| Top Management's Compensation | Form 990, Schedule J, Part I, Line 3 Mather Foundation's top management's compensation is established by Mather LifeWays, as the compensation is paid by Mather LifeWays (a related organization). Mather LifeWays follows procedures to establish the "rebuttable" presumption of reasonableness described in the Income Tax Regulations in determining executive compensation. Compensation is reviewed annually by the Board's Compensation Committee, which consists of independent directors who obtain and rely on appropriate data as to comparability. Objective evidence of reasonableness and comparability is obtained from information provided by an independent, third party compensation consultant. Determination of executive compensation involves benchmarking with comparative market compensation data to ensure that compensation is fair, equitable, and within the standards of compensation utilized within the industry. Compensation decisions are documented and reviewed with the full Board. |
| Supplemental Nonqualified Retirement Plan | Form 990, Schedule J, Part I, Line 4B Mary G. Leary and Carol Sussenbach are participants in Mather LifeWays' 457(f) plan. A distribution of $10,150 was paid out in 2015 to Carol Sussenbach. |
