Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 2

“Wendy thomas morse and lori thomas seitz are sisters.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B

“The form 990 was reviewed internally by the financial management team and president. Upon their review a final draft of form 990 was sent via email to the board for their review prior to filing with the irs. They were asked to submit any questions/concerns to foundation management within 3 business days.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C

“Each board member, staff and key volunteers shall annually complete a disclosure form identifying any relationships, positions or circumstances in which they believe could contribute to a conflict of interest arising. Any potential conflict of interest shall be treated as confidential and shall generally be made available only to the board chair, the president & ceo, and any committee appointed to address the situation.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“The executive committee of the board of trustees is responsible for establishing compensation for the foundation's ceo; the full board is responsible for approval. On an annual basis, the executive committee establishes the compensation of the president & ceo based upon prior year performance and data comparing similar organizations, region of the country and budget capacity. The executive committee and full board of trustees reviews and approves the annual budget that includes budgeted increases for the remainder of the staff. The president & ceo then determines, within the parameters set by the board, what the individual salaries of the staff will be, including increased compensation based on cost of living, merit, and/or position amendments.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“The foundation is exempt from federal income taxes under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code.

PART XI, LINE 2D - OTHER ADJUSTMENTS:

“Special events direct expenses - deducted against income 87,277.”

PART XII, LINE 2D - OTHER ADJUSTMENTS:

“Special events direct expenses - deducted against income 87,277.”

Part V, Line 4

“The foundation's quasi-endowment was established in 2017 and consists of various investment funds established primarily for support of the organization's mission. Its endowment represents board-designated endowment funds. As required by accounting principles generally accepted in the united states of america, net assets associated with endowment funds, including funds designated by the board to function as endowments, are classified and reported based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions. The foundation manages its endowment funds in accordance with uniform prudent management of institutional funds act (upmifa). Upmifa permits a nonprofit organization to appropriate investment income and appreciation on endowment funds for operations in absence of donor restrictions. In addition, the foundation's policy is intended to outline a philosophy and attitude which will guide the investment management of the assets toward the desired results. It is intended to be sufficiently specific to be meaningful, yet flexible enough to be practical.”

IRS990/Desc0WENDY'S WONDERFUL KIDS:WENDY'S WONDERFUL KIDS, A SIGNATURE PROGRAM OF THE FOUNDATION, IS MAKING A DIFFERENCE FOR THOUSANDS OF CHILDREN ACROSS THE NATION - ONE CHILD AT A TIME. THE DAVE THOMAS FOUNDATION FOR ADOPTION AWARDS GRANTS TO PUBLIC AND PRIVATE AGENCIES TO HIRE ADOPTION PROFESSIONALS WHO IMPLEMENT A PROACTIVE, CHILD-FOCUSED RECRUITMENT STRATEGY TARGETED EXCLUSIVELY ON MOVING AMERICA'S LONGEST-WAITING CHILDREN FROM FOSTER CARE INTO ADOPTIVE FAMILIES. RESEARCH RELEASED IN 2011 FROM A FIVE-YEAR RIGOROUS EVALUATION OF WENDY'S WONDERFUL KIDS CHILD-FOCUSED RECRUITMENT MODEL SHOWED THAT CHILDREN SERVED BY THE PROGRAM ARE UP TO THREE TIMES MORE LIKELY TO GET ADOPTED. WENDY'S WONDERFUL KIDS RECRUITERS WORK WITH CHILDREN AND YOUTH AT GREATEST RISK OF TURNING 18 AND LEAVING FOSTER CARE WITHOUT AN ADOPTIVE FAMILY. THE RECRUITERS HAVE SMALLER CASELOADS, TO ENSURE THEY HAVE THE TIME AND RESOURCES TO GIVE EACH CHILD THE ATTENTION HE OR SHE DESERVES AND EMPLOY AN AGGRESSIVE EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE MODEL FOCUSED ON FINDING THE BEST HOME FOR A CHILD.THE DAVE THOMAS FOUNDATION FOR ADOPTION IS FUNDING 248 WENDY'S WONDERFUL KIDS RECRUITERS WORKING FOR CHILDREN IN THE U.S. MORE THAN 6,300 CHILDREN HAVE BEEN ADOPTED AS A RESULT OF WENDY'S WONDERFUL KIDS, AND ANOTHER 700 ARE IN THEIR PRE-ADOPTIVE PLACEMENTS SIMPLY WAITING FOR A FINAL COURT HEARING.
