As such, we had various life events which impacted our board, both individually and as an organization. The culmination of the foregoing events is the sole reason for the delay in filing the organization's 2022 taxes in a timely manner. We pray for your understanding and not impose any penalty for the delayed filing. Our organization was granted non-profit status in early 2022 In the fall of 2022, the head coach's mother became gravely ill. He continued to coach during this time, but the pressure of coaching and his mother's illness began to take a toll on his handling of the team During the season he had several mental health breakdowns which occurred in the presence of the student athletes. The coach made statements to several student athletes which had a negative impact on their participation. Our treasurer's son was affected by the coaches' actions, but continued to serve on our board and assist. This coach left the organization in February of 2023. However, the tension and strife during this period with him and the school itself, parents & student athletes affected our ability to focus on our tax obligation. Other examples include: On September 24, 2022, our Treasurer, Primalynn Hollis' daughter was the victim of a hit and run traffic collision, see Exhibit "1". She was dealing with both her son having issues with the head coach and now her daughter's injuries from the collision. These life events affected her ability to comply with our organizations tax obligation. On December 30, 2022, our Vice President, Gabriel Alba, lost his son to a heart attack, please see Exhibit "2". This was a difficult time for our organization. Gabe was assisting his family in putting the pieces of their life back together after his son's passing and he was unable to assist in complying with our tax obligation. Knowing this, in April we filed an extension for our organization given these life events. Additionally, I was diagnosed with endometriosis. My symptoms consisted of severe, debilitating persistent bleeding. The pain and weakness I experienced left me unable to work on our tax obligation. That was not the end of my medical issues during this time. In January of 2024, I underwent a hysterectomy, see attached Exhibit "3". During the hysterectomy I was informed I had a groin hernia and an umbilical hernia which required an additional surgery. On July 3, 2024, I underwent surgery to repair both hernias, see Exhibit "4". After a few weeks of recovery, I was able to start assisting the board with preparation of our taxes for both 2022 & 2023. In August 2023 our community was hit by Hurricane Hilary, which devasted our community. The hurricane destroyed bridges, flooded homes and left many residents with no electricity. Clean-up efforts in the area went on for months and our attention again was taken from our obligation to prepare our taxes to helping our community. Almost a year later our overpass near my own home is still not open which complicates travel On April 18, 2024, board member Primalyn's son Greg Hollis III was hit by a drunk driver and his vehicle was completely totaled. Primalyn's attention was then redirected to care for her son and deal with the criminal investigation. No report is available since it's still under investigation. As our treasurer this greatly impacted on our ability to file timely as she was taking care of her family. In May 2024 we had 3 resignations on our board, Gabriel Alba (vice president, Primalyn Hollis (treasurer) and Lynsey Bloch (secretary). We have been able to fill those vacancies and this new board will be determined to take care of our tax liability and continue to serve at risk youth in our community. Each of us works full time and dedicates numerous hours to help assist at risk youth in our community. All of these life events affected our organization, and we were unable comply with our tax reporting obligation timely. We are hopeful that this letter sheds light on the reasoning behind the inadvertent failure to report and consider all of this when deciding whether or not to impose any penalties or interest. All the Best, Karina Cardenas Orlando President SHHS Football Boosters
