“Michael and betty mekdeci (husband and wife) are board members and organization founders. David mekdeci, their son works as the associate director.”
“A copy of the 990 is emailed by betty mekdeci to all board members for review and comments before electronically filing the return.”
“Board members must disclose any conflicts of interest during interview process and invitation to the board and are required to disclose verbally during board meeetings any conflicts of interest.”
“Documents are available via guidestar or upon request.”
“In accordance with "income taxes" fasb accounting standards codification topic 740 (topic 740), all entities are required to evaluate and disclose income tax risks. Topic 740 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions and prescribes guidance related to the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The tax benefit from an uncertain tax position is only recognized in the statement of financial position if the tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon an examination, based on the technical merits of the position. Since the association's income tax filings are subject to audit by various taxing authorities, generally for three years after they are filed, the association is no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities for years ended before august 31, 2022. The association is not aware of any activities that would jeopardize its tax-exempt status. There is no interest or penalties included in expenses in the statement of activities and changes in net assets. There are currently no pending income tax examinations by taxing authorities. As of august 31, 2025, the association had no uncertain tax positions that qualify for recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.”
