“The PC Board has no committees.”

“After internal accounting staff drafts the 990, the draft is submitted to PC's independent tax preparers for their review and revision, as may be appropriate. The revised draft is then given to PC's treasurer for further review. Once all staff and professional reviews/revisions are done, the Treasurer sends the proposed final of the form 990 to the PC board for its consideration. Once the board has had an opportunity to review and comment, the finalized version is filed with the IRS.”

“The Conflict of Interest Policy covers any employee, officer, director or other representative, including volunteer, of Project Chimps. Each covered person shall disclose annually to the Board and the CEO all material facts regarding his or her interest in a transaction or a related party's interest in any transaction being considered by Project Chimps in a timely manner. The Board deliberates and votes on the transaction in his or her absence. If the Board determines any covered person has failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest, the Board shall take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action.”

“PC makes its governing documents and financial statements available to the public upon request. The conflict of interest policy has not been made available to the general public.”

“The organization needs more time in order to file an accurate Form 990-T.”

“All direct management and general expenses and fundraising expenses were allocated to those functional areas, respectively. Salaries and benefits were allocated based on estimates of employee time worked on programmatic, management and general, and fundraising activities.”
