Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 2C:

“The board of directors obtain the draft financial statements audited by the cpa. The board of directors then perform a review, make inquiries and approve the draft prior to issuance of audited financial statements.”

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“Uncertain tax positions footnote per audited financial statements: in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the united states of america, the organization recognizes the impact of tax positions in the financial statements if that position is more likely than not of being sustained in an audit, based on the technical merits of the position. To date, the organization has not recorded any uncertain tax positions, and the organization had no tax positions which, in the opinion of management, will be reversed if challenged by a taxing authority. During the year ended june 30, 2015, the organization did not recognize any amount in potential interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions. As of june 30, 2015, all federal tax returns since the 2011 tax year and state tax returns since the 2010 tax year are still subject to adjustment upon audit. No tax returns are currently being examined by taxing authorities”
