Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16

Software and tools for program and administrative services, taxes, and insurance

Form 990-EZ, Part V, Line 34

The originally adopted bylaws of the Catherine Project identified a calendar year tax year. However, our Form 1023 application for recognition of exemption under section 501(c)(3) identified our tax year as ending in the month of June. During our board meeting on 10/08/22, we amended our bylaws to identify our tax year as ending in the month of June, in alignment with the understanding given to the IRS on our Form 1023.

IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt0The Catherine Project was awarded a one-time, unrestricted $100,000.00 grant by the Mercatus Center (through their Emergent Ventures program) at our inception. This was a nonrenewable grant and the Mercatus Center is not a granting organization specifically focused on our field or mission. We identified it as an unusual grant and, as such, did not include it on line 1 of Schedule A.
