Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Part IV, Line 2B:

“The Foundation manages various pass-through grants of which monies are received from third party grant originators and are passed on to other third party grant recipients at the request and timing of the originator.”

Part V, Line 4:

“The Foundation operates endowments for a variety of purposes, each of which has been specified in the fund agreement by each fund originator. Generally, these endowments are intended to benefit local Kansas communities through grants to qualifying charitable organizations or for community betterment projects.”

Part X, Line 2:

“The Foundation is organized as a Kansas nonprofit corporation and has been recognized by the IRS as exempt from federal income taxes under IRC Section 501(a) as an organization described in IRC Section 501(c)(3). Further, the Foundation qualifies for the charitable contribution deduction under IRC Sections 170(b)(1)(A)(vi) and (viii) and has been determined not to be a private foundation under IRC Sections 509(a)(1). The Foundation is annually required to file a Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax (Form 990) with the IRS. In addition, the Foundation is subject to income tax on net income that is derived from business activities that are unrelated to its exempt purposes. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Foundation has determined that it is not subject to unrelated business income tax and has not filed an Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return (Form 990-T) with the IRS. Returns filed by the Foundation are subject to IRS examination, generally for three years after each return is filed. No taxing authorities have commenced income tax examinations for open tax years.”
