“The executive compensation committee has the responsibility of overseeing invisible children's executive compensation program. The committee recognizes that in order for invisible children to achieve its ambitious goals, the organization must be able to attract, retain, and reward qualified executives who will be able to operate effectively in a challenging and complex environment. The committee is chaired by a disinterested board member. The committee researches salaries of comparable positions, reviews performance of executives, and then recommends the compensation of such individuals to the board at large. Compensation is set by a board vote after reviewing the recommendation of the committee. The executives are not present for the vote.”
