“Certain board members received a stipend for 2018 for their board committee work related to humangood. No compensation is paid to any board members for their role on this organization's board. Board stipends: commencing two years after the may 1, 2016 affiliation of humangood norcal and humangood socal, the seven-member humangood board began receiving general and meeting specific stipends for their service to the top governing organization, humangood. An evaluation was performed of similarly complex non-profit organizations to determine the reasonableness of the stipend amount for the hours committed to governance. No remuneration is attributable to service by these seven board members on boards of other humangood affiliates. The remuneration is taxable to each of the members and reported annually on form 1099 in addition to disclosure in the form 990. Based on receiving this remuneration and the advice of tax consultants, these board members are not reflected as being independent directors.”
