      <PrimaryExemptPurposeTxt>Sudden Losses Inc. is headquartered in Washington, DC, and Los Angeles. We maintain a nationwide database of donated gravesites, which we gift to families who need assistance burying their loved ones. We do not have "funds" to provide "financial assistance" ... but we can often transfer ownership of a plot (at a selected cemetery) for a grieving family who is in need. While providing a plot will save each family SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS ... it does not eliminate all costs associated with burial. Our gravesite inventory changes constantly. Although we do our best to offer families a desired cemetery location -- it is not always available at the time of need. We rely entirely upon individuals (and other foundations) in various communities to donate gravesites to us, and continuously replenish our inventory. Anyone donating a plot receives a receipt for the Fair Market Value of the plot. SL gives counseling to families about the processes of interacting with funeral homes and cemeteries.</PrimaryExemptPurposeTxt>
      <ProgramSrvcAccomplishmentGrp>
        <DescriptionProgramSrvcAccomTxt>SL made burial plot awards to four separate families totaling $22,990, to bury their family member. Death is a very difficult part of life that we all have to face from time to time. In a bittersweet way, it is a good feeling to be able to assist these families in their time of need.</DescriptionProgramSrvcAccomTxt>

      <ExplanationTxt>Tax year 2022 was the first year that Sudden Losses Inc (SL) exceeded the threshold for filing the postcard return. SL initially prepared and submitted a paper 990 EZ tax return on October 16, 2023, only to have it returned during August 2024. The re-submission was further delayed as the Treasurer had to locate a local IRS approved tax preparer, while dealing with two cases of cancer in the family. So with humility, please accept my apologies for the delay, and hopefully, waive any penalties for the late filing. The SL tax returns for future years will be filed timely.</ExplanationTxt>
