Our goal is to stay well above that mark, as such, we have made significant progress. Our new giving programs and strategic corporate donor relationships are working, allowing us to comfortably exceed the public threshold. We know that by increasing the number of donors, it will exponentially increase our overall donations. From 2022 through 2024, we increased our number of unique donors by more than 200%, from 112 to 380. In the first four months of 2025, we now have nearly 19,000 unique donors, resulting in a significant shift in the public charity status ratio. We continue to build donor relationships with the increase of our charitable giving programs. We have created new fundraisers and have resumed old ones that were paused due to COVID. 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 the pandemic and throughout the aftermath to keep the organizations afloat, thus, increasing donations to Premier. Unfortunately, the amount of the gifts skewed the public support ratio. We are now solidly on the path of eclipsing the minimum requirement of 33.33%. 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.
