Under ASC 740, RAN is required to report information regarding its exposure to various tax positions taken by RAN and requires a two-step process that separates recognition from measurement. The first step is determining whether a tax position has met the recognition threshold; the second step is measuring a tax position that meets the recognition threshold. Management believes that RAN has adequately evaluated its current tax positions and has concluded that as of June 30, 2023, RAN does not have any uncertain tax positions for which a reserve or an accrual for a tax liability would be necessary.RAN has received notification from the Internal Revenue Service and the State of California that it qualifies for tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and Section 23701d of the California Revenue and Taxation Code. The exemptions are subject to periodic review by the federal and state taxing authorities and management is confident that RAN continues to satisfy all federal and state statutes in order to qualify for continued tax exemption status. RAN may periodically receive unrelated business income requiring RAN to file separate tax returns under federal and state statutes. Under such conditions, RAN will calculate, accrue and remit the applicable taxes. true East Asia & Pacific 15 20 Environmental protection Campaigning on forest issues 325537 South America 10 15 Environmental Protection Campaigning on forest issues 98700 North America 1 3 Environmental Protection Campaigning on forest issues 15500 Europe 1 2 Environmental Protection Campaigning - Forests & Financ 3600 27 40 27 40 443337 443337 East Asia & Pac Support 325537 wire trans Europe Support 3600 Wire trans North America Support 15500 Wire Trans South America Support 98700 Wire trans 32 false false false false false false Part I, Line 2 - Grantmakers Explanation For Monitoring Use of Funds Outside US RAN actively seeks out and engages external parties which are closely aligned with the organization's exempt purpose. Grant applicants are invited to submit a formal proposal with supporting materials. This data is reviewed and scrutinized by internal staff, which then prepares a summary report and recommendation for consideration to a sub-committee of the Board of Directors. At regular intervals, members of the Board of Directors meet to discuss and review all such funding requests. After approval, the various grant commitments and authorization for funding are routed to the appropriate RAN staff members. Grantees are communicated with by the small grants manager to provide updates and activities and submit a final report on the grant activities within 1 year of receiving the grant. RAN campaign staff and intermediary organizations have close relationships with the grantees and in most cases are able to perform filed visits to monitor grant activities.

RAN campaigns deploy several key tactics, including: high-profile, direct communication; organizing and peaceful direct actions; coordinated media and social media campaigns; incisive research and hard-hitting reports; collaborative partnerships; high-level corporate engagement and negotiations and relentless follow-up to ensure that promises are kept. Fossil fuels and deforestation are two of the biggest drivers of climate change. Extracting and burning fossil fuels and destroying forests are also often preceded by, and leave behind, a wake of catastrophic human rights violations. At RAN, we believe that ensuring that rights are respected is a core pillar of addressing climate change. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b Form 990 is prepared by an outside tax professional.

RAN has been working with local communities for decades to stop profit driven industries like palm oil and pulp and paper from destroying rainforests, violating human rights, land grabbing, and pushing species to extinction through the destruction of their habitats. RAN educates our community, mobilizes support and organizes efforts to reduce market demand for environmentally and socially irresponsible products in order to transform global supply chains.
