Dear Applicant:
We're pleased to tell you we determined you're exempt from federal income tax under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 501(c)(3).

This letter could help resolve questions on your exempt status. Please keep it for your records.
Organizations exempt under IRC Section 501(c)(3) are further classified as either public charities or private foundations. We determined you're a public charity under the IRC Section listed at the top of this letter.
Based on the information you submitted with your application, your exemption under IRC Section 501(c) (4) is reinstated for the period May 15, 2023, to the effective date shown in the heading of this letter.
Your exemption under IRC Section 501(c)(3) is effective as of the date listed at the top of this letter.
You were exempt under Section 501(c)(4) prior to this date.
