D. Mack Foundation's mission of improving the quality of life through improving the awareness of the impact of dementia and schizophrenia in communities. Through its work, the foundation serves to bridge the gaps in dementia and schizophrenia health services while also furthering entrepreneurial development skills that will aide in creating income, opportunity, and economic growth. Focused on the increased awareness of the impact of dementia and schizophrenia, the Foundation strives to break down the stigma that is often associated with these types of mental illnesses. The KD Mack Foundation did not participate in any activities this year due to the circumstances. 0 0 0 Keith McMillian Director 0 0 0 0 Mark Roth Board Member 0 0 0 0 Michael Ezel Secretary 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 MS Keith Lamont McMillian 3851 Nichols Blvd Jackson MS 39212 6014976175 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 633 1800 0 0 0 2433 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 633 1800 0 0 0 2433 2433 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2433 0 1 1 X I am writing to respectfully provide context regarding the delayed filing of the K D Mack Foundation's 2024 Form 990, and to share the challenges our organization has faced over the past two years. This delay was primarily the result of significant personal and operational disruptions. During the filing period, our Founding Director was deeply engaged in caring for a critically ill parent, and in April 2023, endured the heartbreaking loss of his eldest brother to cancer. These events understandably diverted attention from administrative obligations. Compounding these personal hardships, the building housing our office at 4101 Northview Dr, Suite C9, Jackson, Mississippi, was sold by the landlord later that year, forcing us to vacate and temporarily relocate operations to the Director's home. During this transition, programming was suspended entirely. In early 2024, our Executive Director began pursuing a career change and accepted a position with a new company in another state during the second quarter. This shift, along with prior disruptions, led to a decline in financial resources and limited our ability to meet programming goals. In addition to these challenges, we have recently been informed that the State of Mississippi is pursuing a penalty of nearly $1,100 due to the delayed filing. Given the circumstances outlined above, this financial burden presents an undue hardship for our organization, which is still in the process of recovery and restructuring. Despite these setbacks, we remain steadfast in our mission. We have regrouped and are actively working to restore operations and re-engage with the community. Our focus continues to be on providing essential services in mental health support, entrepreneurship, and public engagement. We sincerely apologize for the delay and respectfully submit this explanation as reasonable cause for the late submission. We are committed to full compliance moving forward and hope that you will consider the totality of these circumstances in your review. Thank you for your understanding and continued support. We remain dedicated to serving our community and look forward to rebuilding with renewed purpose. Warm regards, Keith Lamont McMillian Director K D Mack Foundation
