Ten Percent Test: MATCH historically and normally can be expected in the future to receive over 10% of its total support from the general public; the ratio during the advance ruling period was 17% and now that the public fundraising campaign is maturing as explained below, that percentage should keep rising.(ii). Attraction of Public Support: Because MATCH is developing a new multi-venue facility that will provide a home for a broad spectrum of Houstons arts organizations, it has to-date attracted gifts from major Houston area foundations in varying amounts. The Brown Foundation pledged $1.1 million towards the capital campaign, with a total goal of raising $25 million. (iii). Percentage of Financial Support: MATCH received about 26% of its total support from public sources as reported in Part II and can reasonably expect for that ratio to remain roughly the same in the next two years. The ratio may never reach 33-1/3% due to the magnitude of the large Foundation grants, which are necessary for a construction project of this magnitude. (iv). Sources of Support: MATCH receives its support from a representative number of foundations and individuals, rather than receiving almost all of its support from the members of a single family or small group of individuals. MATCH has to-date received gifts from over 50 contributors.(v) Representative Governing Body: MATCH's governing Board and Advisory Board is composed of 25 civic and business leaders only one of whom serves on the board of a funding organization. (vi). Availability of Facilities or Services and Public Participation: MATCHs programs will impact over 100 small to mid-sized arts organizations in the Greater Houston area, and will be a new and welcoming destination for all Houstonians. We anticipate audiences of more than 200,000 in the first year alone. CONCLUSION: MATCH believes it qualifies as a publicly supported charity described in IRC 509(a)(1) pursuant to the facts and circumstances test found in Treasury Regulation 1.170A-9(f)(3). MATCH has and will continue to receive well in excess of ten percent (10%) of its total support from qualifying public sources. The facility will serve not only the broad spectrum of arts organizations, but also all residents of and visitors to the greater Houston area. MATCH is governed by a public board and possesses all the characteristics that describe organizations that meet this test.
