Under the Code, however, income from certain activities not related to an organizations tax-exempt purpose may be subject to taxation as unrelated business income. FENCE had no income from unrelated business activities during the 2023 fiscal year and was, therefore, not required to file Federal Form 990-T (Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return). FENCE 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. Pt V, Line 4 FENCE has Board designated endowments at the two community foundations. According to the Foundations endowment fund policy statement, the foundations provide the following benefits and services for the FENCE funds: Pt V, Line 4 1.

Management and investment policies which provide the best opportunity for enhancing long-term growth of the endowments, as well as providing annual cash distributions to support the organization. Pt V, Line 4 3. Investment and distribution policies which emphasize the preservation of capital, protection against inflation, and a continuing source of income to ensure that the funds will always be available to support the organization.
