Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Part III, Line 4A, Program Service Accomplishments:

“Cause builds and amplifies impact for social-benefit work in two mutually reinforcing areas: - Nonprofit, government, and foundation consulting - Tools, trainings, and resources for capacity building To date, Cause has helped more than 21,000 nonprofit leaders in all 50 states, 45 countries, and on six continents increase their strategic communications skills and knowledge through our trainings and resource materials.”

Financial Statement Notes

Part X, Line 2:

“The Organization is exempt from taxation under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3) and California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 23701d. Generally accepted accounting principles provide accounting and disclosure guidance about positions taken by an organization in its tax returns that might be uncertain. Management has considered its tax positions and believes that all of the positions taken by the Organization in its federal and state exempt organization tax returns are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. The Organization returns are subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities, generally for three and four years, respectively, after they are filed.”
