The AFPLF had no income from unrelated activities and has no income taxes due as of December 31, 2024.The AFPLFs application of ASC 740 regarding uncertain tax positions had no effect on its financial position as management believes the AFPLF has no material unrecognized income tax benefits, including any potential risk of loss of its not-for-profit tax status. The AFPLF would account for any potential interest or penalties related to possible future liabilities for unrecognized income tax benefits as income tax expense. The AFPLF is no longer subject to examination by federal, state or local tax authorities for periods before 2021. false FULTON COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRARY ONE MARGARET MITCHELL SQUARE ATLANTA GA 30303 588001729 501(C)(3) 224133 0 SUPPORT ORGANIZATION 1 0 Form 990, Part III, Line 2 CAREER ONLINE HIGH SCHOOL - THIS PILOT PROGRAM WAS LAUNCHED IN 2024 AT A COST OF $18,404.78, WITH SCHOLARSHIPS TO 12 INITIAL INDIVIDUALS.
