TREAS. REG. SEC. 1.170A-9(F)(3) PROVIDES THAT AN ORGANIZATION MAY BE TREATED AS "PUBLICLY SUPPORTED" UNDER THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES TEST EVEN IF IT FAILS TO MEET THE 33 1/3 PERCENT MECHANICAL TEST. UNDER THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES TEST, AN ORGANIZATION WILL BE TREATED AS PUBLICLY SUPPORTED IF IT NORMALLY RECEIVED A SUBSTANTIAL PART OF ITS SUPPORT FROM GOVERNMENTAL UNITS, FROM DIRECT OR INDIRECT CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC, OR FROM A COMBINATION OF THESE SOURCES, AND MEETS CERTAIN OTHER REQUIREMENTS. THE PERTINENT FACTORS SET FORTH IN THE REGULATIONS ARE DISCUSSED BELOW: I) ATTRACTION OF PUBLIC SUPPORT: GORDON FAMILY GIVING FOUNDATION WAS ORGANIZED IN 2019 AND IS TAX-EXEMPT UNDER IRC SEC. 501(C)(3). GORDON FAMILY GIVING FOUNDATION RECEIVES SUPPORT FROM VARIOUS INDIVIDUALS AND OTHER NON-GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES THAT ARE INTERESTED IN HELPING TO PROVIDE OPPORTUNITY THROUGH SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING AND MATH EDUCATION TO UNDERSERVED AND UNDERREPRESENTED YOUNG STUDENTS. CURRENTLY, GORDON FAMILY GIVING FOUNDATION HAS A PROGRAM TO SOLICIT DONATIONS FROM THE PUBLIC ON A CONTINUOUS BASIS THROUGH ITS WEBSITE AND VARIOUS OUTREACH PROGRAMS. II) PERCENTAGE OF PUBLIC SUPPORT UNDER THE REGULATIONS, THE HIGHER THE PERCENTAGE OF SUPPORT ABOVE THE 10% REQUIREMENT FROM PUBLIC SOURCES THE LESSER WILL BE THE BURDEN OF ESTABLISHING THE PUBLICLY SUPPORTED NATURE OF THE ORGANIZATION THROUGH OTHER FACTORS. THE PERCENTAGE OF SUPPORT RECEIVED FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024, IS 19.85%. III) SOURCES OF SUPPORT GORDON FAMILY GIVING FOUNDATION EXCEEDS THE 10% MINIMUM THRESHOLD BY DERIVING SUPPORT FROM UNRELATED CORPORATE CONTRIBUTIONS AS WELL AS CONTRIBUTIONS FROM ORGANIZATIONS EXEMPT FROM TAX UNDER IRC 501(C)(3), RATHER THAN RECEIVING ALMOST ALL OF ITS SUPPORT FROM THE MEMBERS OF A SINGLE FAMILY OR ORGANIZATION. GORDON FAMILY GIVING FOUNDATIONS' ACTIVITIES APPEAL TO A BROAD CROSS-SECTION OF PERSONS IN THE DENVER LANDO AREA WHO ARE INTERESTED IN SUPPORTING A SYSTEM THAT PROVIDES GREATER OPPORTUNITY TO YOUNG STUDENTS TO CONTINUE TO FURTHER THEIR EDUCATION. IV) REPRESENTATIVE GOVERNING BODY GORDON FAMILY GIVING FOUNDATION'S GOVERNING BODY INCLUDES FIVE INDIVIDUALS, ALL INDEPENDENT FROM ONE ANOTHER AND REPRESENT THE INTERESTS OF THE YOUNG STUDENTS THE ORGANIZATION SERVES. V) PUBLIC PARTICIPATION IN PROGRAMS OR POLICIES GORDON FAMILY GIVING FOUNDATION PROVIDES SERVICES DIRECTLY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE YOUNG STUDENT POPULATION ON A CONTINUING BASIS BY PROVIDING VALUABLE RESOURCES AND OPPORTUNITIES TO THOSE THAT ARE UNDERSERVED AND UNDERREPRESENTED.
