The Funds are set aside to generate a return on investment, and the Organization may expend an annual maximum of 5% of the market value of the Funds to support housing programs. Part X, Line 2: St. Mary's and Crossroads are qualified under Section 501(c)(3) of the IRC and are exempt from federal and state income taxes. The Organization is subject to federal and state income taxes on unrelated business income, if any. Transitional Housing, LLC and 8 Notre Dame are single-member LLCs with their sole member being St. Mary's, an exempt company under Section 501(c)(3). As such, Transitional Housing, LLC and 8 Notre Dame are considered disregarded entities for tax purposes. The Organization follows FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes by prescribing the recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The Organization recognizes a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. Management evaluated the Organization's tax positions and concluded that the Organization had no material uncertainties in income taxes at June 30, 2024 and 2023. The Organization is no longer subject to income tax examinations by U.S. federal, state or local authorities for three fiscal years from the filing date.

The Development Guild did not solicit contributions on behalf of the Organization, maintain or oversee any fundraising events, or engage or participate in any of the Organization's program services. Rather, the Organization independently utilized the data and insight provided by The Development Guild to improve the Organization's own fundraising capabilities and expertise. The services provided by The Development Guild were valuable and improved the Organization's ability to fundraise, but no gross receipts or donations received by the Organization can be connected to the services provided by The Development Guild. Accordingly, $0 is reported on this Form 990, Schedule G, Part I, Column iv. Additionally, in accordance with GAAP, a portion of the fees paid to the Development Guild were capitalized within the Organization's asset accounts as reported on the Organization's audited financial statements. As a result of this accounting treatment, the total fees paid to the Development Guild during this tax year, as reported on this Schedule G, Part I, exceed the amount of fees expensed on this Form 990, Part IX, Line 11e.

Additionally, the Member of the Organization reserves the power to call special meetings and to cast votes at meetings. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b The President, CFO, and key members of the Board and finance committee work with the Organization's engaged accountants to prepare and review the Form 990 tax return, to answer any questions, and to approve the Form 990 return for filing. Due to administrative and time constraints, all members of the Board may not receive a copy of the return prior to its filing, though the return is eventually made available for the entire Board's review and consideration, and all Board members are encouraged to read the return in its entirety and to ask questions, should they have any. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c Each year all members of the Board of Trustees and key employees receive a copy of St. Mary's Center for Women and Children conflict of interest policy along with a conflict of interest disclosure statement. Each member of the Board and key employees complete the conflict of interest disclosure statement noting any areas of conflicting interest. In cases where a conflicting interest may exist it is fully disclosed to the President who shall bring the matter to the attention of the Board of Trustees. The Board determines if a conflict exists, and if a contemplated transaction may be authorized as just, fair and reasonable to St. Mary's Center for Women and Children. If the transaction is authorized, the person with the conflict of interest is excluded from any discussion or approval of the transaction, competitive bids or comparative value analysis are made, and it must be determined to be in the best interest of the organization.

Compensation for the candidate is recommended to the Board and a decision will be agreed upon. In the case of increases in compensation for a key employee, the same process is followed and the recommendation is made to the Board of Trustees who will meet and vote to approve increases annually. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, Form 990 return and financial statements available to the public upon request for the same period of disclosure as set forth in Section 6104(D).
