IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt0THE ORGANIZATION FAILED TO MAKE THE 33 1/3% TEST BUT SHOULD STILL BE CONSIDERED A PUBLICALLY SUPPORTED ORGANIZATION BASED ON THE FOLLOWING FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES. THE ORGANIZATION WAS IN A TRANSITIONAL PERIOD FROM 2012 TO 2016 AND THEREFORE WAS NOT COLLECTING ANY SUPPORT FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC OR GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS AND ONLY HAD INVESTMENT INCOME BECAUSE THEY HAD A CHECKING ACCOUNT THAT BEARED INTEREST. AMOUNTS OF INTEREST EARNED WERE MINIMAL, LESS THAN $100 EACH YEAR. IN THE YEARS IMMEDIATLY PRECEEDING 2012 THE ORGANIZATION HAD ALWAYS MEET THAT TEST. IN THE CURRENT YEAR THE BOARD HAS RESOLVED TO DISSOLVE THE ORGANIZATION AND TRANSFER ALL REMAINING ASSETS TO AN ORGANIZATION WITH A SIMILAR MISSION. THAT ORGANIZATION DOES MEET THE 33 1/3% SUPPORT TEST.
