Explanation
F990_P05_S00_L01c
Form 990, Part V, Line 1c
The Community Foundation complied with backup withholding rules for reportable payments to vendors as the organization did not have any vendors that failed to furnish its taxpayer identification number (TIN) to us, and we were not notified by the IRS to impose backup withholding because a payee furnished an incorrect TIN.
F990_P06_S0A_L01a
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 1a
The Community Foundation's Executive Committee is made up the officers of the Foundation, members of various standing committees of the Board and other trustees who serve at the Chair's invitation and legal counsel who is not a trustee. The president serves as an ex officio member. The Executive Committee is authorized to act on behalf of the Board between meetings. Its actions are recorded in the Minutes of the Committee, and promptly reported to the full Board.
F990_P06_S0B_L11b
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b
The Community Foundation's Form 990 is prepared and reviewed by the Chief Financial Officer. The Form is then fully examined by the President who suggests necessary revisions. The Form 990, with names redacted from Schedule B to honor the wishes of anonymous donors, is subsequently distributed to the Foundation's Executive Committee and Audit Committees for further review. It is concurrently reviewed by an independent CPA firm. The completed draft Form 990, with the redacted version of Schedule B, is distributed once again to the Executive Committee and Audit Committees for final approval; and distributed to all trustees prior to being filed with the IRS.
F990_P06_S0B_L12c
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c
The Community Foundation has a written conflict of interest policy which has been approved by the Board and requires all employees, officers, trustees and volunteers to complete and sign a conflict of interest disclosure form annually. All completed forms are reviewed by the President for accuracy and reasonableness. The President retains a summary of findings. All employees, officers, trustees and volunteers are required to disclose any additional conflicts which arise during the year and a written record of any such changes are added to the active file. Identified conflicts are noted at all meetings of the Board and its committees and in the Minutes. Any officer, trustee, staff member, or volunteer with a conflict leaves the room for the duration of the relevant discussion and recuses him/herself from any vote in which they have a conflict of interest in accordance with the conflict of interest policy.
F990_P06_S0B_L15
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15
The Community Foundation has a Board-approved Compensation Policy which guides its decisions. The Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees, which is comprised of independent Board members who do not have a conflict of interest, acts as a Personnel and Compensation Committee and sets annual compensation for the President, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. The Executive Committee performs an annual review of the President's performance against objectives and metrics agreed to at the beginning of the fiscal year and solicits feedback from all trustees. The President reviews the performance of all other staff. Committee minutes document the actions of the Executive Committee in all personnel and compensation matters; and the Committee's decisions are reported to the full Board. In setting compensation, the Executive Committee annually reviews comparability data from the Council on Foundations for community foundations of similar size; and compensation for similar positions in the local central New Jersey marketplace, the Form 990's of other nonprofit organizations and Form 990-PF for private foundations are also consulted for information.
F990_P06_S0C_L19
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19
The Community Foundation makes its conflict of interest policy, audited financial statements, and IRS Form 990 available to the public via its website and upon request. Its governing documents and Form 1023 are available to the public upon request.
