Afterschool Alliance

“The form 990 was prepared by the firm's auditors and reviewed by the sr vp of finance and administration before being sent to the executive director and sr vp of external affairs. If there were comments or questions, they were discussed with the firm's auditors. After the 990 was reviewed, it was sent to the chair of the audit committee for review and approval. Once the 990 was approved by the chair of the audit committee, the 990 form was sent to the full board for final review before it was filed with the irs.”

“All board members and staff are required to complete and submit a signed and dated conflict of interest policy annually, indicating that they have read and comply with the policy. A checklist is maintained and monitored. Follow up email requests and/or telephone calls are made until all outstanding policies are received. If a conflict of interest occurs, the board member involved recuses him/herself from voting on the matter in question.”

“The executive committee of the afterschool alliance board reviews the executive director's performance and the chair takes the lead on making a recommendation to the rest of the executive committee. This recommendation of the executive director's compensation and/or bonus is then approved to reflect performance achievements. The board also used comparable organization's 990s from guidestar as guidelines for comparable data. The last compensation review was completed in december 2024 and the decision was documented in the employee's file. All staff are subject to an annual salary review and revision that is approved by the executive director and subject to board revision. Afterschool alliance policy states that any raise equal to an increase of 10% or more of an employee's current salary must be approved, in advance, by the board.”

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