This is the tax-exempt purpose of the organization. The solution that Know Learning has identified is: to create a high quality platform for the 'behind the scenes' aspects of educational tool development for educators to use to drive down the cost of developing new online educational content and and to develop an open-source, collaborative authorship experience with the goal of increasing participation in the creation of educational content. By creating more content, and creating it collaboratively, Know Learning's founders hope that the quality of materials will improve, benefiting educators and learners alike. Configured a cloud-based hosting solution and built a back-end development stack solution for free educational content developed by professors and educational experts working in association with the United Nations' Office of Economic Development. This has benefited approximately 3,800 people so far. Specific tasks in 2021: 1. Configuring a cloud-based hosting solution for the OECD's educational tools; 2. Building a back-end development stack solution, including a database to collect and store the data from assessment applications and teacher account data that considers data privacy regulations (e.g. OECD, GDPR); 3. Designing and building a solution to ensure the assessment tasks and units can be fully integrated into the back-end structure 4.

The accounting software we use does not have online filing available so we thought that we shoudl file a paper file. We searched online for "file a paper 990-EZ" and ended up on the IRS webpage. That page didn't say that paper filing is no longer allowed so we submitted a paper file in March 2022. Earlier this month (November 2022,) we got a letter from the IRS telling us that we have to file online. Once we got that, we researched how and are filing late now. We are sorry for the late filing and will be on time in future years now that we know about this new law. If you have any questions or would like additional details, please contact me, Matthew McClain, at 773-817-3044. Thanks.
