Accountability

Financial Transparency at Bridge Manifest CEC, Inc.

Every dollar entrusted to our 501(c)(3) is accounted for and stewarded with excellence. Below you'll find our program allocation, governance model, Form 990, and audited financial statements — the same accountability standards you'd expect from a Fortune-500 board, scaled to community need.

Our commitment to nonprofit accountability

Three pillars guide how Bridge Manifest handles donor dollars: independent governance, program-first spending, and public financial reporting.

Independent board oversight

Our board of directors meets quarterly and is independent of paid staff — a Fortune-500 governance best practice scaled to community need.

82¢ of every dollar goes to programs

The vast majority of every donation flows directly into program services — recovery, veterans, elder care, GED, and workforce readiness.

Annual Form 990 & audited financials

Form 990 filings, audited financial statements, and impact reports are available upon request and posted here every year.

Governance & board of directors

Bridge Manifest operates under an independent, unpaid board of directors that meets quarterly, approves our annual budget, and reviews all financial statements. Executive compensation is set by the board, and no director benefits financially from a program contract.

  • Quarterly board meetings with published minutes on request.
  • Annual conflict-of-interest disclosures from every director and officer.
  • Whistleblower and document-retention policies on file.
  • Independent CFO oversight of all deposits, disbursements, and reconciliations.
