Financial Statement Notes

Part X : FIN48 Footnote

“The Organization is exempt from income tax under provisions of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. This code enables the Organization to accept donations that qualify as charitable contributions to the donor. The Organizations increase in net assets is generally not subject to income taxes. However, income from certain activities not directly related to the Organizations tax-exempt purpose is subject to taxation as unrelated business income. No provision for income tax has been recorded in the financial statements as management does not believe there was any unrelated business taxable income in 2024 and 2023.With few exceptions, the Organizations information returns are not subject to examination for tax years prior to 2021.”

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The Organization is exempt from income tax under provisions of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. This code enables the Organization to accept donations that qualify as charitable contributions to the donor. The Organizations increase in net assets is generally not subject to income taxes. However, income from certain activities not directly related to the Organizations tax-exempt purpose is subject to taxation as unrelated business income. No provision for income tax has been recorded in the financial statements as management does not believe there was any unrelated business taxable income in 2024 and 2023.With few exceptions, the Organizations information returns are not subject to examination for tax years prior to 2021.
