Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Pt VI, Line 11B

The 990 is prepared by independent accountants, reviewed by management, presented to the Board for review, proposed revisions and final approval.

Pt VI, Line 12C

Annually conflict of interest statements are required to be signed by each Board member. The statements affirm that the policy has been read & either that no conflict of interest exists or discloses any such conflict.

Pt VI, Line 15A

The Executive Director's and staff salaries are determined by the Board based on the amount of grant funding available. Since FIRST's programs are primarily funded by governmental grants, the Board's approved budget is subject to further review & approval by those agencies to determine acceptable budgeted salaried amounts.

Pt VI, Line 18

Forms 1023 and 990 are available upon request.

Pt VI, Line 19

Governing documents and conflict of interest policy are available upon request.

Financial Statement Notes

Pt X, Line 2

F.I.R.S.T is generally exempt from federal income taxes under 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Under the Code, however, income from certain activities not related to the organization's tax-exempt purpose may be subject to taxation as unrelated business income. The organization had less than $1,000 of income from unrelated business activities in the year ended September 30, 2015 and was, therefore, not required to file Federal Form 990-T (Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return). The organization believes that it has appropriate support for all tax positions taken, and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0F.I.R.S.T is generally exempt from federal income taxes under 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Under the Code, however, income from certain activities not related to the organization's tax-exempt purpose may be subject to taxation as unrelated business income. The organization had less than $1,000 of income from unrelated business activities in the year ended September 30, 2015 and was, therefore, not required to file Federal Form 990-T (Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return). The organization believes that it has appropriate support for all tax positions taken, and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements.
