“The form 990 is reviewed by the treasurer and then provided to all board members for review and approval.”

“Documents are available upon request.”

“Overview. RR4H received recognition of its exempt status on September 28, 2016, effective December 1, 2015 and based on the approval of RR4Hs submitted Form 1023, Application for Recognition of Exemption Under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Form 1023). RR4H is organized and operated exclusively for charitable purposes. Specifically, RR4H, provides post-9/11 injured service members access to musculoskeletal treatment to relieve pain and suffering (the Program). Although the organizations exempt purposes remain generally consistent with those described in the Form 1023, RR4H wishes to make the following corrections to the description of activities contained in the Form 1023 and to provide updates regarding protections implemented with respect to the Program.Purposes. The class of eligible service members has been revised to include injured post-9/11 service members, rather than require a combat-related injury. The Board is working with legal counsel to make the requisite changes to its governing documents.Independent Board. The Board of Directors of RR4H is completely independent from Airrosti and the directors have no business or other relationship with Airrosti. However, each RR4H director has previously received treatment for an injury from Airrosti and obtained substantial relief therefrom. Treatment of all RR4H directors occurred prior to the formation of RR4H and was paid for individually by each respective director on a regular basis, with no discounts or other pro bono services received by any director from Airrosti. Founding of RR4H. Although the initial Board of Directors of RR4H and all subsequent directors have been independent from Airrosti (as further described above), Airrosti staff provided support to the Board and officers during the initial formation of RR4H.Support. During RR4Hs initial few years of existence since formation, Airrosti has provided close to 100% of the monetary support received by RR4H. RR4H is in the process of identifying how it can efficiently raise funds from the public.During this start-up phase, Airrosti has also provided in-kind support to RR4H. Due to the limited activities of RR4H, the in-kind services provided by Airrosti have been relatively moderate in amount, and it is anticipated that, as RR4H grows and secures additional public funding, the in-kind support from Airrosti will decrease and eventually cease. To date, two of Airrostis 600+ staff members provide services to RR4H at no cost and spend 3-5% of their time on RR4H activities. Under the oversight of and working with the Board of Directors, these two members of Airrosti staff developed the Program, including developing the platform and reimbursement process, conducting beta tests, coordinating with Airrosti as needed, and generally conducting the day to day activities of RR4H. Provided however, that the two staff members are not involved in the selection of Program beneficiaries. In addition, Airrosti has provided administrative support including book-keeping and accounting, back-office support, technical assistance, website and marketing services, and other administrative support. Airrosti has provided these in-kind services at no charge to RR4H. Treatment Provider; Reimbursements. At this time, all treatment under the Program is provided by Airrosti, an established provider of musculoskeletal treatments for a variety of injuries. The independent Board of Directors of RR4H selected Airrosti as the Program provider shortly after formation of RR4H. Although it is within the Boards discretion to select an alternate provider, this is not anticipated at this time. RR4H reimburses Airrosti at a reduced rate for treatment of each individual under the Program. The reimbursement rate has always been less than 85% of Airrostis cost to provide treatment (therefore, at all times, RR4H reimbursement payments to Airrosti are less than 85% of the cost to provide treatment, thereby ensuring that Airrosti is not profiti”
