| Mission | Software Freedom Conservancy (SFC) promotes, improves, develops, facilitates & defends Free & Open Source Software (FOSS) & the right to software repair. SFC advocates for the public's software rights & freedoms. SFC provides a home & infrastructure to FOSS initiatives. SFC helps volunteers focus on improving FOSS for the public. Projects include: creation of FOSS for general public, copyleft licensing advocacy, & internships for contributors subject to systemic bias who are underrepresented in FOSS. | MissionDesc |

| Desc | FOSS development, documentation, infrastructure, sustainability, & project support: During the tax year, SFC engaged 23 different software developers as independent contractors to improve the software in its FreeDV, Godot, Inkscape, Microblocks, phpMyAdmin, Reproducible Builds, and Selenium projects, as well as improving FOSS for SFC's own accounting infrastructure. All software source code was released freely to the public under licenses that encourage the public to use, share, modify, and reinstall it. These contractors also coordinated volunteer software developers to contribute further to the software projects. SFC staff also assisted volunteers in our projects on a daily basis with administration, coordination, legal and infrastructural tasks and costs (as listed at https://sfconservancy.org/members/services/ ). SFC made a grant to a Dutch non-profit organization, Stichting Godot, that supports the Godot Project, a FOSS game engine as well as a grant to the Python Software Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization that promotes FOSS Python infrastructure. Finally, SFC regularly mentors leadership of projects both inside and outside our organization to improve their non-profit management skills. | Desc |

| Desc | Outreachy and The Institute For Computing Research (ICR): In the tax year, we funded 123 interns via Outreachy - an initiative that encourages participation in FOSS for those who are subject to systemic bias and impacted by underrepresentation in the technical industry where they live. Outreachy interns improve FOSS and its documentation, and increase the diversity of the FOSS community while also learning valuable skills. ICR mentors and trains students in high school to do rigorous scientific research using FOSS. During this tax year, ICR had 29 internships. Both internship programs are paid programs which enable those from less privileged backgrounds to participate. | Desc |

| Desc | License Compliance & Enforcement: Some FOSS is available under "copyleft" licenses, such as the General Public License (GPL). These licenses allow everyone to freely share, copy, modify, and (re)install modified versions of software. SFC identifies situations where distributors fail to meet the copyleft requirements & requires them to provide the same rights to all those who receive the software distribution. Through this process, SFC ensures that the public has equal rights to use, improve, and study the software & to experiment with their own modifications so that the rights of consumers to repair the software on their devices is restored. When absolutely necessary, SFC seeks remedy in the courts. During the tax year, SFC continued ongoing litigation against a maker of Linux-based televisions in California state court in which SFC seeks the complete, corresponding source for the copylefted components in the televisions to engage in SFC's right to software repair. During the tax year, SFC also provided a grant to an individual to undertake a legal action in Germany where he successfully sought the complete, corresponding source for the LGPL'd components on the router he purchased. | Desc |

| Desc | Facilitating and Participating in FOSS conferences: During the tax year, SFC planned, organized and/or ran three conferences, and prepared for one other to take place in the following year. Additionally, SFC coordinated and funded many other smaller "hackfest" events for its projects. Furthermore, SFC funded travel expenses for staff's and volunteers' attendance at more than 14 different third-party software conferences. These events allow volunteer FOSS contributors and SFC staff to (a) speak about their work to the public, (b) teach the public how to use and improve their software, (c) generally promote the use, adoption and improvement of FOSS, and (d) explain and explore the policy issues surrounding software freedom and software rights. Most FOSS conferences include opportunities for software developers to meet and rapidly work closely together to make improvements to the software and release those improvements immediately to the public. Finally, SFC staff also assisted in organizing the Legal & Policy DevRoom at FOSDEM, the largest annual FOSS conference in Europe. | Desc |

| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b | The Directors are sent the audit report the same business day that the auditors release it. The Finance Subcommittee then meets with the auditors to review the audit report as soon as possible. The Finance Subcommittee immediately files a report of that meeting by email to the full Board. Before SFC staff files the 990, a final draft is submitted to the Directors. The Directors review the 990 at that time, and can raise any urgent issues immediately with each other and staff by email or telephone. Formal approval of the 990 and audit report occurs at the next regular meeting of the Directors. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c | The Board of Directors formally adopted and consented to the Organization's conflict of interest, whistleblower, and document retention policy on 16 March 2012. The policies are available for public inspection and comment. The Organization's policy is to remind the Board annually that the conflict of interest policy is in effect and any written conflicts disclosures are collected annually by a Director and/or staff member. Volunteers who help the Organization select contractors are required to adhere to the conflict of interest policy. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15 | All full-time employees (including any key employees or full-time compensated Officers are equally eligible for the same benefits package, which includes paid-time-off, 403(b) (including matching funds), medical, vision and dental benefits package. That benefits package, and changes thereto, are discussed and approved by the Board of Directors. Any employee serving on the Board of Directors or present at the meeting recuse themselves from that vote and the Board considers benefits package changes only in executive session without any employees present. Karen Sandler, the current President and Executive Director, negotiated her compensation package with outside Director and (at the time) Board Chairperson, Mark Galassi, when hired. That compensation package was then discussed and approved by the outside Directors. Changes to Sandler's compensation policy are made only with executive-session discussion by outside Directors. Sandler's salary increase in the 2017 tax year was again negotiated with Galassi and discussed in executive session by outside Directors. Sandler receives now and has always received the same benefits package as all other employees (described above), and receives COLAs using the same formula as other employees. Bradley M. Kuhn, Policy Fellow, is also an officer and director. His original compensation package (in 2010) was negotiated with Galassi and approved in executive session by the board, using data from Form 990s of similar organizations and other salary research data. Kuhn receives COLAs using using the same formula as other staff, since that time. Kuhn also receives the same benefits package (described above) as all other employees. |
