Coming out of COVID was challenging, but we were the second largest participation organization in the Brandon Recreation Department (outside of organized league sports) for the past year. We reached well over 20 participants in our 4000 person town, with over 70 individual registrations over the year. 0 X 0 0 Wade C Davis Director, Founder, Head Instructor 8 0 0 0 Christina Davis Director, Founder 0 0 0 0 Eli S Rosenberg Founder 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 VT Wade C Davis 20 E Prospect St Brandon VT 05733 8029894738 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 NONE NONE 1 X 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 Schedule E, Part I, Line 3 Line of non descrimination at the bottom of our Member agreement, flyers and posters, etc. Schedule E, Part I, Line 4 We are, to simplify, a martial arts school. We admit anyone, regardless of ability to pay, but keep no self-reported or organization-assumed records of students race, gender, creed, or religion. The only information we keep is the start date and birth date of participants for rank purposes. Byodo literally means Equality. We are an organization founded on the principle that anyone and everyone should have access to high quality Aikido classes. Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 20 Monies paid in through Brandon Recreation Department tend to run 2 to 8 months behind. Only then can independent contractor fees be paid. This has never been an issue, as organizations of this tiny size have never been asked to keep records of this detail in filings with the IRS. As of the fall of 2024, the State of Vermont has added additional requirements on 501(c)3 organizations, including quarterly filing, with deadlines that incur excessive penalties. We have been working -- and generally failing -- to file with them. When it came around to bi-ennial federal filing, the former processes (which were easy and took 5 minutes) were suddenly replaced by an array of private options, with no guidance as to how to proceed. I have tried to file following old links and nothing is what it was in 2022. Add to that the constant barrage of email claiming to be the IRS or EZpass or a creditor or debtor and it's been hard to nail down how to actually file this time around, without getting swindled. (I'm worried even as I finish submitting this form.)
