Financial Statement Notes
Part X, Line 2:
“The Organization is a publicly-supported organization, recognized as tax exempt under section 501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Organization is exempt from the payment of taxes on income other than any income unrelated to its mission. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Organization did not have any net unrelated business income and, thus, no provision for income taxes was made. Additionally, the Internal Revenue Service as determined that the Organization is a publicly supported organization, and not a private foundation. Thus, donors to the Organization are entitled to a charitable deduction, reducing their taxable income. The Federal income status of the Organization is subject to examination by the IRS, generally for three years after the filing of its information returns.”

| IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt | 0 | The Organization is a publicly-supported organization, recognized as tax exempt under section 501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Organization is exempt from the payment of taxes on income other than any income unrelated to its mission. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Organization did not have any net unrelated business income and, thus, no provision for income taxes was made. Additionally, the Internal Revenue Service as determined that the Organization is a publicly supported organization, and not a private foundation. Thus, donors to the Organization are entitled to a charitable deduction, reducing their taxable income. The Federal income status of the Organization is subject to examination by the IRS, generally for three years after the filing of its information returns. |
