positions, the Chamber applies a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold and determines the measurement of uncertain tax positions considering the amounts and probabilities of the outcomes that could be realized upon ultimate settlement with taxing authorities.

The Chamber is generally subject to potential examination by taxing jurisdictions for the prior three years. 0 Community Servings 18 Marbury Terrace Jamaica Plain MA 02130 223154028 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV May 2016 Life Saver Scholar Athletes 57 Magazine St Roxbury MA 02119 273987854 501(c)(3) 10000 FMV Annual Gala Sponsorship John F Kennedy Library Foundation Columbia Point Boston MA 02125 046113130 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Annual Funds Sponsorship Boston Public Library Foundation 700 Boylston St Boston MA 02116 043150560 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Opening Gala 2016 Sponsorship Boston Medical Center 1 Boston Medical Center Place Boston MA 02118 043314093 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Event Contribution Camp Harbor View Foundation 200 Clarendon St 60th Fl Boston MA 02116 753235491 501(c)(3) 15000 FMV Event Contribution College Bound Dorchester 18 Samoset St Dorchester MA 02124 042383512 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Event Contribution YWCA Boston 140 Clarendon St Suite 403 Boston MA 02116 042103548 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Silver Sponsorship Elizabeth Stone House 8 Notre Dame St Roxbury MA 02119 510192418 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Event Sponsorship Children's Trust Fund 55 Court St Boston MA 02108 043123184 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Event Contribution We Are Boston City of Boston Mayors Office Boston City Hall Plaza Boston MA 02201 046001380 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Gala Sponsorship March of Dimes 114 Turnpike Road Suite 202 Westborough MA 01581 131846366 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Annual Gala Sponsorship City Performing Art Center 270 Tremont Street Boston MA 02116 510197209 501(c)(3) 5000 FMV Board Dues Mass Women's Political Caucus 89 South Street 603 Boston MA 02111 042738443 5000 FMV Event Sponsorship Mass Challenge 21 Drydock Ave Boston MA 02210 270382989 501(c)(3) 10000 FMV Event Sponsorship X X X X X X 0 1 0 James E Rooney President & CEO 362145 0 55000 0 24000 0 13889 0 1522 0 456556 0 0 0 Katy O'Neil Exec VP Programs & Leaders 152958 0 95000 0 18000 0 11000 0 23685 0 300643 0 0 0 John Joy Director of Membership Development 111967 0 16300 0 1345 0 1345 0 23685 0 154642 0 0 0 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b Prior to filing the tax return, management sent a copy of the Form 990 to the Organization's Chairman and Treasurer for their inspection and review.
