| Schedule A, Line 17a | The Foundations assets represent donations made over 45 years by several thousand individuals practicing in the fields of photogrammetry, remote sensing, and geospatial analysis, with the specific objective of fully endowing the awards and scholarship grants made by the American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS). The Public Support ratio was negatively affected in recent years by the lack of a coordinated donor campaign, and was further complicated by the COVID pandemic, however, the ratio has begun to rise again due to implementation of a more focused donor campaign. Although the ratio is still lagging for several reasons, including the fact that investment income has increased significantly in recent years, combined with the fact that the donor class is generally aware that the designated award funds have essentially reached full endowment status, reviewing all of the factors affecting the ratio the organization believes it will soon meet the 33 1/3 percent support test once again. |
