Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7aThe AARP Board of Directors appoints the nine voting members of the AARP Foundation Board of Directors.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11As part of the shared services agreement with AARP, the Form 990 for AARP Foundation ("Foundation") is prepared and reviewed in AARP's internal tax department and reviewed by AARP's Controller's Office and Office of General Counsel. The Form 990 is reviewed by Foundation's CFO and President. The Form 990 is then provided to the AARP Foundation Board of Directors. The board has seven days to review and provide comments or questions. Once all reviews are complete, the return is electronically filed with the Internal Revenue Service.
All board members and employees (including officers) are required to review the ethics policy, formally acknowledge their understanding of the policy annually, and disclose any real or potential conflicts of interest. Disclosures are reviewed by appropriate management (or in the case of a board member, the Board Chair, and if necessary, the Board of Directors), and the Chief Ethics & Compliance Officer. The appropriate resolution plan is implemented (for example, recusal from participating in any deliberations and decisions relevant to the disclosure). The Chief Ethics & Compliance Officer monitors compliance with these requirements and ensures proper follow-up as needed.Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c
Through its shared services agreement with AARP, AARP Foundation participates in AARP's enterprise-wide compensation reviews. AARP has a competitive position in the marketplace that considers relevant for-profit and not-for-profit data since this is the landscape in which AARP and its affiliates compete for talent. Establishing the appropriate compensation for positions and jobs considers external market pricing (where possible) from an independent, third party compensation consulting firm, internal criteria, and an individual's actual performance and contribution. Internal criteria is based on a standard approach that measures the internal value of positions, including: complexity and scope of responsibility, skill set and competencies, education and experience, and the reporting relationship of the position. An individual's actual performance and contribution is measured through AARP's performance management approach and then rewarded through AARP's annual base pay merit and incentive award programs. This process applies to all employees of the Foundation including the President, CFO, and key employees. For AARP Foundation's president, officers, and key employees, based on the process described above, the officers of the AARP Foundation Board approves adjustments to the president's, officers, and key employees compensation package.Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15
AARP Foundation makes its Form 990 available for public inspection on its website and upon request to the AARP Foundation's Office of the CFO.Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19
