Governance Explanations

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

“The form 990 was prepared by the outside accountants and provided to all board members for review and comments prior to filing with the irs.”

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

“Conflicts of interest are discussed and monitored during board meetings. The directors of polar bears international resolve that no member of the board of directors participates in any discussion or vote on any matter in which he or she or a member of his or her immediate family has potential conflict of interest due to having material economic involvement regarding the matter being discussed. When such a situation presents itself, the director announces his or her belief that there is a potential conflict, disqualify themselves, and be excused from the meeting until discussion is over on the matter involved.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“Compensation of the executive director and salaried employees is reviewed by the chair of the board and approved by the entire board of directors. Polar bear international (pbi) participates in and uses the associated employers benefits survey, the form 990s from comparable nonprofits, and then factors in cost of living to determine compensation. The discussion of compensation is held in private during the executive session following a board meeting and the approval of the compensation budget is recorded in the meeting minutes. The last compensation review process for the executive director took place november 2024. The executive director utilizes the associated employers compensation & benefits data book to make recommendations to the board for staff salaries.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“The governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements are available to the public on the organization's website and an annual report is provided to all major donors and sponsors.”
