Facts And Circumstances Test
1. A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF THE ORGANIZATION'S SUPPORT CAME FROM THE PUBLIC AND OTHER PUBLICLY SUPPORTED ORGANIZATIONS. THE ORGANIZATION HAS FAILED THE TEST FOR THE PURPOSES OF THE FORM 990EZ SCHEDULE A WITH A SUPPORT PERCENTAGE OF 20.06%. THIS IS BECAUSE THE ORGANIZATION CONTINUED TO MAINTAIN THE GENEROUS SUPPORT OF TWO LARGE DONORS FROM 2007-2012. HOWEVER, THE CORE OF THE ORGANIZATION HAS BEEN ONE OF SMALL CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC AND OTHER PUBLICLY SUPPORTED ORGANIZATIONS. 2. THE 10% TEST IS MET. WITH A SUPPORT PERCENTAGE OF 20.06%, THE 10% TEST IS SATISFIED. 3. THE ORGANIZATION'S GOVERNING BODY REPRESENTS THE BROAD INTERESTS OF THE PUBLIC RATHER THAN THE PERSONAL OR PRIVATE INTERESTS OF A LIMITED NUMBER OF DONORS. THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BOARD, WHILE SMALL, REPRESENT PROFESSIONAL AND SMALL BUSINESS, THE ARTS, AND VOLUNTEERISM IN THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY. THE DIRECTORS DO NOT REPRESENT ANY PRIVATE INTEREST IN THE COMMUNITY, OTHER THAN THE STATED MISSION OF THE ORGANIZATION TO IMPROVE EDUCATIONAL OFFERINGS AND OPPORTUNITIES TO THE YOUTH OF OUR COMMUNITY. NONE OF THE BOARD MEMBERS ARE RELATED TO THE LARGE DONORS THAT HAVE CAUSED THE SUPPORT TEST TO FALL BELOW 33 1/3%. 4. THE ORGANIZATION PROVIDED SERVICES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC ON A CONTINUOUS BASIS. THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY BENEFITS WHEN A QUALITY EDUCATION IS PROVIDED TO THE YOUTH OF THE COMMUNITY. THE ORGANIZATION'S PROGRAM SUPPORT FLOWED TO SCHOOLS IN THE FORM OF SUPPORT FOR EDUCATIONAL ENRICHMENT. ALTHOUGH THE CYCLE OF PROGRAM ACTIVITY FOLLOWS THE SCHOOL YEAR - SEPTEMBER THROUGN MAY - THE ORGANIZATION IS AVAILABLE ALL YEAR TO RECEIVE AND CONSIDER PROPOSALS FOR PROGRAMS AND CONTRIBUTIONS. THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY BENEFITS FROM THE ACTIVITIES OF THE ORGANIZATION AND THE STUDENTS OF THE ORGANIZATIONS BENEFIT DIRECTLY. THE "EDUCATIONAL ENRICHMENT ACTIVITIES", THE ORGANIZATION FUNDS, ARE THOSE THAT ARE OUTSIDE THE NORMAL CORE CURRICULUM THAT A SCHOOL OFFERS. EXAMPLES INCLUDE THE ARTS AND SPECIAL COURSES IN SPANISH AND LATIN. 5. MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC HAVING SPECIAL KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERTISE PARTICIPATED IN AND SPONSORED THE PROGRAMS AND FUNDRAISING EFFORTS OF THE ORGANIZATION. EDUCATIONAL LEADERS WERE PRO-ACTIVE IN DESIGNING PROGRAMS TO TAKE PLACE AT THEIR RESPECTIVE SCHOOL. THEY THEN MADE DONOR SOURCES AWARE OF THESE PROGRAMS AND ENCOURAGED THESE DONORS TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE ORGANIZATION FOR THE SPECIFIC PURPOSE OF FUNDING THESE EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES THAT THEY AND THEIR STUDENTS HAVE DEVELOPED. 6. THE ORGANIZATION HAS SUCCESSFULLY ACCOMPLISHED ITS MISSION FOR FIVE YEARS AND ESTABLISHED ITS NAME IN THE COMMUNITY AND CONTINUES ITS OUTREACH TO THE PUBLIC. WE HAVE MADE THE EDUCATIONAL COMMUNITY AWARE THAT THE FOUNDATION IS A RESOURCE AND A VEHICLE FOR SCHOOLS TO UTILIZE IN THEIR EFFORTS TO PROVIDE SCHOLARSHIPS AND DESIGN AND DEVELOP EDUCATIONAL ENRICHMENT PROGRAMS. THE ORGANIZATION IS UNIQUE IN THAT IT INVOLVES SCHOOLS AT THE PROGRAM DESIGN AND DELIVERY LEVEL, AS WELL AS INCLUDING THEM IN THE RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT OF THOSE PROGRAMS.
