WITH GOD'S HELP FEED MY STARVING CHILDREN WILL STRIVE TO ELIMINATE STARVATION IN CHILDREN THROUGHOUT THE WORLD BY HELPING TO INSTILL COMPASSION IN PEOPLE TO HEAR AND RESPOND TO THE CRIES OF THOSE IN NEED. PART III, LINE 4A PROGRAM SERVICES: FEED MY STARVING CHILDREN IS A CHRISTIAN NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION COMMITTED TO FEEDING GOD'S STARVING CHILDREN HUNGRY IN BODY AND SPIRIT. DUE TO THE CURRENT STATE OF MALNUTRITION WORLDWIDE, ONE OUT OF FOUR CHILDREN IS "STUNTED"-THEY DO NOT RECEIVE ENOUGH ESSENTIAL NUTRIENTS TO GROW HEALTHY, AND AS A RESULT, BRAIN DEVELOPMENT COMES TO A HALT. WE BELIEVE THAT ALL PROGRESS STARTS WITH NUTRITION-IT ALLOWS CHILDREN TO DEVELOP TO THEIR FULL POTENTIAL. VOLUNTEERS OF ALL AGES JOIN US AND TURN HUNGER INTO HOPE WITH THEIR OWN TWO HANDS BY HAND-PACKING SPECIAL MEAL FORMULAS SCIENTIFICALLY DESIGNED TO MEET THE NEEDS OF SEVERELY MALNOURISHED CHILDREN, REVERSE THE EFFECTS OF MALNUTRITION AND PREVENT IT IN THE FUTURE. THE MEALS ARE THEN SHIPPED TO AN EXCEPTIONAL NETWORK OF MISSIONS AND HUMANITARIAN ORGANIZATIONS LOCATED IN NEARLY 70 COUNTRIES AROUND THE WORLD, AND ARE USED BY SCHOOLS, ORPHANAGES, CLINICS AND FEEDING PROGRAMS. WE CURRENTLY OPERATE OUT OF SEVEN PERMANENT SITES: COON RAPIDS, EAGAN AND CHANHASSEN, MINNESOTA; AURORA, LIBERTYVILLE AND SCHAUMBURG, ILLINOIS; AND MESA, ARIZONA. WE ALSO OFFER THE OPTION TO HOST A MOBILEPACK, WHICH GIVES CHURCHES, SCHOOLS, BUSINESSES AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS (LOCATED ANYWHERE IN THE CONTINENTAL UNITED STATES) THE CHANCE TO SPONSOR A PACKING EVENT WITH FMSC AND HELP RAISE AWARENESS IN THEIR OWN COMMUNITIES. THE IMPACT FMSC HAS THROUGH ITS VOLUNTEERS IS DYNAMIC-THE LATEST FISCAL YEAR ENDED FEBRUARY 2018, WITH 1,221,900 VOLUNTEERS PACKING 333 MILLION MEALS-OUR LARGEST YEAR YET! THE GOAL OF FMSC IS TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THOSE WHO ARE STARVING NOW, SO THEY CAN MEET THEIR OWN NEEDS IN THE FUTURE. WE HAVE RECEIVED A FOUR-STAR RATING FROM CHARITY NAVIGATOR FOR THIRTEEN CONSECUTIVE YEARS, AND 99.8% OF OUR MEALS HAVE SUCCESSFULLY REACHED THEIR INTENDED RECIPIENTS. PART III, LINE 4B MARTKETPLACE: THE ORGANIZATION ALSO SUPPORTS ECONOMIES WHERE IT DISTRIBUTES MEALS BY PURCHASING HANDMADE CRAFTS AND RESELLING THEM IN ITS MARKETPLACE, AVAILABLE AT ALL PACKING SITES, ONLINE, AND MOST MOBILE PACKING EVENTS. The goals of Marketplace are two-fold, first to promote self-sufficiency in the communities FMSC serves, which will in turn contribute to the goal of combating hunger, and second, to educate the Organization's volunteers about the people they are helping feed and provide a tangible connection to those individuals. PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11A PROCESS THE ORGANIZATION USES TO REVIEW FORM 990: A copy of Form 990 is internally reviewed by the CEO and the VP of Finance. It is then reviewed and approved by the Audit and IT Committee and Executive Committee of the Board of Directors (to whom the Board has delegated this authority). The approved 990 is sent to the Board of Directors to read and ask any questions they might have prior to filing the return with the IRS. After all questions are answered, the 990 is finalized. A final, signed copy of the 990 is provided to the Board of Directors upon filing. PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY/ENFORCEMENT: IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACTUAL OR POSSIBLE CONFLICTS OF INTEREST, AN INTERESTED PERSON (AS DEFINED IN THE POLICY) MUST DISCLOSE THE EXISTENCE OF HIS OR HER FINANCIAL INTEREST AND BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO DISCLOSE ALL MATERIAL FACTS RELATING TO HIS OR HER FINANCIAL INTEREST TO THE DIRECTORS OR MEMBERS OF COMMITTEES WITH BOARD-DELEGATED POWERS CONSIDERING THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION OR ARRANGEMENT. PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15 A & B PROCESS FOR DETERMINING COMPENSATION: Annually, the Sr. Compensation and Benefits Analyst reviews the compensation for the Executive Staff. Using information gathered from external sources, the Analyst determines what the market standard is in the 50% bracket of comparable positions. This information is given to the CEO. The employee is given a performance appraisal, completed by the CEO. Current level of pay, individual performance and market standards are weighed and a merit recommendation is awarded by the CEO. Compensation for Executive staff is given to the Executive Committee of the board for review. The Executive Committee of the Board reviews the analysis provided by the Sr. Compensation and Benefits Analyst for the CEO. New compensation amount for the CEO is recommended by the Executive Committee to the entire board and approved, disapproved, or new amount recommended. PART VI, SECTION C, LINE 19 HOW GOVERNING DOCUMENTS, COI POLICY, AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ARE PROVIDED TO THE PUBLIC: COPIES OF ALL INFORMATION ARE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ARE MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH GUIDESTAR AND CHARITY REVIEW COUNCIL, AS WELL AS ON THE ORGANIZATION'S WEBSITE.
