This committee is made up of at least five but not more than six persons, all of whom shall be members of the Board of Directors. The President shall be an advisory, non-voting member of the Executive Committee.”

“Officers Jon Riewer and Darin Ohe are employed by Eventide, a related exempt organization. The board members of Eventide Living Center are also the board members of Eventide. Therefore, business relationships exist between Jon Riewer and each member of the board of directors and Darin Ohe and each member of the board of directors.”

“The organization paid management fees to Eventide, a related organization, for the services of the President/CEO and CFO. For calendar year ending December 31, 2023, Jon Riewer, President/CEO received $512,816 in compensation, $13,968 in pension, and $17,418 in other employee benefits.

“Delegates from the member churches serve on the board and elect the Board of Directors. Each member church has one vote for every 1,000 members of the church. Each member church also has one additional vote which may be cast by one of its pastors present at the meeting. Each member of the organization's Board of Directors is entitled to one vote.”

“The CFO and Vice President of Finance and Budget will review a draft of the Form 990. The Form 990 will be provided to the governing board prior to filing with the IRS.”

“Board members, management level employees and up are covered by the policy. The senior management/CFO determines if a conflict of interest exists and reviews conflicts. Eventide has various restrictions in place to keep the individual with the conflict from acting on their own behalf instead of Eventide's best interest. Individuals with a conflict must abstain from voting on the issue.”

“The organization relies on Eventide, a related organization, to determine the compensation. An annual evaluation of the CEO is done by the Executive Committee team of Eventide. A comparability study was done in 2020 by Leading Age-CEMO. The comparability study considers the region, total revenue and FTE's. The last review done was in February 2024. The CEO annually reviews, approves and documents the CFO compensation using the same methods as above.”

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