Governance
This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

Based on meeting agendas, club records, and member participation, approximately 65% of club activities are devoted to educational, charitable, and community service purposes. The remaining activities consist of fellowship and administrative functions necessary to support the club's mission and charitable activities.
