        <ExplanationTxt>THE ORGANIZATION IS A QUALIFIED NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATION AND IS EXEMPT FROM INCOME TAXES UNDER INTERNAL REVENUE CODE 501(C)(6). WITH FEW EXCEPTIONS, THE ORGANIZATION IS NO LONGER SUBJECT TO FEDERAL OR STATE EXAMINATIONS BY TAX AUTHORITIES FOR THE YEARS BEFORE 2020. ANY INTEREST AND PENALTIES ASSESSED BY INCOME TAXING AUTHORITIES ARE NOT SIGNIFICANT AND ARE INCLUDED IN GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES IN THESE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS APPLICABLE. THE ACCOUNTING STANDARD ON ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES ADDRESSES THE DETERMINATION OF WHETHER TAX BENEFITS CLAIMED OR EXPECTED TO BE CLAIMED ON A TAX RETURN SHOULD BE RECORDED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. UNDER THIS GUIDANCE, THE ORGANIZATION MAY RECOGNIZE THE TAX BENEFIT FROM AN UNCERTAIN TAX POSITION ONLY IF IT IS MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THAT THE TAX POSITION WILL BE SUSTAINED ON EXAMINATION BY TAXING AUTHORITIES, BASED ON THE TECHNICAL MERITS OF THE POSITION. THERE WERE NO UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFITS IDENTIFIED OR RECORDED AS LIABILITIES FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022.</ExplanationTxt>
