Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11bTHE FOUNDATION EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE REVIEWS AND APPROVAL FORM 990 PRIOR TO FILING. ALL BOARD MEMBERS OF THE FOUNDATION CAN RECEIVE A COPY OF THE FORM 990 UPON REQUEST.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cTHE GOVERNING BOARD MEMBERS AGREE TO THE WRITTEN CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY WHEN THEY ASSUME THE POSITION OF DIRECTOR AND UPDATE THEIR AGREEMENT ANNUALLY. THE POLICY STATES THAT A DIRECTOR SHALL INFORM THE BOARD OF ANY DIRECT OR INDIRECT CONFLICT OF INTEREST FOR EACH TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THE BOARD. THIS INCLUDES, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, FINANCIAL INTEREST AND SERVING ON OTHER BOARDS. EACH DIRECTOR AND OFFICER SIGNS AN ANNUAL STATEMENT AFFIRMING THIS COMPLIANCE. THE FOUNDATION CONDUCTS PERIODIC REVIEWS TO MONITOR COMPLIANCE INCLUDING THE REASONABLENESS OF EXPENDITURES AND THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURES SPECIFIED IN THE BY-LAWS. EVERY PROGRAM SUPPORTED BY THE FOUNDATION PROVIDES A REPORT ON THE USE OF FUNDS ADMINISTERED THROUGH THE FOUNDATION.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19THE FORM 990 IS PROVIDED, UPON REQUEST, TO PROSPECTIVE CONTRIBUTORS AND GRANTORS. THE FORM 990 IS ALSO AVAILABLE ON THE GUIDESTAR WEBSITE. THE FOUNDATION'S LIST OF OFFICERS IS PUBLISHED ON ITS WEBSITE AND THE FOUNDATION'S ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION DESCRIBING ITS PURPOSE,THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY AND THE TAX EXEMPTION LETTER FROM THE IRS ARE ALSO PROVIDED, UPON REQUEST, TO PROSPECTIVE CONTRIBUTORS.
Form 990, Page11, Part XAmended Form 990 YE 06 30 2025 In March of 2026 it was determined that certain amounts recognized as gifts of Beneficial Interests (held by an outside foundation) received in 06 30 2024 and 06 30 2025 had been mischaracterized by NC Arts Foundation and should only have been recognized as the funds were received by the NC Arts Foundation from the outside foundation in future periods rather than during the years ended 06 30 2024 and 2025. Form 990 for 06 30 2024 has been amended and accordingly certain balance sheet beginning balances must be adjusted for the year ended 06 30 2025. For the 06 30 2024 ending balance sheet accounts the asset for the beneficial interest have been removed from the balance sheet reducing Part X, line 15 Other assets Column A by $1,241,990 from $1,241,990 to $-0- and the total assets figure reduced accordingly as was the Line 28 Net assets with donor restrictions. For the 06 30 2025 ending balance sheet accounts the asset for the beneficial interest have been removed from the balance sheet reducing Part X, line 15 Other assets Column B by $2,470,308 from $2,470,308 to $-0- and the total assets figure reduced accordingly as was the Line 28 Net assets with donor restrictions.
Form 990 Part VIIIAmended Form 990 YE 06 30 2025 In March of 2026 it was determined that certain amounts recognized as gifts of Beneficial Interests (held by an outside foundation) had been mischaracterized by NC Arts Foundation and should only have been recognized as the funds were received by the NC Arts Foundation from the outside foundation in future periods rather than during the year ended 06 30 2025. No distributions were received by the NC Arts Foundation from these funds during the year ended June 30,2025. These adjustments resulted in a decrease in Part VIII, line 1f, Column A of $500,000 "All other contributions" changing the balance from $2,215,134 to $1,715,134. Other related accounts adjusted included Part VIII, line 3, Columns A and D Investment income decrease of $31,555 from $85,066 to $53,511 Part VIII, Line 7 a, c, d, Columns A and D Gross Sale of Assets decreased by $53,298 from $53,298 to $-0-. Part IX, Line 11f, Columns A and B investment management fees were decreased by $7,864 from $7,864 to $-0-. And Part XI Line 5 unrealized gains was decreased by $151,304 from $151,304 to $-0-.
Form 990 Sch A Part IIAmended Form 990 YE 06 30 2025 Schedule A (Form 990) as amended has been adjusted to reflect the previously discussed recharacterization of the funds previously recognized as Beneficial Interest Gifts. The lowering of the recognized gift by $500,000 resulted in an equal reduction in the Schedule A Part II, section A Line 5, column e. The reducion in the Line 5, column e amount in turn led to a reduction of line 5, column f ithat resulted in an increased the public support percentage reflected on section c, line 14. The resulting amended percentage increased from 38.02% to 49.06% meeting the public support test.
