IRS990ScheduleA/FactsAndCircumstancesTestTxt0DURING THE PRIOR YEAR, A DONATION OF 250,000 WAS RECEIVED AND IN THE SECOND PRIOR YEAR, A DONATION OF 166,667 WAS RECEIVED FROM THE ESTATE OF A DECEASED INDIVIDUAL. THESE WERE ONE-TIME NON-RECURRING EVENTS. THE INDIVIDUAL AND THE DECEASED INDIVIDUAL WERE LOCAL RESIDENTS CONCERNED ABOUT THE STUDENTS OF THE LOCAL SCHOOL DISTRICT. THESE INDIVIDUALS NEVER PARTICIPATED ON THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND HAD NO DECISOIN MAKING REGARDING THE SPENDING OF THE DONATIONS AND THE DONATIONS ARE UNRESTRICTED. THESE DONATIONS CAUSE THE FOUNDATION TO NO LONGER MEET THE PUBLIC SUPPORT TEST. THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES OF THE GIFTS AND OTHER CONDITIONS EXPERIENCED BY THE FOUNDATION OVER THE PAST 5 YEARS THAT HAVE AFFECTED ITS FUNDRAISING, HOWEVER, PROVIDE A COMPELLING REASON TO CLASSIFY THE FOUNDATION AS A PUBLICLY SUPPORTED ENTITY. OTHER DONATIONS RECEIVED BY THE FOUNDATION HAVE BEEN MINIMAL BECAUSE THE LOCAL COMMUNITY HAS BEEN HARD HIT BY CURRENT ECONOMIC CONDITIONS. A FORMER MINING COMMUNITY, THE IRON RIVER AREA HAS EXPERIENCED A DECLINING POPULATION AND A HIGH UNEMPLOYMENT RATE. THIS HAS INCREASED THE PRESSURE ON THOSE INDIVIDUALS OF MEANS TO SUPPORT THE CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS PROVIDING BASIC NECESSITIES TO THOSE IN NEED. AS A RESULT, FUND RAISING ACTIVITIES HAVE BEEN FAR LESS SUCCESSFUL THAN IN THE PAST. THE FOUNDATION IS GOVERNED BY A VOLUNTARY ACTIVE BOARD THAT IS REPRESENTATIVE OF THE COMMUNITY. OTHER THAN INVESTMENT AND ACCOUNTING FEES, ALL ACTIVITIES OF THE FOUNDATION ARE ON A VOLUNTEER BASIS AND ALL FUNDS SUPPORT STUDENT COLLEGE SCHOLARHSIPS.
