IRS990ScheduleA/FactsAndCircumstancesTestTxt0AABS WAS FOUNDED IN 1968 AND FROM THE TIME THAT WE WERE RECOGNIZED AS A 501(C)3 NONPROFIT UP UNTIL THIS YEAR WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO QUALIFY AS A PUBLIC CHARITY UNDER THE 33 1/3% TEST. WE HAVE ALWAYS HAD, AND CONTINUE TO HAVE, A STRONG FUNDRAISING PROGRAM AND A DIVERSE BOARD OF DIRECTORS. WE NOTICED IN 2018 AND 2019 THAT OUR DONATIONS HAD BEGUN TO GO DOWN AT THE SAME TIME THAT OUR INVESTMENT INCOME WAS INCREASING. WE TOOK STEPS TO TRY AND INCREASE OUR FUNDRAISING BUT DUE TO THE COVID PANDEMIC WE WERE NOT ABLE TO REACH OUR FUNDRAISING GOALS EVEN THOUGH OUR DONATIONS DID INCREASE IN 2020 AND 2021. WE ASK THAT YOU TAKE OUR LONG HISTORY, OUR FUNDRAISING EFFORTS, OUR BOARD COMPOSITION, AND THE PANDEMIC INTO ACCOUNT TO DETERMINE THAT WE MEET THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES TEST IN 2024.
