Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Schedule D, Part IV, Line 2bIn August 2021, CSF entered into a one-year agreement with the New Hampshire Department of Education to administer the NH Education Freedom Account ("EFA") program. In March 2022 the contract was extended through September 2023. During FYE 2023, CSF received approximately $14.8 million from the State of New Hampshire to fund over 3,300 EFAs. CSF acts as an agent of the State of New Hampshire over the EFA accounts and approves qualified educational costs to be paid from the EFAs. As of August 31, 2023, there is an unspent balance of EFAs of $4,671,166 and a balance of $707,355 due back to the State of New Hampshire.
Schedule D, Part IXOther Assets Line 2 Operating Lease Right-To-Use-Assets - The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") implemented a new lease accounting standard that became effective for The Children's Scholarship Fund in the year ending August 31, 2023. This accounting standard was effectuated to improve transparency surrounding key information pertaining to an exempt organization's leasing arrangements (and to ensure that all organizations were recording the transactions uniformly on their balance sheets).
Schedule D, Part X, Line 2The Fund follows guidance that clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, including issues relating to financial statement recognition and measurement. This guidance provides that the tax effects from an uncertain tax position can only be recognized in the financial statements if the position is "more-likely-than-not" to be sustained if the position were to be challenged by a taxing authority. The assessment of the tax position is based solely on the technical merits of the position, without regard to the likelihood that the tax position may be challenged. The Fund is exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, though it is subject to tax on income unrelated to its exempt purpose, unless that income is otherwise excluded by the Code. The Fund has processes presently in place to ensure the maintenance of its tax-exempt status; to identify and report unrelated income; to determine its filing and tax obligations in jurisdictions for which there was nexus; and to identify and evaluate other matters that may be considered tax positions. The Fund has determined that there are no material uncertain tax positions that require recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.
Schedule D, Part XI, Line 4bThe net loss from fundraising events which is included on Form 990 Part VIII line 8c is not included in total revenue per the audited financial statements. The audited financial statements include it as event costs.
Schedule D, Part XII, Line 2dThe net loss from fundraising events which is included on Form 990 Part VIII line 8c is not included in total revenue per the audited financial statements. The audited financial statements include it as event costs.

Form And Line ReferenceSchedule I, Part I, Line 2FormAndLineReferenceDesc
ExplanationCSF makes matching grants to other scholarship organizations so they may also provide partial scholarship awards to children from low-income families. In fiscal year 2023, CSF provided more than $2.5 million in matching grants to 16 other scholarship organizations. With CSF's matching grants, these scholarship organizations provided $36.2 million in scholarships to nearly 18,800 children. CSF has grant agreements with each of these organizations which require that 1) the scholarships are awarded solely on the basis of financial need, 2) are intended for low-income families, 3) income eligibility must be verified annually, 4) the maximum award will not exceed 75% of tuition less other financial aid and 5) that continued enrollment will be verified at least twice each academic year. Prior to disbursing grants to these organizations CSF verifies that the required matching contributions have been received. In addition, during fiscal year 2023 CSF disbursed approximately $16.7 million in direct scholarship assistance on behalf of nearly 7,730 children from low-income families. The criteria for eligibility are residency and income, and students must be entering grades K-8 when they begin in the program. Families are asked to provide proof of income eligibility, and indicate enrollment at their chosen private school. Scholarship funds are disbursed to the schools twice a year, in November (50%) and March (50%). Parents and/or principals must verify that the student's good standing at the school, academically, financially, and otherwise, and certifying that the student is maintaining at least a 90% attendance rate. Although the scholarship payments are made to schools, they are awarded to parents. If a family is not satisfied with its chosen school, they may take the scholarship to another school. The program staff at CSF works daily with parents and schools to ensure program integrity, answer questions regarding scholarship amounts, parental contributions, enrollments, transfers, siblings, eligibility, participating schools, and other issues that regularly surface. CSF uses a customized database to track all applicants, participants, schools, scholarships, income eligibility, etc., and is able to generate accurate and up-to-date data on every aspect of the program.ExplanationTxt

Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11bThe Chief Financial Officer (CFO) prepares IRS Form 990 and all state regulatory filings. The CFO consults with outside professionals, as necessary, to properly complete these filings. Upon completion, the 990 is reviewed by the President and the organization's independent accounting firm. Following these reviews, a copy of the 990 is sent to each member of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. A meeting of the Audit Committee was held on December 1, 2023, at which time the committee reviewed and discussed Form 990 for the year ended August 31, 2023. The CFO, President & representatives from Grant Thornton were present at the meeting to respond to questions from committee members. A copy of the completed 990 was sent electronically to all board members prior to filing with the Internal Revenue Service.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12cThe Children's Scholarship Fund's conflict of interest policy prohibits any director, officer or key employee from using his or her position, or the knowledge gained there from, in such a manner that a conflict arises between the interest of the Children's Scholarship Fund or any of its affiliates and his or her personal interests. To implement this policy, directors, officers and key employees are required to make true and complete disclosure of the material facts relating to any personal interest he or she may have in any transaction before the Board or any of its Committees, prior to any vote on the transaction. Should a potential conflict of interest arise, the individual is required to recuse him or herself from discussions, deliberations or votes concerning the transaction. Annually each Director, officer and key employee is requested to complete an Independence and Conflict of Interest questionnaire.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15The compensation of the President & CEO, is approved by the Board of Directors. All Directors, except for the President, serve without compensation. The President & CEO recommends salary changes for all other positions during the annual budget process; which is approved by the Board of Directors. In the Fall of 2023 the organization engaged an independent professional services firm to compare the compensation of the President & CEO, the Chief Financial Officer, the Vice President of Strategic Planning & Development and the Executive Director of New Hampshire Programs to their counterparts in not-for-profit organizations similar to CSF. This report was provided to the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors of the Children's Scholarship Fund.
