“The form 990 is prepared by an outside consulting firm. Prior to filing the form 990 with the irs, the board of directors will be presented a copy of the draft 990 to review. The draft will be sent to the board members via email.”

“The board of directors is covered by the conflict-of-interest policy. Determinations of whether an actual conflict exists are made at the board level. If it is determined that a conflict exists, the chairperson of the governing board shall appoint a disinterested person or committee to investigate alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement. After exercising due diligence, the governing board shall determine whether the organization can obtain with reasonable efforts a more advantageous transaction or arrangement from a person or entity that would not give rise to a conflict. If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably possible under circumstances not producing a conflict of interest, the governing board shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested directors whether the transaction or arrangement is in the organization's best interest, for its own benefit, and whether it is fair and reasonable. In conformity with the above determination, it shall make its decision as to whether to enter into the transaction or arrangement. The interested person is allowed to make a presentation to the board but is not allowed to participate in discussion or voting on the transaction or arrangement.”

“The organization does not compensate any top management officials or officers of the organization.”

“The documents are on file and available to the public for review upon request.”
