ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0THE ORGANIZATION TIMELY FILED FORM 990-N, AND THEREFORE DID NOT REQUEST AN EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THE ORGANIZATIONS' REVENUE EXCEEDED THE THRESHOLD TO FILE THE 990-N, AND ORGANIZERS WERE UNAWARE OF THE REQUIREMENT TO FILE FORM 990-EZ INSTEAD. IMMEDIATELY UPON REALIZING THE MISTAKE, THE OFFICERS ENGAGED A PROFESSIONAL PREPARER AND CORRECTED THE MISTAKE, FILING THE REQUIRED FORM 990-EZ. THE OFFICER'S ARE NOW AWARE OF THE FILING REQUIREMENTS AND WILL INSURE PROPER FILING IN THE FUTURE.
