IRS990ScheduleA/FactsAndCircumstancesTestTxt0SSAFE, INC. (SSAFE), HAS PUBLIC SUPPORT THAT IS ABOUT 25%. THIS IS SUBSTANTIALLY ABOVE THE 10% THRESHOLD NEEDED FOR MEETING THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES TEST. IN ADDITION, SSAFE IS CONTINUALLY WORKING TOWARDS INCREASING MEMBERSHIP IN THE ORGANIZATION. THE MEMBERSHIP GROUP CONSISTS PRIMARILY OF LARGE MULTINATIONAL CORPORATIONS THAT ARE IN THE GLOBAL FOOD MARKET. THE CURRENT MEMBERS OF THE ORGANIZATION ARE IN CONTACT WITH CORPORATIONS WITHIN THE MEMBERSHIP GROUP THAT ARE NOT CURRENTLY MEMBERS OF SSAFE. THE GOAL IS TO INCREASE MEMBERSHIP BY AT LEAST ONE EACH YEAR FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL YEARS. IN THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS, THERE HAVE BEEN ADDITIONAL NEW MEMBERS. THERE ARE CURRENTLY TEN MEMBERS OF SSAFE ALL OF WHOM CONTRIBUTE THE SAME AMOUNT OF MEMBERSHIP DUES. TO ENSURE THE BROADEST BASED MEMBERSHIP POSSIBLE, EACH MEMBER OF SSAFE HAS ONE VOTE ON THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS. THE MEMBERS OF SSAFE HAVE SPECIAL KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERTISE WHICH IS REQUIRED TO IMPLEMENT THE SCIENCE-BASED STRATEGIES AND PROGRAMS FOR THE WORLDWIDE SUPPLY OF SAFE AND AFFORDABLE FOOD. IN ADDITION, BECAUSE OF THE WORLD-WIDE SCOPE OF SSAFE, THE EXPERTISE AND RESOURCES REQUIRED TO BE AN EFFECTIVE MEMBER LIMITS THE MEMBERSHIP GROUP THAT WOULD BE AVAILABLE TO JOIN SSAFE. RECOGNIZING THE LIMITED CAPACITY FOR ORGANIZATIONS TO BECOME MEMBERS, SSAFE ENCOURAGES ORGANIZATIONS TO PARTICIPATE BY BECOMING COLLABORATORS. THESE ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDE INTERGOVERNMENTAL AND GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES, ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS AND PROFESSIONAL OR TRADE ORGANIZATIONS WHO PARTICIPATE IN SSAFE ACTIVITIES AND BRING VALUABLE RESOURCES TO THE ORGANIZATION. WHILE NOT HAVING VOTING PRIVILEGES, THEY DO NOT PAY DUES. WHILE THE POOL OF POTENTIAL MEMBERS IS LIMITED, THE SERVICES PROVIDED BY SSAFE BENEFIT A BROAD AND DIVERSE PUBLIC. SSAFE'S ENTIRE PROGRAMMING IS DESIGNED TO BRING SAFE AND AFFORDABLE FOOD TO WORLD-WIDE FOOD CONSUMERS. SSAFE WORKS TO IMPACT THE GENERAL PUBLIC ON A CONTINUING BASIS. QUITE LITERALLY, THE WHOLE WORLD IS SSAFE'S PUBLIC THAT IT IS SERVING. FOR EXAMPLE, SSAFE HAS MEMORANDUMS OF UNDERSTANDING WITH FAO (FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS), THE OIE (WORLD ORGANIZATION FOR ANIMAL HEALTH), AND GFSI (THE GLOBAL FOOD SAFETY INITIATIVE). THESE ARE MAJOR WORLD-WIDE ORGANIZATIONS THAT PROVIDE INVALUABLE RESOURCES AND SERVICES TO THE WORLD-WIDE COMMUNITY TO INCREASE THE SUPPLY OF SAFE AND AFFORDABLE FOOD.
