“A responsible person in a conflict of interest is required to immediately inform those charged with approving the conflicting interest transaction of this relationship. The conflicting interest transaction is not approved unless material facts of the relationship, interest, or transaction are disclosed or known to the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors then either approve or prohibit the transaction by vote.”

“The Foundation makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request. https://www.gvcasentinelfoundation.org”

“Additional Capital Contributions 71,312.”

“The process established by the committee responsible for oversight of the audit has not changed.”

“The Sentinel Foundation's Form 990 is amended to change the public charity status from an organization described in Section 509(a)(1) (Schedule A, box 12 of the 990, which was selected in error) to an organization described in Section 170(b)(1)(A)(vi) (Schedule A, box 7). Based on the IRS' recognition of The Sentinel Foundation as a 170(b)(1)(A)(vi) public charity status in the IRS letter 947 dated August 20, 2019, the Foundation has changed its public charity status on Schedule A, Part I accordingly. Schedule A, Part II, Sections A and B have been completed to report the public support provided to the Foundation along with the portion of the contributions exceeding 2% of that public support. The information contained in Part IV Supporting Organizations and on box 12, line g of Part I has been removed since the Foundation has never been a Type 1 supporting organization, according to its IRS-designated public charity status. Similarly, the supplemental information described in Part VI for contributions by donors who serve on the governing body of a supported organization has been removed. The contributions reported on line 3 of Schedule B, Part 1 have been adjusted from $48,000 to $46,700 to reflect the correct amount of contributions by this donor.”
