“Line 1aBoard Trustees serve for calendar year terms. Those that served only the first half of the fiscal year (July-Decmember) are listed as "Trustee Pt. Yr. or Trustees serving only part of the year. Four Board Trustees were replaced in January, bringing the overall total of Board members at the end of the fiscal year to 20 total members.Line 1bMary Casillas, CEO, and Mark Robinson, CFO of San Benito Health Care District, serve on the Foundation Board of Trustees. Due to their compensation as Officers of a related organization to the Foundation, their voting independence is compromised. Since they are officers of an entity doing business with the Foundation, they have been reported on schedule L. A Board Trustee of the organization is also a family member to a substantial contributor (contributor whose contributions both: exceed $5000 and are required to be listed on Schedule B). This transaction both impairs the trustee's voting independence on the Foundation's Board of Trustees and is reportable on Schedule L as a grant/assistance transaction.”

“The amount on line 1e is the amount paid on the Foundation's behalf for operating expenses, less donated services. It is listed on this line because the San Benito Health Care District paid these expenses, and the District is a political subdivision of the State of California (a Government entity). This amount could also be listed on line 1d, as the San Benito Health Care District is a related organization to the Foundation. Since it can only be reported in one place, line 1e was chosen as the more appropriate description to remain consistent with other required reporting on Form 990, Schedule A and State of California tax forms.”

“Compensation of Officers and other employees is not paid by the Foundation, as the value of these services is donated by the San Benito Health Care District. The District also pays the Foundation's other expenses, aside from grants and donations. The Foundation and the San Benito Health Care District are related organizations, as they have common agents.”
