| Explanation | The organization recently discovered that its 2024 Form 990-EZ had not been filed due to an oversight during a transition in financial administration and reliance on an outside accountant. Upon discovering the omission the organization promptly gathered the necessary records and is voluntarily filing the return. The organization is a small volunteer-run nonprofit with no employees and all financial activity has been fully documented. | ExplanationTxt |
