INVESTMENT EARNINGS ARE TO BE USED FOR DISTRIBUTIONS TO MEMBERS Part X : FIN48 Footnote The Fund is exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and application of state law. The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under that guidance, the Fund may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of the entities and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income (UBIT). The Fund was not subject to UBIT for the year ended.The Fund files form 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction. The entity is generally no longer subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service three years after the forms were filed. true AVILA UNIVERSITY 11901 WORNALL ROAD KANSAS CITY MO 64145 440617326 34587 0 NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID CENTRAL METHODIST UNIVERSITY 411 CENTRAL METHODIST SQUARE FAYETTE MO 65248 430654854 29154 0 NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID COLUMBIA COLLEGE 1001 ROGERS STREET COLUMBIA MO 65216 430655867 29346 0 NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID CULVER-STOCKTON COLLEGE ONE COLLEGE HILL CANTON MO 63435 430610813 25346 0 NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID DRURY UNIVERSITY 900 BENTON AVENUE SPRINGFIELD MO 65802 440552049 24587 0 NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID EVANGEL UNIVERSITY 1111 N GLENSTONE SPRINGFIELD MO 65802 440589787 23204 0 NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID FONTBONNE UNIVERSITY 6800 WYDOWN BOULEVARD ST LOUIS MO 63105 430694556 32096 0 NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID HANNIBAL-LAGRANGE COLLEGE 2800 PALMYRA ROAD HANNIBAL MO 63401 431007642 28346 0 NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID LINDENWOOD UNIVERSITY 209 S KINGSHIGHWAY ST CHARLES MO 63301 430652649 34096 0 NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID MARYVILLE UNIVERSITY 650 MARYVILLE UNIVERSITY DR ST LOUIS MO 63141 430653369 37746 0 NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID MISSOURI BAPTIST UNIVERSITY ONE COLLEGE PARK DRIVE ST LOUIS MO 63141 430817015 32996 0 NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID PARK UNIVERSITY 8700 RIVER PARK DRIVE PARKVILLE MO 64152 440562048 30921 0 NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID ROCKHURST UNIVERSITY 1100 ROCKHURST ROAD KANSAS CITY MO 64110 440545813 31012 0 NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID SOUTHWEST BAPTIST UNIVERSITY 1601 S SPRINGFIELD BOLIVAR MO 65613 440567385 26937 0 NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID WESTMINSTER COLLEGE 501 WESTMINSTER AVENUE FULTON MO 65251 430652617 34059 0 NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID WILLIAM JEWEL COLLEGE 500 COLLEGE HILL LIBERTY MO 64068 440545914 33421 0 NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID WILLIAM WOODS UNIVERSITY ONE UNIVERSITY AVENUE FULTON MO 65251 430654876 27270 0 NEED BASED FINANCIAL AID 17 0 Grantmaker's Description of How Grants are Used ALL MEMBER COLLEGES RECEIVING DISTRIBUTIONS HAVE A MEMBER ON THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS.
