Governance Explanations

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

The Form 990 was completed by an outside accounting firm and an initial draft is reviewed by the organization's chairman. The Form 990 is approved by the organization's audit and finance committee prior to filing.

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

The conflict of interest policy covers all directors, officers, and full time employees of the Be A Leader Foundation (BALF). BALF sends the conflict of interest policy, survey and acknowledgement form to the Board of Directors and full-time staff members of an annual basis. The executive office monitors and makes the effortto ensure all board members and full time staff members complete the survey and signs the conflict of interest acknowledgement form and then files such survey results and acknowledgement forms in the corporate minutes book. The board of directors and staff is educated annually on the conflict of interest policy. If a covered person has an actual or possible conflict of interest, he or she must disclose the existence and nature of his or her financial interest to the directors and members of committees with board delegated powers considering the proposed transaction or arrangement. After disclosure of the financial interest, the interested person must leave the board or committee meeting while the financial interest is discussed and voted upon. The remaining board of committee members shall decide if a conflict of interest exists. If the board of directors identifies a conflict of interest, that individual would be recused from participating in the deliberation and vote of such matter.

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

BALFs Human Resource committee, a subcommittee of independent board members, reviews and determines the compensation of the President/CEO on an annual basis. The human resource committee reviews data such as Form 990s from other non-profit organizations and non-profit compensation surveys/studies to determine ifcompensation of the President/CEO is adequate. The last review occurred in November 2021.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

The organization's governing documents are made available to the public upon request. The financial statements are available on our website.

Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Part X : FIN48 Footnote

The Organization qualifies as a tax-exempt organization under Section 501 (c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and, therefore, has no provision for income taxes. In addition, The Organization qualifies for the charitable contribution deduction under Section 170(b)(1)(A) and has been classified as an organization that is not a private foundation under Section 509(a)(2).The Organization adopted the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, on January 1, 2009. As required by the uncertain tax position guidance in ASC 740, the Organization recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authoritywould more likely than not sustain the position after an audit. At the adoption date, the Organization applied the uncertain tax position guidance in ASC 740 to all tax positions for which the statute of limitations has remained open. As a result of the implementation of the uncertain tax position guidance in ASC 740, the Organization has not recognized additional liability for unrecognized tax benefits nor any interest and penalties as of December 31, 2024. Management does not anticipate that this will change significantly in the next twelve months.The Organization files income tax returns in the U. S. federal jurisdiction. Tax regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to interpretation of the related tax laws and regulations and requiresignificant judgment to apply. With few exceptions, The Organization is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2021.

IRS990/Desc0Our vision is where all students have the opportunity to succeed in higher education and have the skills and resources to ensure personal success. We have created a successful template of college going programs and now serve well over 14,000 a year. Be A Leaders theory of change rests on the belief that providing students with guidance, mentorship, access to resources, and empowerment enhances theirchances of pursuing a higher education. Our students have all the potential to succeed academically and pursue a postsecondary education but are many times lacking the external support and resources needed to finish the college going equation. Support from caring adults is a significant component to our services and helping our students succeed. Our volunteers serve as mentors to help guide the college going conversation with students. For our seniors, senior boot camp coaches play a crucial role in helping our students meet critical senior year deadlines.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The Organization qualifies as a tax-exempt organization under Section 501 (c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and, therefore, has no provision for income taxes. In addition, The Organization qualifies for the charitable contribution deduction under Section 170(b)(1)(A) and has been classified as an organization that is not a private foundation under Section 509(a)(2).The Organization adopted the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, on January 1, 2009. As required by the uncertain tax position guidance in ASC 740, the Organization recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authoritywould more likely than not sustain the position after an audit. At the adoption date, the Organization applied the uncertain tax position guidance in ASC 740 to all tax positions for which the statute of limitations has remained open. As a result of the implementation of the uncertain tax position guidance in ASC 740, the Organization has not recognized additional liability for unrecognized tax benefits nor any interest and penalties as of December 31, 2024. Management does not anticipate that this will change significantly in the next twelve months.The Organization files income tax returns in the U. S. federal jurisdiction. Tax regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to interpretation of the related tax laws and regulations and requiresignificant judgment to apply. With few exceptions, The Organization is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2021.
