In Washington, D.C. AMURT provides emergency groceries to 50 poor households a week. Many of our clients, especially the elderly and those with disabilities, are home-bound, so we deliver groceries to their homes. AMURTs Food For All program has been assisting such people with emergency food needs for the past fifteen years. In Los Angeles the program provides breakfast every Sunday morning to 500 people on Skid Row, and groceries to over 100 poor families in South Central Los Angeles every Friday morning. 1635899 true false false false false false false false false false true false false false false true true false false true true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 0 0 false 0 false false false true OC false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 14 12 false false false false false false false true true true true true true true false false true true false false false X Peter Sage 3017387122 2502 Lindley Terrace Rockville MD 20850 X Craig Goldberg Director 10.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 David Grau Vice President 10.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Peter Dodge Treasurer 7.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Steven Landau President 10.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Diane Alcantara Secretary 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Tito Domine Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Lorraine Dutta Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Robert Eklund Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Dada Muktatmananda Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jesse Kramer Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Joni Zweig Executive Dir. 10.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Peter Sage Executive Dir. 30.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Dada Dharmapremananda Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Naveen Joshi Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 0 false false false 0 4066 20 1488091 1492177 Program Service Fees 900099 14498 14498 14498 2 2 0 0 0 52193 52193 52193 52193 0 0 74074 39996 34078 34078 Exchange Rate Gain 900099 14674 14674 Other Revenue 900099 3099 3099 17773 1610721 48576 69968 X 0 1500 1500 106433 106433 0 0 0 696826 696826 0 15509 8995 6514 0 0 1501 1501 2500 2500 0 0 0 235376 228489 5957 930 0 0 0 0 27817 4972 22845 60554 56511 4043 0 0 0 0 37778 37778 7666 6890 776 other program costs 158958 158950 8 direct assistance 148579 148579 facilities and material costs 106463 106463 Supplies 46599 42013 4586 45455 31500 13701 254 1699514 1635899 62431 1184 328610 229112 12592 55835 45864 138524 26841 11364 0 0 0 22300 20359 2500 2500 163620 82773 107311 80847 0 0 0 0 0 546018 538541 18268 85584 10000 29000 5000 33268 114584 X 356742 178880 156008 245077 512750 423957 546018 538541 -88793 X false true X true false X 4381491 3386988 1064271 1477861 1492177 11802788 0 0 4381491 3386988 1064271 1477861 1492177 11802788 0 11802788 5547 1286 55 235 2 7125 0 3554 -21741 84077 59225 100769 225884 12035797 0.98060 0.98940 X 34360 34360 10050 2215 7835 119210 80558 38652 80847 X 1610721 1610721 1610721 1699514 1699514 1699514 Part X : FIN48 Footnote At December 31, 2014, and for the year then ended, there were no material unrecognized/derecognized tax benefits or tax penalties or interest. No provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements. In general, when tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets, along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. AMURT has determined that no such liabilities were required at December 31, 2014. true Haiti 1 30 Program Services food, educ, medicine 51456 Sub-Saharan Africa 0 0 Program Services HIV/AIDS Services 26547 South Asia 0 0 Grants to Region Receip. 41056 West Asia 0 0 Grants to Region Receip. 42408 SouthEast Asia and The Pacific 0 0 Grants to Region Receip. 28612 1 30 1 30 190079 190079 Africa Child educat 17576 wire Middle East refugee prot 35100 wire South Asia Child educat 38074 wire Southeast Asia Child educat 17806 wire 3 1 false false false false false false Part I, Line 2 - Grantmakers Explanation For Monitoring Use of Funds Outside US AMURT requires financial and narrative reports from grant recipients and makes periodic site visits to monitor the projects it funds.
