Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B

Utilizing financial records approved by the treasurer, the articulate foundation president works with an independent accountant to complete a draft 990 that is submitted to the full board for review prior to filing.

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

The articulate foundation's (taf) conflicts of interest policy establishes a) procedures for the disclosure of financial interests by each director and principal officer, and b) procedures by which the governing board addresses any such disclosures. Each director and principal officer must annually sign a statement affirming receipt of the policy and the agreement to comply. The policy outlines the duty of disclosure, steps for determining if a conflict of interest exists, procedures for addressing a potential conflict of interest, and guidelines for the written documentation of these activities. The policy also calls for the periodic review of partnerships, joint ventures, and other financial relationships, as well as taf's compensation/benefits arrangements, to ensure conformity to taf's written policies.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15A

The articulate foundation board makes periodic review of compensation arrangements and benefits to determine if they are reasonable, based on competent local and field-wide survey information, and the result of arms length bargaining.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

Governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements are available upon request.

IRS990ScheduleA/FactsAndCircumstancesTestTxt0SINCE 2017, THE ARTICULATE FOUNDATION'S (TAF) PRIMARY PROGRAM HAS BEEN THE PRODUCTION, DISTRIBUTION, AND PROMOTION OF THE PUBLIC TELEVISION SHOW ARTICULATE WITH JIM COTTER. THE PROGRAM IS DISTRIBUTED NATIONWIDE BY AMERICAN PUBLIC TELEVISION-SINCE 2020 ARTICULATE HAS BEEN NOMINATED FOR SIX NATIONAL DAYTIME EMMY AWARDS, WINNING ONE. IN 2021, ARTICULATE WAS AIRED BY PBS MEMBER STATIONS IN 90% OF US MARKETS, REACHING A TOTAL BROADCAST AUDIENCE OF MORE THAN NINE MILLION. THE PROGRAM ALSO STREAMS FOR FREE ON PBS PROPERTIES AND THE ARTICULATE WEBSITE, WHERE TAF ALSO HOSTS INSTRUCTIONAL RESOURCES FOR HIGH SCHOOL EDUCATORS. TAF IS A YOUNG AND GROWING NONPROFIT THAT HIRED ITS FIRST FULL-TIME EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR IN 2019. WHILE THE GROUNDWORK WAS QUICKLY LAID FOR AN EXPANDED FUNDRAISING PROGRAM, THE EMERGENCE OF COVID-19 IN MARCH 2020 INSTANTLY CHANGED THE FUNDING LANDSCAPE. (IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT, THROUGH MODIFIED TECHNIQUES, THE PRODUCTION AND RELEASE OF NEW ARTICULATE SEASONS CONTINUED UNINTERRUPTED THROUGH THE PANDEMIC.) TAF HAS NONETHELESS BEEN SUCCESSFUL IN ADDING NEW PUBLIC FUNDING SOURCES, GOING FROM 11% PUBLIC SUPPORT IN 2019 TO 26% IN 2021.SINCE 2020, THE ORGANIZATION HAS SECURED GRANTS FROM THREE PRIVATE INSTITUTIONAL FUNDERS: PNC CHARITABLE TRUSTS, ROSALIND P. WALTER FOUNDATION, AND WYNCOTE FOUNDATION. THE ORGANIZATION ALSO HAS RECEIVED ANNUAL SUPPORT FROM THE PENNSYLVANIA COUNCIL ON THE ARTS. ADDITIONALLY, THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE EARNED INCOME THAT TAF HAS REPORTED IN 2020 AND 2021 IS TELEVISION PRODUCTION SUPPORT FROM ARTICULATE PRESENTING STATION LEHIGH VALLEY PUBLIC TELECOMMUNICATIONS, A 501(C)3 NONPROFIT PBS/NPR AFFILIATE.THE PANDEMIC PRECLUDED IN-PERSON FUNDRAISING EVENTS FOR MUCH OF 2020 AND ALL OF 2021 AND PREVENTED THE COMMENCEMENT OF PLANNED FUNDRAISING PROGRAMS DESIGNED TO CULTIVATE NEW INDIVIDUAL DONORS. IN 2020-201 TAF HAD TO RELY ON DIGITAL METHODS: WEBSITE, SOCIAL, EMAIL NEWSLETTER. STARTING WITH A BASE OF 3-5 SMALL (< $1,000) DONORS IN 2019, 13 DONORS GAVE IN 2020 AND 21 IN 2021. THE DEFERRED FUNDRAISING PROGRAMS WERE ENACTED IN 2022 AND AN EXPERT IN FUNDRAISING WAS HIRED AT THE END OF 2022 AND COMMENCED WORKING IN JANUARY 2023 TO EXPAND THE FUNDRAISING OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE FOUNDATION.TAF BOARD MEMBERS HAVE EXPERTISE IN KEY NONPROFIT PROGRAM AND OPERATIONAL AREAS: MEMBERS INCLUDE A CPA, A RETIRED MARKETING EXECUTIVE, AND A MEMBER OF A MAJOR PHILADLEPHIA BASED ORCHESTRA . ARTICULATE IS AN ARTS PROGRAM AND ALL BOARD MEMBERS HAVE SOME LEVEL OF SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTISE, INCLUDING A KEY ASSOCIATE, WHO HAS OVER SIXTEEN YEARS' EXPERIENCE AS A VISUAL AND PERFORMING ARTS PRODUCER.
