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 Dimensions Dance Theatre Inc 1428 Alice St 308 Oakland CA 94612 237279914 10000 0 Living Cultures Program Regional Org of Oaxaca 2119 Crenshaw Blvd Los Angeles CA 90016 954713953 10000 0 Living Cultures Program 1 1 Apprenticeships 17 51000 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.
