“There were no committees.”
“The vice president of finance and chief financial officer of east tennessee foundation reviews the form 990 and forwards a copy to all 4th purpose foundation board members via email prior to filing. The complete form 990 is also sent to an officer of 4th purpose foundation for review and signature.”
“Officers and directors with a conflict of interest on an issue on a meeting agenda are asked to disclose the conflict at the meeting and to recuse themselves from participation in discussion and voting on that item; such recusals are documented in the meetings minutes.”
“4th purpose foundation makes these documents available to the public upon request.”

“The foundation is exempt from federal income taxes under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code. In addition, the foundation qualifies for the charitable contribution deduction under section 170(b)(1)(a) and has been classified as an organization other than a private foundation under section 509(a)(1). Under accounting standards, an organization must recognize tax benefits associated with tax taken for tax return purposes when it is more likely than not that the position will not be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for 2024 and 2023. The foundation's form 990, return of organization exempt from income tax (including the returns for its supporting organizations), and its form 990 -t, unrelated business tax return, for the years ending 2021 through 2024 are subject to examination by the irs, generally for three years after they were filed.”
