Governance Explanations

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

“The board has charged the financial committee with reviewing the audit and form 990 prior to filing.”

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

“The conflict of interest policy applies to all directors, officers, and staff members of af4c. The purpose of the conflict of interest policy is to ensure that if af4c enters into a transaction that might benefit the private interest of a director, officer or staff member of af4c, that the interests of af4c are protected. If a potential conflict should arise, then the interested person would make a presentation to the board or finance committee to decide if a conflict existed and to review the conflict. If a conflict did exist, then the board, without the person of interest, would meet to ensure af4c's interests were protected.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“Governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements are available to the public upon request.”
