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)

Schedule J, Part I, Line 3
Child Neurology Foundation contracted with TriNet, a cloud-based professional employer organization (PEO), and all employees of the CNF are co-employees with TriNet. The CNF's Board of Directors is responsible for hiring and setting the compensation of the Executive Director. The Board employs procedures including: a separate compensation committee, use of a compensation survey/study, review of other organization's 990s, and no involvement of persons with conflict of interest. The Board last set compensation in 2025.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 4
The former Executive Director Amy Brin signed a resignation contract in late 2023 with the Board of Directors which included severance pay to be distributed after the negotiated final date of employment March 1, 2024. The severance package was accrued in the Foundation's 2023 personnel expenses as well as included on the 2023 990 Part VII, Column F "Other Compensation" as well as in Schedule J, Column C "Retirement and other deferred compensation". On the 2024 990 Part VII, the severance pay is located in Part VII, Column D & F reflecting the actual payments and in Schedule J Column B(iii), C and D reflecting the actual payments. It also is reflected in Schedule J, Column F "Compensation in (b) reported as deferred on prior form 990".
Schedule J, Part I, Line 7
All Foundation staff are eligible for an annual bonus, contingent on organizational financial position, typically paid in January for the prior year's work. The Board Compensation Committee determines the bonus of the Executive Director based on the year end performance review. The Executive Director determines staff eligibility based on annual performance reviews. No accrued 2023 bonuses were awarded to paid in 2024, and no 2024 bonuses were awarded and accrued to be paid in 2025.

Part I's answers as filed. A line not listed was left unanswered; on lines 1a and 3 that means the box was not checked.
