Affirmation of Compliance and Disclosure Statement

  • I have received and carefully read the Conflict of Interest Policy for Board members, staff, and volunteers of The Delaplaine Arts Center (the Delaplaine) and have considered not only the literal expression of the policy but also its intent. By signing this affirmation of compliance, I hereby affirm that I understand and agree to comply with the Conflict of Interest Policy. I further understand that the Delaplaine is a charitable organization and that in order to maintain its federal tax exemption it must engage primarily in activities that accomplish one or more of its tax-exempt purposes. Except as otherwise indicated in the Disclosure Statement and attachments, if any, below, I hereby state that I do not, to the best of my knowledge, have any conflict of interest that may be seen as competing with the interests of the Delaplaine, nor does any relative or business associate have such an actual, apparent, or potential conflict of interest. If any situation should arise in the future which I think may involve me in a conflict of interest, I will promptly and fully disclose the circumstances to the Board Chair or to the CEO, as applicable. I further certify that the information set forth in the Disclosure Statement and attachments, if any, is true and correct to the best of my knowledge, information and belief.
