PART III - LINE 1	Brooklyn Community Foundation is on a mission to spark lasting social change, mobilizing people, capital, and expertise for a fair and just Brooklyn. Born out of the legacy of Independence Community Bank, a Brooklyn institution for more than 150 years, the Foundation began in 1998 as a private Grantmaker to local nonprofits. A decade later, we transitioned to become a public community foundation the first dedicated to a single New York City borough with an endowment that ensures 100% of all contributions goes directly back to Brooklyn. Since 2009, the Foundation and its donors have provided over $40 million in grants to more than 300 nonprofits throughout the borough, bolstering vital programs and services while responding to urgent community needs. PART III - LINE 4C Brooklyn Accelerator: Spark Prize: created to celebrate Brooklyn nonprofits and encourage greater local giving. In 2017, five Brooklyn nonprofits received a Spark Prize of $100,000 each. In addition, the Foundation created Brooklyn Gives, a crowd-funding campaign in conjunction with #Giving Tuesday, through which it awarded $100,000 in matching grants to 20 finalists identified through the Spark Prize selection process. Incubator Project: created to provide a springboard for exciting, emerging Brooklyn organizations. With our headquarters in Crown Heights, the Foundation supports a small cohort of startup nonprofits by providing free co-working space for 18 months, customized technical assistance and capacity building support, and a $5,000 stipend part iii - line 4d neighborhood strength: Launched in Crown Heights in 2014, Neighborhood Strength continues the Foundation's efforts to position Brooklyn residents as key decision-makers in local investments while creating a model for neighborhood grantmaking that can be used across the borough. In 2016, a diverse group of religious leaders, business owners, activists and youth came together to form the Crown Heights Advisory Council. Together, they determined the priorities for a grant program that awarded $100,000 to local organizations addressing tenants' rights and homelessness, police relationships, youth development, and stronger bonds between Crown Heightscommunities. immigrant rights fund: the foundation launched the immigrant rights fund in 2017 to provide both immediate and long term support for organizations responding to mounting fear and uncertainty in brooklyn's immigrant communities.

In addition, all directors will be invited to attend the Audit Committee meeting at which the Form with the exception of Schedule B will be reviewed and discussed with staff management.
part vi - section b. - question 12c	Annually, all directors and employees complete a Conflict of Interest Disclosure Questionnaire which is reviewed by the cheif operating officer and elevated to the President and Governance & Nominating Committee if issues are noted. Before new directors are elected to the Board, the completed Questionnaire is similarly reviewed. As potential transactions are considered, directors and employees are required to disclose conflicts, and the conflicted director or employee is excluded from participating in deliberations and decisions concerning the matter. Such disclosures are noted in the meeting minutes.
part vi - section b. - questions 15a & 15b	15a. The compensation for the President is reviewed and decided upon annually by the Board. As part of the process, a written performance appraisal is conducted. The Board approves all salary adjustments in an executive session during which contemporaneous minutes are not recorded. After review and discussion, the Board determines the President's compensation for the next year. 15b. OFFICERS as well as other employees receive a performance appraisal from their immediate supervisors. Salary adjustments must be approved by the President and will be given, where appropriate, based upon the performance appraisal and within budgetary limits. Various outside salary surveys are used to assist in determining any adjustments.
part vi - section c. - question 19	the foundation makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements available to the public on the foundation's website.
