Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements. In addition, the Internal Revenue Service has determined that RSP is not a "private foundation" within the meaning of Section 509(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.Management evaluates the likelihood of changes by taxing authorities in its filed tax returns and recognizes a liability for, or discloses uncertain tax positions it is more likely than not for a change to occur, including changes to RSP's status as a not-for-profit entity. Management believes RSP met the requirements to maintain its tax-exempt status and has no income subject to unrelated business income tax; therefore, no provision for income taxes has been provided in these financial statements. RSP's tax returns for the past three years are subject to examination by tax authorities and may change upon examination. true Rwanda 1 40 Schools School based service 237000 1 40 1 40 237000 237000 false false false false false false Part I, Line 2 - Grantmakers Explanation For Monitoring Use of Funds Outside US Documentation of all monies spent are sent to the treasurer on a monthly basis and reconciled.
