Additional Explanations

Pt VI, Line 6

“Any changes to the by-laws are subject to approval by members, additional requirements are outlined in the organizations by-laws.”

Pt VI, Line 11B

“Each form 990 is approved by the board officers for filing; the treasurer then reports to the board members at the next meeting; copies are available to all board members after it is finalized.”

Pt VI, Line 12C

“The conflict of interest policy is reviewed annually with all board members and they are asked to disclose any potential conflict of interest at that time or throughout the year as any such conflict may arise.”
