ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0The organization was between executive directors in 2018 and there was a miscommunication regarding who would be prparing the 990EZ. THis was corrected as soon as notice of non-filing was received. Fiscal 2019 will be the final year of operation, the final 990EZ will be filed on a short year by 11/30/2019.
