Financial Statement Notes

Part X, Line 2:

“The organization is organized as a not-for-profit corporation under section 501(c)(3) of the united states internal revenue code and similar state law. Accounting principles generally accepted in the united states of america require management to evaluate tax positions taken by the organization and recognize a tax liability if the organization has taken an uncertain tax position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by various federal and state taxing authorities. Management has analyzed the tax position taken by the organization, and has conculded that as of june 30, 2017, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability or disclosure in the accompanying financial statements. The organization is generally exempt from income taxes. However, the organization is required to file federal form 990 - returns of organization exempt from income tax and a corresponding state return, which are informational returns only. The organization has filed its federal and state income tax returns for periods through june 30, 2016 and is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions. These income tax returns are generally open to examination by the relevant taxing authorities for a period of three years from the later of the date the return was filed or its due date (including approved extensions).”
