The Executive Committee members are elected to the committee during the annual meeting of the corporation.

Financial Statement Notes

IV 2B

“Once an adopting family, for full adoption, is matched with a birthmother, the family and mother agree on an amount of personal expenses that the mom will incur during the pregnancy and be reimbursed by the adopting family. The birthmother completes a birthparent contribution consent form indicating what she needs the money for and both the birthparent and adoptive parents sign this consent form agreeing to the dollar amount and use of the funds. When the agency receives the money they hold it in escrow and make disbursements to the birthmother for items such as rent, groceries, clothing and other related costs for her general living expenses during the pregnancy. The agency tracks all receipts and expenses of each mother on a separate schedule.”

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0Once an adopting family, for full adoption, is matched with a birthmother, the family and mother agree on an amount of personal expenses that the mom will incur during the pregnancy and be reimbursed by the adopting family. The birthmother completes a birthparent contribution consent form indicating what she needs the money for and both the birthparent and adoptive parents sign this consent form agreeing to the dollar amount and use of the funds. When the agency receives the money they hold it in escrow and make disbursements to the birthmother for items such as rent, groceries, clothing and other related costs for her general living expenses during the pregnancy. The agency tracks all receipts and expenses of each mother on a separate schedule.
