Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Part X : FIN48 Footnote

“The Foundation is exempt from income taxes under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3) on its exempt function income and is classified by the IRS as a publicly supported organization. There was no unrelated business income tax for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Foundation evaluates any uncertain tax positions. Accordingly, the Foundation's policy is to record a liability for any tax position taken that is beneficial to the Foundation, including any related interest and penalties, when it is more likely than not the position of management with respect to a transaction or class of transactions will be overturned by a taxing authority upon examination. Management believes there are no such positions as of December 31, 2024.”
