Form And Line Reference	SCHEDULE F, PART I, LINE 2	FormAndLineReferenceDesc
Explanation	THE MUSEUM OF SCIENCE IS THE FLAGSHIP SITE FOR THE INTEL COMPUTER CLUBHOUSE NETWORK, WHICH INCLUDES SITES BOTH WITHIN AND OUTSIDE THE US. THE MUSEUM'S PRIMARY ROLE IS TO ADVISE AND TO COORDINATE COMMUNICATION AND COOPERATION BETWEEN SITES, BUT EACH SITE IS AN INDEPENDENT ENTITY. THE MUSEUM WILL OCCASIONALLY PROVIDE PASS-THROUGH FUNDING FROM INTEL TO HELP IN ESTABLISHMENT AND UPGRADE CLUBHOUSE SITES, AND ALSO PROVIDES TRAVEL SUPPORT FOR REPRESENTATIVES FROM SITES TO ATTEND THE NETWORK ANNUAL MEETING AND THE BIENNIAL TEEN SUMMIT, AN EVENT THAT INCLUDES OPPORTUNITIES FOR CLUBHOUSE YOUTH TO EXPRESS THEMSELVES USING GRAPHIC DESIGN, VIDEO ANIMATION, DIGITAL ART, MUSIC, RADIO, DOCUMENTARY FILM-MAKING, AND 3-D MODELING. THE MUSEUM'S OTHER MAJOR GRANT-MAKING ROLE IN THE NETWORK IS TO PASS THROUGH INTEL FUNDING FOR CLUBHOUSE TO COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIPS. SCHOLARSHIPS ARE AWARDED THROUGH AN APPLICATION PROCESS WHICH INCLUDES REVIEW BY STAFF OF THE CLUBHOUSE NETWORK, A REPRESENTATIVE FROM MIT, A REPRESENTATIVE FROM INTEL, AND A MUSEUM STAFF PERSON NOT DIRECTLY ASSOCIATED WITH THE CLUBHOUSE PROGRAM AND HAS ALSO INCLUDED MENTORS AND STAFF FROM AROUND THE NETWORK. SCHOLARSHIPS ARE PAID TO THE CLUBHOUSE SITE OR TO THE SCHOOL ATTENDED, NOT TO THE INDIVIDUAL STUDENT. FOR ALL TYPES OF FUNDING, RECIPIENT SITES ARE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE NARRATIVE AND FINANCIAL REPORTING TO THE MUSEUM TO ENSURE PROPER USE OF FUNDS. SITES THAT HAVE DEMONSTRATED AN INABILITY TO PERFORM ADEQUATE ADMINISTRATION OF GRANT FUNDS ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE FUNDING, ALTHOUGH THEY MAY CONTINUE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE NETWORK IN OTHER WAYS. ALL SITES ARE REQUIRED TO BE LEGALLY RECOGNIZED AS CHARITIES IN THEIR HOME JURISDICTIONS AS A CONDITION OF NETWORK MEMBERSHIP. SCHEDULE F, PART I, LINE 3 - GRANT-MAKING: GRANT-MAKING EXPENDITURES OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES ARE DIRECTLY ACCOUNTED FOR ON THE MUSEUM'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS PROGRAM EXPENDITURES NOT DISTINGUISHED IN ANY WAY FROM SIMILAR GRANTS MADE TO RECIPIENTS WITHIN THE UNITED STATES. STAFF PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND PROGRAM DISSEMINATION: AS THE MUSEUM EXPANDS ITS PROGRAMMING INTERNATIONALLY, STAFF ARE INCREASINGLY CALLED UPON TO TRAVEL TO MEETINGS AND CONFERENCES IN OTHER COUNTRIES, AND TO VISIT PEER INSTITUTIONS TO REVIEW PROGRAMS AND EXHIBITS WHICH MAY POTENTIALLY BE ADDED TO THE MUSEUM'S OWN OFFERINGS. STAFF ALSO INTRODUCE OTHER INSTITUTIONS TO PROGRAMS AND MATERIALS THE MUSEUM HAS DEVELOPED. COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH SUCH TRAVEL ARE ACCOUNTED FOR UNDER THE SAME ACCOUNTABLE PLAN AS THE MUSEUM'S DOMESTIC TRAVEL.	ExplanationTxt

Explanation	THE MUSEUM'S USE OF EXTERNAL FUNDRAISERS MAY, IN ANY GIVEN YEAR, CONSIST OF A) GENERAL FUNDRAISING COUNSEL, WHOSE WORK IS GENERALLY TOO INTEGRATED INTO THE MUSEUM'S OVERALL ADVANCEMENT FUNCTION TO HAVE "GROSS RECEIPTS" AMOUNTS SPECIFICALLY ASSIGNED; B) DIRECT-MAIL COMPANIES, WHOSE WORK RANGES FROM SIMPLE LARGE-SCALE MAILING OF MATERIALS DEVELOPED AND PRODUCED BY THE MUSEUM ITSELF TO A MORE DIRECT INVOLVEMENT IN THE DESIGN AND CREATION OF THE SOLICITATION MATERIALS; AND C) TELEMARKETERS. IN CASES SUCH AS DIRECT MAIL WHERE COSTS OTHER THAN THE FUNDRAISING SERVICES ARE INCURRED (SUCH AS POSTAGE,PRINTING, ETC.), THE COMPANY'S INVOICING IS IN SUFFICIENT DETAIL TO ALLOW THE MUSEUM TO TRACK AND CODE THOSE EXPENSES SEPARATELY FROM THE AMOUNTS REPORTED AS "PROFESSIONAL FUNDRAISING FEES" ON FORM 990, PART IX, LINE 11E. FOR THE COMPANIES LISTED IN SCHEDULE G, THOSE ADDITIONAL EXPENSES TOTALED $19,836. ALL AGREEMENTS WITH OUTSIDE FUNDRAISERS PROVIDE FOR INVOICING OF THE MUSEUM BASED ON SOLICITATIONS MADE, RATHER THAN WITHHOLDING OF AMOUNTS FROM FUNDS RAISED.

Explanation	CASH GRANTS: THE MUSEUM'S CASH AWARDS FALL INTO FOUR CATEGORIES. A) SUBAWARDS UNDER GRANTS - THESE ARE MONIES PASSED THROUGH TO INSTITUTIONS WHO HAVE APPLIED FOR GOVERNMENT AND PRIVATE GRANTS JOINTLY WITH THE MUSEUM. THE MUSEUM MONITORS THE SUBAWARDEES' USE OF FUNDS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REGULATIONS GOVERNING SUCH GRANTS AND THE ADEQUACY OF THIS MONITORING IS AUDITED ANNUALLY UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF OMB CIRCULAR A-133. B) PRIZES AND AWARDS - THE MUSEUM ADMINISTERS TWO ANNUAL AWARDS FOR THE RECOGNITION OF SCIENTIFIC PUBLICATION AND COMMUNICATION. AS THESE AWARDS ARE HONORARIA, MONITORING OF THEIR USE IS NOT APPLICABLE. C) STIPENDS - THESE ARE PAYMENTS TO PARTICIPANTS IN PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOPS OFFERED BY THE MUSEUM OR IN PILOT TESTING OF MUSEUM PRODUCTS AND PROGRAMS. AS THESE PAYMENTS ARE SIMPLE FLAT STIPENDS BASED ON NUMBER OF WORKSHOP DAYS, OR ON PILOT TEST MILESTONES, MONITORING OF THEIR USE IS NOT APPLICABLE. D) COMPUTER CLUBHOUSE NETWORK SUPPORT - THE MUSEUM MAKES PAYMENTS BOTH TO AND ON BEHALF OF MEMBER SITES IN THE INTEL COMPUTER CLUBHOUSE NETWORK, OF WHICH THE MUSEUM IS THE FLAGSHIP SITE. THE MUSEUM'S PRIMARY ROLE IS TO ADVISE AND TO COORDINATE COMMUNICATION AND COOPERATION BETWEEN SITES, BUT EACH SITE IS AN INDEPENDENT ENTITY. THE MUSEUM OCCASIONALLY PROVIDES PASS-THROUGH FUNDING FROM INTEL TO HELP ESTABLISH AND UPGRADE CLUBHOUSE SITES, AND ALSO PROVIDES TRAVEL SUPPORT FOR REPRESENTATIVES FROM SITES TO ATTEND THE NETWORK'S ANNUAL MEETING AND THE BIENNIAL TEEN SUMMIT. THE MUSEUM ALSO PASSES THROUGH INTEL FUNDING FOR "CLUBHOUSE TO COLLEGE" SCHOLARSHIPS. SCHOLARSHIPS ARE AWARDED THROUGH AN APPLICATION PROCESS WHICH INCLUDES REVIEW BY STAFF OF THE CLUBHOUSE NETWORK, A REPRESENTATIVE FROM MIT, A REPRESENTATIVE FROM INTEL, MUSEUM STAFF PEOPLE NOT DIRECTLY ASSOCIATED WITH THE CLUBHOUSE PROGRAM AND HAS ALSO INCLUDED MENTORS AND STAFF FROM AROUND THE NETWORK. FOR TRAVEL STIPENDS AND OTHER SUPPORT OF CLUBHOUSE SITES, THE MUSEUM REQUIRES BOTH NARRATIVE AND FINANCIAL REPORTING TO ENSURE FUNDS ARE USED APPROPRIATELY. FOR SCHOLARSHIPS PAID ON BEHALF OF INDIVIDUAL STUDENTS FROM CLUBHOUSE SITES, CHECKS ARE ISSUED DIRECTLY TO THE COLLEGE BEING ATTENDED RATHER THAN TO THE STUDENT TO ENSURE THE USE OF THE FUNDS IS FOR THE PURPOSE INTENDED. NON-CASH GRANTS: THE MUSEUM ALSO PROVIDES SUBSTANTIAL NON-CASH "SCHOLARSHIPS" FOR REDUCED-FEE OR NO-FEE PARTICIPATION IN MUSEUM PROGRAMS FOR WHICH A FEE IS USUALLY CHARGED. FOR THESE TRANSACTIONS, NO FUNDS ARE DISBURSED TO THE GRANTEE; THEY ARE SIMPLY CHARGED LESS, OR NOT AT ALL, FOR THE PROGRAM ATTENDED. ELIGIBILITY IS DETERMINED IN A NUMBER OF WAYS, DEPENDING ON THE NATURE OF THE GRANTEE. SCHOOLS ARE EVALUATED BASED ON LOCATION IN UNDER-SERVED NEIGHBORHOODS OR BY PERCENTAGE OF FREE/REDUCED LUNCH PROGRAM STUDENTS. COMMUNITY GROUPS ARE EVALUATED ON THE BASIS OF CHARITABLE STATUS. INDIVIDUAL GRANTEES ARE EVALUATED ON THE BASIS OF INCOME OR RESIDENCE IN UNDER-SERVED AREAS. AS THE OPERATION OF THESE NON-CASH AWARDS IS ENTIRELY INTERNAL TO THE MUSEUM, MONITORING THE USE OF THE FUNDS IS ALSO ENTIRELY INTERNAL AND ACCOMLISHED THROUGH THE MUSEUM'S OWN ACCOUNTING SYSTEM.
