Reasonable Cause Explanation ReasonableCauseExplanation

FieldValueIRS element (for citing)
ExplanationCovid-19 severely impacted our operations in 2020 and 2021, and as such we were faced with nearly insurmountable issues related to keeping our doors open and surviving as a non-profit organization. As such, many clerical, correspondence, and office related activities were put on hold until recently. We are now trying to catch up on these tasks, including the filing of this Form 990-EZ.ExplanationTxt
