In 2023, Shasta Spotlight focused on establishing the foundation for its mission by completing key organizational and legal requirements. During this period, the organization: -Finalized its Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws to ensure compliance with nonprofit regulations. -Selected and appointed board members to oversee governance and strategic direction. -Completed necessary filings and paperwork to obtain 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status. As this was the organization's initial filing year, no operational activities took place. Shasta Spotlight is now positioned to begin full operations in the upcoming year to fulfill its mission of supporting small businesses, entrepreneurs, and community organizations in Shasta County. 0 0 0 Abigail Peterson President 1 0 0 0 Jared Hartzell CFO 1 0 0 0 Kati Maier Secretary 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 CA Abigail Peterson 1420 Butte St Redding CA 96001 5304206655 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 0 0 0 0 83 83 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 83 83 0 83 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 83 0 X Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Corporation Filing with California Secretary of State Website Shasta Spotlight's late filing was due to the organization's initial establishment process. As a newly formed nonprofit, the organization spent the filing year completing essential steps to obtain its 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status, including finalizing its Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, and board selection. These foundational requirements delayed the completion of the first Form 990-EZ filing. The delay was not due to willful neglect but rather the time required to ensure compliance with state and federal nonprofit regulations. Now that the organization is fully established, all future filings will be completed on time.
