Financial Statement Notes

Part X : FIN48 Footnote

“The Organization qualifies as a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and related California code sections and accordingly, is not subject to federal or state income taxes. In accordance with US GAAP, the Organization accounts for uncertainty in income taxes by recognizing tax positions in the financial statements when it is more-likely-than-not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. As of December 31, 2024, the Organization has made no changes in the purpose, character, or method of operations and, therefore, has no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.”

IRS990/Desc0In 2024, the Organization completed the initial dissemination of research findings for the Unconditional Cash Study (also called ORUS), a randomized controlled trial. This work included publishing working papers, presenting at conferences, completing interviews, and developing a website to clearly share documentation and findings with the public. The Organization also hosted research briefings to engage policymakers, practitioners, and community leaders, and reached out directly to study participants to answer their questions about the results. The research team invited all participants to take part in quarterly surveys and conducted in-depth qualitative interviews with a subset of participants to better understand their experiences after the cash assistance program ended. The Organization also worked on additional analysis, secured several grants to support key components of this project, expanded public access to research documentation and data, collaborated with partner organizations, advised multiple groups implementing cash assistance programs on program design, evaluation, and implementation, and began development of new projects building on this research.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The Organization qualifies as a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and related California code sections and accordingly, is not subject to federal or state income taxes. In accordance with US GAAP, the Organization accounts for uncertainty in income taxes by recognizing tax positions in the financial statements when it is more-likely-than-not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. As of December 31, 2024, the Organization has made no changes in the purpose, character, or method of operations and, therefore, has no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.
