ACTA has been classified as an entity that is not a private foundation within the meaning of Section 509(a) and qualifies for deductible contributions as provided in Section 170(b)(1)(A)(vi).Generally accepted accounting principles provide accounting and disclosures guidance about positions taken by an entity in its tax returns that might be uncertain. Management has considered its tax positions and believes that all of the positions taken in its federal and state exempt organization tax returns are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. ACTAs returns are subject to examination byfederal and state taxing authorities, generally for three to four years, respectively, after they are filed. true Surdna Foundation 330 Madison Ave 30th Floor New York NY 10017 50000 0 Walter & Elise Haas Fund One Lombard Street Suite 305 San Francisco CA 94111 52500 0 Walter & Flora Hewlett Found 2121 Sand Hill Road Menlo Park CA 94025 102500 0 0 3 Grantmaker's Description of How Grants are Used The Organization received requests for funds from applicants via written requests based on criteria established in its published guidelines.
