| Schedule D, Part IV, Line 2b Explanation of escrow agreement | Big Shoulders Fund receives donations classified for accounting purposes as agency transactions designated for specific beneficiaries. Donations are deposited into Big Shoulders Fund bank accounts and recorded as liabilities until paid. Donations are tracked using the same method as other restricted donations. |
| Schedule D, Part V, Line 4 Intended uses of endowment funds | Endowment funds are used per donor restrictions for scholarships, programs, and other expenses. Earnings on Board designated endowments are used for administrative expenses, which may include program, management, and fundraising expenses. |
| Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 (ASC 740) footnote | The Fund has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service indicating that the Fund is exempt from income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and, except for taxes pertaining to unrelated business income, is exempt from federal and state income taxes. The Fund is classified as a public charity under Section 509(a)(1) and Section 170(b)(1)(A)(vi), an organization that normally receives a substantial part of its support from direct or indirect contributions from the general public. The Fund recognizes a tax position as a benefit only if it is "more likely than not" that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the "more likely than not" test, no tax benefit is recorded. The Fund does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly change in the next twelve months. The Fund has applied this criterion to all tax positions for which the statute of limitations remains open. Tax years open to examination by tax authorities under the statute of limitations include fiscal years ended June 2017 through 2020. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest and income tax expense, respectively. The Fund has no amounts accrued for interest or penalties as of June 30, 2020 and 2019. The Fund has determined that its tax provisions satisfy the more likely than not criterion and that no provision for income taxes is required at June 30, 2020. |

| Schedule I, Part II Basis of Accounting | Although Big Shoulders Fund prepares its financial statements on the accrual basis, Schedule I Part II has been prepared on the cash basis. Big Shoulders Fund believes this method is more informative as it shows actual cash outlays during the year, including both direct payments to schools and payments made on behalf of schools. On the accrual basis, multi-year grants pledged but not paid in the current year would be included in this schedule, but cash payments to schools as a result of previous multi-year grants would not be included. This could cause a misunderstanding regarding the actual annual support that the Big Shoulders Fund provides to certain schools during each school year. |

| Schedule I, Part I, Line 2 Procedures for monitoring use of grant funds. | Procedures for monitoring the use of grant funds differ based on the type of grant awarded. Schools eligible for support are reviewed each year to ensure they meet the criteria (in the City of Chicago, student population has over 20% who qualify for free or reduced lunch and participate in Title I programs). Schools report annually on indicators including financial viability, enrollment, student academic performance, and demographic characteristics of students served. Renewable scholarship awards include regular progress monitoring and reporting by the individual schools on students. Patron program funds are only distributed upon agreement of Patron, School Principal, and Big Shoulders Fund, and requires substantiation through receipting or accounting of use of funds. Programmatic and capital support requires a minimum of annual reports on use of funds and demonstrated measurable objectives met through the funding. Big Shoulders Fund staff regularly visit (at least 2 - 5 times per year) schools and meet with school leadership to ensure schools are using funds as indicated by the requirement of each type of support. |

| Form 990, Part XI, Line 9 Agency Transactions | Under generally accepted accounting principles, non-profit organizations must report agency transactions in a specific manner. Agency transactions are contributions received from donors who have designated the use of their funds for a specific beneficiary, such as a donor requesting that their gift be directed to a certain school as a grant. As required under GAAP for financial statement presentation, Big Shoulders Fund excludes these from (net) revenue and reports them as liabilities when received. However, in order to present the true amount of support received from donors, Big Shoulders Fund includes these gifts in total contribution revenue on Line 1 and then includes them as a reconciling item on Part XI, Line 9. Correspondingly, agency expenditures are not included in total expenses. Big Shoulders Fund nets these with the reconciling item for Agency Transactions on Part XI, Line 9. |
