IRS990ScheduleA/FactsAndCircumstancesTestTxt0The Friends of Faraday exists to support the public understanding of science and religion by contributing to the Faraday Institute for Science and Religion in Cambridge, UK, a public charity that is connected to the University of Cambridge. Our Board of Directors consists of three highly-qualified, unrelated individuals, all academics, a biologist (Dr. Grant Casady), a mathematician (Dr. Kelsey Marcinko), and a theologian (Dr. Jonathan Moo). We ordinarily have no trouble meeting the 33 1/3 % test and in fact were at 100% for this every year from 2017 through 2022 and expect to be there again. The special circumstances that have pushed us below that level are that we ran a major campaign in 2023 to raise support for the Faraday Institute, and a very generous foundation (unrelated to any of us but who became aware of the Faraday Institute and our public campaign) gave us a surprising and unprecedented gift of $503,000 and another unrelated individual who also became aware of the campaign unexpectedly donated $125,000. In every other of the last five years, our total contributions received have been no more than 12,600 in any given year. This year (2024), the total is $10,684, from several different donors, and none of them either of those two major donors of 2023. So it was just one exceptional year with two unexpected major donations that is preventing us from otherwise easily meeting the 33 1/3 % test.
