Form 990, Part I, Line 6 Bridgeport Rescue Mission is fortunate to have a large number of unpaid volunteers who perform many of the mission's key program services. The value of these services is not recognized under generally accepted accounting principles or in this Form 990. The use of volunteers for program services results in a significant cost savings for the Mission, but because that value is excluded, the Mission's program service expenses as reflected in the Form 990 are not a true measure or representation of the organization's operational efficiency. If the value of the volunteer services were recognized in the 990 and program expenses, the Mission's true operational efficiency would be much higher. Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 8b There are no committees with authority to act on behalf of the governing body. Therefore, this question was answered no in accordance with the instructions. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11 The Form 990 is prepared by an independent CPA firm. It is reviewed in detail first by the Executive Director and Director of Finance. The Form 990 is then presented to the Board of Directors for final approval before filing with the IRS. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c Board members and officers sign a conflict of interest statement annually. The signed statements are reviewed by the Executive Director. Should any potential conflicts of interest be disclosed, the board member or officer would be asked to refrain from participation in any decision with regard to matters affected by the relationship. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15a The Executive Director's compensation is reviewed by the Board of Directors via comparisons to third party market data. The review and approval is documented in the Board minutes. The Director of Operations' compensation is determined by the Executive Director. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request. Additionally, the organization's financial statements and public inspection copy of the Form 990 are available to view via the organization's website. Form 990, Part XI, line 9: Change in value of beneficial interest in perpetual trust -11,286. Form 990, Part XII, Line 2c The organization's Finance Committee assumes responsibility for oversight of the audit of its financial statements and selection of its independent accountant. This process has not changed since the prior year.
