Reasonable Cause Explanation ReasonableCauseExplanation

FieldValueIRS element (for citing)
ExplanationReasonable Cause Explanation for Late Filing of 990 return for Five Pillars Foundation Inc: Date 6/2/2025 Dear Officer In-Charge, We respectfully request abatement of any penalties if any gets imposed associated with the late filing of our Form 990 for the year ending December 31 2024. Due to unforeseen circumstances, our organization was unable to file the return by the due date and did not file for an extension. Specifically, the organization???s Secretary, who was responsible for overseeing tax compliance and communications with our accountant, encountered unexpected personal issues during the critical filing period. As a result, the return was not filed, and the extension request was inadvertently missed. Once the oversight was discovered, we took immediate steps to complete and file the return and implement internal controls to ensure future compliance, including assigning a secondary officer to monitor compliance deadlines and setting up calendar reminders. The omission was not due to willful neglect, and the organization has a consistent history of timely filings in previous years. We respectfully request that the IRS consider our explanation as reasonable cause and waive the associated penalties. Respectfully, Munem Hossain Secretary Five Pillars Foundation Inc.ExplanationTxt
