Amended return information The amended Form 990 is being filed to correct an error in the initial determination of the collectability of a pledge receivable. Originally, a pledge of $15,000 was written off as uncollectible as of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024. However, after filing the original Form 990, it was determined that the pledge was, in fact, fully collectible, and the amount was subsequently received from the donor. This amendment reflects the pledge as a collectible asset, reversing the previously recorded write-off of uncollectible pledges receivable by the $15,000 amount. The amended filing is intended to provide accurate financial information regarding the organizations pledges receivable and ensure the integrity of reported financial data on the Form 990.
