IRS990ScheduleA/FactsAndCircumstancesTestTxt0GREEN BERKSHIRES, INC. NORMALLY RECEIVES A SUBSTANTIAL PART OF ITS SUPPORT FROM DIRECT AND INDIRECT CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC, GOVERNMENT AND OTHER NON-PROFIT SOURCES. THEY HAVE A DIVERSE GOVERNING BODY THAT REPRESENTS THE BROAD INTEREST OF THE PUBLIC IN ADVOCATING FOR THE NATURAL RESOURCES IN THE BERKSHIRES OF MASSACHUSETTS. BECAUSE OF THEIR ADVOCACY THEY ATTRACT NEW AND ADDITIONAL DONORS ANNUALLY. DUE TO THE DEATH OF THE FATHER OF THE BOARD TREASURER IN 2012, GREEN BERKSHIRES, INC. RECEIVED A SUBSTANTIAL BEQUEST FROM THIS INDIVIDUAL'S ESTATE. THE PROCEEDS WERE RECEIVED BY GREEN BERKSHIRES IN 2012, 2013 AND 2014 CAUSING THEM TO FAIL THE 33 1/3% SUPPORT TEST IN 2013, 2014 AND 2015 AND MOST LIKELY UNTIL THE YEARS OF THE GIFTS FALL OFF THE PUBLIC SUPPORT AVERAGING SCHEDULE. IF IT WERE NOT FOR THIS GIFT FROM THE ESTATE THE ORGANIZATION WOULD HAVE MET THE 33 1/3% SUPPORT TEST IN 2013, 2014 AND 2015.
