Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Page 3, Part X

The organization has been determined by the internal revenue service to be exempt from federal income tax under section 170(b)(1)(a)(vi) of the u. S. Internal revenue code and exempt from illinois income tax under the comparable state law. Accordingly, no provision for income tax has been established, and contributions to it are deductible within the limitations as prescribed by the internal revenue code. There was no unrelated business income nor unrecognized tax benefits for the year ended december 31, 2024. Each of the organization's prior three years remains subject to examination by the internal revenue service. The organization has evaluated its tax positions for all open tax years. Based on the evaluation of the organization 's tax positions, management believes all tax positions taken would be upheld under an examination. Therefore, no provision for the effects of uncertain tax positions has been recorded for the year ended december 31, 2024.
