Max & Therese Cadet Dental Fund Inc.

“The organization is composed of four members who are all volunteers. These members are listed on the off page. The organization holds one annual meeting on may. Additional meetings and communications via emails take place through out the year based on needs.”

“The organization makes decisions based on the outcome of the members meeting. If there is a need to elect a new member, it will be done by consensus. Not one person is responsible for the election or appointment of new members.”

“Any governing body decisions made by the organization take place via zoom meeting with every member in attendance. Decisions are voted on and adopted when the majority is in favor of it.”

“The orgasnizations governing body always has a chance to meet and review form 990 before it is file with the irs. After form 990 is completed, the president of the organization calls a meeting for the purpose of reviewing the form. Once everyone is in agreement with the form, it is then signed and sent to the irs.”

“The organization does have a conflict of interest policy compliance. Again, all decisions are made with the approval of the entire board.”

“The organization makes all governing documents available to the public through social media(internet) and also distributes copies of all documents to the members volunteers.”

“Due to the new and many challenges being confronted in haiti, the public hospital in port-au-prince did not get any support from the govenment and could no longer welcome highly skilled foreing oral surgeons who for years volunteered safely at the facility. Unable to perform maxillofacial surgeries, the public hospital began to refer patients as young as 11 years old with invasive bucccal tumors to the dental clinic. Fmc responded by collaborating with a maxillofacial surgical team under the leadership of dr. Patrick jean-gilles. In addition fmc secured hospital space at a reduced rate for the surgeries. The organization raised funds to help fmc pay hospital and doctors fees for the buccal surgeries. We paid for the expenses of sending all shipments to fmc with the funds contributed.”

“The funds received by the organization during the 2024 tax year was $32484. These moneys were used to cover all of the expenses of the organization for that year, which amounted to $29,053. Which left a total of $3,431 in funds for use on the upcoming 2025 expenses.”

“The organization spents moneys to pay for paypal fees, bank fees, boxes for shipping equipment, wire transfers sent to haiti, computer purchase payments, payments made to the individual who had paid for the computer and had to be reimbursed, and other computer parts needed for the operation of the organization in haiti, and other miscelaneous items spent by the organization.”
