Form 990-EZ, Part II, Line 24	In prior years, Tourism Development, Inc. transferred 126,892 to Tour of the Gila, Inc., a related 501c4 organization. This amount was previously recorded as a loan receivable under other assets. Upon review, it was determined that the original intent of the transfer was to provide financial support for public, educational, and tourism-promoting events aligned with the exempt purposes of the organization. The funds were not expected to be repaid and were not subject to a promissory note or formal loan agreement.As a result, the 126,892 has been reclassified from a loan receivable to a grant. The balance sheet in Part II has been adjusted to remove the receivable from Line 24. This correction ensures compliance with the organizations financial reporting and exempt purpose requirements under IRC 501c3.
