Governance Explanations

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

The ceo of the organization distributes a pdf copy of the 990 to all board members for review and comment prior to the return being filed.

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

At each board and committee meeting, if there is a discussion of selecting or engaging a vendor or service provider, all in attendance are asked to recuse themselves from this discussion if there could be a perceived conflict. Annually, the organization reviews and discusses the conflict of interest policy and requests that each board member list and acknowledge any known conflicts.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

The board reviews the compensation for the officer by comparing their compensation to the compensation of individuals in like positions in comparable organizations using forms 990, compensation studies, and other available data. The board then approves any changes in compensation based on this information. An individual who is a member of the board who receives compensation, directly or indirectly from the organization for services, is precluded from participating in discussions or votes pertaining to their own compensation.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

The organization will provide, in a timely manner, governing documents including its conflict of interest policy, when requested in writing or in person.

ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0Please accept this statement as reasonable cause for the late filing of our returns. There was no intention to the late and we are working to get back into a timely filing history including filing our 2024 return timely and working on our 2025 financials to ensure filing for the 2025 return will also be timely. We got behind during Covid and basically never caught back up. The volume of need grew exponentially while the number of organizations assisting veterans and their families shrank. Our focus has always been on serving our constituents and we allowed our internal work financial reporting for the organization to be moved to the side to make sure we had the bandwidth to help as many people as possible. This unfortunately snowballed and the further behind we got, the bigger the time commitment needed to catch back up. We have caught up now and feel confident we have a plan in place to ensure we do not get behind again. The financial burden of these penalties would be very impactful to the work we do and would decrease the number of people we can assist at a time when the need continues to rise and the resources for them are decreasing. Based on these factors, we ask for acceptance of our reasonable cause and for you to abate penalties associated with our late filing.
