Curious Learning a Global Literacy Project Inc.

“The federal form 990 is prepared by our public accounting firm and then first reviewed by the chair and executive director. Upon agreement with the reporting, the draft version of the federal form 990 is then presented to the full board of directors for their review and comment prior to filing with the internal revenue service.”

“The board of directors annually reviews the conflict of interest policy and discloses any potential conflict of interest. All staff and the board of directors sign a conflict of interest disclosure statement annually. The coi policy is always taken into consideration when there is the potential for conflict, particularly when signing new contracts or beginning new relationships. Any possible appearance of conflict of interest that arises in the course of business is researched to determine the existence of a conflict. If a contract is to be made with a related party, it is disclosed to the board of directors and a vote is taken. Board members are precluded from voting on matters for which a conflict exists.”

“Curious learning has a compensation committee that is comprised of members of the board of directors. The committee uses comparable data, such as the federal form 990 of other commensurate non-profit organizations, and a compensation survey to determine the compensation for the executive director. This decision is documented in the minutes at the time of the decision.”

“Curious learning makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, financial statements, as well as their federal forms 990 and 1023 available to the public upon request.”
