Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Part XII, Line 2C

The organization does not have a formal committee with specific duties to oversee the audit and the selection of the independent accountant. However, the foundation's financial statements are reviewed by the entire board of trustees either at a formal board meeting, or by means of an "actions without a meeting", or they are distributed to the board of trustees via e-mail or mail without a formal board meeting or "actions without a meeting". An officer of the foundation, either the treasurer or assistant treasurer, presents or e-mails or mails the audited financial statements. Similarly, any discussion regarding the selection and retention of the independent accountant is done at the board level. These processes remain unchanged from the prior year.

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

The foundation is recognized as exempt from federal income tax under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code and, therefore, has made no provision for federal, state, or local income tax in the accompanying financial statements. The foundation has adopted the provisions of the financial accounting standards board (fasb) accounting standards codification (asc) relating to uncertain tax positions. Management has reviewed its current and past income tax positions and has determined, based on clear and unambiguous tax law and regulations, that the tax positions taken are certain and that there is no likelihood that a material tax assessment would be made if the respective government agency examined tax returns subject to audit. Accordingly, no provision for the effects of uncertain tax positions has been recorded.
