| Explanation | (1) The organization periodically conducts alumni and donor engagement events in furtherance of its fundraising and relationship-development activities. One such event was held in November 2025, for which expenses totaling $349.42 included space reservation and food purchases. (2) In March 2025, a check of $4229.70 was disbursed as a grant to fund an intellectual retreat that took place in December 2024 (described elsewhere in this filing). The wrong address was initially used, and despite efforts to cancel and subsequently to reverse the check through the bank, the check was deposited by someone other than the intended recipient. | ExplanationTxt |
