| EXPLANATORY NOTE CONCERNING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC | In March 2020, the World Health Organization officially declared COVID-19, a disease caused by the novel coronavirus, a pandemic. This caused many local and national governments, including New York State, to impose restrictions on business operations, travel and public gatherings. The outbreak has adversely impacted the level of economic activity around the world and disrupted normal business activity in every sector of the economy. As a result of the pandemic, in mid-March 2020 the Organization moved to virtual program services for the remainder of the fiscal year. The Organization also postponed its annual fundraising event, which was scheduled for April 2020, to September 2020 and held it virtually (refer to Note 5 for further details). In order to mitigate the impact of the virus, for fiscal year 2021, the Organization has primarily operated its programs remotely. The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve as of the date of this report. External factors, including the duration and intensity of the pandemic, the shape of the economic recovery and its impact on potential government funding, as well as timing and widespread adoption of vaccines, could have an impact on the Organizations future operating and programmatic results. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1 ORGANIZATION'S MISSION (CONTINUED) From early childhood, education, and career programs to community outreach and wellness initiatives, HCZ opens pathways to mobility and prosperity. HCZ'S UNIQUE APPROACH IS TO PROVIDE SUPPORTS FOR EACH STAGE OF A CHILD'S DEVELOPMENT AND ADDRESS ANY BARRIERs TO their ACADEMIC SUCCESS. OUR EARLY-CHILDHOOD PROGRAMS HELP BUILD A STRONG FOUNDATION FOR LATER LEARNING. OUR TWO K THROUGH 12 CHARTER SCHOOLS ARE STAFFED WITH DEDICATED, QUALITY TEACHERS AND SPECIALISTS TO ENSURE OUR STUDENTS STAY ON TRACK FOR COLLEGE SUCCESS. WE ALSO OFFER AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAMS FOR ELEMENTARY, MIDDLE, AND HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WHO LIVE IN THE ZONE AND ATTEND TRADITIONAL PUBLIC SCHOOLS - WORKING CLOSELY WITH THEM, THEIR TEACHERS, AND PARENTS TO MAKE SURE THEY GRADUATE ON TIME AND ARE READY FOR COLLEGE. WHETHER STUDENTS ATTEND LOCAL COLLEGES OR go OUT-OF-TOWN, OUR Center for Higher Education and Career Support (CHECS) HELPS THEM WITH EVERYTHING FROM TIME MANAGEMENT TO TUTORING TO securing PAID INTERNSHIPS, WHICH ARE SO IMPORTANT TO EARNING EXTRA INCOME AND GAINING INVALUABLE WORK EXPERIENCE. WE HAVE THE SAME EXPECTATIONS OF SUCCESS FOR THE CHILDREN WE SERVE FROM TRADITIONAL PUBLIC SCHOOLS AS WE DO FROM OUR CHARTER SCHOOLS. THOUGH OUR PROGRAMS WORK WITH THOUSANDS OF CHILDREN, WE MAKE SURE EACH CHILD GETS HIS OR HER SPECIFIC NEEDS MET AND IS FOCUSED ON GRADUATING FROM COLLEGE. CHILDREN FROM SIXTH GRADE AND UP ARE ASSIGNED AN ADVOCATE WHO CREATES AN ONGOING ASSESSMENT OF WHAT SERVICES ARE NECESSARY AND MAKES SURE THE STUDENT GETS THEM, WHETHER IT IS RELATED TO HEALTH CARE, A CHAOTIC HOME LIFE, OR AN ACADEMIC STUMBLING BLOCK. IN ADDITION TO OUR DIRECT WORK WITH CHILDREN, WE HAVE PROGRAMS AIMED AT STRENGTHENING FAMILIES AND THE VERY FABRIC OF THE COMMUNITY - TRANSFORMING THE NEIGHBORHOOD FROM ONE MIRED IN POVERTY TO ONE OF ECONOMIC STABILITY AND A POSITIVE CULTURE. SINCE WE ARE CONCERNED WITH THE ENTIRE CHILD, WE ALSO HAVE DEVELOPED PROGRAMS TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF OUR CHILDREN. BECAUSE OBESITY THREATENS THE HEALTH OF SO MANY OF OUR CHILDREN AND ADULTS, WE CREATED AN ORGANIZATION-WIDE PROGRAM CALLED HEALTHY HARLEM. WE CREATED A DATABASE OF THE HEIGHT, WEIGHT AND BODY MASS INDEX OF ALL PARTICIPANTS TO TRACK THEIR PROGRESS. THE PROGRAM OFFERS ONE HOUR A DAY OF EXERCISE AND ONE NUTRITION EDUCATION CLASS EACH WEEK TO THOUSANDS OF OUR STUDENTS. CHILDREN WITH THE MOST SEVERE OBESITY PROBLEMS RECEIVE MORE INDIVIDUALIZED ATTENTION. HEALTHY HARLEM ALSO WORKS WITH PARENTS, OFFERING EXERCISE CLASSES, HEALTHY COOKING CLASSES AND A SUBSIDIZED FARMERS MARKET. WE HAVE BECOME A NATIONAL MODEL FOR FIGHTING POVERTY AND EDUCATING AT-RISK YOUTH. HUNDREDS OF DELEGATIONS FROM AROUND THE WORLD HAVE VISITED US OR TAKEN WORKSHOPS TO LEARN ABOUT WHAT WE DO. PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA CREATED THE PROMISE NEIGHBORHOODS PROGRAM TO USE FEDERAL MATCHING GRANTS TO REPLICATE OUR COMPREHENSIVE MODEL IN OTHER POOR COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND WE HAVE PROVIDED ADVICE TO THESE COMMUNITIES. FORM 990, PART IV LINE 4 - LOBBYING DISCLOSURE HARLEM CHILDREN'S ZONE DOES NOT UNDERTAKE ANY LOBBYING ACTIVITIES. HCZ PRESIDENT GEOFFREY CANADA IS A VERY PROMINENT INDIVIDUAL IN THE COMMUNITY AND HE MAY UNDERTAKE ADVOCACY EFFORTS THAT HAVE ANCILLARY BENEFITS TO HARLEM CHILDREN'S ZONE. MR. CANADA'S ADVOCACY EFFORTS, TO THE EXTENT THERE ARE ANY, ARE UNDERTAKEN AT HIS OWN BEHEST AND ARE FUNDED FROM HIS OWN PERSONAL FINANCES; HARLEM CHILDREN'S ZONE DOES NOT SUBSIDIZE THOSE EFFORTS. FORM 990, PART VI: POLICIES LINE 11 - PROCESS USED TO REVIEW FORM 990 THE FORM 990 WAS PREPARED BY A NATIONALLY RENOWNED ACCOUNTING FIRM IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCE DEPARTMENT. A COPY OF THE DRAFT FORM 990 WAS CIRCULATED TO THE AUDIT COMMITTEE FOR DISCUSSION AND COMMENT. EACH AUDIT COMMITTEE MEMBER WAS PROVIDED AMPLE OPPORTUNITY TO COMMENT ON THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THE 990 PRIOR TO ITS FILING WITH THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE. THE AUDIT COMMITTEE WILL SUMMARIZE ITS FINDING ON THE FORM 990 TO THE FULL BOARD OF DIRECTORS. LINE 12 - ENFORCEMENT AND MONITORING OF CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY ALL EMPLOYEES ARE EXPECTED TO USE HONESTY, GOOD JUDGEMENT AND HIGH ETHICAL STANDARDS IN ALL PROFESSIONAL DEALINGS. ALL EMPLOYEES MUST AVOID ANY ACTIONS THAT COULD CREATE A CONFLICT OF INTEREST OR THE APPEARANCE OF SUCH A CONFLICT OR REFLECT UNFAVORABLY ON THEM OR ON HARLEM CHILDREN'S ZONE. AN EMPLOYEE MUST DISCLOSE IF SHE/HE OR AN IMMEDIATE FAMILY MEMBER HAS ANY POTENTIAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST SUCH AS A RELATIONSHIP TO A THIRD PARTY VENDOR WHO SEEKS OR HAS A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP WITH HARLEM CHILDREN'S ZONE. AN EMPLOYEE'S VIOLATION OF THIS POLICY, ESPECIALLY A FAILURE TO REPRESENT ACCURATELY HIS OR HER CONNECTION OR ACTION ON BEHALF OF HARLEM CHILDREN'S ZONE AND A THIRD PARTY WILL CONSTITUTE GROUNDS FOR DISCIPLINARY ACTION, UP TO AND INCLUDING TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. LINE 15 - PROCESS FOR DETERMINING COMPENSATION THE ORGANIZATION UNDERTAKES A THOROUGH PROCESS TO ENSURE THAT THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION IT PAYS TO ITS TOP MANAGEMENT OFFICIAL AND ALL OF ITS OFFICERS AND KEY EMPLOYEES IS REASONABLE GIVEN THE MARKET IN WHICH THE ORGANIZATION OPERATES. Harlem Children Zone recently commissioned a compensation survey in March of 2020 to ensure that the wages it pays its executives is commensurate with the market in which it operates. |
| Form 990, Part VI: disclosures | LINE 19 - AVAILABILITY OF DOCUMENTS TO THE PUBLIC THE ORGANIZATION MAKES ITS FORM 990 AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC BY RETAINING A COPY AT ITS PLACE OF BUSINESS. THE FORM 990 IS LIKEWISE PUBLISHED ON THE INTERNET AT WWW.GUIDESTAR.ORG. THE ORGANIZATION POSTS ITS AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND FORM 990 ON ITS WEBSITE, BUT ITS GOVERNING DOCUMENTS AND CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY ARE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST AND PROVIDED AT MANAGEMENT'S DISCRETION. |
| form 990, part Viii, line 7 | The Harlem Children's Zone invests in non-exchange traded alternative investments (as identified in Schedule D, Part VII). Since these investments are not traded on traditional investment markets, the organization relies on its investment brokers to identify its gains and losses during the fiscal year. Historically, the organization's investment brokers have reported all gains as unrealized gains on investments and not segregated any realized gains. Accordingly, Harlem Children's Zone is unable to identify realized gains for reporting on Form 990, Part VIII, Line 7. |
