Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15 The compensation of the Executive Director is reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors using compensation surveys and Form 990 information from similar organizations.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19 The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request. Friends Camp Association of Pennsylvania, Inc. timely obtained an automatic extension for its Form 990 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025. Despite sustained efforts to complete the return by the extended due date of August 17, 2026, unusual organizational demands, constrained administrative capacity, and difficulties encountered during the electronic-filing process prevented timely completion. In addition, the electronic-filing provider reported a communications issue affecting the IRS's receipt of electronically filed returns on August 17, 2026. At 1:00 a.m. Eastern time on August 18, the provider announced that the IRS had corrected the issue and that the backlog of returns was being transmitted. The organization continued its efforts and is filing the return on August 18, 2026, at the earliest practicable opportunity. The organization respectfully requests that the brief delay be treated as due to reasonable cause and that any late-filing penalty be waived.
