Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 6

“The rapides foundation, the orchard foundation's supported organization, is the sole member of the orchard foundation.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 7A

“As sole member of the orchard foundation, the rapides foundation appoints the board members of the orchard foundation through action of the foundation's trustee board. Each orchard foundation trustee is elected for a three-year term.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 7B

“The only powers reserved to the member (the rapides foundation) are the appointment of board members and the final approval of any amendment to or repeal of the orchard foundation's articles of incorporation or bylaws.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11

“A final copy of the orchard foundation form 990 is furnished to the audit committee of the rapides foundation board (trf), orchard foundation's supported organization, for review and approval, and a meeting is held to discuss the form 990 in detail. The meeting is attended by staff that assisted in compiling the form, as well as, representatives of the external accounting firm who compiled the form. All trf and orchard foundation board members receive the final form 990 copy when it is sent to the audit committee, and all board members are invited to attend the audit committee meeting to review and approve the form.”

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

“The rapides foundation, orchard foundation's supported organization, has both a "staff code of ethics and conduct" and a "trustee code of ethics and conduct," both of which define and describe actions to be taken in the event of conflicts of interest. Orchard foundation operates under rapides foundation policies and procedures. The "staff code of ethics and conduct" is monitored and enforced through organizational procedures, controls and daily supervision of employees by the next level of management. The "trustee code of ethics and conduct" is monitored at each board meeting, because the first agenda item is one in which board members are asked to disclose any potential conflicts with listed agenda items. A member that has a potential conflict of interest with a matter that comes before the board or committee is required to leave the room before the matter is discussed, and a majority vote of the remaining disinterested board members determine whether a conflict actually exists. If a conflict is determined to exist, then the conflicted member is not allowed to be present during board discussion and vote on the issue creating the conflict. Each year, board members and key employees are required to complete a conflict of interest questionnaire to disclose business and personal relationships that could be potential conflicts of interests.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“The rapides foundation is a supported organization of the orchard foundation. The rapides foundation provides employees to the orchard foundation through a lease agreement. It also employs the orchard foundation's executive director. The rapides foundation's board compensation committee, which is composed of the independent members of its executive committee, periodically engages a third-party compensation consultant to provide market information concerning pay and benefits and make compensation structure recommendations for all rapides foundation positions as well as positions for its supporting organizations. The consultant is provided with job descriptions for all job positions. The consultant then compares those jobs with similar positions at similar types and sizes of organizations. The consultant meets with the compensation committee and provides the comparison data, along with their recommendations for pay ranges for each position (minimum, midpoint, maximum). Recommendations are based upon market averages of similar types and sizes of organizations. In interim years, increases in pay ranges are recommended to the board by management, based on survey information of similar organizations. The ceo and two directors of the rapides foundation are considered key employees. The ceo recommends the pay for the two directors and a salary budget for the remaining employees of the rapides foundation and its supporting organizations to the compensation committee for approval. The compensation committee independently discusses its recommendations for ceo pay. Minutes of all meetings are recorded and maintained. The rapides foundation ceo submits his recommendation for the orchard foundation executive director's salary to the orchard foundation board of directors for approval annually. Minutes of the meeting are recorded.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“The rapides foundation, orchard's supported organization, makes its staff code of ethics and conduct, trustee code of ethics and conduct, and annual report (including financial statements) available on the organization's website at www.rapidesfoundation.org. The orchard foundation website links to the rapides foundation website.”

“The process has not changed from the prior year.”

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The foundation is a nonprofit organization and exempt from federal income taxes under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been made in the financial statements, but the foundation is required to file an annual information tax return. The foundation is also required to review various tax positions it has taken with respect to its exempt status and determine whether in fact it is a tax exempt entity. The foundation must also consider whether it has nexus in jurisdictions in which it has income and whether a tax return is required in those jurisdictions. In addition, as a tax exempt entity, the foundation must assess whether it has any tax positions associated with unrelated business income subject to income tax. The foundation does not expect its positions to change significantly over the next twelve months. Any penalties related to late filing or other requirements would be recognized as penalties expense in the foundation's accounting records. The foundation files u.s. Federal form 990 for informational purposes. The foundation's federal income tax returns for the tax years 2011 and beyond remain subject to examination by the internal revenue service.”

DURING 2014, ALL PUBLIC HIGH SCHOOLS IN THE FOUNDATION'S SERVICE AREA ACCESSED CAREER READY 101, A CAREER TRAINING COURSE THAT PREPARES STUDENTS FOR CERTIFICATION WITH WORKKEYS ASSESSMENTS. WORKKEYS IS A JOB SKILLS ASSESSMENT SYSTEM MEASURING REAL WORLD SKILLS THAT EMPLOYERS BELIEVE ARE CRITICAL TO JOB SUCCESS. WORKKEYS ASSESSMENT SCORES IN THREE CORE AREAS: APPLIED MATHEMATICS, READING FOR INFORMATION, AND LOCATING INFORMATION, DETERMINE A STUDENT'S NATIONAL CAREER READINESS CERTIFICATE (NCRC) LEVEL, AN OBJECTIVE DOCUMENTATION OF AN EMPLOYEE'S SKILLS THAT CAN BE ACCEPTED NATIONWIDE. DURING THE 2013-2014 SCHOOL YEAR, 4,740 STUDENTS PARTICIPATED IN CAREER READY 101 TRAINING, AND 2,809 STUDENTS ACHIEVED NCRC CERTIFICATION. IN 2014 THE ORCHARD FOUNDATION ALSO PARTNERED WITH THE CENTRAL LOUISIANA ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY TO ASSIST EMPLOYERS IN UTILIZING WORKKEYS AND NCRC IN THEIR HIRING PROCESSES. BOTH RAPIDES AND AVOYELLES PARISHES BECAME ACT CERTIFIED WORK READY COMMUNITIES IN 2014 AS PART OF AN ACT PILOT PROJECT. ALLEN, CATAHOULA, CONCORDIA, GRANT, LASALLE, NATCHITOCHES, VERNON AND WINN PARISHES BEGAN TO WORK TOWARD THEIR CERTIFICATION IN SEPTEMBER 2014 AS PART OF ACT'S 2ND ROUND OF CERTIFICATION. THE ORCHARD FOUNDATION FACILITATED A CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY COURSE (CTC), WHICH IS A COMBINATION OF HANDS-ON AND TEXTBOOK INSTRUCTION AND UTILIZES TEXT BOOKS CERTIFIED AND APPROVED BY THE NATIONAL CENTER FOR CONSTRUCTION EDUCATION AND RESEARCH (NCCER), TO INSTRUCT STUDENTS. CO-SPONSORED BY TWO LOCAL EMPLOYERS, IT IS DESIGNED TO HELP STUDENTS GAIN TECHNICAL AND INDUSTRIAL KNOWLEDGE AND ENCOURAGE THEM TO PURSUE A CAREER IN CONSTRUCTION. THE COURSE WAS OFFERED IN 6 AREA HIGH SCHOOLS, AND 79 STUDENTS COMPLETED THE CTC COURSE IN 2014. A WELDING CURRICULUM THAT PREPARES HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS FOR WELDING CAREERS IN VARIOUS INDUSTRIAL SETTINGS WAS OFFERED IN 3 CENTRAL LOUISIANA SCHOOLS. THE PROGRAM PROVIDES TRAINING IN INDUSTRY FUNDAMENTALS, PRINT READING, LAYOUT/FABRICATION AND THERMAL CUTTING. HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS THAT SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETE THE COURSE ARE REGISTERED INTO THE NCCER DATABASE FOR POTENTIAL EMPLOYMENT IN WELDING. DURING 2014, 116 STUDENTS COMPLETED THE WELDING COURSE. IN 2014, THE ORCHARD FOUNDATION ASSISTED RAPIDES PARISH IN WINNING A $150,000 STATE "JUMP START" GRANT. IN JANUARY 2015, ORCHARD FACILITATED A CAREER EXPO FOR 2,194 8TH GRADE STUDENTS WHICH BROUGHT STUDENTS IN TO LEARN ABOUT THE SKILLS AND EDUCATION NEEDED TO PURSUE CAREERS WITH 30 EMPLOYERS THROUGH HANDS ON EXPLORATION, DEMONSTRATIONS AND DISCUSSION.
