THEN AFTER IT BECOMES A MEMBER MISSION THAT SOCIETY HAS TO RENEW ITS MEMBERSHIP EVERY FIVE YEARS ENSURING THAT IT STILL MEETS MEMBERSHIP REQUIREMENTS. A CONTRIBUTION GIVEN TO THAT SOCIETY IS THEREFORE USED FOR THE PURPOSE THAT STEER INTENDS WHICH IS TO ADVANCE THE WORK OF JESUS CHRIST ON EARTH. THESE SOCIETIES ARE 501(C)(3) ORGANIZATIONS WHICH ISSUE RECEIPTS WHEN THEY RECEIVE CONTRIBUTIONS. THE ACCOUNTING DEPARTMENT CONFIRMS THAT THE FUNDS ARE DESIGNATED ON THE RECEIPT TO THE CORRECT INDIVIDUALS OR PROJECTS. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 2 THE UNIT INVENTORY SYSTEM CHANGED PER THE GENERAL BOARD OF DIRECTORS' DECISION EFFECTIVE ON JULY 1, 2024. THIS CHANGE INCLUDES THE MEASUREMENT FROM UNITS TO THE DOLLAR VALUES AND TO NAME IT THE LEGACY FUND. THE USE OF THE INVENTORY FUNDS FOR THE PURPOSE ORIGINALLY RECEIVED REMAINS UNCHANGED. WITH MANY OF THE UNITS, THE ORIGINAL DONOR HAS PASSED AWAY, OR WE DON'T HAVE AN ADDRESS FOR THEM. THEN WITH THE DONOR'S ORIGINAL INVESTMENT, IT IS NOT ENOUGH TO COVER THE CURRENT COST OF NEW PROJECTS DUE TO INFLATION. THE PLACED AND AVAILABLE UNITS WERE TAKEN AND MADE INTO A LIQUID MUTUAL FUND THAT EVERYONE HAS AN INVESTMENT IN. INSTEAD OF MONTHLY NOTICES ISSUED TO EACH UNIT DONOR BASED ON IF A GAIN OCCURRED FOR THEIR GIVEN UNIT OR UNITS, AS OF JULY 1, 2024, NOTICES ARE SENT TO THE ORIGINAL DONORS WHOM WE HAVE AN ADDRESS FOR ONCE OR TWICE A YEAR UPDATING THEM ON THE OVERALL AMOUNT TO MISSIONS THAT THEIR INVESTMENT HAS HELPED TO GENERATE.
