Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 8B

“The Organization's governing body has no committees.”

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

“The draft 990 is sent to all board members prior to the return being finalized.”

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

“To monitor and enforce compliance with the conflict of interest policy, the organization requires all officers, directors and individuals with substantial influence over the organization to complete an annual statement disclosing to the board any business, contractual or financial relationships the person has with other corporations. In addition, said persons have an ongoing obligation to disclose to the board any financial interest, direct or indirect, that the person would gain from any particular transaction, contract or policy under consideration by the organization. The board must address potential conflicts on a case-by-case basis, conflicted persons must abstain from the deliberation of the transaction, and corporate records must be maintained.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“The Compensation Committee will establish acceptable compensation packages after reviewing at least one of the following: 1) Information about compensation paid by similarly situated tax-exempt organizations for similar services; 2) current compensation surveys compiled by independent firms; or 3) actual written offers from similarly situated organizations. Documentation of the compensation deliberation and decision is kept on file.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“No documents were made available to the public, except for those that were included with the organization's Form 1024 application for exempt status, which are made available upon request as indicated in Line 18.”

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1The draft 990 is sent to all board members prior to the return being finalized.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2To monitor and enforce compliance with the conflict of interest policy, the organization requires all officers, directors and individuals with substantial influence over the organization to complete an annual statement disclosing to the board any business, contractual or financial relationships the person has with other corporations. In addition, said persons have an ongoing obligation to disclose to the board any financial interest, direct or indirect, that the person would gain from any particular transaction, contract or policy under consideration by the organization. The board must address potential conflicts on a case-by-case basis, conflicted persons must abstain from the deliberation of the transaction, and corporate records must be maintained.
