Governance Explanations
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 2
“Gary trujillo and melissa trujillo have a family relationship.”
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 on an annual basis. The executive office monitors and makes the effort to 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 minute 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 or 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
“Balf's 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 990's from other non-profit organizations and non-profit compensation surveys/studies to determine if compensation of president/ceo is adequate. The last review occurred in january, 2017.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19
“The organization's financial statements are available on our website. Governing documents are made available to the public upon request.”

Supplemental Narrative
Financial Statement Notes
PART X, LINE 2:
“The organization adopted guidance issued by the fasb which established a single model to address accounting for uncertain tax positions and clarified the accounting for income taxes by prescribing a minimum threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. An uncertain tax position represents a tax position management determines may have a less than 50 percent chance of being sustained upon an examination by a taxing authority. While the organization does not currently include an income tax provision in the financial statements, management monitors the reporting of uncertain tax positions used in preparation of the organization's tax return, including applicable interest and penalties related to material uncertain tax positions, which could result in recording of an income tax provision in the future. The organization evaluated its tax position for all open tax years. Currently, the tax years open and subject to examination are the 2014, 2015 and 2016 tax years by the internal revenue service and the 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016 tax years by the arizona department of revenue.”
