Financial Statement Notes

Part X, Line 2:

“FIN 48 Note from Audited Financial Statements: The Organization is exempt from federal income taxes under the provisions of Section 501 (c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Management believes that it did not engage in any unrelated business activities; thus, no provision for income tax has been provided for the financial statements. The Organization's Form 990, Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax, is subject to examination by the IRS, generally for three years after they were filed. The Organization has adopted the requirements for accounting for uncertain tax positions and management has determined that the Organization was not required to record a liability related to uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2021.”
