Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Part IX, line 11G

“Payroll processing fees: Program service expenses 0. Management and general expenses 7,651. Fundraising expenses 0. Total expenses 7,651. Consulting/Professional fees: Program service expenses 2,665. Management and general expenses 37,641. Fundraising expenses 19,978. Total expenses 60,284.”

Form 990, Part IX

“As a result of the organization changing its year end in 2023 from a fiscal year end September 30th to a calendar year end December 31st, the organization is submitting a stub year 990 for the three-month period of October 1, 2023, through December 31, 2023. This stub year 990 reflects an overrepresentation of operational expenses vs. program services expenses. Previous and subsequent financial statements better capture the true program expense ratio for the organization.”
