Governance Explanations

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

“The organization does not have any committees that can act on behalf of the governing body.”

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

“The organization hires an independent accounting firm to prepare the federal form 990. Upon submission of the draft, the form 990 is reviewed by the chief executive officer and board of directors before the return is filed with the internal revenue service.”

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

“The conflict of interest policies apply to the board of directors, the ceo and all staff members. Staff members report any potential conflicts to the ceo, the ceo is empowered to determine if a conflict exists and evaluates based on the policy. In the case of the ceo or a board member having a potential conflict, the matter is brought before the full board for disclosure and discussion. The individual reporting the conflict is excluded from deliberations and voting regarding the conflict.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15A

“In determining ceo compensation, the hiring team employed best practices to ensure an equitable salary based on market rates as established by similar organizations. This involved benchmarking against comparable organizations and conducting a compensation study to validate findings. The ceo's compensation was determined to be in line with market rates and reflective of their contributions to the organization's success.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements available to the public upon request.”
