Financial Statement Notes

Part X, Line 2:

“The Organization is exempt from income tax under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Contributions to the Organization are tax deductible as the Organization qualifies under Section 170(c) of the Internal Revenue Code. During the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Organization has not incurred any interest or penalties on its tax returns. The Organization reviews and assesses its tax positions taken or expected to be taken in tax returns. Based on this assessment the Organization determines whether it is more likely than not that the position would be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. The Organization's assessment has not identified any significant positions that it believes would not be sustained under examination. The Organization has identified its tax status as a tax exempt entity as it's only significant tax position and has determined that such tax position does not result in an uncertainty requiring recognition. The Organization is not currently under examination by any taxing jurisdiction. Its federal income tax returns are generally open for examination for three years after the date of filing, including extensions.”

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The Organization is exempt from income tax under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Contributions to the Organization are tax deductible as the Organization qualifies under Section 170(c) of the Internal Revenue Code. During the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Organization has not incurred any interest or penalties on its tax returns. The Organization reviews and assesses its tax positions taken or expected to be taken in tax returns. Based on this assessment the Organization determines whether it is more likely than not that the position would be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. The Organization's assessment has not identified any significant positions that it believes would not be sustained under examination. The Organization has identified its tax status as a tax exempt entity as it's only significant tax position and has determined that such tax position does not result in an uncertainty requiring recognition. The Organization is not currently under examination by any taxing jurisdiction. Its federal income tax returns are generally open for examination for three years after the date of filing, including extensions.
