“The prior period adjustment of (1,986,281) is attributed to the following: (59,457) is due to a reclass of custodial funds from the prior year, in an effort to enhance transparency and provide users of the combined financial statements with a clearer understanding of the foundation's net assets. (1,926,824) is due to the removal of the prior year net assets of congregation b'nai israel endowment foundation (the congregation), which was consolidated with jewish endowment foundation's (the foundation) activity on prior year 990s. In december 2024 amended articles of incorporation were filed with the louisiana secretary of state to clarify that the purpose of the congregation is to support congregation b'nai israel and its cemetery, and not the foundation as originally drafted. Therefore the congregation is an auxiliary of a church/temple, which provides tax-exempt status and precludes it from filing an annual 990. For this reason the net assets have been removed from the 990 and the congregation's activity will no longer be reported on the foundation's 990.”
