The Organization had no unrelated business income during fiscal year 2024 and, therefore, no provision for federal or State income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements.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. This requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Organizations tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are more likely than not of being sustained when challenged or when examined by the applicable tax authority. For the year ended December 31, 2024, management has determined that there were no material uncertain tax positions. false BLACHE Black Leadership Advoc 1000 E 111st Street 6th Fl Chicago IL 60602 921936806 501(c)3 6300 0 Gilead Church Chicago PO Box 13222 Chicago IL 60613 831868186 501(c)3 10000 0 Inclusive Collective Church 77 W Washington St 2nd Floor Chicago IL 60602 362897617 501(c)3 10000 0 Lighthouse Church of Chicago 2335 N Orchard St Chicago IL 60614 364341756 501(c)3 55000 0 4 0 JAMIE FRAZIER EXEC.
