The transition from the old treasurer to myself as treasurer was a drawn out process, as he trained me in this role. I only realized during 2024 that the foundation had investment accounts, and I began the process of obtaining access to those accounts. I reached out to a friend in the financial services industry, and was told there is no penalty for not filing taxes in any certain year as a non profit, only that there is a penalty if you fail to file 3 years in a row, which will result in your revocation as 501(c)(3). Because of this, I assumed there was no urgency in the immediate future to get access to the investment accounts to properly report on our taxes. This was a mistake on my part. I now have the proper access to report those investment accounts, which is why our taxes were filed so late.
