We acknowledge the late submission and sincerely regret the oversight. The delay was due to turnover in our officer positions and a miscommunication with the Form 990 preparer that we previously used. Our previous preparer retired and is no longer a licensed CPA. We are submitting this return without a paid preparer. The situation was beyond our control and not due to willful neglect. Upon discovering the error, we took immediate action to correct the situation and have implemented internal procedures to ensure future filings will be timely. As a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing educational experiences for children, we rely heavily on our limited resources to fulfill our mission. The imposition of this penalty presents a significant financial burden and directly impacts our ability to serve the community. We respectfully request that the IRS consider abating the penalties under the reasonable cause provisions of Internal Revenue Code section 6652(c), or under the First-Time Abatement (FTA) policy, if applicable. Please let us know if you require any additional documentation to support this request. Thank you for your time and consideration.
