Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Part V, Line 2A

“Voter registration project education fund shares employees with another nonprofit organization, voter registration project (vrp), who uses a professional employer organization (peo). Vrp entered into a service agreement with vvn. Vvn is the employer of record for the purposes of paying wages. Vvn remits all taxes and files all returns under the vvn ein 46-1801360.

Form 990 Part XII, Line 2C

“The audit oversight process or selection process of an independent auditors has not changed from the prior year. The management team reviews the proposals received from the independent accountants and auditors. The management team makes an internal recommendation on the selection of independent accountant and auditors, which is then reviewed and approved by the board of directors. The management team also reviews the engagement agreements from the accounting and audit firms annually.”

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The organization follows the authoritative guidance relating to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes included in accounting standards codification topic 740-10, income taxes. These provisions provide consistent guidance for the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity's financial statements and prescribe a threshold of "more likely than not" for recognition and derecognition of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The organization performed an evaluation of uncertain tax positions for the year ended december 31, 2018 and determined that there were no matters that would require recognition in the financial statements or that may have any effect on its tax-exempt status. At december 31, 2018, the statute of limitations for the tax years ended december 31, 2016 and 2017 remains open with the u.s. Federal jurisdiction or the various state and local jurisdictions in which the organization files tax returns. It is the organization's policy to recognize interest and/or penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, in income tax expenses.”
