Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

PART V, LINE 4:

“Endowment funds held by the foundation are used to support the foundation's mission. Annual distributions from endowment investment income and/or gains are determined by the board of directors.”

PART X, LINE 2:

“A recently issued accounting standard requires entities to disclose in their financial statements the nature of any uncertainty in their tax position. For tax-exempt entities, their tax-exempt status itself is deemed to be an uncertainty, since events could potentially occur to jeopardize their tax-exempt status. The foundation has implemented this standard and its current accounting policy for evaluating uncertain tax positions is in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The foundation has not recognized any benefits from uncertain tax positions in 2015 or 2014 and believes it has no uncertain tax positions for which it is reqasonable possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within 12 months of the balance sheet date. The foundation recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in miscellaneous expense. No interest or penalties were recognized in 2011 or 2010. The foundation files informational returns in the u.s. Rederal jurisdiction and new york state. The foundation's returns are no longer subject to examination by tax authorities for fiscal years prior to 2008.”

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0ENDOWMENT FUNDS HELD BY THE FOUNDATION ARE USED TO SUPPORT THE FOUNDATION'S MISSION. ANNUAL DISTRIBUTIONS FROM ENDOWMENT INVESTMENT INCOME AND/OR GAINS ARE DETERMINED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS.
IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1A RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARD REQUIRES ENTITIES TO DISCLOSE IN THEIR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THE NATURE OF ANY UNCERTAINTY IN THEIR TAX POSITION. FOR TAX-EXEMPT ENTITIES, THEIR TAX-EXEMPT STATUS ITSELF IS DEEMED TO BE AN UNCERTAINTY, SINCE EVENTS COULD POTENTIALLY OCCUR TO JEOPARDIZE THEIR TAX-EXEMPT STATUS. THE FOUNDATION HAS IMPLEMENTED THIS STANDARD AND ITS CURRENT ACCOUNTING POLICY FOR EVALUATING UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS IS IN ACCORDANCE WITH GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES. THE FOUNDATION HAS NOT RECOGNIZED ANY BENEFITS FROM UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS IN 2015 OR 2014 AND BELIEVES IT HAS NO UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS FOR WHICH IT IS REQASONABLE POSSIBLE THAT THE TOTAL AMOUNTS OF UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFITS WILL SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE OR DECREASE WITHIN 12 MONTHS OF THE BALANCE SHEET DATE. THE FOUNDATION RECOGNIZES INTEREST AND PENALTIES RELATED TO UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFITS IN MISCELLANEOUS EXPENSE. NO INTEREST OR PENALTIES WERE RECOGNIZED IN 2011 OR 2010. THE FOUNDATION FILES INFORMATIONAL RETURNS IN THE U.S. REDERAL JURISDICTION AND NEW YORK STATE. THE FOUNDATION'S RETURNS ARE NO LONGER SUBJECT TO EXAMINATION BY TAX AUTHORITIES FOR FISCAL YEARS PRIOR TO 2008.
