Schedule O:
“Be The Transformational Change Fund : EIN: XXX-XX-XXXX Tax Year: 2024 Explanation of Starting Balance: Be The Transformational Change Fund began truly operating in 2024, with limited initial activity in September 2023. As a result, we filed the 990-N (Postcard Form) for 2023, and no ending balance was reported for that year. Explanation of Increase in Revenues The organization experienced significant revenue growth in 2024 due to grassroots donations from contacts established over 26 years the founder had in a prior business helping to elevate year one donations. While we are pleased with this early success, we recognize that this level of fundraising may not be sustainable in future years. Given that 2024 was technically our first full year of operations, we consider it a strong start toward achieving our mission.

| IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt | 0 | Be The Transformational Change Fund : EIN: XXX-XX-XXXX Tax Year: 2024 Explanation of Starting Balance: Be The Transformational Change Fund began truly operating in 2024, with limited initial activity in September 2023. As a result, we filed the 990-N (Postcard Form) for 2023, and no ending balance was reported for that year. Explanation of Increase in Revenues The organization experienced significant revenue growth in 2024 due to grassroots donations from contacts established over 26 years the founder had in a prior business helping to elevate year one donations. While we are pleased with this early success, we recognize that this level of fundraising may not be sustainable in future years. Given that 2024 was technically our first full year of operations, we consider it a strong start toward achieving our mission. (Breakdown of Line 16 - Other Expenses $29,745) The total amount reported in Line 16 (Other Expenses) is $29,745, allocated as follows: (Travel, Meals, Per Diems, and Lodging : $18,862) Includes transportation costs for Miss International Queen (MIQ) program participants to various activities, as well as lodging and meal per diems for key participants.
