General explanation attachment Schedule A, Part II, Section A, Line 5:Explanation of changes in how this figure is calculated. In preparation of the 2021 return, it was discovered that in prior years, all cash donations have been considered in the calculation of this figure, even though some were large, one time and/or directed for a specific reason. In retrospect many of the large donations should be considered unusual grants for the purposes of calculating Line 5 and thus the percentage of public support (Section C, line 14). We do not feel the change is significant enough to amend prior year filings.Calculations for years 2017-2021 have been documented for the organizations records andavailable for inspection upon request.
