| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b | The Form 990 was circulated to all directors via electronic communication (Slack) for review before filing |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c | Yes. At the annual board meeting, all members confirmed their adherence to the conflict of interest policy, and proper recusal procedures were followed when setting executive compensation. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15 | The compensation of the Executive Director and Officer was determined through a formal review and approval process conducted by independent board members. The process included consideration of market comparability data, with a board member noting that the proposed rate was fair within the market and aligned with organizational performance goals. For the Executive Director (Nuño Sempere), the board followed the organization's conflict of interest policy by requiring the Executive Director to recuse himself from all deliberations and voting on his own compensation. The remaining board members deliberated independently and voted to approve the compensation rate. For the Officer (Ratan Rai Sur), the board similarly reviewed and confirmed the existing compensation level. The Officer offered to recuse himself from the discussion consistent with the same process. Deliberations and decisions were documented in board meeting minutes. |
| 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 written request. |
| Form 990, Part IX, Line 11g | Line 11g includes payments to independent contractors for services including foresight team coordination (Nuño Sempere, Executive Director, compensated as a contractor due to non-US residency), emergency response services (Ratan Rai Sur, Officer), video production and editing, graphic design, branding and website design, podcast editing, social media consulting, and AI narration services. The organization's Executive Director, Nuño Sempere, is compensated as an independent contractor rather than an employee due to his residence and operation outside the United States. Total compensation paid to Nuño Sempere during 2025 was $86,647, reported as other compensation in Part VII, column F. His compensation was reviewed and approved by independent board members. The organization's Officer, Ratan Rai Sur, was compensated as an independent contractor from January through May 2025 ($17,500) while the organization's payroll infrastructure was being established. Beginning June 2025, Ratan Rai Sur transitioned to employee status and received W-2 compensation for the remainder of the year ($46,667), reported in Part IX, Line 5. |
