“The organization does not have any officers who receive compensation from chicago cubs charities. Therefore, this question has been answered "no" in accordance with form 990 instructions.”
“Cecelia Ricketts - Family relationship, Laura M. Ricketts - Family relationship, J. Peter Ricketts - Family relationship, Thomas S. Ricketts - Family relationship, Todd M. Ricketts - Family relationship, Susanne Shore - Family relationship, Brooke Ricketts - Family relationship, Sylvie Legere - Family relationship”
“There are no committees with authority to act on the behalf of the governing body.”
“The Form 990 is prepared by Crowe LLP using information provided by the accounting department of Chicago Cubs Baseball Club, LLC. The completed return is reviewed by an accounting manager, the controller, and the executive director and provided to Chicago Cubs Charities Board of Directors prior to filing.”
“Directors and officers are asked to annually complete a conflict of interest questionnaire. An officer reviews the responses to the questionnaires for potential conflicts, and directors and officers are asked to recuse themselves from voting on any agenda item that represents potential conflict.”
“Governing documents are not available to the public. Audited financials are available through the Illinois Attorney General's office. The conflict of interest policy is available upon request.”
“The collection currently includes historical baseball memorabilia for display and educational purposes.”
“The balance as of 12/31/18 represents net proceeds from events held prior to 12/31/18 for which grants of such net proceeds to the applicable player, executive, and/or coach foundations will be made after 12/31/18.”
“CC is a not-for-profit organization, exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, and from Illinois state income tax. Accordingly, no provision for federal or state income taxes is included in the financial statements. There were no income tax related interest or penalties recognized by CC for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. CC does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly change in the next 12 months. CC would recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest and income tax expense, respectively. CC follows guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board with respect to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is more likely than not that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the more likely than not test, no tax benefit is recorded.”

| IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt | 2 | CC is a not-for-profit organization, exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, and from Illinois state income tax. Accordingly, no provision for federal or state income taxes is included in the financial statements. There were no income tax related interest or penalties recognized by CC for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. CC does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly change in the next 12 months. CC would recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest and income tax expense, respectively. CC follows guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board with respect to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is more likely than not that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the more likely than not test, no tax benefit is recorded. |
