Families often must travel from out of state to obtain life-saving medical services. They incur duplicate living expenses while they are away from their home and often must leave their job due to extended periods of time they must spend in Omaha. The Lane Thomas Foundation assists the families with expenses at home (mortgage/rent, auto payment, auto insurance, cell phone, utilities) while the child is in the hospital during their transplant journey. 6427 The Lane Thomas Foundation works to improve public awareness and understanding for increased pediatric organ donation to ultimately save children's lives. The Foundation provided information and education at events and provides information regarding the need for pediatric organ donations on its website and social pages. 123744 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 7 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 8 8 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 X Brandi Miller 4023124937 21501 Walnut St Elkhorn NE 68022 X Matthew Graves Chairman 40.00 X X 0 0 0 Melissa Graves Vice Chairman 20.00 X X 0 0 0 Diane Compardo Treasurer (as of Jan 2024) 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Mark Conrad Treasurer (until Jan 2024) 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Dr Jeffrey Gold Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Dr Joann Schaefer Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Patrick Gottsch Board Member (until May 2024) 1.00 X 0 0 0 Julie Phillips Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Greg Oswald Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Angie Gottsch Board Member (as of Oct 2024) 1.00 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 149978 149978 258764 258764 408742 0 0 258764 116057 116057 8154 1261 6497 396 624 624 4749 4749 3230 3230 1807 185 1622 502 213 289 3158 2702 456 8031 6426 802 803 2185 2185 Event Fees 1200 1200 149697 123744 21187 4766 128198 176310 58400 24400 3105 2557 800 622 8211 178 5766157 6462733 5964071 6666178 5126 10360 5126 10360 X 5958945 6655818 5958945 6655818 5964071 6666178 259045 437828 0 X 0 0 0 X 129104 606694 178760 210387 149978 1274923 129104 606694 178760 210387 149978 1274923 28162 1246761 104831 167373 115779 166783 258764 813530 2088453 0.59700 0.67380 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 800 622 178 178 1 Family Support 22 116057 Part I, Line 2: The Foundation manages grants and works with each family on their specific needs. The grants are not given directly to the families, but instead the Foundation pays essential non-medical living expenses for the families directly via bill pay. The goal of family support is to relieve financial burdens from the family, so they can focus on their child. Financial support provided by the Foundation focuses on back home expenses like mortgage/rent, utilites, auto-insurance, auto-payment and cellphone because often times the parent or parents need to leave their job to be with their child. Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 2 Matthew Graves and Melissa Graves have a family relationship. Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 8b There are no committees with authority to act on behalf of the governing body. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b Upon completion and before filing Form 990 with the IRS, the Foundation will provide an electronic copy of the final Form 990 to the board of directors. Any questions that arise as a result of their review will be discussed with the tax preparer. The Form 990 will not be considered complete until all review questions are resolved. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c Each director, principal officer and member of a committee with governing board delegated powers shall sign a conflict of interest statement. All conflicts of interest are reviewed by the governing board and all committees with board delegated powers. The organization also conducts periodic reviews to ensure compliance. If it is determined that a conflict of interest exists, the interested person may make a presentation of the transaction or arrangement, but recuses himself/herself during the discussion and vote on the transaction or arrangement. Alternative transactions or arrangements will be investigated by disinterested parties on the governing board or committee. If a more advantageous arrangement cannot be found, the disinterested remaining directors will vote on whether to enter into the transaction. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 The Foundation has procedures for determining compensation of officers. However, these procedures were not used during this fiscal year because no officers were compensated. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 The Foundation makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request.
