Governance Explanations

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 11B

“Our 990 was prepared collaboratively by our team and our accountants, and was precipitated by a full external audit. The draft was reviewed by our board treasurer and our chief operating officer, and signed by our board treasurer and secretary.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 12C

“Our conflict of interest policy is fully utilised in our board meetings, especially with respect to decisions involving interested parties.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 15A

“In our team, compensation is decided through a rigorous process of comparing market rates for the type of work we do, and then aligning that with our internal restrictions. We limit salaries to under 150k, and only make very rare exceptions that do not exceed 160k.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 19

“Our governing documents including bylaws, and 1023, are available to anyone in our community within our filing system, and available to the general public upon written request.”
