Return Reference Explanation
PART I, LINE 2: THE FOUNDATION CONDUCTS A THOROUGH DUE DILIGENCE PROCESS IN REVIEWING AND MONITORING ALL GRANTS APPROVED AND AWARDED BY THE FOUNDATION'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS. STAFF REVIEWS ALL REQUESTS TO FIRST ENSURE THE APPLICANT ORGANIZATION IS ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE A GRANT FROM THE FOUNDATION UNDER THE IRS GUIDELINES FOR CHARITIES AND NONPROFITS. DURING THIS INITIAL SCREENING, THE APPLICANT'S FINANCIAL INFORMATION, GOVERNANCE AND PROGRAMS ARE REVIEWED, AND A DETERMINATION IS MADE IF THE PROPOSAL IS CONSISTENT WITH THE FOUNDATION'S INTEREST AREAS AND STRATEGIC PRIORITIES. A BOARD-APPOINTED PROGRAM COMMITTEE, COMPOSED OF BOARD MEMBERS AND OTHER COMMUNITY VOLUNTEERS, REVIEWS ELIGIBLE REQUESTS AND RECOMMENDS AWARDS BASED ON AVAILABLE FUNDS AFTER SELECTED IN-PERSON SITE VISITS AND A MORE THOROUGH REVIEW OF EACH ORGANIZATION'S ELIGIBILITY AND PROPOSED USE OF FUNDS. THESE GRANT RECOMMENDATIONS ARE THEN REVIEWED AND VOTED ON BY THE FULL BOARD. GRANTS RECOMMENDED BY DONOR-ADVISORS FROM THEIR FUNDS HELD AT THE FOUNDATION SIMILARLY RECEIVE THE SAME DUE DILIGENCE IN THE INITIAL SCREENING, BUT DO NOT GO TO THE PROGRAM COMMITTEE FOR REVIEW. THEY ARE, HOWEVER, REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY THE BOARD. IN MONITORING THE USE OF GRANT FUNDS, THE FOUNDATION REQUIRES PERIODIC WRITTEN OR ORAL REPORTS AND/OR A FINAL REPORT (INCLUDING A FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING OF HOW THE GRANT WAS SPENT) FROM ALL GRANTEES, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF DONOR ADVISED GRANTS UNDER $10,000. FOUNDATION STAFF ALSO MAINTAINS REGULAR COMMUNICATION WITH GRANT RECIPIENTS, WHO ARE ENCOURAGED TO ALERT THE FOUNDATION ABOUT ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES OR ISSUES DURING THE GRANT PERIOD.

Return Reference Explanation
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11 STAFF IS RESPONSIBLE FOR COMPLETING AND FILING THE FORM 990, WHICH IS REVIEWED BY MANAGEMENT STAFF AND THE CEO. PRIOR TO ITS FILING, A DRAFT IS E-MAILED TO ALL BOARD MEMBERS. THEIR COMMENTS, QUESTIONS AND CONCERNS ARE SOLICITED AND CONSIDERED PRIOR TO BEING COMPLETED AND SUBMITTED.
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C THE FOUNDATION IS COMMITTED TO THE HIGHEST ETHICAL STANDARDS IN ALL POLICIES, PROCEDURES, AND PROGRAMS. THE ABILITY OF THE FOUNDATION TO CARRY OUT ITS MISSION IS ENHANCED BY THE INVOLVEMENT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS, VOLUNTEER COMMITTEE MEMBERS, AND STAFF IN THE PHILANTHROPIC LIFE AND ECONOMIC AFFAIRS OF SANTA CRUZ COUNTY. GIVEN THE FOUNDATION SERVES THE ENTIRE COUNTY, IT IS TO BE EXPECTED THAT FROM TIME TO TIME BOARD MEMBERS, VOLUNTEER COMMUNITY MEMBERS OR STAFF MAY ALSO HAVE RELATIONS WITH EXISTING OR PROPOSED RECIPIENTS OF GRANTS, VENDORS OR SERVICE PROVIDERS. TO FOSTER PUBLIC CONFIDENCE IN ITS INTEGRITY AND TO REFLECT THE FOUNDATION'S INTENTION TO MAINTAIN THE HIGHEST ETHICAL STANDARDS BY AVOIDING ANY REAL OR PERCEIVED CONFLICTS OF INTEREST, THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS ADOPTED A CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY. THIS POLICY IS AVAILABLE FOR PUBLIC REVIEW ON OUR WEB SITE (WWW.CFSCC.ORG). A SUMMARY OF KEY ELEMENTS INCLUDE: ALL BOARD MEMBER, VOLUNTEER COMMITTEE MEMBERS, AND STAFF ARE ANNUALLY REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A LIST OF NONPROFIT AND PROFESSIONAL PHILANTHROPIC ORGANIZATIONS WITH WHICH THEY HAVE RELATIONSHIPS, AS WELL AS ANY RELATIONSHIPS OF IMMEDIATE FAMILY MEMBERS. THEY MUST DISCLOSE ANY MATERIAL OWNERSHIP OR INVESTMENT INTEREST WITH ANY ENTITY THAT HAS NEGOTIATED A TRANSACTION WITH THE FOUNDATION WITHIN THE PAST YEAR OR OF ANY TRANSACTIONS KNOWN TO BE CURRENTLY PENDING OR PROPOSED. THIS INFORMATION IS COLLECTED BY THE CEO AND REPORTED BACK TO THE BOARD. IN ALL SITUATIONS IN WHICH THERE IS A REAL OR PERCEIVED CONFLICT OF INTEREST, THOSE INDIVIDUALS MUST RECUSE THEMSELVES FROM DISCUSSION AND DECISION MAKING THAT INVOLVES THE PARTIES IN QUESTION. THIS INCLUDES THE REVIEW, DISCUSSION OR DECISION OF ANY AND ALL GRANT PROPOSALS AS WELL AS THE SELECTION OR CONTRACTING OF VENDORS OR SERVICE PROVIDERS. TO MONITOR THE NEED TO DO SO, A SCHEDULE OF BOARD MEMBER CONFLICTS IS INCLUDED IN EVERY BOARD PACKET FOR REFERENCE. EXAMPLES OF POTENTIAL CONFLICTS IN REGARDS TO THE FOUNDATION'S GRANTMAKING INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, SERVING AS A BOARD MEMBER, EMPLOYEE, OR CONSULTANT TO A CURRENT OR POTENTIAL GRANTEE; DOING BUSINESS WITH A CURRENT OR POTENTIAL GRANTEE; OR HAVING IMMEDIATE FAMILY MEMBERS SERVING AS A BOARD MEMBER OF APPLICANT ORGANIZATIONS. ANYONE WITH SUCH CONFLICTS MUST RECUSE THEMSELVES FROM ANY DISCUSSION OR DECISION INVOLVING THOSE PARTIES. IF IT IS UNCLEAR WHETHER A CONFLICT OF INTEREST EXISTS, THE CEO WILL MAKE THAT DETERMINATION IN REGARDS TO STAFF AND THE BOARD PRESIDENT IN REGARDS TO THE CEO. FOR BOARD MEMBER OR COMMITTEE MEMBER, THE BOARD PRESIDENT OR COMMITTEE CHAIR SHALL MAKE THAT DETERMINATION. WHEN A CONFLICT EXISTS THE COMMITTEE MEMBER SHALL EXCUSE THEMSELVES FROM THE MEETING WHILE THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE AFFILIATION ARE CONSIDERED. FOR ALL MATTERS BEFORE THE BOARD WHERE A REAL OR PERCEIVED CONFLICT OF INTEREST EXISTS, THE STEPS TAKEN UNDER THE FOUNDATION'S CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY SHALL BE NOTED AND RECORDED IN THE MEETING MINUTES.
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15 THE FOUNDATION IS COMMITTED TO ATTRACTING AND RETAINING A QUALIFIED, DIVERSE WORKFORCE THROUGH A COMPETITIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM WITHIN THE FOUNDATION'S LABOR MARKET. THE FOUNDATION PROVIDES A NON-DISCRIMINATORY MERIT-BASED COMPENSATION PROGRAM THAT IS CAREFUL TO BALANCE THESE OBJECTIVES WITH PRUDENT USE OF THE FINANCIAL RESOURCES WHICH HAVE BEEN ENTRUSTED TO THE FOUNDATION BY ITS DONORS. TO GUIDE THIS PROCESS, THE FOUNDATION HAS ADOPTED A COMPENSATION POLICY THAT ALSO ADDRESSES THE ANNUAL EVALUATION PROCESS FOR STAFF. THE FOUNDATION CONSIDERS BEST PRACTICES AS WELL AS THE FOLLOWING IN SETTING COMPENSATION FOR ITS KEY EMPLOYEES: INTERNAL EQUITY, WHICH STRIVES TO PROVIDE EQUIVALENT COMPENSATION FOR POSITIONS OF COMPARABLE SCOPE AND RESPONSIBILITY WITHIN THE FOUNDATION; AND EXTERNAL EQUITY, INCLUDING AN ANNUAL MARKET ANALYSIS OF COMPARABLE POSITIONS IN THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION INDUSTRY, MARKET TRENDS AND EVALUATION OF SALARY SURVEYS. ATTENTION IS ALSO GIVEN TO THE CONSUMER PRICE INDEX, BUDGETARY RESTRICTIONS AND FINANCIAL STATUS OF THE FOUNDATION. EMPLOYEES RECEIVE AN ANNUAL SALARY REVIEW BY THEIR SUPERVISORS (OR BY THE BOARD IN THE CASE OF THE CEO) AS PART OF THE PERFORMANCE RECOGNITION PLAN ANNUAL ASSESSMENT. THESE REVIEWS MAY OR MAY NOT RESULT IN A SALARY INCREASE. SALARY INCREASES ARE PROVIDED ON THE BASIS OF MERIT, SUBJECT TO BUDGETARY RESTRICTIONS AND AT THE SOLE DISCRETION OF THE FOUNDATION. ALSO, AT THE FOUNDATION'S SOLE DISCRETION, A LUMP-SUM MERIT AWARD MAY BE GRANTED TO AN EMPLOYEE WHO HAS REMAINED IN THEIR POSITION FOR MANY YEARS, IN LIEU OF AN INCREASE IN SALARY. FOR THE CEO, AN ANNUAL PERFORMANCE EVALUATION IS ONE OF THE MAJOR RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS. THE BOARD HAS ADOPTED EVALUATION PROCEDURES ESTABLISHED BY THE COUNCIL ON FOUNDATIONS AS PART OF ITS COMMUNITY FOUNDATIONS NATIONAL STANDARDS THAT PROVIDES FOR A CONSISTENT, FAIR, SUPPORTIVE AND WELL-DOCUMENTED PROCESS.
