“The treasurer of the organization distributes a pdf copy of the 990 to all board members for review and comment prior to the return being filed.”

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

“At each board and committee meeting, if there is a discussion of selecting or engaging a vendor or service provider, all in attendance are asked to recuse themselves from this discussion if there could be a perceived conflict. Annually, the organization reviews and discusses the conflict of interest policy and requests that each board member list and acknowledge any known conflicts.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“The board may hire and compensate individuals for necessary services rendered to the organization so long as such compensation is reasonable. The board shall determine reasonable compensation amounts based upon compensation paid by similarly situated nonprofits for like services. Currently there are no employees and all officers and directors are volunteers.”
