Below, we provide an explanation of the reasonable cause for the late filing:1. Lack of KnowledgeThe Foundation is a newly established private foundation, and its board of directors consists of volunteers who generously dedicate their time to fulfilling the organization's mission. Unfortunately, the board was unaware of the requirement to file Form 990-PF and lacked experience with nonprofit compliance matters.2. Efforts to ComplyThe board of directors made a good-faith effort to comply with federal tax requirements by consulting with legal counsel during the formation of the organization and transitioning to a new CPA firm with knowledge of nonprofit compliance matters. However, due to delays in obtaining necessary financial information and understanding filing requirements, the Form 990-PF was not submitted by the required deadline. The Foundation has not been funded as of the date of filing the Form 990-PF.3. Corrective Actions TakenUpon discovering the oversight, the organization acted promptly to rectify the situation. Specifically, we hired a CPA firm, set up internal filing deadline monitoring procedures, and have trained board members on compliance matters. These measures will ensure all future filings are completed accurately and on time.We respectfully request that the IRS abate the penalties associated with this late filing under reasonable cause provisions. We have taken significant steps to prevent similar issues from occurring in the future and are committed to fulfilling all compliance requirements as a private foundation.Thank you for your understanding and consideration of this request. Please do not hesitate to contact us at the Foundation if additional information or documentation is needed.
