Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11

“The chief financial officer, the chief operating officer and ceo review the form 990 for the organization. The form 990 is then passed for review to the board of directors. Before the form 990 is filed, a majority of the board of directors assent in writing to its release”

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

“A conflict of interest policy was adopted by the board of directors at its meeting on october 7, 2013. The conflict of interest policy is distributed annually and signed by the officers, board members and all employees. In the annual notification the organization's employees are asked that any conflicts be disclosed immediately to the compliance officer and are reminded to adhere to the policy. For ongoing monitoring purposes, all staff are asked to be cognizant of such activity and to be given the opportunity to report a conflict anonymously to the compliance officer, should a particular event arise.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“During 2014 the independent members of the organization's board of directors reviewed the ny salary data set in the guidestar annual non profit compensation report to evaluate compensation levels for all officers and key employees of the organization. In addition, the independent members of the board of directors reviewed salary offers made to certain key employees and officers in determining the appropriate level of compensation for those employees and officers. Following a review of the aforementioned data and inputs, compensation for selected key employees and officers of the organization was discussed and set in an executive session meeting of the independent members of the board of directors.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“The organization makes its conflict of interest and whistleblower policies available on its web site, along with its financials statements. Governing documents are available upon request.”

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The organization is exempt from federal income taxes under section 501 (c)(3) of the internal revenue code and applicable state law. The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under that guidance, the organization may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position, including its tax-exempt status, only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for the period february 12, 2013 (inception) to december 31, 2013 and for the year ended december 31, 2014.”
