| ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt | 0 | The Form 990 filings for Buffalo First Inc. for fiscal years 2015 and 2016 are being submitted late. During the summer of 2016, the corporation's long-standing Treasurer Kelly Maurer fell ill, and she eventually passed in the fall of 2016. The books of the corporation and the archives of the corporation were held at Kelly's home. Kelly's work as Treasurer was essential to the continued functioning of the corporation. During this time and the months that followed, the corporation paused its programming. Important tax and annual filings were delayed, and it took a considerable amount of time to obtain the corporation's books and records from the deceased's home. The corporation has maintained a very small annual budget, and now relies almost entirely upon the volunteer contributions of its Directors. We are only now catching up on important filings, and will be submitted fiscal year 2015 and 2016 Forms 990 during the month of May 2018. It is our intention to remain in compliance with all future filings and to set the corporation up for ongoing success in pursuit of its charitable purpose beyond 2018. We request that penalties for these late filings be waived due to the above circumstances and the corporation's inability to pay such penalties. Thank you for your consideration. |
