Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

The Schools, Health and Libraries Broadband Coalition is a non-profit, 501(c)3 organization that seeks to address the "digital divide" by advocating for government policies that allow schools, libraries, health providers, and other anchor institutions to obtain open, affordable, high-quality broadband services in partnership with commercial and non-commercial broadband providers to serve their surrounding communities.

Activities or mission (Part I)

The SHLB Coalition is a mission-driven, membership-supported organization. SHLB's stated mission is "for every anchor institution in the country to have affordable, high-quality broadband that is open and accessible to the surrounding community."

  • The SHLB Coalition was able to renew its in-person events in 2022 after the COVID pandemic ended. We held an in-person symposium in April 2022 at the Hamilton restaurant in downtown DC. The program featured a policy discussion with NTIA (Doug Kinkoph) and two SHLB Board members (Rachelle Chong and Larry Irving). We raised sponsorship funding of $205,503 and about 150 people attended at no charge. After canceling our annual conference ("AnchorNets") in 2020 and 2021, we renewed the conference in 2022 with great success. Almost 400 people attended the event from Oct. 12-14, 2022 at the Sheraton Crystal City hotel in the DC region. The conference included workshops, plenary addresses, and break-out sessions with presentations from government officials, anchor institutions, public interest groups and private sector companies.

    Expenses $361,865 · Revenue $300,869

  • The SHLB Coalition membership program continued to grow and provided the largest amount of financial support for the organization. Membership grew to approximately 325 organizations by the end of 2022 and reflected a diversity of anchor institutions, broadband providers, consultants, and other public interest organizations. We continued to hold policy calls for the full membership every two weeks (usually attended by 120-130 people) along with 7 monthly policy group calls (on spectrum, infrastructure, pole attachments, E-rate, RHC, higher education and broadband mapping). Our Annual report summarized our accomplishments and listed the 54 new members that joined in 2022

    Expenses $182,741 · Revenue $729,619

  • Withheld by Nonprofiteer: this text may name a private individual.

    Expenses $294,222 · Revenue $35,000

As filed on the 2022 return. A text marked withheld matched a screen for wording that may name a private individual, such as an honorific or "in memory of". Most of what it withholds names no one; it is withheld so that what does is never shown.

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
The SHLB compensation convenes annually to review the Executive Director and set his salary. The review process includes a survey sent out to the board members, SHLB staff, and key members. In addition, the Executive Director fills out a self-assessment and provides a report recapping his achievements. During the compensation committee discussion, the committee researches the salary of Executive Directors in similar-sized non-profits around the Washington, DC area.

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.
