Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund.

The Friends of Cetys Foundation established a $1,000,000 endowment fund to provide scholarships for students attending Sistema CETYS Universidad in Baja California, Mexico. The corpus of the endowment must be held in perpetuity in U.S. dollars at a reputable U.S. institution and cannot be spent. For the first five years, all income (including capital gains) is to be added to the corpus. After five years, up to 50% of the annual income may be used for scholarships, with any unused income added to the corpus for future years. If the funds assets exceed $3,000,000, the Finance Committee may revise the distribution policy to increase annual payout, provided the corpus is not eroded in real terms. The Finance Committee is required to establish an Investment Policy to prudently invest the corpus and ensure its real value increases, in compliance with UPMIFA and relevant probate code, unless inconsistent with donor instructions. If the Friends of Cetys Foundation or CETYS Universidad becomes inactive, dissolves, or loses IRS compliance, the corpus is to be distributed to the American British Cowdray Hospital Foundation in Mexico City, unless it is no longer tax-exempt. The Foundation and Fiduciary are encouraged to add to the corpus through fundraising under the same guidelines.

IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt0To maintain control and discretion over funds granted to a foreign organization, the Friends of CETYS Foundation board of directors first must review and approve every financial grant request made by the foreign organization. If the donation request is approved, the foundation typically requires the foreign organization to provide regular updates and a final report on how the funds of every grant were used with detailed verifying documentation, such as budgets, financial statements, receipts, pictures, or videos depending on the project funded. The organization may also conduct site visits to ensure the funds are used appropriately and following the grant agreement. Additionally, the organization may have the authority to withhold or reclaim funds if it determines that the foreign organization is not complying with the terms of the grant agreement or is not using the funds as intended. These actions and protocols help to ensure that the funds are being used effectively and efficiently to achieve the intended goals of the grant.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The Friends of Cetys Foundation established a $1,000,000 endowment fund to provide scholarships for students attending Sistema CETYS Universidad in Baja California, Mexico. The corpus of the endowment must be held in perpetuity in U.S. dollars at a reputable U.S. institution and cannot be spent. For the first five years, all income (including capital gains) is to be added to the corpus. After five years, up to 50% of the annual income may be used for scholarships, with any unused income added to the corpus for future years. If the funds assets exceed $3,000,000, the Finance Committee may revise the distribution policy to increase annual payout, provided the corpus is not eroded in real terms. The Finance Committee is required to establish an Investment Policy to prudently invest the corpus and ensure its real value increases, in compliance with UPMIFA and relevant probate code, unless inconsistent with donor instructions. If the Friends of Cetys Foundation or CETYS Universidad becomes inactive, dissolves, or loses IRS compliance, the corpus is to be distributed to the American British Cowdray Hospital Foundation in Mexico City, unless it is no longer tax-exempt. The Foundation and Fiduciary are encouraged to add to the corpus through fundraising under the same guidelines.
