Wildfire Network

“The Vice President, Ashley Rogers, is married to the President and Executive Director of the Wildfire Network, Chris Taylor Rogers. Because of this, the board made sure that the majority of the members were non family members, and the three remaining board members do not have a family or business relationship with any other board member.”

“As of 2023 there were no committees with authority to act on behalf of the governing board, therefore no documentation for such committees was kept on file.”

“The Finance Department and the Executive Director work alongside one another to complete the 990 form and the necessary schedules. Once completed, the Finance Department emails a pdf copy to all of the board members for reviewal. Once the majority of the remaining board members have sent confirmation of receipt of the 990 and its reviewal, the Finance Department & Executive Director discuss and make and any necessary adjustments submitted by the board. Once the adjustments have been made and the form is ready for submission, the Finance Department e-files the return with the IRS.”

“During December of 2023 all board members were sent a digital copy of the conflict of interest policy and each docu-signed a copy of it to be kept on file. If there are any conflicts, those are disclosed at the last meeting of the year, however there were no conflicts of interest for any of the board members during 2023. This is a part of the annual end of year board procedures to review and sign a copy of the conflict of interest policy.”

“At the end of each year, as part of the budgeting process, all staff salaries are reviewed and upon approval, are adjusted for the following year. The Executive Director approves all other staff members salary changes besides his own. Once the Finance Department and Executive Director have both agreed that a salary change needs to be made to the Executive Director's salary, he submits a request to the board for a change of salary. If all remaining board members agree to the salary adjustment, the Finance Department makes the necessary adjustments for the following year.”

“For access to all governing documents, the Wildfire Network discloses these upon request from the interested party. Financial statements from previous years and our Whistle Blower policy are on the footer of our main webpage www.wildfire.church via the "Make a Report" option.”
