CHLBF then affiliated itself with the Long Beach Community Foundation ("LBCF") which supports community-minded organizations in a unified effort to reduce costs and duplication of efforts.The intention was to elicit all donations and grant requests through LBCF but that organization only updates its website to include new members annually and that meant CHLBF went the entire 2024 without much of a public presence.CHLBF is now included on LBCF's website for both contributions and grant requests, and has already received grants and funded requests, but not until calendar year 2025. CHLBF will begin its fund raising efforts now that it has an online and public presence. 1092 1092 3082700 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b DESCRIBE THE PROCESS USED BY THE ORGANIZATION TO REVIEW FORM 990A draft Form 990 is reviewed by the Audit Committee.

Form 990, Part XI, Line 9 Permanently Restricted Funds Restored to CHLBF = $100000 Form 990, Part XI, Line 9 Restored Funds Held by Long Beach Community Foundation = $1666901 Form 990, Part XI, Line 9 Temporarily Restricted Funds Restored to CHLBF = $1005925 Statement Note 1 STATEMENT CONCERNING CHANGES TO FUND BALANCE:Community Hospital Long Beach Foundation ("CHLBF"), during 2023, had transferred all of its investment funds held in a Charles Schwab brokerage account to Long Beach Community Foundation ("LBCF"), a 501c3 organization. The intent was that LBCF would pool and manage the funds and that arrangement has continued very successfully to the present.CHLBF erroneously treated the funds transfer as a charitable contribution to LBCF during 2023 but should have retained the funds on its books and records. Once the error was discovered during 2024, the funds were then restored to and reported on CHLBF's books. The erroneous thinking was that CHLBF was transferring ownership to LBCF when, in fact, CHLBF still maintains ownership and directs the use of the funds even today, but has agreed on how the funds are managed by LBCF.This restoration of funds matches CHLBF's Board of Directors original intent that LBCF manage the funds instead of a broker, and that CHLBF retain ownership of the funds and report all activities on its books. The net result is that all sources of investment income have increased for effective use of idle cash as mandated by the California Attorney General's Registry of Charities and Fundraisers.
