FORM 990 - ORGANIZATION'S MISSION

“The mission of the greater lowell community foundation is to improve the quality of life in the area. The foundation is a community resource, which attracts funds, distributes grants, and serves as a catalyst and leader among funders, agencies and individuals to address identified and emergent needs. The community foundation is a professional, compassionate steward of donor funds and builds upon the creative vision of its founders and the community. It promotes and encourages the role of philanthropy in improving the quality of life in the communities it serves.”

Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Page 3, Part X

“The foundation incorporated under chapter 180 of the massachusetts general laws as a tax-exempt entity, has been granted tax-exempt status under internal revenue code (irc) section 501(c)(3) and is classified as other than a private foundation as defined by section 509(a) of the irc. Therefore, it is generally exempt from federal and state income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is provided for in the accompanying financial statements. Asc 740-10, "accounting for uncertainty in income taxes," requires the foundation to evaluate and disclose tax positions that could have an effect on the foundation's financial statements. The foundation reports its activities to the internal revenue service and to the commonwealth of massachusetts on an annual basis. These informational returns are generally subject to audit and review by the governmental agencies for a period of three years after filing. Management believes it is no longer subject to review by taxing authorities for periods prior to 2020. Substantially all of the foundation's income, expenditures, and activities relate to its exempt purpose, therefore, management has determined that the foundation is not subject to unrelated business income taxes and will continue to qualify as a tax-exempt not-for-profit entity.”
