Reg. 1.170A-9(f)(3). Pt II Ln 17a "NLAA" is organized and operated to attract new and additional public support from its community on a continuous basis. NLAA maintains a continous and bona fide program for solicitation of funds from the community and its membership Treas. Reg. 1.170A-9(f)(3)(ii). Pt II Ln 17a NLAA annually solicits contributions from the community served by the New Lexington School District and from graduates of New Lexington High School. Such annual solicitation is conducted (i) primarily by a mail solicitation conducted in the late spring around the time of prom, graduation and NLAA's scholarship and awards banquet, (ii) through an NLAA's annual scholarship and awards banquet and (iii) through the NLAA website. The scope of this fund raising activity is reasonable in light of the NLAA's charitable purpose of providing scholarships to graduates of New Lexington High School. NLAA's solicitation activities are directed to the community that produces the recipients of NLAA's charitable activities and to persons with a past or present relationship with that community. Treas. Reg. 1.170A-9(f)(3)(ii). Pt II Ln 17a The percentage of NLAA's public support, 19.27 on this return, is higher than the minimum floor of 10% and more than half (57.8% of) the automatic mathematical public support standard of 33.3%. NLAA's percentage first dropped below 33.3%, for 2018, when it declined to 28.35%. The cause of this decline can be attributed to a $50,000 contribution from donor James G. Miller (class of 1955), rather than a decline in public support. Mr. Miller's annual contributions for the five years prior to 2018 were $10,000 in each of 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016 and $15,000 in 2017. NLAA met the 33.3% mathematical public support standard in the five years leading up to 2018. Mr. Miller was again generous in 2019 and 2020, making a contribution of $25,000 in 2019 and a contribution of $25,000 in 2020. Mr. Miller died January 19, 2021. Pt II Ln 17a NLAA percentage of public support is skewed for 2019/2020 and 2020/2021 by two factors (i) due to COVID19 restrictions, NLAA could not hold a 2020 scholarship and awards banquet or a 2021 scholarship and awards banquet and (ii) James G. Miller's unusual contribution of $25,000 in 2019/2020. With no banquet, contributions from persons other than James G. Miller dropped from $17,346 in 2018/2019 and to $4,390 in 2019/2020 and increased slightly to $6,014 in 2020/2021. James G. Miller made contributions of of $25,000 in 2019/2020 and $25,000 in 2020/2021. Treas. Reg. 1.170A-9(f)(3)(iii)(A). Pt II Ln 17a NLAA's receives support from a representative number of persons. Persons who are alumni of, or who have some other association with, New Lexington High School. Treas. Reg. 1.170A-9(f)(3)(iii)(B). Pt II Ln 17a NLAA's leadership is comprised of individuals elected pursuant to NLAA's governing documents by the members of NLAA at the annual scholarship and awards banquet. All such individuals have one common bond of with NLAA and each other; each is an alumnus of New Lexington High School. Treas. Reg. 1.170A-9(f)(3)(iii)(C). Pt II Ln 17a NLAA maintains a definitive program to accomplish is charitable work. Annually, NLAA awards scholarship to worthy graduates of New Lexington High School (approximately 550 students in four grades). From 2017 through 2021, NLAA awarded $121,575 in scholarship funds to 127 graduates; an average of $24,375 annually to 25 annual recipients, with a high of $29,785 awarded in 2019 to 29 recipients.
