Our goal is to stay well above that mark, as such, we have implemented new giving programs, formed strategic corporate donor relationships and have signed contracts with businesses to increase the sources of our donations and amount of our gifts. We believe that by increasing the number of donors, it will exponentially increase our overall donor dollars, establishing a more diverse and sustainable donor base. In 2022, we received gifts from 112 unique donors. That number increased by 82% in 2023 to 204 unique donors. In the first four months of 2024, we have 111 unique donors and expect that number to increase significantly based on a planned national fundraiser as well as our signed partnership with a national franchise to increase donors and dollars. We are constantly building new donor relationships with the increase of our charitable giving programs. We resumed most of our events and fundraisers in 2023 while creating new fundraisers in 2024. Although some events never recovered from the COVID pandemic and have been permanently cancelled, our largest annual fundraiser resumed in 2024 and will have a significant impact on our public support test. Our monthly giving program is also gaining momentum with new donors. To review how we fell below the percentage, we, like many non-profit organizations, faced significant funding challenges beginning in 2020 with the onset of the COVID pandemic. The Premier Foundation-Premier Arts Collective was not immune to those challenges, resulting in falling short of the 33.33% public support test. Since 2020, our organization was forced to cancel no less than nine major public fundraisers and events that helped drive our past public funding in addition to seeing a giving decline with many donors. Fortunately, one of our donors felt it was important to support a number of charities during and post-pandemic to keep our and other organizations afloat, thus, increasing donations to Premier. Unfortunately, the amount of the gifts skewed the public support ratio. I firmly believe in the next couple of years we should comfortably eclipse the minimum requirement of 33.33% with the success of the above-mentioned programs. Note: As for any of our donors, it is not guaranteed that they will continue to give on an annual basis, the same holds true for our generous donor over the last few years. We clearly understand the significance and importance of donor balance and we are moving forward to remedy the challenge at hand. Thank you for your consideration.
