Governance Explanations

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

“The cpa emails the president of ideas the completed irs form 990 for review. Subsequently, the president emails the members of the ideas board of directors a copy of the completed irs form 990 for their review and comment prior to the formal submittal of the tax return to the irs.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 15A

“As a newly formed non-profit organization with limited financial resources, the annual salary for the ceo for ideas was developed based on the availability of incoming funds and the need to compensate the individual with a reasonable salary. The amount of compensation was determined and approved by the ideas board of directors to be 3,000 per month or 36,000 per year.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 19

“The ideas for us website, www.ideasforus.org, includes the ability to tap the guidestar logo that hyperlinks to the guidestar portal. From there, one can download the guidestar nonprofit report (four pages) for ideas that has links to the various financial documents. In addition, there are hyperlinks to request specific information from ideas such as annual reports and formation/governing documents.”
