Explanation	THESE GRANTS ARE MADE AS AWARDS BY GREEN AMERICA'S PEOPLE & PLANET PROGRAM FOR LOCALLY BASED ORGANIZATIONS EXEMPLIFYING OUTSTANDING SUSTAINABILITY PRACTICES. TO PARTICIPATE, AWARD APPLICANTS MUST DEMONSTRATE THAT THEY (1) ARE SMALL, LOCALLY-BASED BUSINESSES OR NON-PROFITS, AND (2) MEET PROGRAM CRITERIA FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE AND ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY PRACTICES. FROM A QUALIFIED FIELD OF APPLICANTS, AN INDEPENDENT PANEL OF JUDGES SELECTS THE FINALISTS FOR THE AWARDS AND THE PUBLIC MAKES THE FINAL SELECTION FOR THE AWARDS. ORGANIZATIONS THAT WIN THE AWARDS, GRANTS OF $5,000, MAY USE THEM AS THEY CHOOSE. PROCEDURES TO MONITOR AND REPORT ON THE USE OF THE FUNDS DO NOT EXIST BECAUSE THE AWARDS GIVEN ARE RECOGNITION FOR OUTSTANDING SUSTAINABILITY PRACTICES AND ARE NOT REQUIRED TO BE USED FOR A SPECIFIC PURPOSE.

FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15A	SALARY REVIEW PROCESS: AN ANNUAL SALARY REVIEW OCCURS FOR ALL ELIGIBLE REGULAR STAFF AT THE COMPLETION OF THE ANNUAL OPERATING PLAN PROCESS.

THE PROCESS BEGINS EARLIER IN THE YEAR WITH THE ANNUAL ASSESSMENT LED BY THE FINANCE TEAM OF GREEN AMERICA'S CURRENT FINANCIAL SITUATION AND A DETERMINATION OF WHAT FUNDS ARE AVAILABLE FOR SALARY INCREASES IN THE COMING YEAR.
