International Order of the Rainbow Girls Supreme Assembly

“This is a youth organization. Members are girls between the ages of 11 and 21, plus their adult advisors.”

“The Supreme Worthy Advisor has ultimate responsibility for the accuracy and filing of the required Form 990 tax returns. After the Form 990 is prepared by a CPA firm, the Supreme Worthy Advisor and / or the Treasurer presents the Tax Return to the governing body. However, there may be times when there is no scheduled meeting of the governing body before the due date of the tax return. In that case, the tax return is filed timely and is then presented to the governing body at its next scheduled meeting.”

“There is a required questionaire that is completed each year by adult advisors. Anyone found to be not in compliance is given an opportunity to conform (depending on severity of conflict). Anyone found still not in compliance is removed from positions of authority within the organization.”

“When possible, the Organization follows the guidelines established by the American Society of Association Executives (ASAE)for level of education and experience required. A review is conducted of the pay scales within the State of Oklahoma (organization home office) to determine targeted salary and other compensation.”

“Compensation, if any, of all officers is reviewed by the Executive Board. However, this is a volunteer organization and officers are normally not compensated, except for substantiated expense reimbursements. Using the IRS definition for key employees, there are no key employees within this organization.”

“Organization keeps a Public copy available at its headquarters of: (1) Its original Form 1023 application for recognition of exemption; (2) Form 990 for the three (3) years after the form was required to be filed or, if later, when it was actually filed; and (3) Its Form 990-T for the same three (3) year period, when required to be filed.”
