(the "Foundation") is organized as a private non-operating foundation with the purpose of making a positive impact and difference in communities throughout Maine. The Foundation does this predominantly through grants to qualified public charities and public schools, though the Foundation may from time-to-time administer grant-making programs for individuals experiencing severe financial hardship or medical emergencies; the Foundation does not award grants to individuals for study, travel, scholarship, or other similar purposes. The Foundation uses an objective and thorough evaluation and documentation process to evaluate the extent to which any individual requires assistance before providing any funds or support, and the Foundation ensures that all payments made to relieve individual hardships are in compliance with the taxable expenditure and self-dealing restrictions imposed on private foundations. The Foundation awards such individual assistance without regard to a recipient's gender, creed, race, age, or national origin. The Foundation also maintains records to support and substantiate all grants made to or for the direct benefit of individuals. The Foundation considers identifiable, sudden, and unexpected hardships to include, but not be limited to: serious illness, injury, or medical conditions; casualty or theft-loss to personal residence or work facilities; civil unrest; and/or any qualified disaster event. The Foundation considers such individual hardship relief to individuals with desperate financial needs to be consistent with furthering a charitable purpose within the meaning of Section 501(c)(3) and 170(2)(B) of the Code; the Foundation considers persons who are unable to financially care for themselves as a result of a severe hardship to be proper objects of charity. Furthermore, for the year covered by this tax return, the Foundation did not make any grants to any single individuals over $1,000 in value, and all individuals to receive direct assistance from the Foundation were deemed to be indigent as defined under the IRS Instructions for Form 990-PF.
