ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0The organization has suffered dramatic losses in capacity, programs and funding due to the pandemic. All organizational activities were suspended due to this uncertain outlook. As resources were redirected to attempt to save the community's only grocery store, there was no ability to hire a tax preparer. The board member who had previously been responsible for ensuring the preparation of or herself preparing the annual return resigned her position without notice and without providing the board with information about the status of the 2021 return. Therefore the organization was un able to prepare this return until the board could reconstitute itself and reorganize its financial and administrative affairs.
