| IRS990ScheduleA/GeneralExplanation | 0 | The mission of Math for America is to improve mathematics education in US public secondary schools by recruiting, training and retaining outstanding mathematics teachers. Its goal is to increase the number of mathematically talented individuals entering teaching and to support those outstanding mathematics teachers already in the classroom. U.S. students rank poorly in proficiency on both domestic and international math exams, a problem that could cost the country significantly as it tries to compete in an-ever global world. U.S. students fall behind 31 countries in math proficiency. Although math performance levels among countries that ranked 23 to 31 aren't significantly different from that of the U. S., 22 countries outperform the U. S. in the number of students reaching math proficiency. In six countries-plus Shanghai and Hong Kong-a majority of students performed at the proficient level, while in the U.S., less than one-third did. The consequences of these poor testing results have impacted the U.S. economy as firms are experiencing shortages of technically skilled workers and outsourcing professional-level work to workers abroad. Student performance on math tests is closely related to long-term economic productivity growth; if the U.S. could increase its proficiency levels, it would enjoy an increase in its GDP growth. Math for America's vision is to dramatically change mathematics and science education over the next decade throughout America in order to keep our country competitive. Math for America relies upon the generosity of public donors to continue its important work. Historically, the organization has received large donations from a single benefactor, but the organization's goal is to diminish its reliance upon this model and expand its fundraising reach into the public sector. In recent years, the United States economy has suffered through a recession that has impacted all segments of the corporate and not-for-profit world. As individuals struggle to retain their jobs, pay their mortgages, and put food on their tables, the ability to support local charities has been significantly hampered. This has impacted all charities' ability to raise funds, to solicit contributions and to generate revenues to undertake exempt programs. Math for America is fortunate to have weathered the difficult economic times, but the consequence has been a less-than-optimal ability to raise funds from the public. Math for America understands the need to meet the public support test. To that end, it is continually attempting to generate new sources of fundraising, both through broad donor appeals, targeted solicitations, and special events. Internal Revenue Code Regulation 1.170A-9T lists several criteria which indicate facts and circumstances supporting an organization's continued public charity status despite not meeting the 33 1/3 support test. Those criteria are as follows: 1. Attraction of public support - in the past few years, Math for America has sought to expand its fundraising capabilities in order to generate greater public support. These activities target prospective donors who support the mission and programs of the organization. Math for America's efforts to expand its donor base has largely succeeded as the organization's public support percentage has increased dramatically from 21% to 31%. The organization anticipates this percentage will continue to increase and, perhaps, exceed 33 1/3% next year. 2. Percentage of financial support - Math for America's public support percentage exceeds 31%. The higher the percentage of support above the 10 percent requirement of paragraph (f)(3)(i) of 1.170A-9T, the lesser will be the burden of establishing the publicly supported nature of the organization through other factors described in paragraph (f)(3), while the lower the percentage, the greater will be the burden. Math for America's support percentage is low because it receives a high percentage of its total support from a small cl |
| IRS990ScheduleA/GeneralExplanation | 1 | Math For America received an unusual grant of $13,500,000 in the year ending June 30, 2011. This grant has been excluded from the public support calculation. This grant was: 1. Attracted/Received because of an appreciation for Math For America's mission. 2. Unusual and unexpected because of the amount, and 3. Large enough to endanger the organization's status as normally meeting the 10% facts and circumstances test. This grant was a one-time grant that was received in the one fiscal year. |
