Witness to Love Marriage Prep

“Family Relationship: Mary-Rose and Ryan Verret”

“Witness to Love's Form 990 is prepared by a Certified Public Accounting firm. A draft of the return is distributed via email to the finance committee for an initial review and commenting. Upon the finance committee's approval, a draft is provided by email to the board of directors for questions and commenting. The board is provided a specific time period to comment on the form. Prior to filing, any questions or comments are addressed. Upon the expiration of the review period and resolution of all questions, the Form 990 is finalized and filed with the IRS.”

“Witness to Love has conflict of interest policy that requires the officers, directors, and key employees to disclose interests that could give rise to a conflict with the organization.”

“Witness to Love's board reviews the compensation of other non-profit organizations of similar size and serving the same geographical region to determine fair market value compensation for its employees.”

“The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements available to the public upon request.”

“What makes Witness to Love unique is that the engaged couple chooses their own mentor couple to assist with the program. The engaged couple choses a couple they both admire and see as a source of faith formation. The mentor couple volunteers their time to ensure the engaged couple inherits a "lifeline" of support in their commitment to Jesus and His Church. Our number of volunteers are determined by the number of engaged couples who choose other married couples to mentor them during their engagment. This is a completely voluteered service that provides no compensation to the married mentor couple.”
