IRS990ScheduleA/FactsAndCircumstancesTestTxt0Current Year Facts and Circumstances: PART II, SECTION C, LINE 17A, FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES TEST:Biblos Foundation has historically taken the position that it met the 10% facts and circumstances test to qualify as a public charity.Biblos was formed in 2007 to encourage a deeper interest in and appreciation for biblical studies and to instigate advanced research and share insights beyond the classroom. Biblos encourages the study of the Bible from a Christian Science point of view.The organization maintains a development program to attract public support; however, the general public pool of persons inspired to support the Christian Science perspective is much smaller than that of traditional biblical study organizations and programs. The development program at Biblos Foundation seeks out and applies for grant funding from larger organizations that support Christian Science studies.Biblos maintains a website, encourages online donations and membership, and regularly updates its online library of resources to provide new materials and audio sessions to subscribers. Biblos has a wide variety of online subscribers and is continuously looking for innovative ways to increase and expand engagement with current and new subscribers, including membership options that appeal to all ages. Membership fees are kept low to encourage interest in learning more about Christian Science. These services are available on a regular and continuous basis to anyone interested in advancing their education and knowledge.The staff and governing body of Biblos Foundation are committed to advancing their own education in the field of Christian Science and to providing a venue through the Foundation to enrich the lives of others seeking similar education or simply seeking answers. Biblos is organized and operated in a manner to attract new and additional public support on a regular and continuous basis.As a result of prior efforts to secure funding for continued program operations, Biblos Foundation has received generous support from two large private foundations. If Biblos were able to exclude these contributions from its public support test calculation, it would easily meet the 33?% public support test.However, Biblos Foundation no longer meets the calculation requirements of the facts and circumstances test and this return represents its final filing as a public charity. Beginning with the next tax year, Biblos Foundation will file Form 990-PF as required for private foundations.
