My Catholic Faith Ministries

“Dr. Tom Curran is the paid Executive Director of the organization and the President of the Board of Directors. Dr. Curran's wife, Kari Curran, serves as the Vice President on the Board of Directors, an unpaid position. Kari Curran's sister, Martha McKenna, serves as an individual member on the Board of Directors, an unpaid position. Katy Leslie is a key employee of My Catholic Faith Ministries and serves as the Secretary on the Board of Directors.”

“Board members are emailed the Form 990 for review before it is submitted to the IRS. Each Board member receives a hard copy of the Form 990 at our annual meeting. A summary of the form is presented and members may ask questions or make comments. The Treasurer is prepared with supplemental documents and financials reports in order to answer questions and facilitate discussion.”

“The Conflict of Interest policy is reviewed at the Annual Board meeting and is also discussed at staff meetings (as needed) each year to ensure that all staff are aware of its contents and how it affects them in the workplace.”

“The Board of Directors reviews the Executive Director's salary at the annual meeting. If it is determined that an increase is warranted, then there is a vote for this purpose. The Executive Director and his wife are excused from the discussion and the execution of this vote. The Treasurer brings to the meeting at least three written examples (with supporting documentation) of the annual salaries of Directors of organizations that are similar in size, purpose or annual revenue. These documents are taken into consideration when setting the Directors' salary. In addition, the Board considers the financial state of the organization and the Directors' performance.”

“The Form 990 and all attachments and policies are available upon request and by appointment at the organization's office or by mail. In addition, the Form 990 is available for viewing online at GuideStar.org.”

“In the middle of 2015, Dr. Tom Curran, the Executive Director and President of My Catholic Faith Ministries made a decision to no longer offer live event speaking services outside the office (e.g. at churches or retreat centers) through the ministry. This was related to a shift in strategy for how the ministry would generate revenue and utilize Dr. Curran's time, and also permit Dr. Curran to provide this type of speaking service through other channels.”
