Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Part XII, Line 2C

The audit oversight process has not changed from the prior year.

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

The organization is exempt from income taxes under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code, except for net income derived from unrelated business activities. In addition, the organization qualifies for the charitable contribution deduction under section 170(b)(1)(a) and has been classified as an organization other than a private foundation under irc section 509(a). The organization's income tax filings are subject to audit by various taxing authorities. In evaluating the organization's activities, management believes its position of tax-exempt status is based on current facts and circumstances and there have been no uncertain positions taken related to recording income taxes. In the opinion of management there are no activities unrelated to the purpose of the organization and therefore no tax is to be recognized.
