Information about Schedule O (Form 990 or 990-EZ) and its instructions is at| Return Reference | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 2 | The following trustees are also employees and/or officers of the Archdiocese of Denver: Most Rev. Samuel J. Aquila, S.T.L., Very Rev. Randy M. Dollins,V.G., Keith Parsons and Kevin Kijewski. All individuals serve as trustees for Seeds of Hope without compensation from the Trust or the Archdiocese of Denver. Salary information for these individuals is unavailable. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 3 | Effective January 1, 2015, Seeds of Hope entered into an administrative and donor services agreement with The Catholic Alliance, formerly known as The Catholic Foundation Alliance, (the "Alliance"), a new entity managed by The Catholic Foundation of Northern Colorado, which is legally separate from the Archdiocese of Denver. The Alliance allows for the consolidated effort of resources and people to be brought together to more efficiently and strategically serve eight Catholic ministries, one of which is Seeds of Hope. For a base annual fee, the Alliance performs services for Seeds of Hope including fundraising, donor communications and management, event planning and management, donor and volunteer relations, and grant solicitation and grant issuance similar to what Seeds of Hope had historically done in these areas. Pursuant to the agreement, the Alliance administers and carries out special events benefiting Seeds of Hope and directly pays all event expenses at no additional cost to Seeds of Hope. Given the structure and mission of Seeds of Hope, the entire staff transitioned to the Alliance upon entering into the service agreement. As a result, beginning January 1, 2015, Seeds of Hope no longer has employees as the programs and services of Seeds of Hope are now carried out by the Alliance. The service fee paid to the Alliance for the year ended June 30, 2016 totaled $608,400. The fee has been allocated on a functional basis on Part IX, Statement of Functional Expenses, based on estimates of how the Alliance staff spent their time performing the services under the agreement. The estimated portion of the fee allocated to fundraising services totaled $179,318 and is reported on line 11e as "professional fundraising services". The portion of the fee incurred for direct special event expenses totaled $150,992 and is netted against special event revenue and reported on line 8b on Part VIII, Statement of Revenue. The remaining $278,090 of the fee is reported on line 11g and is allocated between program and management services. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7a | The Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Denver must approve the appointment of any Trustee. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7b | The Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Denver must approve the appointment of any Trustee. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11 | The Board of Trustees is provided a copy of the Form 990 for review and approval prior to filing with the IRS. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c | Transactions involving parties with whom a conflict of interest exists may only be undertaken if all of the following are observed (as applicable): -The potential conflict of interest is fully disclosed. -The person with the conflict of interest is excluded from the substantive approval of such transactions. -A competitive bid or comparable valuation exists and -Seeds of Hope determines that the transaction is in the best interest of the overall organization. Disclosure in writing, in the case of the staff, is made to the Executive Director, who brings the matter to the attention of the Board of Trustees. Disclosure involving a Board member is made to the Board Chair who brings these matters to the Board. Ultimately, the Board Chair determines if a conflict exists and, in the case of an existing conflict, whether the contemplated transaction may be authorized or recommended. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 | Seeds of Hope has no employees and the officers and directors are not compensated. Therefore, a process for determining compensation of the Executive Director, officers, or other top employees is not relevant. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 | The Organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request. |
| Form 990, Part IX, line 11g | Alliance service fee-See Part VI, Section A, line 3: Program service expenses 206,169. Management and general expenses 71,921. Fundraising expenses 0. Total expenses 278,090. |
| Form 990, Part XII, line 2c | This process has not changed from the prior year. |
