In addition, Avenues qualifies for the charitable contribution deduction under Section 170(b)(1)(A) and has been classified as an organization other than a private foundation under IRC Section 509(a). In evaluating the Organization's activities, management believes its position of tax-exempt status is based on current facts and circumstances and there have been no uncertain positions taken related to recording income taxes. In the opinion of management there are no activities unrelated to the purpose of the Organization and therefore no tax is to be recognized.
