Dear Taxpayer:
This is in response to your request dated Nov. 21, 2016, regarding your tax-exempt status.
We issued you a determination letter in May 1960, recognizing you as tax-exempt under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 501(c) Our records also indicate you're not a private foundation as defined under IRC Section 509(a) because you're described in IRC Sections 509(a) (1) and 170(b) (1)(A) (vi).
Donors can deduct contributions they make to you as provided in IRC 170. You're also qualified to receive tax deductible bequests, legacies, devises, transfers, or gifts under IRC Sections 2055, 2106, and 2522.
In the heading of this letter, we indicated whether you must file an annual information return. If a return is required, you must file Form 990, 990-EZ, 990-N, or 990-PF by the 15th day of the fifth month after the end of your annual accounting period. IRC Section 6033(j) provides that, if you don't file a required annual information return or notice for three consecutive years, your exempt status will be automatically revoked on the filing due date of the third required return or notice.
