Part X : FIN48 Footnote

“The organization is a nonprofit corporation exempt from federal income tax under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3) and state income tax under equivalent statutes, except on unrelated business income. Therefore, these financial statements contain no provision for such taxes. Informational returns are filed annually with federal and state taxing authorities. The organization is not aware of any transactions that would affect its tax-exempt status. The organization believes that it has appropriate support for any tax positions taken and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements. The organization had no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2022.”
