Our return was due November 15, 2025, but was filed after that date. The delay was due to circumstances beyond our control. Our treasurer, Sherry Holloway, who is responsible for preparing and submitting our annual return, is also the primary caregiver for her elderly father. During this period, she became overwhelmed with daily caregiving responsibilities and life tasks, which caused an unintended delay in completing the filing. Once the issue was identified, we acted promptly to finalize and submit the return. Southern Star Animal Rescue is a small, community-based nonprofit dedicated to rescuing and rehoming animals in Riverside County. As an all-volunteer organization, we rely on limited resources and strive to maintain compliance with all federal and state regulations. This was an isolated incident, and we have implemented new procedures to ensure timely filing in the future, including engaging outside professional assistance and establishing a board-level compliance calendar. We respectfully request that the IRS waive any penalties associated with this late filing, as our failure to file timely was due to reasonable cause and not willful neglect. Thank you for your consideration.
