Return Reference Explanation
PART III, LINE 4: THE HUMAN RIGHTS FOUNDATION (HRF) MAINTAINS AN ART COLLECTION CONSISTING OF WORKS CREATED BY DISSIDENT ARTISTS SUPPORTED THROUGH ITS ART IN PROTEST PROGRAM, AS WELL AS ARTWORKS DONATED BY PARTICIPATING ARTISTS AND A MEMBER OF THE HRF BOARD OF DIRECTORS. THE COLLECTION INCLUDES PIECES BY ARTISTS WORKING UNDER AUTHORITARIAN REGIMES OR IN EXILE, WHOSE WORK SERVES AS A FORM OF RESISTANCE, SOCIAL COMMENTARY, AND ADVOCACY FOR FREEDOM. MAINTAINING THIS COLLECTION IS INTEGRAL TO HRF'S EXEMPT PURPOSE OF PROMOTING AND PROTECTING HUMAN RIGHTS GLOBALLY. THE ARTWORKS ARE USED IN PUBLIC EXHIBITIONS, EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS, AND ADVOCACY CAMPAIGNS TO RAISE AWARENESS ABOUT REPRESSION AND AMPLIFY THE VOICES OF THOSE WHO ARE SILENCED IN THEIR OWN COUNTRIES. THESE WORKS PROVIDE A TANGIBLE, EMOTIONALLY RESONANT WAY FOR HRF TO ENGAGE DIVERSE AUDIENCES, BROADEN ITS IMPACT, AND FURTHER ITS MISSION THROUGH CULTURE-DRIVEN STORYTELLING AND CIVIC DIALOGUE. THE COLLECTION ALSO SERVES AS A HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL ARCHIVE OF RESISTANCE ART, HELPING PRESERVE THE NARRATIVES OF COURAGEOUS INDIVIDUALS WHO RISK THEIR FREEDOM TO SPEAK OUT THROUGH CREATIVE EXPRESSION. IN THIS WAY, THE ART COLLECTION IS NOT ONLY MISSION-ALIGNED BUT ALSO ESSENTIAL TO HRF'S STRATEGY OF USING CULTURE AS A TOOL FOR ADVANCING HUMAN RIGHTS.
PART X, LINE 2: THE FOUNDATION RECOGNIZES THE EFFECT OF INCOME TAX POSITIONS ONLY IF THOSE POSITIONS ARE MORE LIKELY THAN NOT TO BE SUSTAINED. MANAGEMENT HAS DETERMINED THAT THE FOUNDATION HAD NO UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS THAT WOULD REQUIRE FINANCIAL STATEMENT RECOGNITION OR DISCLOSURE. THE FOUNDATION IS NO LONGER SUBJECT TO EXAMINATIONS BY THE APPLICABLE TAXING JURISDICTIONS FOR PERIODS PRIOR TO DECEMBER 31, 2023.

ReturnReference Explanation
PART I, LINE 2: ELIGIBLE CANDIDATES FOR THE HUMAN RIGHTS FOUNDATION'S (HRF) GRANTS ARE ORGANIZATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS WHO CARRY OUT PROJECTS THAT PROMOTE AND DEFEND HUMAN RIGHTS IN CLOSED SOCIETIES IN ACCORDANCE WITH HRF'S MISSION AND EXEMPT PURPOSE. IN ORDER TO ASSESS ELIGIBILITY FOR AWARDS AND GRANTS, HRF'S LEGAL TEAM REVIEWS SUBMISSIONS BY HRF'S DIFFERENT PROGRAM AND POLICY TEAMS AND BY MEMBERS OF HRF'S COMMUNITY OF DISSIDENTS, AND CONDUCTS DUE DILIGENCE ON GRANTEE CANDIDATES. THE GRANT APPLICATIONS DESCRIBE CANDIDATES' PROJECTS, INCLUDING THEIR STATEMENT OF NEED, GOALS, PLAN OF ACTION, AND BUDGET. HRF'S LEGAL AND POLICY DEPARTMENT VETS AND REVIEWS THE APPLICATIONS. AS A RESULT, THE DEPARTMENT SUBMITS A WRITTEN RECOMMENDATION TO THE HRF EXECUTIVE BODY RESPONSIBLE FOR APPROVAL OR DENIAL OF THE GRANT, DEPENDING ON THE BOARD-SANCTIONED GRANT APPROVAL AUTHORIZATIONS. THEN THE RESPONSIBLE BODY WILL APPROVE OR DENY THE GRANT, DOCUMENTED IN WRITING. IF THE GRANT IS APPROVED, THE HRF LEGAL AND POLICY TEAM DRAFTS THE GRANT AGREEMENT AND ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING A COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATION, FOR THE GRANTEE'S SIGNATURE. EACH GRANT AGREEMENT INCLUDES REPORTING REQUIREMENTS, TYPICALLY PERIODIC REPORTS, AND A FINAL REPORT. THE PERIODIC REPORTS PROVIDE AN UPDATE ON THE PROGRESS OF THE PROJECTS. THE FINAL REPORTS DETAIL HOW THE FUNDS WERE USED AND THE ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND IMPACT THAT WERE MADE. THIS INCLUDES RECEIPTS, INVOICES, OR EQUIVALENT DOCUMENTS ACCORDING TO THE COUNTRY WHERE THE PROJECT IS CARRIED OUT. GRANTS SPECIFICALLY FOR THE BITCOIN DEVELOPMENT FUND THAT ARE GIVEN TO DEVELOPERS ARE MONITORED VIA THE DEVELOPER'S GITHUB PAGE. GITHUB DISPLAYS THE GRANT RECIPIENT'S CODING WORK, UPDATES, AND PROJECT PROGRESS. FOR GRANT SELECTION, HRF REVIEWS THEIR PREVIOUS CODING WORK, CONSULTS WITH EXPERTS IN THE RELEVANT COMMUNITY, AND ANALYZES THE FEASIBILITY OF THE GRANT PROPOSAL.
PART I, LINE 3: ACCRUAL METHOD IS USED TO ACCOUNT FOR THE EXPENDITURES.

PART I, LINE 2: ELIGIBLE CANDIDATES FOR THE HUMAN RIGHTS FOUNDATION'S (HRF) GRANTS ARE ORGANIZATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS WHO CARRY OUT PROJECTS THAT PROMOTE AND DEFEND HUMAN RIGHTS IN CLOSED SOCIETIES IN ACCORDANCE WITH HRF'S MISSION AND EXEMPT PURPOSE. IN ORDER TO ASSESS ELIGIBILITY FOR AWARDS AND GRANTS, HRF'S LEGAL TEAM REVIEWS SUBMISSIONS BY HRF'S DIFFERENT PROGRAM AND POLICY TEAMS AND BY MEMBERS OF HRF'S COMMUNITY OF DISSIDENTS, AND CONDUCTS DUE DILIGENCE ON GRANTEE CANDIDATES. THE GRANT APPLICATIONS DESCRIBE CANDIDATES' PROJECTS, INCLUDING THEIR STATEMENT OF NEED, GOALS, PLAN OF ACTION, AND BUDGET. HRF'S LEGAL AND POLICY DEPARTMENT VETS AND REVIEWS THE APPLICATIONS. AS A RESULT, THE DEPARTMENT SUBMITS A WRITTEN RECOMMENDATION TO THE HRF EXECUTIVE BODY RESPONSIBLE FOR APPROVAL OR DENIAL OF THE GRANT, DEPENDING ON THE BOARD-SANCTIONED GRANT APPROVAL AUTHORIZATIONS. THEN THE RESPONSIBLE BODY WILL APPROVE OR DENY THE GRANT, DOCUMENTED IN WRITING. IF THE GRANT IS APPROVED, THE HRF LEGAL AND POLICY TEAM DRAFTS THE GRANT AGREEMENT AND ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING A COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATION, FOR THE GRANTEE'S SIGNATURE. EACH GRANT AGREEMENT INCLUDES REPORTING REQUIREMENTS, TYPICALLY PERIODIC REPORTS, AND A FINAL REPORT. THE PERIODIC REPORTS PROVIDE AN UPDATE ON THE PROGRESS OF THE PROJECTS. THE FINAL REPORTS DETAIL HOW THE FUNDS WERE USED AND THE ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND IMPACT THAT WERE MADE. THIS INCLUDES RECEIPTS, INVOICES, OR EQUIVALENT DOCUMENTS ACCORDING TO THE COUNTRY WHERE THE PROJECT IS CARRIED OUT. GRANTS SPECIFICALLY FOR THE BITCOIN DEVELOPMENT FUND THAT ARE GIVEN TO DEVELOPERS ARE MONITORED VIA THE DEVELOPER'S GITHUB PAGE. GITHUB DISPLAYS THE GRANT RECIPIENT'S CODING WORK, UPDATES, AND PROJECT PROGRESS. FOR GRANT SELECTION, HRF REVIEWS THEIR PREVIOUS CODING WORK, CONSULTS WITH EXPERTS IN THE RELEVANT COMMUNITY, AND ANALYZES THE FEASIBILITY OF THE GRANT PROPOSAL.
