Governance Explanations

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

“Prior to submission to the irs, form 990 is provided to the principal officer and governing body of the organization for review.”

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

“Officers, directors and employees are under an ongoing obligation to disclose any potential conflicts of interest once they become aware of such a potential conflict. Officers, directors and employees review and assent to the conflict of interest policy annually. All material facts concerning any diclosed conflicts are provided to the board of directors for deliberations; the board votes upon appropriate action while the interested person is excused. Legal counsel, as well as the organization's treasurer and secretary routinely monitor organizational expenses for possible conflicts of interest and direct such conflicts to the attention of the board for resolution in accordance with the conflict of interest policy.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“Compensation of the ceo is determined by an examination of comparable data for other ceo's in the industry countrywide and in the chicagoland area. The information from that research is shared with the board of directors who then approve compensation for the ceo. Note that an independent consultant is not utilized in the process. For other officers and key employees the compensation proces is the same with the ceo having full discretion as delegated by the board of directors.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“All governing documents, policies and financial statements will be available to the public upon request.”

IRS990/Desc0PROJECT SIX CONDUCTS INVESTIGATIONS AIMED AT EXPOSING CORRUPTION AND WASTE OCCURRING IN CHICAGO AND ILLINOIS. SINCE ITS INCEPTION IN 2016, PROJECT SIX HAS UNVEILED INVESTIGATIONS INTO CORRUPTION IN CHICAGO THAT RAISED SIGNIFICANT INTEREST AND QUESTIONS ABOUT THE CONDUCT OF OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS AND THE CONSEQUENCE OF THEIR ACTIONS. IN ITS FIRST YEAR, PROJECT SIX RECEIVED 106 TIPS FROM WHISTLEBLOWERS AND CITIZENS AND PRODUCTED 27 REPORTS. CAMPAIGN FINANCE FRAUD WAS REPORTED, TAX-DOLLAR WASTE WAS QUESTIONED, A HIGH-LEVEL CITY EMPLOYEE RESIGNED BECAUSE OF A CONFLICT OF INTEREST, AND A NUMBER OF REFERRALS WERE MADE TO GOVERNMENT AGENCIES RESPONSIBLE FOR ETHICS AND CRIMINAL OVERSIGHT AS A RESULT OF THESE INVESTIGATIONS. BY INFORMING AND EDUCATING TAXPAYERS, ENGAGING WITH OUTSIDE MEDIA, LEGAL AND GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, PROJECT SIX CONTINUES TO MOBILIZE CHANGE AND BRING ATTENTION TO SYSTEMIC ISSUES.
