Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 2C:

“There has been no change in the process from the prior year”

Financial Statement Notes

PART III, LINE 1A:

“"liberty wood eagle" - a majestic eagle carved from the wood of the last standing liberty tree. The eagle is on display at philadelphia's national constitution center and tells the significance that liberty trees played in the formation and development of american liberty. "spirit of liberty" bell- a near-exact fully portable replica of the original liberty bell, commissioned from white chapel bell foundry in london, england ( same foundry as cast the original liberty bell and big ben). The yoke of the bell is made from wood salvaged from the last standing liberty tree, a 600 year old tulip poplar in maryland. The bell is the traveling ambassador of the providence forum, allowing people across the country, who may never have the opporunity of seeing the original liberty bell in philadelphia, to examine, hear, and experience that bell, see and learn about its inscriptions and history, and learn the lost history of america's original thirteen liberty trees and the role they played in the american revolution.”

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc4GEORGE WASHINGTON AND ISRAEL,DR. LILLBACK'S INSIGHTFUL WORK RESEARCHES THE QUESTION, "IS IT INHERENTLY AMERICAN TO BE PRO-ISRAEL?" WHILE IT IS TRUE ISRAEL DID NOT EXIST IN WASHINGTON'S DAY, IN FACT, THE BRITISH BALFOUR DECLARATION OF 1917 BEGAN THE PROCESS OF ESTABLISHING ISRAEL 130 YEARS AFTER THE US CONSTITUTION WAS WRITTEN. YET, COULD THE EVIDENCE FROM WASHINGTON'S LIFE AND WRITINGS SHOW THAT HE KNEW FAR MORE ABOUT ISRAEL THAN MOST THOUGHT POSSIBLE? WITHIN ITS PAGES, DR. LILLBACK ANSWERS THAT QUESTION AND REVEALS WHAT OTHER AMERICAN PRESIDENTS HAVE TO SAY ON THIS VERY TIMELY TOPIC.
