Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990-EZ, Header, Line B

The original Form 990-EZ was filed using the calendar year (January 1 - December 31, 2024), which was incorrect. The organization's correct tax year is February 1, 2024 - January 31, 2025. This amended return reflects the correct fiscal year and corresponding financial information. The following sections were amended to reflect the correct period: Item L Part I: Lines 1, 9, 10, 13, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, and 21 Part II: Lines 22, 25, and 27 Part III: Lines 28a, 29a, 30a, and 32 Additional Amendments - Schedule A (Public Charity Status and Public Support): Part II - Section A: Lines 1e and 1f (Support totals and percentages), Lines 4e and 4f, Line 5f (Total support for Section A),Line 6f (Public support percentage) Part II - Section B: Lines 7e and 7f, Line 11f (Public support percentage for Section B) Part II - Section C: Lines 14 and 15 (Public support test result and status) These updates reflect recalculated support figures based on the corrected fiscal year and ensure proper classification under public charity status.

IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt0This is the organization's first time filing Form 990-EZ and Schedule A. In previous years, the organization filed Form 990-N, which does not require reporting of financial details. As a result, no prior-year public support data is available, and the percentage is calculated solely based on 2024 figures.
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt1The organization is filing Form 990-EZ for the first time. Since Form 990-N was filed in 2023, there was no prior Schedule A. The public support percentage reported in Section C, Line 15 is based solely on the organization's 2023 financial data.
