DATA SOURCES NATIONAL CENTER FOR CHARITABLE STATISTICS (NCCS) NCCS collects and disseminates the most extensive data on the number and financial characteristics of the nonprofit sector through its website. The website contains summary statistics for each state and the nation as a whole, compiled from their more detailed databases that are available electronically for a modest charge. One detailed database (CORE File) is a set of files for each state that contains information for each reporting nonprofit drawn from their most recent IRS Form 990 filing. There are separate files for public charities, foundations, and other categories of nonprofits. (This report uses the 2003 CORE File, the most current at the time of the preparation of the report.) The other detailed database (Business Master File) is a set of files for each state that contains information for each registered nonprofit drawn also taken from IRS filings. These databases have less extensive data on each nonprofit, but contain both reporting and non-reporting organizations. (This report uses the 2005 Business Master File, the most current at the time of the report.) This report has relied heavily on the CORE File for Alaska prepared by the NCCS, particularly for financial information. When using this data, however, there are a number of caveats to keep in mind: First, little information is available about religious organizations, which as a group may constitute the largest segment of the nonprofit sector in terms of both the number of organizations and their assets. These nonprofits may file for an individual tax exemption or they may file an omnibus return for their entire congregation and affiliated organization or denomination nationally. They are not required to file Form 990 returns, although some do so voluntarily. Thus, it is impossible to get complete information regarding this nonprofit subsector from the IRS. Second, there is a lack of information on small organizations. Those with annual revenues of less than $5,000 are not required to apply for tax-exempt status or to file a Form 990 tax return. Those with gross receipts of more than $5,000 but less than $25,000 are not required to file a Form 990 tax return, although they are required to file for tax- exempt status. Some of these organizations may complete Form 990, but the IRS does not report this information. (The lack of information on small nonprofits does not materially affect the results of this study as most of these organizations have no employees and together account for less than 1 percent of the total assets in the nonprofit sector.) Third, the IRS does not verify the correctness of the Form 990 information submitted by nonprofit organizations. Institute of Social and Economic Research, University of Alaska Anchorage 1 of 124 The Foraker Group Nonprofit Report: Appendix December 2006 Fourth, the Business Master File is cumulative and includes all the relatively recent financial data available, but some of the information in the file may be several years old. For example, if an organization meets the $25,000 revenue threshold one year and files a Form 990, that information remains in the database and is not changed until the organization again meets the filing threshold. It is unlikely, however, that these errors are serious enough to materially affect the results of this study. Fifth, the IRS allows national organizations to file a single omnibus return for all affiliates in all states. In that case, all of the activities of the organization will be reported in the home state, although the names of the affiliates in each state will be included in the file. There are many nonprofits operating in Alaska that are reported in other states, and the organization of the CORE File makes it impossible to find those organizations in the database. Thus, the database for Alaska consists of those nonprofits that report from or have their home registration in Alaska. Sixth, since the IRS Master File is cumulative and organizations remain in the database until they notify the IRS that they have ceased operations, if a non-operating nonprofit does not notify the IRS, it will remain in the database and the total number will be overstated. Seventh, the functional categories (NTEE categories) into which individual organizations are placed in the database do not always reflect their actual activities; the categories of many organizations are unknown; and many organizations are arbitrarily assigned to one category when, in fact, the organization provides services across several categories (for example, an organization may provide recreational services to troubled youth and could consequently be placed in any of three different categories). Finally, the CORE File does not contain all the information reported on the IRS Form 990. In particular, the file reports the contributions component of revenues in the aggregate. Thus, it is not possible to separate government grants from personal and business contributions in describing revenue sources. INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE (IRS) The IRS is the primary source of data on tax-exempt organizations. Using the returns filed by tax-exempt organizations, the IRS produces databases known as the Business Master File for Exempt Organizations and the IRS Return Transactions File. The former data file includes all organizations that have applied for and received tax-exempt status. The latter includes all organizations that have filed a Form 990 information return. These files are used by the NCCS in the preparation of their databases. The IRS prepares national summary reports on the finances of the nonprofit sector on an occasional basis using this data. The IRS also disseminates information on personal contributions reported by income tax filers by state each year through its Statistics of Income (SOI) program. Institute of Social and Economic Research, University of Alaska Anchorage 2 of 124 The Foraker Group Nonprofit Report: Appendix December 2006 GUIDESTAR The Guidestar Web site provides free access to the Form 990 informational tax returns of every nonprofit which files (as well as the Form 990 PF returns of private foundations). ALASKA DEPARTMENT OF LAW Charitable organizations that solicit funds within Alaska must register annually. The Department maintains a list of these organizations, many of which are located outside the state. The registration form includes financial information about the organization. ALASKA DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT The state maintains a master list of all nonprofits registered in Alaska. The information in the file is limited and excludes any financial or other operational data. The list contains a large number of inactive and dissolved nonprofits. ALASKA DEPARTMENT OF LABOR The state reports the number of employees of the 100 largest private firms operating in Alaska, including a number of nonprofit organizations.

  • Arctic Winter Games Exhibit Documents History
    Arctic Winter Games exhibit documents history When George V. Smith began collecting lapel pins from the Arctic Winter Games (AWG) in 1992, he had no idea that this would eventually lead to a museum exhibit. His collection grew with each passing game and in 2001 he began to solicit donations from those who participated in earlier years in an effort to amass a definitive collection for the Alaska State Museum. The collection is nearly complete and totals almost 1,000 pins. Smith’s efforts led to the development of an exhibition on the history and organization of the Arctic Winter Game to coincide with the hosting of the Arctic Winter Games. The exhibition, titled simply Arctic Winter Games, was organized by the Alaska State Museum in Juneau, with Smith as guest curator. The exhibit describes the evolution of the Games, the sports, awards and cultural activities, as well as the Games’ organizational structure. In addition to the collection of AWG-related pins, the show features photo panels, jackets, team clothing, sports equipment, emblems, mascots and other paraphernalia. Smith has also written labels to accompany the exhibit describing the Games and their history. Smith said, “While the pin collection may have been the impetus for building an AWG collection for the Alaska State Museum, it could never have happened without the generous donations of clothing, posters, and other materials by many AWG enthusiasts from Alaska, Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Northern Alberta.” The Arctic Winter Games are staged every two years in either Alaska, Canada, or Greenland. Northern cities compete with each other for the privilege of hosting the Games, much like the Olympic Games host cities.

Funding Plan: Total Project Cost: $129,000 Funding Already Secured: ($82,000) FY2014 State Funding Request: ($47,000) Project Deficit: $0 Funding Details: FY14-$47,000 requested Detailed Project Description and Justification: The Fire Marshall has forbidden the continued use of the Tanana Valley State Fair Show Arena for animal shows. This means that no matter rain or shine, children and adults will be showing their livestock animals outside in the elements. Approximately 244,000 people are impacted by the North Pole Ptarmigan 4-H Club Petting Zoos. Through their petting zoos, 4-H not only educates the public about livestock animals that the 4-H youth raise, and take care of, they also share how the animals are there to supply us with our food. Petting Zoos are held at the Tanana Valley Fairgrounds every year (200,000 visitors) and have also been held at the Fairbanks Downtown Solstice (40,000 visitors), Farmer's Market (3,000 visitors), at the Noel Wein Library (444 participants), North Pole Library (200 participants), North Pole Elementary (540 students), Badger Elementary (500 students) Pioneer Home (70 residents and staff), Vacation Bible School (200 participants), and North Pole 4th of July Parade (500 visitors).

  • 2018 Arctic Winter Games
    2020 ARCTIC WINTER GAMES MISSION STAFF APPLICATION PACKAGE The Arctic Winter Games (AWG) are an international multi-sport and cultural event that will bring together 1,500 athletes from the Northwest Territories (NWT), Yukon, Nunavut, Alaska, Greenland, Russia, Nunavik, Northern Alberta and the Indigenous people of Norway and Finland (Sápmi). The concept of the AWG was developed as a direct result of the experiences of Northern athletes at the 1967 Canada Winter Games. Representatives of the Yukon and NWT realized that their teams were at a disadvantage due to relatively small athletic pools, lack of facilities and infrequent training opportunities. Therefore, the concept of an event specifically designed for Northern athletes was born. The first Games were staged in 1970 in Yellowknife, NWT, and have taken place every two years since, alternating between participating jurisdictions. The 2020 are the 50th anniversary of the Games and are going to be held back in Whitehorse Yukon from March 15-21, 2020. Team Yukon is seeking enthusiastic, dedicated and experienced sport volunteers. Mission Staff play a key role in the success of a well-managed team. Team Yukon is preparing to have a group of representatives who will operate under the direction of the Chef de Mission, and will be assigned to work with, and disseminate information to a designated sport(s) before and during the Games. Mission Staff must possess strong communication and administration skills and be able to work within a fast-paced environment. Mission Staff must possess a balance of the technical understanding and competency in a particular sport with the ability to communicate and engage youth.

  • Historical Perspectives of Sports Tourism
    Journal of Sport Tourism 9(1), 2004, 5–101 Historical perspectives of sports tourism John Zauhar Sport Tourism International Council .................................................................................................................................... PREAMBLE ‘In 1992, there were 1.3 million people arriving in a country outside that of their residence and spending an average of $764 million on accommodations, meals, entertainment and shopping’ (Segal, 1987). Total international tourist arrivals for 1989 have been established by the World Tourism Organization (WTO) at 405.3 million. And travel and tourism contribution to the world economy amounted to $US2 trillion in sales. In effect, the European Council on Development has deter- mined that, by the year 2000, the tourism industry will be the largest in the world (World Tourism Organization, 1994). Whereas in previous decades tourism has been largely shaped by transport technol- ogy advances, the future decade will be determined by a number of factors, already evidenced: socio-demographic changes; electronic information and communication systems; more knowledgeable and demanding consumers; de-regulatory market place (Fridgen, 1991: 3–26). Some influences on, and determinants of, tourism activity in the 1990-2000 period will be: the scale and variety of tourism development in all types of tourism destinations; the growing interest in peoples and cultures of developing countries; increases in the number of consumers with free time, financial ability and interest to travel; the growing importance of ethnic ties between different nations. Prime examples of market niche targeting related to sports, according to the WTO forecast, are: sailing, yachting, scuba diving, golfing, resort holidays and island hopping. Themed holidays are also becoming popular, accounting for a significant proportion of total tourist demands – approaching the stage of mainstream holiday rather than the traditional ‘beach’ sequence (McCourt, 1989: 13).

The concept of a CSC began more than 15 years ago with a pilot centre in Calgary. Since that time, the concept of dedicated multi-sport training and support facilities for athletes and coaches has also proven beneficial in Victoria, Vancouver, Saskatoon/Regina, Winnipeg, Toronto, Montreal and Atlantic Canada. While each Centre is unique in its facilities and scale of services, all share a common mission and vision.
