Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI

Line 18 - form 990 available upon written request during regular office hours.

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 11B

The 990 is prepared by an outside cpa firm. The draft is sent to the board for review. Once all questions have been answered and changes made (if needed), the 990 is e-filed and a copy of the final 990 sent to the board.

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 12C

Board members are required to annually disclose any potential conflicts of interest to the board. If a conflict of interest is determined to exist, the affected board member must recuse themselves from decisions on any transactions related to the conflict. The remaining board members will determine whether the proposed transaction is in the organization's best interest and if any more favorable options are available. At all times the board will ensure that the organization's best interests are protected.

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 19

Select governing documents and conflict of interest policy are available by written request. No other documents are available to the public.
