WE DO THIS VIA GRANTMAKING AND RESEARCH, POSTING THIS ANALYSIS TO OUR PUBLIC WEBSITE AND VIA OTHER MEANS. FOR THE 2020 YEAR OUR PUBLIC SUPPORT TEST REACHED 27.42%, WHICH FALLS SHORT OF THE 33 1/3 TEST. EQUITABLE GROWTH RECEIVED SUPPORT FROM A NUMBER OF FOUNDATIONS AND COMPANIES RATHER THAN RECEIVING ALL OR MOST OF ITS SUPPORT FROM A SINGLE FOUNDATION. WHILE WE HAVE NOT YET REACHED THE GOAL OF 33 1/3% OR MORE, WE CONTINUE TO ACTIVELY WORK TO DIVERSIFY OUR REVENUE BASE, SO WE CAN MAKE IMPROVEMENTS IN FUTURE YEARS, ULTIMATELY MEETING THE GOAL. |
