These are paid as reimbursements as the grant recipients make qualifying expenditures and document their activities. This process ensures the funds are used for the charitable purpose intended.$9,011 was paid in calendar year 2024 and the balance of $25,061 will be distributed no later than the following 4 years (witin 60 months of the set aside date). The authorized grant projects will not (were not) completed before the end of the foundation's set aside year (2024.)the distributable amounts were paid in full during the start up and full payment periods. less
