Due to the life-changing COVID pandemic in 2020, we were not alone in the forced cancellation of numerous events and fundraising efforts. A generous donor felt it was important to ensure that numerous ministries stayed afloat during that period. As a result, during that timeframe we began to fall below the 33.33% public support test. It has been a slow, methodical process to regain our footing from 2020 and the years that followed. We made our greatest strides in 2025 to return to the 33.33% threshold once again, jumping from 13.34% to 21.42%. We launched a nationwide fundraiser that led to more than 19,000 unique donors for the year, up from 380 in 2024. Our strategic relationships are also working, as we kicked off a national fundraising event in 2026 with one of our corporate partners. We have a renewed focus in 2026 on raising funds through local, state and federal grants. We are pleased to report that we have been successful with all grants written thus far in 2026. The Premier Foundation-Premier Arts Collective continues to solicit funds from the public through direct mail campaigns, quarterly newsletters, our website, social media, events, and corporate philanthropy. At the heart of our efforts is always a focus on building donor relationships. We are committed to maintaining our programs as they provide life-changing support for veterans, women in recovery, survivors of sexual trauma, underserved children and youth, incarcerated men and so many more. In addition to our Board of Directors, we are in the early stages of developing an Advisory Council, a team of community leaders, experts and philanthropic individuals who can assist with our outreach and solicitation efforts. We clearly understand the significance and importance of donor retention and balance and are moving forward to remedy the challenge at hand. Thank you for your consideration.
