        <ExplanationTxt>The Rainey Center had no other committees with authority other than its board of directors, therefore, it did not contemporaneously document meetings held or written actions undertaken during the year by committees with authority to act on behalf of the governing body. The Rainey Center began in 2018. As a new and small organization, the sole governing body of the organization was the board of directors, consisting of three people. Going forward, as committees with authority to act on behalf of the board of directors are created, their meetings and written actions will be contemporaneously documented.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>The Rainey Center reviews the Form 990 by having both the CEO and Board of Directors review the 990 before it is submitted. The CEO sends the 990 to the board of directors asking them for their reviews and comments. They have 24 hours to respond, confirming that they have reviewed the 990 and send any comments, if any, about the 990. At a minimum, they are asked to confirm receipt of the email with the 990 for review. If there are any comments, these will be addressed and sent back to them to finalize before submission.</ExplanationTxt>
