There was no intention to be late. The President manages all aspects of the organizations operations and has been dealing with several significant health issues resulting in multiple surgeries and loss of complete use of one arm this has resulted in time away from the business. As the donees and the programs are the most important components of a non-profits life-cycle, the financial management took a back seat since time during healthy periods was so limited. Currently still working towards getting everything beyond the program needs addressed and planning on filing timely in for 2023.
