“The Foundation is a not-for-profit organization, exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (the Code), and contributions to it are tax deductible as prescribed by the Code. The Foundation is also exempt from California income tax under Section 23701d of Revenue and Taxation Code. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been included in these financial statements. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require the Foundation management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Foundation and recognize a tax liability (or asset), if the Foundation has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by Internal Revenue Service. The Foundation has analyzed its tax positions and has concluded that as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements.”

| IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt | 1 | The Foundation is a not-for-profit organization, exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (the Code), and contributions to it are tax deductible as prescribed by the Code. The Foundation is also exempt from California income tax under Section 23701d of Revenue and Taxation Code. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been included in these financial statements. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require the Foundation management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Foundation and recognize a tax liability (or asset), if the Foundation has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by Internal Revenue Service. The Foundation has analyzed its tax positions and has concluded that as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements. |
