Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

The filer's explanations (Part III)

PART I, LINE 3
ASSOCIATION OF ORGAN PROCUREMENT ORGANIZATION FOUNDATION("AOPOF") DOES NOT DIRECTLY HIRE OR COMPENSATE EMPLOYEES. ALL EMPLOYEES ARE EMPLOYEES OF ASSOCIATION OF ORGAN PROCUREMENT ORGANIZATIONS ("AOPO"). THE CEO'S SALARY IS REVIEWED ANNUALLY BY REPRESENTATIVES OF THE AOPO EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. IT WAS MOST RECENTLY REVIEWED AND DETERMINED AT A MEETING IN JULY 2025. OTHER OFFICERS' SALARIES ARE REVIEWED ON AN ANNUAL BASIS BY THE CEO. ANY SALARY INCREASE GRANTED IS BASED ON EMPLOYEE PERFORMANCE FOR THE YEAR. IF GRANTED A SALARY INCREASE, IT WILL NORMALLY BE EFFECTIVE ON THE EMPLOYEE'S ANNIVERSARY DATE. IN ORDER TO ADMINISTER SALARY PLANNING IN THE MOST EQUITABLE AND EFFICIENT MANNER, THE FOLLOWING FACTORS ARE CONSIDERED: 1) DEMONSTRATED COMPETENCE OF THE EMPLOYEE AND ABILITY TO PERFORM EVERY ASPECT OF THE JOB; 2) SALARY RELATIONSHIPS TO SUPERVISOR, SUBORDINATES AND/OR PEERS; 3) PREVAILING RATES PAID FOR SIMILAR POSITIONS IN THE MARKETPLACE. RATES ARE BASED ON COMPENSATION STUDIES AND INFORMATION THAT CAN BE FOUND IN A VARIETY OF SOURCES, SUCH AS THOSE PUBLISHED BY ASAE & THE CENTER FOR ASSOCIATION LEADERSHIP, OR THE COMPENSATION STUDY OF OUR OWN MEMBERSHIP ORGANIZATIONS (FOR COMPARABLE POSITIONS), OR BY UTILIZING VARIOUS OTHER ONLINE JOB AND SALARY SEARCH ENGINES FOR SIMILAR POSITIONS WITH SIMILAR SIZED ORGANIZATIONS AND LOCATION; 4) TIME IN PRESENT POSITION; AND 5) FISCAL STATE OF THE ORGANIZATION.
