Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 8B

“There are no committees with the authority to act on behalf of the board.”

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

“The 990 is filled out and reviewed by key officers, but the full board does not review.”

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

“The organization disseminates key governance and conflict-of-interest policies to board members and requires disclosure of any potential issues as they arise. In 2024, all key decisions and contractual commitments were reviewed and signed by the Board Treasurer or Board President, providing oversight and documentation. Matters requiring further review were elevated to the full board and recorded in the minutes.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0There are no committees with the authority to act on behalf of the board.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1The 990 is filled out and reviewed by key officers, but the full board does not review.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2The organization disseminates key governance and conflict-of-interest policies to board members and requires disclosure of any potential issues as they arise. In 2024, all key decisions and contractual commitments were reviewed and signed by the Board Treasurer or Board President, providing oversight and documentation. Matters requiring further review were elevated to the full board and recorded in the minutes.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt3Upon Request.
