Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B

The organization makes its governing documents, form 990, and financial statements available to the public upon request for the same period of disclosure as set forth in section 6104(d).

Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

The foundation follows fasb asc 740, "income taxes", which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes by prescribing the recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. It also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. Management believes that the foundation has no material uncertainties in income taxes. The foundation is no longer subject to income tax examinations by the u.s. Federal, state or local tax authorities for years before 2014. The foundation will account for interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, as part of tax expense.
