ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0Penalty Abatement Request January 21, 2026 Department of the Treasury Internal Revenue Service [Insert Address from your IRS Notice] RE: Request for Penalty Abatement for Late Filing of Form 990-EZ Organization: New Hope Lafayette EIN: 45-5187648 Tax Year: 2024 (Fiscal Year Ending July 31, 2025) To Whom It May Concern, Please accept this letter as a formal request for an abatement of penalties associated with the late filing of Form 990-EZ for the tax year ending July 31, 2025. New Hope Lafayette is a dedicated 501(c)(3) organization that prides itself on compliance; however, a series of extraordinary hardships led to a 31-day filing delay. We respectfully submit that these circumstances constitute reasonable cause under IRS guidelines. Statement of Facts and Reasonable Cause: New Hope Lafayette is a small nonprofit with only two full-time employees. Our inability to file by the December 15, 2025, deadline was due to the following extraordinary circumstances: Medical Emergency & Staffing Strain: In August 2023, our Program Director suffered a stroke. Our CEO, John Newman, was required to assume all programmatic and daily operational duties immediately to maintain our after-school services. While this shift ensured our programs continued, it forced the CEO to divert his focus away from vital fundraising efforts. Financial Crisis and Threat to Operations: To cover the Program Director's absence, we hired additional part-time staff to oversee volunteers. These unplanned expenses led to a $26,000 deficit in fiscal year 2023. Although the Program Director eventually returned to full-time status, the prior disruption to fundraising caused a second deficit of $16,000 in fiscal year 2024. By the end of the fiscal year (July 31, 2025), our cash reserves had dwindled to $20,000-a level insufficient to sustain operations through December. Emergency Fundraising & Leadership Transition: From August through December 2025, the CEO was in "crisis fundraising mode" to prevent the organization from closing. Simultaneously, we transitioned to a new Treasurer after the previous officer moved out of state. Because the 990-EZ filing had not yet been codified into the new Treasurer's onboarding materials, and the CEO was singularly focused on the organization's survival, the filing deadline was inadvertently missed. Discovery and Prompt Remediation: The oversight was discovered on January 15, 2026. While finalizing year-end charitable-giving receipts for donors following a successful emergency campaign that saved the organization, the CEO realized the 990-EZ had not been filed. We took immediate action to rectify the error and are filing within 31 days of the original deadline. New Systems for Accountability and Redundancy: To ensure future compliance, we have implemented the following structural changes: Redundancy in Job Descriptions: Responsibility for the 990-EZ filing is now a formal requirement in the job descriptions of the President, Secretary, and Treasurer. Board Oversight: Our annual meeting schedule has been adjusted so that the Board of Directors reviews the 990-EZ alongside the annual report to ensure multiple layers of accountability. Conclusion: New Hope Lafayette acted in good faith to preserve its community programs during a period of extreme medical and financial duress. Once the error was discovered during year-end processing, we moved swiftly to comply. We respectfully request a one-time abatement of the late filing penalty. I declare that the facts presented in this statement are true, correct, and complete to the best of my knowledge. Sincerely, John P. Newman CEO, New Hope Lafayette (337) 316-9460
