“The organization is trustee in the exceptional foresters pooled trust. The principal activity of the trust is to provide management of trust funds for disabled adults. The purpose for the pooled trust is to supplement, but not to supplant, whatever benefits and services the beneficiaries may from time to time be eligible to receive from other sources. The asset and liability balances of the exceptional foresters pooled trust have not been included in the financial statements of the organization because the organization has no economic interest in these assets and liabilities.

The organization acts as the social security representative payee for most of the clients it serves in its residential services program.
