Sch A, Part IV, 1Those grants given to non-member organizations were given to organizations that follow FTE's mission.
Sch A, Part IV, 4b & 4cFTE had ultimate control of the funds originally granted to Norval United Church in Ontario. However, the person who was to lead the funded program left the Church and began to work at Dublin St. United Church. FTE could have asked for the funds back, but instead it was agreed by all parties that the funds would be transferred to Dublin St. United Church in order to continue the funded program. As the church is a foreign entity it does not have an IRS determination letter, however it would qualify under section 170(b)(1)(A)(i).
