“Ecumenical trust account is monitored/managed by the board of trustees which has representatives from world council of churches, churches world service and national council of churches. Ecumenical trust itself does not have conflict of interest policy, whistleblower policy and the retention policy. However, its books are in the care of national council of churches, which has these policies to be followed. The board of trustees meets regularly in the year to review and enforce the conflict of interest policy and other policies and procedures.”
“Ecumenical trust's governing documents and conflict of interest policy and financial statmements are made available to the public upon request.”
“Ecumenical trust was formed to operate exclusively for charitable purposes and to establish a program to receive and manage inter vivos and testamentary outright gifts, life income gifts and other split interest gifts to support and further the work of the ecumenical ministries of world council of churches, national council of the churches of christ in the usa, and church world service, inc.”
“The endowment funds are used for various purposes such as for scholarships, for ecumenism and others.”
“The trust is exempt from federal income tax under irc section 501(a) as an organization described in section 501(c)(3). Since its initial filing for tax emempt status, the trust has not received any notice from the irs that such tax exempt status has been challenged or changed. There was no taxable income as of december 31, 2020 and 2019; therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in the trust's financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with gaap requires the trust to report information regarding its exposure to various tax positions taken by the trust. The trust has determined whether any tax positions met the recognition threshold and has measured its exposure to those tax positions. Management believes the trust has adequeately addressed all relevant tax positons and that there are no unrecorded tax liabilities. No interest or penalties from federal or state taxing authorities were recorded in the accompanying financial statements. The trust is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. The trust believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to december 31, 2017.”
