Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11

“A draft version of the form 990 is presented to the audit and executive committees as representatives of the board of directors for review and approval prior to finalizing for filing. The full board is provided with the final draft of the form 990 prior to filing.”

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

“Our conflict of interest policy, including the conflict of interest disclosure form, is completed annually by all board members and senior staff. The completed disclosure forms are reviewed by the president and ceo and, if any conflicts have been identified, they are brought to the attention of the cfo and the executive committee of the board. Subsequently, conflicts are disclosed to any committees that may be affected by the stated conflict. In addition, conflict of interest forms are also completed by committee members who are community volunteers and not current members of the ecf board. Any individuals with conflicts involving board or committee votes and/or decisions are recused from those votes/decisions.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15A

“The executive committee serves as the personnel committee of the foundation. The committee evaluates performance of the president & ceo annually, surveying all board members for their written input and presenting the board comments as part of the performance review. The president & ceo's compensation for the coming year is determined in a closed session of the executive committee with reference to the annual council on foundations' grantmakers salary and benefits report. The report presents compensation data for officers and key staff positions in community foundations across the united states, categorized by position, region and asset size. When available, other reference sources such as the guidestar nonprofit compensation report are included in the compensation review. The executive committee's compensation discussions and decisions are documented contemporaneously and retained in foundation files. As part of the budget process, the executive committee of the board approves the total dollar amount available for staff compensation, including officers. Determination of officer and staff compensation is delegated by the ecf board to the president & ceo, who also references the council on foundations' annual grantmakers salary and benefits report, guidestar and other compensation survey data as part of the process. Annual adjustments to compensation are retained in foundation records.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“Governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements are available upon request.”

Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

FORM 990, PART XI, LINE 9:

“Net investment income allocated to funds held as agency endowments -122,989.”

Financial Statement Notes

PART IV, LINE 2B:

“Funds held as agency endowments represent assets of other non-profit organizations that have been conveyed to the foundation to establish funds for the benefit of those organizations. The assets become a part of the foundation's investment portfolio and receive an allocation of investment returns, as well as investment and accounting expenses. These funds are also assessed an administrative fee. The foundation may receive contributions to these funds from the general public, and the organizations receive periodic distributions from the funds.”

PART V, LINE 4:

“Evanston community foundation builds endowments that support its grantmaking and program initiatives, leadership development and related activities for the benefit of the people of evanston, illinois and surrounding communities, now and in the future. Permanent endowments have been designated by donors to grow in perpetuity while generating annual spending allowances to support the operations, grantmaking, and programs of the foundation and designated organizations. Board-designated endowment funds have been earmarked by the board to grow in perpetuity while generating annual spending allowances to support foundation operations, grantmaking and programs.”

PART X, LINE 2:

“The foundation is an organization exempt from federal income taxes under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code and similar provisions of the state tax law. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements. The foundation recognizes the financial statement impact of a tax position when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination. The foundation has no on-going federal or state income tax audits. However, its tax returns for 2011 and subsequent years remain open to examination.”

PART XI, LINE 2D - OTHER ADJUSTMENTS:

“Net investment income allocated to funds held as agency endowments -122,989.”
