| Explanation | When disbursing a donation/award, WEF provides a letter stating the nature of funding and stipulations as to the use of funds which are to be followed by the awardee. WEF stays in contact with the award recipient to ensure that the funds are used for the intended purposes. Once a scholarship recipient has been named, WEF verifies with the school that the student is enrolled for the fall semester, then again verifies the enrollment prior to sending the check to the school. If the student fails to attend, the refund of tuition (scholarship) paid by WEF is refunded to WEF. A new recipient is chosen each year, thus this process has to be repeated each year. The scholarship is paid directly to the school to cover tuition costs. If scholarship exceeds tuition costs, the student has option to receive the remaining scholarship funds as a taxable distribution. | ExplanationTxt |

The scope of duties included: provide timely, accurate financial information, provide regular progress reports, lead staff support, build teamwork, identify strategic partnership opportunities, and pursue as authorized by Board of Trustees other responsibility and authority as required to carry out duties, as approved by WEF. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6 | WEF has individual and corporate members. |

| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b | The Form 990 is drafted by WEF's outside audit firm with information and input from WEF's Executive Director and Chief Financial Officer. The draft 990 is reviewed by WEF's Treasurer (Audit Committee Chair), Executive Director, and Chief Financial Officer for accuracy.
