Form 990, Part XI, Line 2C

“The executive committee of the board assumes responsibility for oversight of the audit and selection of an independent accountant, at the leading of the treasurer of the board. This process has not changed from the prior year.”

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The organization accounts for income taxes in accordance with income tax accounting guidance in asc topic 740. The organization follows the statutory requirement for its income tax accounting and generally avoids risks associated with potentially problematic tax positions that may be challenged upon examination. Management believes any liability resulting from taxing authorities imposing additional income taxes from activities deemed to be unrelated to the organization's non-taxable status would not have a material effect on the organization's financial statements. With few excpetions, the organization is no longer subject to tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2013.”

PART XI, LINE 2D - OTHER ADJUSTMENTS:

“Fundraising event expenses netted against event revenue for 990 presentation 23,324.”

PART XII, LINE 2D - OTHER ADJUSTMENTS:

“Fundraising event expenses netted against event revenue for 990 presentation 23,324.”
