Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 8bThe organization does not have committees with authority to act on behalf of the governing body.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11Line 11a explanation - Completed 990 will be emailed to all Board members for review, then discussed at the upcoming board meeting.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15aCompensation Philosophy for Lighthouse Family Retreat The Lighthouse Family Retreat Board of Directors approves all compensation decisions for employees of the organization. In doing so we follow several principles that guide our decisions: The Board carefully monitors all significant expenses to ensure we use revenues in the best way to achieve our mission of serving families. The Board provides a total compensation package that attracts, retains and motivates talented employees committed to our mission. The Board independently makes all decisions regarding the hiring and compensation of the President and other senior officers. The Board approves compensation arrangements of all employees, consultants and contractors. The Board may consider proposals from the Executive Director that impact staff below the Executive Director level. In our total compensation package, Lighthouse may provide various standard elements such as base salary, performance bonuses, expense allowances (car or gas, housing, telephone), or benefits allowances. As we balance these elements, we target the total value of the package to be conservative, yet competitive with other organizations with which we compete for talent. To determine the appropriate competitive level, the Board reviews practices of like organizations in the non-profit sector. We consider information in the local geographic markets where our employees reside, from sources such as recruiters, church officers and web-based surveys and publications. We also consider the competitive level that best fits the experience and leadership potential of a candidate or incumbent, in line with how we plan to grow the ministry in the future. Our Board and management team together strive to make the wisest investment with every dollar we spend; and to create an environment for our employees where they feel they are rewarded fairly, and empowered to give their all toward our mission of serving families and kids battling childhood cancer.
