DescriptionGrantsExpenses
In early 2024 I was offered the consulting position as a director of research for a start-up, I offered my services as an independent researcher through my nonprofit. In early 2025 this contract ended, and as my credit score was greatly increased I have been able to leverage that to be able to get equipment that is now allowing me to work directly on my goals for ACE. I was certainly active in the community, such as serving as treasurer of the PTA, but primarily 2024 was a year aimed at fundraising for the nonprofit.$0$0

ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0To Whom It May Concern, I am writing on behalf of the Advancement of Civilization Effort (ACE), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, regarding the late filing of our Form 990-EZ for tax year 2024. Since our founding in 2017, ACE has filed every annual return on time and has never before had a lapse in compliance. Unfortunately, due to an unusual convergence of circumstances earlier this year - including a lawsuit, sudden loss of employment, the necessity of shifting to gig work to provide for my family, and an unexpected personal tax liability - I inadvertently overlooked the May 15, 2025 filing deadline. This was an isolated oversight, not reflective of our usual diligence. As soon as I became aware of the issue through the IRS notice, I took immediate steps to prepare and file the overdue Form 990-EZ. ACE remains fully committed to compliance and transparency, and we will implement additional reminders to ensure this does not happen again. Given our clean filing history since 2017, our prompt corrective action, and the extraordinary personal and financial disruptions this year, I respectfully request abatement of any penalties under the First-Time Abatement (FTA) policy or on the grounds of reasonable cause. ACE is a small nonprofit working to advance scientific and educational goals, and any penalties would impose a significant hardship. Waiving these penalties would allow us to continue focusing resources on our charitable mission. Thank you for your time and consideration. Please contact me at [phone number] or [email address] if additional information is required. Sincerely, Alix Claire Erie President & Director Advancement of Civilization Effort
