Governance Explanations

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

“Form 990 was reviewed by the board prior to filing.”

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

“The conflict of interest policy prevents inappropriate private interests. To ensure compliance, our organization follows these steps: 1. At the start of each fiscal year, every board member must fill out a "conflict of interest" form with a series of questions confirming the absence of any conflicts. 2. Throughout the year, we provide training sessions that reinforce our policy and increase awareness of potential conflict situations. 3. We have established efficient procedures for resolving any conflict-of-interest situations should they arise.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“In cooperation with international search firm carney sandoe (based in boston), dr. Brian carpenter (educational consultant) and also comparing comp packages with similar organizations, the board developed the ceo / executive director's compensation package. Compensation for other officers is compared to industry standards using a normal search with broad benchmarks and subject to the board's approval.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“Governing documents are available upon request.”

Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Part XII, Line 2C

“There has been no change to the organization's oversight or review process.”

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The foundation qualifies as a tax-exempt organization as described in internal revenue code section 501(c)(3) and has been classified by the internal revenue service as a publicly supported organization and not as a private foundation. However, income from certain activities not directly related to the foundation's tax-exempt purpose is subject to taxation as unrelated business income. The foundation follows the statutory requirements for its income tax accounting and generally avoids risks associated with potentially problematic tax positions that may be challenged upon examination. Management believes any liability resulting from taxing authorities imposing additional income taxes from activities deemed to be unrelated to the foundation's tax-exempt status would not have a material effect on the foundation's consolidated financial statements.”

Form 990 Part X

“There are no uncertain tax liabilities at december 31, 2023 under fin 48 (asc 740).”
