Be Present Inc.

“The Interim CEO/Board Member, Lillie P. Allen, and the Treasurer/Director of Finance, Kathleen Lillis are married.”

“The Treasurer and other staff members draft relevant parts of the Form 990 and Schedules and email them to the accountant. The accountant completes the draft of the Form 990 and emails it to the Treasurer, who reviews it and contacts the accountant with any clarifications or corrections. After this review, the Treasurer forwards the revised draft to the Interim CEO, consultants and staff to review and contact the accountant if they have questions. Then the draft is sent to the full Board of Directors. The draft is reviewed, corrected as necessary and then approved by the Board of Directors by consensus. The Treasurer then sends the final, approved copy to the accountant to prepare the final Form 990, which is then signed by the principal officer and filed with the IRS, GA, WA and CA. Electronic copies of the final, signed Form 990 are emailed to the Board of Directors.”

“BPI is a small NPO where the Board, Officers and Staff are in regular communication on an almost weekly basis. As part of the beginning of each meeting, there are "check-in's", where each person brings the other people at the meeting up-to-date on what they are doing, among other things. This process works well to monitor if any conflicts of interest arise. In addition, the board, employees and officers complete a conflict of interest and board independence questionnaire on an annual basis.”

“All of Be Present, Inc.'s governing documents, conflict of interest policy, board of directors independence questionnaires, and financial statements are available to the public by request. The requested documents can be reviewed at the Be Present, Inc. office, sent electronically or by mail. When funding permits, some of the documents will be available on the Be Present website.”
