Income generated from activities unrelated to the Organizations exempt purposes is subject to tax under IRC Section 511. The Organization had no unrelated business income for the year ended March 31, 2025. Accordingly, no provision or liability has been reported.Generally Accepted Accounting Principles require the evaluation of tax positions taken in the course of preparing the Organizations tax return and recognition of a tax liability (or asset) if the Organization has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Management has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Organization and has concluded that as of March 31, 2025, there are no uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements. false GOLF 65525 54318 11207 750 10457 11800 1848 65525 54318 11207 750 10457 11800 1848 24855 -13648 true 0 0 HOLIDAY FOOD PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS 675 23371 COST HOLIDAY GROCERIES DIRECT AID TO CLIENTS 10 285 COST CLIENT ASSISTANCE WITH GAS CARDS DIRECT AID TO CLIENTS-IN-KIND 18363 416452 COST MEALS AND SNACKS SERVED AT CENTERS FIELDTRIP FOR CHILDCARE PROGRAM 75 175 COST FIELDTRIP ASSISTANCE Grantmaker's Description of How Grants are Used UCC MONITORS ITS NON-CASH ASSISTANCE PROGRAM THROUGH ITS APPLICATION PROCESS.
