Return Reference Explanation
Part V, Line 4: The Foundation holds endowment and other funds on behalf of others. Distributions from these funds provide operating support for the activities of the endowed nonprofit organizations. As such, these funds provide long term financial support to supplement the organizations' annual fundraising efforts.
Part X, Line 2: The Foundation, including its non-profit supporting organizations, applies a more-likely-than-not measurement methodology to reflect the combined financial statement impact of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. After evaluating the tax positions taken, none are considered to be uncertain; therefore, no amounts have been recognized as of December 31, 2015. If incurred, interest and penalties associated with tax positions are recorded in the period assessed as other operating expense. No interest or penalties have been assessed as of December 31, 2015.
Part X Line 2: The Foundation and its nonprofit supporting organization have been determined to be exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501 (c) (3) of the internal revenue code. The supporting organizations were established under the provisions of Section 509 (a)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Foundation is responsible for expenditures of the supporting organizations for specific charitable purposes.
