Governance Explanations

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

“The Form 990 was drafted by the nonprofit's bookkeeper, Kyoko Hoda, and by the executive director and board member Peter Dunn. As the key step in the preparation, the draft was completely reviewed by Mr. Dunn before filing and as adjusted as needed.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“Peter Dunn serves as the Executive Director and as an officer (Board member and President). He received no compensation for his role as an officer. He could have taken pay for his role as Executive Director, but he volunteered to give up all of his pay and work entirely as a volunteer for about 50 hours a week. Starting many years ago, Mr. Dunn volunteered to forego between 95% and 100% of his pay to help the nonprofit be able to do more. In the year that this 990 covers, he gave up 100% of his pay. To determine his compensation, the organization followed a process of using comparability data for other executive directors at similar nonprofits. The compensation was voted on by independent members of the board of directors without Mr. Dunn's presence at the vote, and was recorded in minutes.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“We made the governing documents available to the public upon request. Also, our 990s are usually made available to the public to download via nonprofit websites such as Guidestar.”

IRS990/Desc0Published over 900 editions of information on subjects of interest and use to individuals and to the public, including philanthropy, nonprofits, human rights, world affairs, the environment, global poverty, science, health, technology and education. Most editions included text, audio clips, photos and videos. We ended the year with over 8,400 registered users, which represents only a fraction of the total users, as most users do not register. Registration and use of our sites is free. We also published most of our daily posts to four different feeds on Twitter, and had over 90,000 ongoing users signed up to follow our posts at Twitter. We also published other websites and worked on creating new websites to further accomplish our purposes of providing information to the public and promoting more volunteering and donating to nonprofits.

IRS990ScheduleA/FactsAndCircumstancesTestTxt0PART II, SECTION C - LINE 17A. The service that we're using to Efile does not allow line returns so we've used capital letters to separate the sections of text to make it easier to read. Our nonprofit organization meets the facts and circumstances test for the following reasons: A) Our mission is to publish websites providing information to the public on various topics including, but not limited to, education, the environment, human rights, modern-day slavery, poverty, international development, health, psychology and science; Encourage increased philanthropy and voluntarism, raise awareness about non-profit organizations and receive donations to support them; Give individuals ideas and tools to support nonprofits that they want to help; and give nonprofits ideas and tools to engage with their supporters and develop new supporters; Host online discussions for the public and publish email newsletters with information related to various topics including the ones mentioned above. In the previous year, we published over 1,100 editions of our websites that do the above, including DailySource.org. Most editions included text, audio clips, photos and videos. B) Our service appeals to a wide swath of the public, and is not limited to a particular community or region. We also do not focus on appealing to any particular age group, gender or race. C) Our websites are entirely free of charge to the public. We do not charge for visiting the sites, nor for registering. In addition, all of our past editions are made available to the public online for free on a continuous basis in our archive sections. Most parts of our websites are accessible without registering. The other portions are accessible for free for any person from the public who wants to spend a minute registering. D) A lot of our support comes through contributions of time that save us very large amounts of money we'd otherwise need to spend on staff. On average we have over 40 volunteers donate over 6,500 volunteer hours a year. The nonprofit association Independent Sector provides national rates for the value of services from volunteers that it updates annually from Bureau of Labor Statics data. For calendar year 2017, they estimated the dollar value of volunteer time is $24.14 per hour: https://independentsector.org/news-post/value-volunteer-time/. Their number comes from the Bureau of Labor Statics average wage figure increased by 12 percent to estimate for fringe benefits such as FICA. Based on their recommended figure, volunteers gave us over $750,000 in support over the last 5 years. The IRS rules do not allow us to list that on the chart, yet it is support from the public. If these hours counted towards support using the Independent Sector's suggested number, then over 50% of our support over the past 5 years came from the public. Even if a much lower figure like $18 an hour is used, it still means over 40% of our real-life support comes from the public. E) Our board is a mix of men and women from different states and different work backgrounds who represent a broad cross-section of public interests and views. Board member Peter Dunn is a journalist, a former consultant for Fortune 500 executives at companies such as Google and Fidelity Investments and former business owner who has volunteered for numerous nonprofits. He is located in Florida. Board member Amy Luchans has 10 years of experience in the Internet and web services sectors, and has also been Associate Director of Alumni and University Relations at Brandeis University, Assistant Director for Student Activities at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, a publications editor, an instructional designer, and a marketing and technical business consultant. Board member Michael Kolar is a personal/professional coach and seminar leader, and is based in St. Paul, MN. Board Member Susan Barron is President of the Alumni Association of Lawrence Academy, an independent high school in Groton, MA. She also volunteers for the Paren
