| ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt | 0 | Our organization filed an extension because we needed additional time to collect and verify our annual contribution and fundraising records We were also transitioning from CPA-prepared filings to completing the Form 990-EZ internally for the first time which required additional administrative effort to ensure accuracy In addition a Department of Energy grant we were pursuing was withdrawn due to a change in federal priorities in 2025 which resulted in a significant loss of expected support and placed an unexpected administrative burden on our volunteer team during the normal filing period These circumstances contributed to the delay but the organization acted in good faith to complete the return as soon as all information was available The delay was reasonable and not due to willful neglect We have improved our internal procedures to ensure future filings are timely |
