ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0The organization is asking for an abatement or substantial reduction in penalty for late filing the Form 990. Sunset Spark's board is new and lacked experience in accounting. We experienced substantial growth in programs between 2015-2018, going from serving less than 100 youths to teaching over 3000 students a year. The mix of program growth, lack of paid employees, and board inexperience caused the board to fall behind in accounting in 2016. The organization attempted to correct this with an accountant, however the initial account was not capable of handling exempt organizations or the financial record keeping software used by the organization, which cause the organization to fall further behind in filing. Without fully reconciled and categorized transactions, the organization was not able to correctly file Form 990s. The organization's board now has more experience, two full-time employees, and weekly accounting reports. Future Form 990s will be filed in a timely manner in accordance with IRS dates.
