DescSupporting families with parenting content via text - ParentsTogether uses SMS-based programs to share helpful parenting content in an easily digestible way with families. In 2015, our primary focus was a program called Q4KIDZ - through which we texted 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. The primary location of our work in 2015 was in our pilot state of North Carolina; parents from other states around the US also signed up to receive our regular parenting content. ParentsTogether is committed to serving diverse families, especially low-income parents and children.Desc

DescEngaging parents of children ages zero to three to explore programming to support their families - To expand on our work serving children primarily ages 4 to 10 through Q4KIDZ, we undertook a process to better understand the needs of parents of infants and toddlers. We conducted in-person interviews and online surveys of parents around the country to understand their aspirations and pain points as parents. We had a special focus on understanding parents' needs around affordable, high-quality child care. Through this process, we began to identify new program ideas for parents of young children.Desc

Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Part V, Lines 2a & b, Part VII, Part IX Compensation & Benefits Reporting:The Foundation does not have any direct employees. The Foundation reimburses staffing costs to an unrelated organization based upon actual payroll costs. The unrelated paying organization files all required federal employment returns. The number of forms reported on the Foundation's 990 represent the numbers of forms it would have filed if employing these individuals 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 4The Foundation's bylaws were amended during the year to (1) increase the number of members of the Board from three to six, (2) name the Executive Director an officer of the organization, and (3) to outline the responsibilities of officers.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 8bThere are currently no committees with authority to act on behalf of the Board.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11The Director of Finance works with the external preparer to complete the 990. The Executive Director reviews the submission, and he then submits it to the Board Treasurer for final approval. A complete copy of the form is then provided to the full board prior to filing the 990 with the IRS.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cOn an annual basis, board members sign a document acknowledging that they received the conflict of interest policy and agree to comply with all of its terms.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15The Foundation used the same process to determine compensation for Executive Director, Justin Ruben, who serves on the board and was compensated through the reimbursement arrangement described above, and Bethany Robertson, a board member who acted as an independent contractor in 2015. 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 19The Foundation makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request.
