Under that 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. An example of a tax position includes the tax-exempt status of the Organization. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. At December 31, 2024, the Organization does not believe its financial statements include (or reflect) any uncertain tax positions. There are no penalties or interest reflected in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. At December 31, 2024, the Organizations tax returns for the years 2024, 2023, 2022, and 2021 are within the statute of limitations for IRS audit.
