“This Form 990 was provided to the President (along with other Directors) via email, who then reviewed and approved it for filing.”

“Persons covered - Directors, officers, staff members, committee members, major donors, and other disqualified persons (collectively, Associates), as well as their personal and business interests. (A separate, less detailed policy applies to employees.)Monitoring proposed or ongoing transactions for conflicts - Associates have an ongoing obligation to disclose any actual and potential conflicts of interest as they may arise. In addition, annually, each Associate shall provide a Conflicts of Interest Disclosure Report to the Board of the Directors. Associates shall disclose any affiliation with any individual or entity with which the Corporation is doing or may do business. Such entities may include those that sell or lease property, lend money or extend credit, or furnish goods, services, or facilities to the Corporation. The Corporation shall periodically review its compliance with these policies, as well as its compliance with self-dealing and conflicts of interest requirements of federal and state law. When conducting these reviews, the Corporation may, but need not, use outside advisors.Dealing with potential conflicts and the level at which determinations of whether a conflict exists are made - Potential conflicts are considered at board and committee meetings much like actual conflicts.Dealing with actual conflicts, the level at which actual conflicts are reviewed, and restrictions imposed on the interested person - To the extent that the affiliation violates state or federal law, the Corporation shall not engage in business with that individual or entity, or shall terminate its relationship with the conflicted Associate. If the affiliation does not violate the law, the Board of Directors shall determine whether the Corporation can obtain with reasonable efforts a more advantageous transaction or arrangement from a person or entity that would not give rise to a conflict of interest. If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably possible, then the Board of Directors shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested directors whether the transaction or arrangement is in the Corporations best interest, and whether it is fair and reasonable.”

“The President gathered comparable wage data from GuideStar.org, Chronicle of Philanthropy & Nonprofit HR surveys, and IRS 990 public records, and recommended a wage level to the Board of Directors. The Board approved the recommendation, as was documented in the minutes. This process was last undertaken in December 2024.”
