ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0I am the volunteer Treasurer for the organization. We were severely impacted by the Pandemic and our Clubs and members went dormant for over a year. We began functioning again in 2022. Information was difficult to obtain and I was personally overwhelmed and suffering from coronary disease that led to an open heart triple bypass surgery. We do not have any paid officers or employees and are all volunteers. I respectfully request that penalties be abated and the non profit status of the organization be preserved.
