“The board of directors receives the conflict of interest policy and annual conflict of interest disclosure statement prior to the annual (usually january) board meeting. The secretary reviews this policy with the board at that meeting. Board members are invited to ask questions at the meeting and/or discuss potential conflicts with the secretary and/or executive director following the meeting. All directors must complete and sign the disclosure statement and send it to the executive director within a month of the meeting.”

“The hr committee of the board reviews the salary and performance of the executive director each year. The board votes on the salary of the executive director in a closed session as part of the budget approval process each year. At the same time, the board approves the salary allocations for the rest of the staff. For the executive director's salary, the board compares against comparables. The executive director does the same in determining her staff's salaries.”

“Good+ foundation empowers families in marginalized communities with the education and training they need to build a better life. With an early focus on mothers and children, good+ foundation expanded programming in 2010 to strengthen support for non-custodial and formerly incarcerated fathers to address one of the root causes of cyclical poverty: father absence. Today, the organization partners with a national network of social service programs to pair goods-such as cribs, car seats, and diapers-with life skills training, employment assistance, financial literacy and co-parenting classes. By giving fathers tools, dignity and opportunities to re-engage with their families, good+ foundation is improving outcomes for children. We have offices and warehouses in ny and la and strategically distributes over $6 million worth of goods each year across the country. In 2018, 91 cent of every dollar donated went directly back into good+ foundation programs. For the sixth consecutive year, we have received a 4-star rating on charity navigator - the highest rating possible - as well as accreditation by the better business bureau's wise giving alliance for transparency, efficiency and operations.”

“The process has not changed since the prior year.”
