Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The organization is exempt from income tax under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code (irc). Accordingly, no income tax is reflected in the accompanying financial statements. In addition, the organization is classified as an organization that is not a private foundation under irc section 509(a); therefore, donations qualify for maximum charitable contribution deductions under irc section 170(b) (1) (a) (vi). As of december 31, 2023, the organization had not identified any uncertain tax positions under asc topic 740, income taxes, requiring adjustments to its financial statements. In the event the organization were to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, it would be recognized in the financial statements as interest expense for interest and miscellaneous for penalties. Generally, the prior three years' tax returns are open to examination by the federal and state taxing authorities; however, the organization is open to 2021, 2022, and 2023. In addition, there are no income tax examinations currently in process.”
