Facts And Circumstances Test
Explanation
THE INDIANAPOLIS FOUNDATION'S PUBLIC SUPPORT PERCENT HAS GRADUALLY DECLINED OVER THE LAST 5 YEARS DUE TO THE CREATION OF A CORPORATE FORM OF COMMUNITY FOUNDATION - CENTRAL INDIANA COMMUNITY FOUNDATION, INC. (CICF - 35-1493680). THE MAIN REASON FOR THIS DECLINE IS DUE TO THE MAJORITY OF CONTRIBUTIONS GOING TO CICF. THE INDIANAPOLIS FOUNDATION SHOULD CONTINUE TO QUALIFY AS A PUBLIC CHARITY DUE TO THE FOLLOWING FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES: BOARD TRUSTEES ARE APPOINTED AND REPRESENT A DIVERSE GROUP OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC; CONTRIBUTIONS CONTINUE TO BE RECEIVED FROM A BROAD SOURCE OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC; SIGNIFICANT GRANTS CONTINUE TO BE MADE TO THE INDIANAPOLIS COMMUNITY WITH THE FOCUS ON SUPPORTING THE GREATEST AREAS OF NEED; AND THE INDIANAPOLIS FOUNDATION IS VERY WELL RESPECTED IN THE COMMUNITY AND SERVES IN PARTNERSHIP WITH MANY OTHER NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS TO PROVIDE LEADERSHIP, ASSISTANCE AND COMMUNITY CONVENING TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE IN INDIANAPOLIS.
