Description: Significant deficiency in internal control over compliance related to suspension and debarment. Cause: Though the Organization has established internal controls for suspension and debarment, the Organization made an incorrect determination that the suspension and debarment requirements outlined in 2 CFR 200 Part 180 only applied to subawards. Effect: The Organization did not fully comply with the suspension and debarment requirements regarding covered transactions. Corrective Action: • The Organization’s management previously had an incorrect understanding of the Suspension & Debarment requirements of 2 CFR Part 180. Management was aware that Suspension & Debarment verification is required for subawards, but did not realize that this requirement also extends to vendors when procuring goods or services in excess of $25,000. Washington Maritime Blue’s management is committed to ongoing professional development in order to maintain the highest standards for financial reporting and regulatory compliance, and we became aware of this error mid-way through the year under audit. At that point, we took the following corrective action: o Contract templates were updated to include Suspension & Debarment terms. This updated template was used for all new purchase contracts. • Unfortunately, several federally-funded purchase contracts in excess of $25,000 had already been entered into before this update was made to our processes. We acknowledge that regulations related to Suspension & Debarment were not observed with respect to these earlier purchases, but are confident that the error will not be completed moving forward. Contact Person: Daniel Pulse, CFO Anticipated completion date: November 2025, Corrective action has been completed.

Description: Significant deficiency in internal control over compliance related to reporting. Cause: Though the Organization has established internal controls for submitting covered subawards as required by the Transparency Act, the Organization made an incorrect determination that the covered subaward was under the required reporting limit. Effect: The Organization did not comply with the subaward reporting requirements as specified in 2 CFR 170. Corrective Action: • The Organization’s management and Board of Directors understand the requirement and importance of complying with the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act. Our Accounting & Finance Policy and Subrecipient Monitoring Policy have both been updated to clearly assign the responsibility for timely reporting of subawards. The covered subaward that was not reported in FY25 was reported promptly as soon as this issue was raised as part of the audit. Contact Person: Daniel Pulse, CFO Anticipated completion date: November 2025, Corrective action has been completed.

Auditors’ Recommendation: Although auditors may continue to provide such assistance both now and in the future, under this pronouncement, the District should continue to review and accept both proposed adjusting journal entries and footnote disclosures, along with the draft financial statements.

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The Agency agrees with the above finding and has since made the appropriate rental adjustment to the tenant’s record. The overpayment to the landlord has been recouped. This error occurred in a tenant file at a blended-occupancy project with 30+ Section 8 participants and a tiered rent structure. The landlord’s rent increase request was complex, which contributed to the error. To prevent similar issues in the future, staff will conduct a detailed review of each tenant file at the time an increase request is submitted. Any outliers will be identified, and clear notes will be entered in the file to help avoid recurrence.

The following actions will be taken to ensure compliance with the Uniform Guidance requirements over internal controls: Management concurs with the finding. Effective immediately, The Greater Washington Community Foundation has implemented the following corrective actions: (1) Prior to entering into any subaward agreement involving federal funds as well as at the time of each payment, designated staff will verify that potential subrecipients are not suspended or debarred by conducting searches in the System for Award Management (SAM) at www.sam.gov, with documentation maintained in the grant file. This verification will also be performed when subaward agreements are amended or extended. (2) The standard subaward agreement template will be updated to include all required information specified in 2 CFR §200.332(b)(1), including the federal assistance listing number, subrecipient's unique entity identifier, federal award project description, amount of federal funds obligated, total federal award amount, applicable compliance requirements, and reporting and monitoring requirements. To strengthen ongoing compliance, the Foundation's procurement and cash management policies have been updated to incorporate these federal compliance requirements and will be reviewed annually. Given that federal funding is not received on a recurring basis, upon receipt of future federal funding, the Controller will serve as the Compliance Coordinator with full oversight of compliance activities. The Controller will review applicable federal regulations, update internal procedures as necessary, and provide comprehensive training to appropriate staff managing the contract to ensure adherence to all grant requirements. The finance team will complete a quarterly review process to verify that all active federal subawards contain required compliance elements, with the Controller maintaining oversight of this review and reporting any deficiencies to the Chief Financial Officer for immediate remediation.
