Under the Code, however, income from certain activities not related to the organization's tax-exempt purpose may be subject to taxation as unrelated business income. The organization had no income from unrelated business activities in 2022 and was, therefore, not required to file Federal Form 990-T (Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return). The organization believes that it has appropriate support for all tax positions taken, and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements.

In order to be eligible for a grant, the proposed work must align with CSE's mission statement, the group must demonstrate financial need for the proposed work, and the group must be compliant with guidelines for 501c3 activities. All applications are reviewed by a grant selection committee, which determines fit using a pre-determined set of funding priorities which are applied across all granting cycles. Documentation for each grant awarded includes: (1) grantee information and amount disbursed are logged into a secure database; (2) applications are saved to provide a record of the specific activities that were funded; and (3) 501c3 determination letter or a completed W-9 is collected and saved in the grantees' file. Though we do not require a signed grant agreement letter, the grant notification language states that by accepting the funds, groups and individuals agree to: 1) Only spend the funds awarded by CSE toward the activities listed in the grant application; 2) Not spend funds in any way that would jeopardize a 501(c)(3) or Public Charity Status; 3) Contact CSE if changes need to be made to the project, or if funds need to be used for other purposes; 4) Be solely responsible for your programs, staff and volunteers and report of expenses; 5) Communicate with CSE staff about the progress of their work. Pt I Line 2: When we award funding to an entity without 501c3 status, we collect a detailed financial report within two weeks of the project end date, or within 90 days of the awarded grant if there is no specific end date. If groups are not able to provide a financial report within the required period of time, or there is evidence that the funds were not used in conformity with 501c3 requirements, we will request for all awarded funds to be returned to CSE. If checks are not cashed within 90 days, we will cancel the payment, and the corresponding grant award. If funding is awarded to another 501c3 organization, we do not collect financial reports.

Pt VI, Line 12c Enforced as necessary. Any Board Member with a conflict of interest on any specific issue informs the Board and abstains from voting on the issue. Pt VI, Line 15a In the annual budgeting process, the Board approves a budget line for aggregate salary expense. Thereafter, individual salaries and salary increases for all employees are determined by the Board based on assessment of performance and regular assessment of comparable salary information for non-profit organizations with similar budgets. Pt VI, Line 18 Forms 1023 and 990 are available upon request. The Form 990 is also published on Campaign for Southern Equality's website and on GuideStar.
