Our organization has recently experienced a significant increase in its operational activities, which resulted in an unexpectedly heavy workload for our limited resources. Furthermore, during the same period, our organization faced an unfortunate and challenging situation as our founder was diagnosed with cancer. This unexpected health crisis has had a profound impact on our organizational structure and daily operations. As a small organization heavily reliant on our founder's involvement, this situation led to disruptions in our usual processes. Due to these combined challenges of increased workload and the health battle our founder is undergoing, we regrettably faced difficulties in allocating sufficient time and resources to complete the necessary paperwork for the 990EZ filing by the original deadline. We are fully committed to meeting our obligations and ensuring timely compliance with reporting requirements in the future. We have taken steps to address these challenges and implement measures to prevent similar delays in the future. We understand the importance of accurate and timely reporting and are actively working to improve our internal processes. We kindly request your understanding and consideration of the extenuating circumstances we have encountered. We are dedicated to rectifying this situation and ensuring that future filings are submitted in a timely manner. If you require any additional documentation or information to support our explanation, please do not hesitate to contact us. We appreciate your understanding and the opportunity to address this matter. Sincerely, Suzette Brown
