Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Part X : FIN48 Footnote

“The Organization has been granted tax exempt status under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(C)(3), and has been determined not to be a private foundation. The Organization had no unrelated business income in 2018 and 2017. Therefore, it is generally exempt from federal and state income taxes. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Organization to report information regarding its exposure to various tax positions taken by the Organization. The Organization has determined whether any tax positions have met the recognition threshold and have measured the Organizations exposure to those tax positions. Management believes that the Organization has adequately addressed all relevant tax positions and that there are no unrecorded tax liabilities. Federal and state tax authorities generally have the right to examine and audit the previous three years of tax returns filed. Any interest or penalties assessed to the Organization are recorded in operating expenses. No interest or penalties from federal or state tax authorities were recorded in the accompanying financial statements.”

IRS990/Desc0Lowell Humane Society Animal Shelter - Since its inception in 1873, the Lowell Humane Society (LHS), a 501(c)3 humane association, has served the Greater Lowell area with the mission of preventing cruelty to animals. Our early work focused on investigations of cruelty complaints involving animals in cooperation with local police departments and concerned citizens. In 1930 the Society opened its first animal shelter and in 1939, moved the shelter to its current site at 951 Broadway Street in Lowell, Massachusetts. Today the Lowell Humane Society is an open-admission animal shelter serving over two thousand animals annually in the Greater Lowell, Merrimack Valley, and Metro-West regions.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The Organization has been granted tax exempt status under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(C)(3), and has been determined not to be a private foundation. The Organization had no unrelated business income in 2018 and 2017. Therefore, it is generally exempt from federal and state income taxes. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Organization to report information regarding its exposure to various tax positions taken by the Organization. The Organization has determined whether any tax positions have met the recognition threshold and have measured the Organizations exposure to those tax positions. Management believes that the Organization has adequately addressed all relevant tax positions and that there are no unrecorded tax liabilities. Federal and state tax authorities generally have the right to examine and audit the previous three years of tax returns filed. Any interest or penalties assessed to the Organization are recorded in operating expenses. No interest or penalties from federal or state tax authorities were recorded in the accompanying financial statements.
