Part VI, Line 11a Part VI Line 11a: WE WILL REVIEW AT BOARD MEETING Part XI, Line 9 | Description:, Explanation:, Amount:| PART XI LINE 8 ADJUSTMENT: The adjustment of negative $118,188 reported on Part XI Line 9 reflects the implementation of a formal in-kind donation recognition policy in 2024 and the resulting reconciliation of cumulative balances. While the organization may have tracked some in-kind goods in prior years there was no standardized or documented method for valuing or recording them consistently across all programs. In 2024 BeMoreCaring established a formal system to log value and categorize in-kind donations-such as food clothing hygiene supplies and tents-based on fair market value at the time of receipt. As part of this policy improvement we performed a review and cleanup of historical data in our accounting system QuickBooks to remove duplications reclassify misallocated entries and ensure alignment between our internal books and financial reporting. These adjustments caused a net decrease in cumulative balances reported on the return. This change is not the result of a change in accounting principles or a restatement of prior-year errors but rather the result of implementing improved internal controls donation management and bookkeeping practices. The organization continues to enhance its financial transparency and accountability as it grows., Implemented formal in-kind donation policy and corrected cumulative tracking variances, $-188188| PART 111 LINE 4AThis expense represents the core mission of BeMoreCaring: mobile outreach to individuals experiencing homelessness. Services include consistent distribution of meals hygiene supplies survival gear tents blankets clothing and relational support. The reported amount includes both cash expenses and in-kind donations such as donated food clothing and supplies., Weekly Mobile Outreach Programs including In-kind donations, $141240| PART 111 LINE 4BBeMoreCaring distributes protein-rich emergency weekender bags on Fridays to ensure that individuals who do not have access to other services over the weekend receive sustenance and support. These bags are especially critical when other nonprofits are unavailable or operating at limited capacity., Weekend Emergency Bag Program, $10000| PART 111 LINE 4C This category includes expenses related to engaging volunteers particularly individuals in recovery in meaningful service roles. It also covers operational costs for the resource warehouse and thrift area which provides donated goods to both recovery clients and low-income families at no cost., Recovery Thrift resource center and Volunteer Support, $12413| PART 111 LINE 4DThis seasonal program supports families and children in need during the holidays with donated gifts winter gear and essentials. Funds were used for organizing wrapping and delivering these items through our mobile outreach and community events., Other: Christmas for Children and Holiday Giving, $6979| PART X LINE 27 In 2024 BeMoreCaring implemented a standardized in-kind donation policy and reconciled previous inconsistencies in recognition practices. The $10,083 adjustment reflects the one-time correction of prior-year entries and improved accounting alignment with internal QuickBooks records. This change was not a program loss but a reconciliation for accurate reporting going forward., Adjustment for corrected in-kind recognition and reconciliation of prior-year entries., $15772| LINE XI LINE 9BeMoreCaring completed a reconciliation of in-kind donation records and corrected prior-year misclassified transactions that were not previously aligned with QuickBooks. These were non-cash in-kind donations and the organization implemented a consistent valuation and classification method for donated goods including food clothing and hygiene supplies. The adjustment resulted in a one-time change to better reflect actual donation activity in the reporting period. This is not indicative of a change in accounting method or a restatement of prior-period errors but rather a refinement in financial recordkeeping and improved transparency. The organization continues to prioritize accuracy and integrity in financial reporting., One-time adjustment for in-kind reconciliation and internal record correction., $12269| PART XI LINE 9 Line Reinstated reconciliation balance from prior review This $8,899 entry reflects the reinstatement of a final in-kind donation reconciliation amount previously removed in error. It aligns with updated record keeping practices and brings total net asset adjustments in balance with financial statements., Adjustment: Final reconciliation from prior preview, $8899| Part XI General | Explanation:| Line 8 includes prior period adjustments resulting from timing corrections for grant revenue expenses and account reconcilations from previous fiscal years primarily related to 2021. These adjustments were necessary to align Quickbooks balances with organizations financial position. While the exact source of all discrepancies is not isolated to a single transaction or year the adjustment was required. No adjustments were related to fraud or misuse.
