Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The organization is exempt from federal income taxes as an organization (not a private foundation) formed for charitable purposes under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code ("irc"). The organization is also exempt from state income taxes. Donors may deduct contributions made to the organization within the irc regulations. The organization is required to recognize the financial statement's impact of a tax position unless it is more likely than not that the position will not be sustained upon examination. If applicable, the organization recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses. The tax years subsequent to 2022 are open and subject to examination by the internal revenue service and the commonwealth of massachusetts. However, the organization is not currently under audit nor has the organization been contacted by either of these jurisdictions. Based on the evaluation of the organization's tax positions, management believes all positions taken would be upheld under an examination. Therefore, no provision for the effects of uncertain tax positions has been recorded for the year ended august 31, 2024.”
