTEE SUBMITS THE DRAFT 990 FORM VIA EMAIL TO THE FULL BOARD OF TRUSTEES, INVITING THEIR REVIEW AND COMMENTS. RECOMMENDED CHANGES WILL BE INCORPORATED BEFORE THE FINAL SIGNED COPY OF THE FORM 990 IS EMAILED TO THE FULL ULU FOUNDATION BOARD OF TRUSTEES, AND ALSO BEFORE FILING WITH THE IRS.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1ANNUALLY, ULU FOUNDATION REQUIRES EACH TRUSTEE, OFFICER, EMPLOYEE EARNING MORE THAN $125,000 PER YEAR INCLUDING BENEFITS TO (1) REVIEW ULU FOUNDATION'S CONFLICT-OF-INTEREST POLICY; (2) DISCLOSE ANY POSSIBLE DIRECT OR INDIRECT FINANCIAL OR OTHER INTEREST IN OR RELATIONSHIP WITH A BUSINESS OR NOT-FOR-PROFIT ENTITY THAT THEY ARE AWARE HAS, OR WILL HAVE, A BUSINESS OR FINANCIAL OR OTHER RELATIONSHIP WITH ULU FOUNDATION, OR ANY OTHER POSSIBLE CONFLICT OF INTEREST OR THE APPEARANCE OF A CONFLICT OF INTEREST; AND (3) ACKNOWLEDGE BY HIS OR HER SIGNATURE THAT HE OR SHE IS ACTING IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LETTER AND SPIRIT OF SUCH POLICY. RATHER THAN COMPLETING A NEW FORM EACH YEAR, TRUSTEES, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES MAY ALSO INDICATE IN WRITING, INCLUDING VIA EMAIL, THAT NO CHANGES NEED TO BE MADE TO THEIR PREVIOUSLY COMPLETED FORMS.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2THE ULU FOUNDATION BOARD CARRIES OUT A MARKET-BASED SALARY COMPARABILITY ANALYSIS FOR THE POSITION OF EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR AND KEY EMPLOYEES. CONSIDERING THE RESULTS OF THE SALARY ANALYSIS, THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES DETERMINES AND APPROVES EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OR KEY EMPLOYEE SALARY AND COMPENSATION.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt3ULU FOUNDATION MAKES ITS IRS FORM 1023 AND 990S AVAILABLE TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC BY EMAIL UPON REQUEST.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt4ULU FOUNDATION'S GOVERNING DOCUMENTS, FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY, AND OTHER SIMILAR DOCUMENTS AND POLICIES ARE MADE AVAILABLE BY EMAIL UPON REQUEST.
