Avow Inc.

“Compensation for the organization's president and other officers is paid by avow hospice, inc., a related tax exempt organization. The executive committee of the board reviews compensation of the president & ceo to ensure compensation is reasonable and then recommends any changes in compensation to the board of directors. The executive committee uses comparability data in their determination. The full board then approves the compensation of the president & ceo. The process is documented in the board and executive committee minutes. This process was last undertaken during 2015. Because the organization's president and other officers are not paid by the filing organization, the form 990 instructions require this to be answered "no".”

“The reinstated bylaws now have adopted an investment committee, governance committee, and Ad Hoc committee, all of which the board shall retain final authority over all matters.”

“The Form 990 is reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer in detail. A copy of the Form 990 is provided to every member of the governing body prior to filing.”

“Annually, the corporate compliance officer provides a conflict of interest questionnaire to each board director and officer , to complete and return. The corporate compliance officer then reviews these questionnaires to determine what conflicts, real or perceived, exist. If a board diretor or officer has a conflict of interest, s/he discloses the conflict. The board director or officer with the conflict is allowed to remain in the meeting to answer any question the conflicted board director or officer may need to answer and then the conflicted board director or officer is excused from the meeting. The remaining board directors or officer can then discuss the matter further and action is taken on the matter. The conflicted board director or oficer is then invited back into the meeting. Conflicted trustees may also be asked, in rare situations, to resign their position on the board.”

“The governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements are available upon request from the organization.”
