Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

PART V, LINE 4:

“The shelter's endowment funds earnings support the mission of the shelter. The shelter has a policy of appropriating the distribution for each year not to exceed 4.75% of its selected endowment fund's trailing average market value over the three years preceding the year in which the distribution is planned. In establishing this policy, the shelter considered the long-term expected return on its endowment. Accordingly, over the long term, the shelter expects the current spending policy to allow its endowment to grow at an average of 5 to 8 percent annually.”

PART X, LINE 2:

“Us gaap requires management to evaluate income tax positions taken by the organization and to recognize an income tax liability (or asset) if the organization has taken an uncertain tax position that more likely than not would not be substantiated upon examination by the internal revenue service ("irs"). The organization has identified its income tax status as a tax-exempt entity as its only significant income tax position; however, the organization has determined that such income tax position does not result in an uncertainty requiring recognition in the financial statements. The organization is not currently under examination by any taxing jurisdiction.”
