| IRS990ScheduleA/FactsAndCircumstancesTestTxt | 0 | INTRODUCTION THE TEMPLE AND OBSERVATORY GROUP ("TOG") WAS FOUNDED ON MARCH 22, 2013 TO"FOSTER THROUGH EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS, PUBLIC FORA, AND THE PUBLICATION OF WRITTEN MATERIALS, AN UNDERSTANDING OF RELIGION, PARTICULARLY ISSUES RELATED TO THE DOCTRINES, PRACTICES, AND HISTORY OF THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS ("CHURCH"). WHILE TOG IS FOCUSED ON ISSUES RELATED TO THE CHURCH, ITS ACTIVITIES ARE NOT LIMITED TO MEMBERS OF THE CHURCH; PARTICIPATION BY AND CONTRIBUTIONS FROM NON-MEMBERS ARE WELCOME. ON JULY 23, 2013, THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE ("IRS") DETERMINED THAT TOG QUALIFIED AS A PUBLIC CHARITY UNDER IRC 170(B)(1)(A)(VI). THE DISCUSSION BELOW DEMONSTRATES THAT TOG CONTINUES TO QUALIFY AS A PUBLIC CHARITY BECAUSE IT RECEIVES SIGNIFICANTLY MORE THAN TEN PERCENT OF ITS FUNDING FROM THE PUBLIC AND MEETS OTHER FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES THAT QUALIFY IT FOR PUBLIC CHARITY STATUS. THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES TEST REQUIRES AN ORGANIZATION TO FIRST SHOW THAT IT RECEIVES AT LEAST TEN PERCENT OF ITS SUPPORT FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC OR A GOVERNMENTAL UNIT. REG. 1.170A-9(F)(3)(I). SECOND, AN ORGANIZATION MUST ALSO SHOW THAT UNDER THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES, THE CHARITY IS ORGANIZED AND OPERATED TO ATTRACT NEW AND ADDITIONAL PUBLIC SUPPORT ON A CONTINUOUS BASIS. ID. AT (F)(3)(II). DISCUSSION THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES TEST IS CALCULATED ON AN AGGREGATE BASIS AND CONSIDERS THE TAXABLE YEAR BEING TESTED AND THE FOUR TAXABLE YEARS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE TAXABLE YEAR. REG. 1.170A-9(F)(4). TOG RECEIVES OVER TEN PERCENT OF ITS FUNDING FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC. IN DETERMINING THE TEN PERCENT SUPPORT FACTOR, CONTRIBUTIONS BY AN INDIVIDUAL, TRUST, OR CORPORATION ARE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT AS SUPPORT FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC "ONLY TO THE EXTENT THAT THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF THE CONTRIBUTIONS BY ANY SUCH INDIVIDUAL, TRUST, OR CORPORATION . . . DOES NOT EXCEED TWO PERCENT OF THE ORGANIZATION'S TOTAL SUPPORT." ID. AT (F)(6). HOWEVER, THIS TWO PERCENT LIMITATION DOES NOT APPLY TO DONATIONS FROM CERTAIN PARTIES, INCLUDING DONATIONS FROM PUBLIC CHARITIES. ID. DURING THE RELEVANT TIME FRAME, TOG RECEIVED 33.15% OF ITS SUPPORT FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC BASED ON THE CONCLUSION THAT A DONOR, STEVE YOUNG, MADE AN UNUSUAL GRANT OF 20,000 IN 2018. BUT EVEN IF YOUNG'S CONTRIBUTION IS NOT CLASSIFIED AS AN UNUSUAL GRANT, TOG RECEIVED 31.16% PUBLIC SUPPORT. SEE THE DONOR RECAP ATTACHED HERETO. WITH RESPECT TO YOUNG'S CONTRIBUTION, REG. 1.170(A) PERMITS EXCLUSION OF "UNUSUAL GRANTS" WHEN DETERMINING IF THE 33?% SUPPORT TEST OR 10% PERCENT SUPPORT TEST ARE SATISFIED. IN ORDER TO BE EXCLUDED, THE IRS WILL CONSIDER IF THE CONTRIBUTION IS FROM A DISINTERESTED PARTY WHO IS ATTRACTED BY REASON OF THE PUBLICLY SUPPORTED NATURE OF THE ORGANIZATION, IF THE DONATION IS OF AN UNUSUAL AMOUNT, AND IF THE CONTRIBUTION'S SIZE WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE STATUS OF THE ORGANIZATION AS NORMALLY BEING PUBLICLY SUPPORTED. REG. 1.170A-9(F)(6)(II). HOWEVER, NO SINGLE FACTOR WILL NECESSARILY BE DETERMINATIVE IN DETERMINING WHETHER A PARTICULAR CONTRIBUTION MAY BE EXCLUDED AND ALL FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES WILL BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT. ID. AT (F)(6)(III). STEVE YOUNG'S DONATION SHOULD BE EXCLUDED AS AN UNUSUAL GRANT BECAUSE YOUNG IS A DISINTERESTED PARTY WHO DONATED BECAUSE OF THE PUBLICLY SUPPORTED NATURE OF TOG. YOUNG HAS NO FAMILIAL OR BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP WITH TOG AND DONATED SIMPLY BECAUSE HE IS A FERVENT BELIEVER IN THE ORGANIZATION'S MISSION. HIS DONATION WAS UNUSUALLY HIGH; IN FACT, YOUNG'S DONATION OF 20,000 WAS MORE THAN ALL OTHER 2018 DONATIONS COMBINED. HIS LARGE DONATION WOULD CAUSE TOG TO FAIL TO QUALIFY FOR THE 33?% SUPPORT TEST IF IT WERE NOT CLASSIFIED AS AN UNUSUAL GRANT. HOWEVER, EVEN IF YOUNG'S DONATIONS ARE NOT EXCLUDED, TOG STILL EASILY SATISFIES THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE 10% SUPPORT AND FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES TEST.
