IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt1INDIA CULTURAL AND EDUCATION CENTER INC 59-3112858
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt2FORM 990 FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,2024
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt3FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES TEST REGULATIONS SECTION 1.170A-9(F)(3)
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt4HISTORY AND MISSION:
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt5INDIA CULTURAL AND EDUCATION CENTER INC (ICEC)WAS FOUNDED IN 1992 AS A SECULAR, NONPOLITICAL, PUBLIC CHARITY, EXEMPT UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE (IRC), TO PROVIDE SUPPORT, SERVICES AND A CULTURAL ENVIRONMENT FOR STUDENTS OF ASIAN INDIAN ORIGIAN AND THEIR FAMILIES, BOTH ZEROTH AND FIRST GENERATION. A KEY PART OF THIS MISSION HAS ALWAYS BEEN SIGNIFICANT CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL OUTREACH INTO LARGER GAINESVILLE COMMUNITY & ALACHUA COUNTY.
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt6SALE OF OLD BUILDING, NEW CONSTRUCTION DELAYS:
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt7IN 2017, ICEC SOLD ITS ORIGINAL BUILDING, CONSTRUCTED IN 1992, AS IT NO LONGER MET THE ORGANIZATIONS EVOLVING NEREDS. THE FACILITY HAD BECOME COSTLY TO MAINTAIN, WITH LIMITED SPACE AND INADEQUATE PARKING. FOR YEARS PRIOR, MANY LARGE-SCALE ICEC EVENTS HAD BEEN HOSTED AT EXTERNAL VENUES BETTER SUITED TO ACCOMMODATE ATTENDEES. THESE VENUES, OFTEN SUPPORTED OR SUBSIDIZED BY LOCAL GOVERNMENT ENTITIES, RECOGNIZED THE PUBLIC AND CULTURAL VALUE OF SUCH EVENTS. FOR INSTANCE, THE FLAGSHIP ANNUAL EVENT, INDIAFEST, WAS INITIALLY HELD AT SANTA FE COLLEGE, THEN GAINESVILLES DOWNTOWN PLAZA, AND MORE RECENTLY, AT THE CITY OF ALACHUAS MULTIPURPOSE CENTER. ADDITIONALLY, CONCERTS IN COLLABORATION WITH OTHER ORGANIZATIONS WERE HOSTED IN AUDITORIUMS WITH SUPERIOR ACOUSTICS, AS THE OLD BUILDINGS SOUND QUALITY WAS INSUFFICIENT FOR CULTURAL PERFORMANCES.
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt8THE ANNUAL NEW GRADUATE STUDENT ORIENTATION EVENT (FEATURING SPECIALIZED ADVICE TO NEW STUDENTS OF ASIAN INDIAN ORIGIN) WAS HELD AT THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA REITZ UNION.
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt9PROCEEDS FROM THE SALE OF THE OLD ICEC BUILDING WERE USED TO PURCHASE A LARGER PARCEL OF LAND INTENDED FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW FACILITY. HOWEVER, THE PROJECT HAS FACED SIGNIFICANT DELAYS DUE TO MULTIPLE FACTORS. INITIAL NEGOTIATIONS WITH A LOCAL NONPROFIT PROPOSING TO SHARE THE LAND EXTENDED OVER SEVERAL MONTHS BEFORE BEING DECLINED BY THE BOARD FOR VALID REASONS. SUBSEQUENT DELAYS OCCURRED DURING THE REZONING PROCESS, SECURING WATER AND SEWAGE PERMITS AND CONNECTIONS, OBTAINING ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING BIDS, AND FINALIZING SITE PLANS. COMMUNITY FEEDBACK AND PLANNING ADDED FURTHER TIME. JUST AS GROUND-LEVEL PLANS WERE FINALIZED IN EARLY 2020, THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC STRUCK, CAUSING SHARP INCREASES IN CONSTRUCTION COSTS AND BRINGING PROGRESS TO A NEAR HALT. ICEC CONTINUES TO EXPLORE THE POSSIBILITY OF ACQUIRING A SUITABLE EXISTING BUILDING.
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt10IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT ICEC IS A VOLUNTEER-RUN ORGANIZATION; IT HAS NO PAID EMPLOYEES OR STAFF WHO COULD FOCUS THEIR ACTIVITIES ON COORDINATING THE ABOVE ACTIVITIES.
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt11INVESTMENT:
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt12INVESTMENT ARISING FROM BUILDING SALE AND CONSTRUCTION DELAY:
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt13IN THE MEANTIME, THE ICEC BOARD FULFILLED ITS FIDUCIARY RESPONSIBILITY AND INVESTED THE REMAINING AMOUNT PLANNED FOR THE NEW BUILDING, INTO RELATIVELY LOW RISK, MOSTLY FIXED-INCOME INVESTMENTS, A LARGE PORTION IN TAX-EXEMPT MUNICIPAL, GENERAL OBLIGATION BONDS.
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt14ICEC MEETS THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES TEST FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt15TEN-PERCENT SUPPORT LIMITATION. AS COMPUTED AT FORM 990, SCHEDULE A, PART II, SECTION C., LINES 14 AND 15, ICEC MEETS THE 10% SUPPORT TEST.
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt16ATTRACTION OF PUBLIC SUPPORT:
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt17ICEC IS ORGANIZED AND OPERATED AS A PUBLICLY SUPPORTED CHARITY, EXEMPT FROM INCOME TAXES UNDER IRC SECTION 501(C)(3). RUN ENTIRELY BY VOLUNTEERS, THE ORGANIZATION ACTS AS A SUPPORTIVE RESOURCE (E.G. HOST FAMILIES, INFORMAL ACADEMIC AND PROFESSIONAL GUIDANCE AND HELP, ZERO-INTEREST LOANS AND ASSISTANCE IN TIMES OF DISTRESS) LIAISING WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDAS INTERNATIONAL CENTER, AND DEAN OF STUDENTS OFFICES.
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt18EVERY YEAR A NUMBER OF COMMUNITY EVENTS AND CULTURAL OUTREACH EVENTS ARE CONDUCTED BY VARIOUS SUBGROUPS WITHIN THE ORGANIZATION: YOUTH GROUP CULTURAL EVENTS IN JANUARY AND AUGUST (REPUBLIC DAY AND INDIAN INDEPENDENCE DAY), HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION DAY, NEW GRADUATE STUDENT ORIENTATION DAY, INDIAFEST (HELD ON THE DOWNTOWN PLAZA, A DAY LONG PUBLIC CULTURAL OUTREACH TO THE COMMUNITY ATTENDED BY THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE, FEATURING INDIAN FOOD, ART, HANDS-ON ACTIVITIES, INFORMATION STALLS, LIVE PERFORMANCES OF MUSIC, DANCE ETC.), AND CELEBRATION OF FESTIVALS (CELEBRATING DIWALI, EID, CHRISTMAS AND OTHER FESTIVALS OCCURRING IN THE LATTER MONTHS OF THE YEAR).
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt19OTHER ACTIVITIES OF THE ORGANIZATION ARE: WEEKLY SAT PRACTICE CLASSES FOR MEMBERS CHILDREN (IT WAS INTERRUPTED DUE TO COVID IN 2022); AND FUNDRAISING FOR LOCAL CHARITIES OR DISASTER RELIEF. IN ADDITION, THE YOUTH GROUP CONDUCTS MANY SMALLER ACTIVITIES AND EVENTS INCLUDING PARTICIPATING IN COMMUNITY PARK CLEANUPS, TUTORING, PUBLIC LIBRARY EVENTS, AND MORE. MOREOVER, THE ORGANIZATION PARTNERS WITH AND SPONSORS OTHER NONPROFIT OR INFORMAL EDUCATIONAL AND CULTURAL ORGANIZATIONS IN GAINESVILLE CITY, ALACHUA COUNTY, AND SUPPORTS SELECTED LOCAL CHARITIES LIKE PEACEFUL PATHS (FOR SURVIVORS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE).
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt20THE ORGANIZATION CONTINUALLY SEEKS TO FIND NEW AND MORE EFFECTIVE WAYS TO SERVE THE PUBLIC AT LARGE IN A MANNER CONSISTENT WITH ITS MISSION, AND TO INCREASE ITS MEMBERSHIP BASE. ONE EXAMPLE IS THE CHANGE IN VENUE OF THE MAIN INDIAFEST CULTURAL OUTREACH EVENT FROM THE SANTA FE COMMUNITY COLLEGE GROUNDS (WHERE IT HAD BEEN HELD FOR MANY YEARS SOMEWHAT ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF TOWN), TO A LOCATION RIGHT IN THE CENTER OF TOWN AT THE BO DIDDLEY COMMUNITY PLAZA. THE EVENT, WHICH ALREADY ATTRACTED WELL OVER A THOUSAND ATTENDEES FROM ALL SECTIONS OF THE GAINESVILLE COMMUNITY, HAS NOW SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASED ITS AUDIENCE.
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt21ANOTHER EXAMPLE IS FINDING NEW AND INNOVATIVE WAYS TO ASSIST NEW UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA STUDENTS. TWO NEW INITIATIVES HAVE BEEN DISCOUNTED LUNCH COUPONS (OBTAINED BY DONATING TO A LOCAL NONPROFIT THAT PROVIDES OUTDOOR DAILY VEGETARIAN LUNCHES AT COST ON UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA GROUNDS) AND SUBSIDIZED 2-DAY STAYS AT LOCAL MOTELS WHEN THE STUDENTS INITIALLY ARRIVE IN THE COUNTRY AND ARE LOOKING FOR APARTMENTS. AS A RESULT OF THESE SERVICES, ANNUAL DUES-PAYING STUDENT MEMBERSHIPS HAVE GONE FROM NEARLY ZERO INCREASING BY APPROXIMATELY 70 EACH YEAR IN THE LAST 3 YEARS. ONE LITMUS TEST THAT INDICATES THAT THESE ACTIVITIES SERVE BROAD CROSS-SECTIONS OF THE PUBLIC IS THE SUBSIDY FOR FACILITIES AS WELL AS SPONSORSHIPS OBTAINED FROM GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS: CITY OF GAINESVILLE AND SANTA FE COLLEGE FOR INDIAFEST VENUES, UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA FOR NEW GRADUATE STUDENT ORIENTATION, INCLUDING CASH SPONSORSHIP BY THE INTERNATIONAL CENTER, AND KANAPAHA MIDDLE SCHOOL FOR THE USE OF THEIR FACILITIES FOR A COMMUNITY DANCE CONDUDIN PARTNERSHIP WITH A SISTER NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION.
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt22SCHEDULE A, PART II, SECTION C, LINE 17A
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt23PERCENTAGE OF FINANCIAL SUPPORT:
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt24PRIOR TO THE SALE OF THE OLD BUILDING IN 2017, ICECS ENTIRE REVENUE ORIGINATED FROM DONATIONS (CASH AND IN-KIND), MEMBERSHIP DUES, SPONSORSHIPS, PARTICIPATION AND ENTRANCE FEES TO EVENTS, AND INDIAN FOOD COOKED AND SOLD BY VOLUNTEERS (AN ACTIVITY THAT IS PART OF THE ORGANIZATIONS CULTURAL OUTREACH MISSION), AND NOT LEAST THE ABOVE-MENTIONED SOURCES OF SUBSIDY AND SPONSORSHIP FROM GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES. IN FACT, AFTER THE SALE OF THE BUILDING, THE ABOVE SOURCES OF REVENUE CONTINUED AND EVEN INCREASED UNTIL COVID-19 STRUCK; HOWEVER, SINCE 2020, SEVERAL OF THE - FUNDAMENTALLY IN-PERSON - EVENTS HAD TO BE CANCELLED, INCLUDING INDIAFEST, WHICH WAS CANCELLED AT THE VERY LAST MOMENT, WITH EVENT SPONSORSHIP AMOUNTS ACTUALLY BEING RETURNED TO THE SPONSORS. AS A COMBINED EFFECT OF THESE TWO DEVELOPMENTS, DURING THIS INTERIM PERIOD WHILE THE NEW BUILDING IS BEING PLANNED, AND WHILE COVID-19 IS IN SWAY, A MORE SUBSTANTIAL PART OF ICECS REVENUE ORIGINATES FROM THE ABOVEMENTIONED INVESTMENTS.
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt25IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT THIS CHANGE IN COMPOSITION OF REVENUE IS ENTIRELY TEMPORARY, AND THAT THE NON-INVESTMENT PORTION OF THE INCOME IS ARTIFICIALLY LOW DURING THIS PERIOD. THE INVESTMENT PRINCIPAL AND INCOME GENERATED DURING THIS INTERIM PERIOD HAS BEEN ESSENTIALLY SET ASIDE FOR THE NEW BUILDING. THE VARIOUS DELAYS IN EXPENDITURES FOR THE NEW BUILDING CONSTRUCTION OUTLINED EARLIER, NOT LEAST DUE TO COVID- 19, ARE UNFORTUNATE, BUT TEMPORARY.
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt26SOURCES OF SUPPORT:
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt27THE 6 ANNUAL EVENTS ATTRACT A MORE THAN 3000 PARTICIPANTS, WITH THE SINGLE LARGEST EVENT BEING INDIAFEST. IN ADDITION, THE ICEC-SPONSORED EVENTS OF SISTER ORGANIZATIONS ATTRACT FURTHER PARTICIPANTS IN THE THOUSANDS. FURTHER BENEFICIARIES - BOTH INDIVIDUALS AND OTHER COMMUNITY NONPROFITS - BENEFIT FROM FUNDRAISING, OUTGOING DONATIONS, SPONSORSHIPS AND ZERO INTEREST LOANS PROVIDED BY ICEC. THE ORGANIZATION HAS A WIDE DONOR, SPONSOR, MEMBER AND PARTICIPANT BASE, WITH NO SINGLE DONOR OR SPONSOR CONTRIBUTING MORE THAN 2% OF THE ANNUAL REVENUE.
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt28IN ADDITION, REVENUE FROM EVENTS IS COLLECTED FROM MANY MALLER TRANSACTIONS SUCH AS PARTICIPANT ENTRY FEES AND FOOD SALES BY VOLUNTEERS. FURTHERMORE, MEMBERSHIP DUES LEVELS AND TYPES (DONOR, FOUNDING, REGULAR AND STUDENT) ARE DESIGNED TO ATTRACT A WIDE VARIETY OF MEMBERS WITH BENEFITS DESIGNED APPROPRIATELY FOR EACH LEVEL AND TYPE. ICECS MISSION INCLUDES CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL OUTREACH TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC AND ACCORDINGLY APPEALS WIDELY TO A BROAD INTERESTED PUBLIC -- ANYONE CAN PARTICIPATE, DONATE, SPONSOR OR BECOME A MEMBER.
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt29REPRESENTATIVE GOVERNING BODY:
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt30AS MENTIONED, ICEC HAS NO PAID STAFF IN HOUSE. ALL ACTIVITIES ARE CONDUCTED BY VOLUNTEERS. THIS INCLUDES THE 15-MEMBER ICEC EXECUTIVE BOARD ELECTED BY THE MEMBERSHIP - ACCORDING TO THE CHARTER BYLAWS - FROM CANDIDATES NOMINATED BY THE MEMBERSHIP DURING AN OPEN CALL PERIOD.
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt31THE BOARD MEMBERS ARE REPRESENTATIVE OF DIFFERENT MEMBERSHIP CLASSES (DONOR, FOUNDER, REGULAR). ALL ARE RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUALS, WELL-KNOWN AND RESPECTED FOR THEIR LEADERSHIP AND SERVICE TO THE COMMUNITY, WHO TAKE THEIR FIDUCIARY ACCOUNTABILITY AS BOARD MEMBERS VERY SERIOUSLY. MOST ARE PROFESSIONALS (MDS, MBA, BUSINESSMAN OR PHDS), WITH A SIGNIFICANT PROPORTION BEING PROFESSORS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA (THE FLAGSHIP PUBLIC HIGHER EDUCATION AND RESEARCH INSTITUTION OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA), INCLUDING, AT VARIOUS TIMES, DISTINGUISHED PROFESSORS, DEPARTMENT CHAIRS, ELECTED MEMBERS OF THE FACULTY SENATE, AND AN ELECTED OFFICER OF THE UNITED FACULTY OF FLORIDA (STATEWIDE HIGHER EDUCATION FACULTY ASSOCIATION).
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt32THE ICEC EXECUTIVE BOARD MEETS AT LEAST ONCE A QUARTER, BUT VARIOUS COMMITTEES (ASSET PROTECTION COMMITTEE, CULTURAL COMMITTEE, YOUTH GROUP AND AD HOC COMMITTEES INCLUDING ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITTEES FOR EACH EVENT) MEET MORE OFTEN. IN ADDITION, AN ADVISORY BOARD - CONSISTING OF FORMER BOARD MEMBERS AND ACTIVE DONORS PROVIDES ADVICE AND SUPPORT TO THE EXECUTIVE BOARD.
