        <ExplanationTxt>The Organization has been determined by the Internal revenue Service to be a Section 501(c)(3) charitable organization exempt from federal income taxes. Contributions to the Organization are considered tax-deductible under Section 170 of the Internal revenue Code. The organization did not have any unrelated business income for the year ended September 30, 2022. Management has concluded that any tax positions which would not meet the more-likely-than-not criterion of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 740-10, Accounting for Income Taxes, would be immaterial to the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements do not include any provision for uncertain tax positions, and no related interest or penalties have been recorded in the statement of activities and changes in net assets or accrued in the statement of financial position. Federal and state tax returns of the Organization are generally open to examination by the relevant taxing authorities for a period of three years from the date on which the returns are filed.</ExplanationTxt>
