In 2017, our primary focus was a program called Q4KIDZ, through which we sent free, creative questions to parents. These daily questions helped parents to connect with their children, to reinforce social-emotional growth, and to spark critical thinking. In addition to creative questions, ParentsTogether also shared resources about issues of importance to families, such as food insecurity and family leave. And we encouraged parents bring kids to vote and role-model engagement in our democracy. ParentsTogether is committed to serving diverse families, especially low-income parents and children. 328513 Engaging parents of children ages zero to three to explore programming to support their families - To expand on our work to parents of younger children, we launched a new mobile messaging service: Simple Parenting. We message parents of infants and toddlers with short, helpful, age-targeted interactive stories that support positive family outcomes. 497598 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 X 6 0 1 5 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 6 4 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 DC X Bonnie Chin Washburn 2022384843 1875 Connecticut Ave NW Suite 650 Washington DC 20009 Bethany Robertson - Board President, Co-Founder & Co-Director 35.24 X X 107447 0 6777 Dana Dudley Board Treasurer 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Diane Henry Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Justin Ruben - Board Member Co-Founder & Co-Director 30.46 X X 110549 0 12224 Diane Ty Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Eva Ruiz Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 217996 0 19001 2 0 0 0 Upland IX dba Mobile Commons 45 Main Street Ste 520 Brooklyn NY 11201 Text and mobile messaging platform 182276 1 650250 650250 302 302 Trademark income 900099 5000 5000 Advertising income 900004 1068 1068 6068 656620 0 1068 5302 236996 185335 45575 6086 152137 118973 29257 3907 1116 873 214 29 14956 11696 2876 384 33277 26023 6400 854 985 985 27820 27820 54483 52420 2063 1158 1158 468 468 92964 92590 374 4778 4778 5858 5657 201 1717 1717 Miscellaneous 4301 2405 1832 64 633014 497598 124092 11324 25000 25000 411907 525331 283561 200369 1563 10874 722031 761574 55424 40255 22287 53393 77711 93648 X 109514 43216 534806 624710 644320 667926 722031 761574 23606 0 X 1 X 0 1 0 X 506462 936845 650250 2093557 506462 936845 650250 2093557 1082743 1010814 32 253 6370 6655 2100212 0.48130 0.48420 X 631705 631705 119756 29939 0 0 37538 117633 119756 274927 412391 9385 29408 29939 68732 103098 0 Advances received from affiliate 53393 53393 X Part X, Line 2: Management has evaluated ParentsTogether Foundation's tax positions and concluded that the financial statements do not include any uncertain tax positions. Form 990, Part V, Lines 2a & b, Part VII, Part IX Compensation & Benefits: The Foundation reimburses certain staffing costs to an unrelated organization based upon actual payroll costs. The unrelated paying organization files all required federal employment returns for those employees. The number of forms reported on the Foundation's 990 represent the numbers of forms it would have filed if employing these individuals directly in addition to the employment forms that it has filed directly. Similarly, all reimbursed payroll costs are reported for applicable individuals in Part VII, Section A and Part IX, lines 5-10. Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 4 The organization's bylaws were amended to create and empower the position of Co-Directors to replace Executive Director. Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 8b There are currently no committees with authority to act on behalf of the Board. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b The Director of Finance and Operations works with our external preparer to complete the 990.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 The Foundation used the same process to determine compensation for Co-Director & Co-Founder, Justin Ruben, who serves on the board and was compensated through the reimbursement arrangement described above, and Bethany Robertson, Co-Director & Co-Founder and President of the Board. 1) Staff prepared a Compensation Comparables memo for the Board of Directors which legal counsel reviewed and approved; this memo included analysis of compensation for similar positions in the individual's geographic area as well as relative compensation at peer organizations; 2) A Board Resolution was prepared for each individual's compensation, detailing the total compensation; 3) The Board of Directors (excluding the compensated director) voted on each individual's compensation package after reviewing the Compensation Comparables memo; 4) These documents were all filed in our corporate records. 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.
