Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 2C:

The finance and executive committee is responsible for oversight of the audit, review, or compilation of its financial statements and selection of an independent accountant.

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

The organization, incorporated under chapter 180 of the massachusetts general laws as a tax exempt entity, has been granted tax-exempt status under internal revenue code section 501(c)(3), and is, therefore, generally exempt from federal and state income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been included in the accompanying financial statements. The organization is required by asc 740-10, "income taxes," to evaluate and disclose tax positions that could have an effect on the organization's financial statements. The organization reports its activities to the internal revenue service and to the commonwealth of massachusetts on an annual basis. These informational returns are generally subject to audit and review by the governmental agencies for a period of three years after filing. Substantially all of the organization's income, expenditures and activities relate to its exempt purpose, therefore, management has determined that the organization is not subject to unrelated business income taxes and will continue to qualify as a tax exempt not-for-profit entity.
