20 15 annual report

2015 Annual Report RichlandCountyFoundation.org 1 2015 will be remembered as one of the most impactful years in the 70-year history of the Richland County Foundation. We began the year by moving into our newly renovated office in January. Thanks to the generosity of a family, which spanned three generations; the Foundation was able to realize its long-term vision of having a permanent home. The Ritter House located at 181 South Main Street presented the perfect opportunity for the Foundation to make an investment into a neighborhood in transition and to demonstrate our mantra: For Good. For Ever. The renovated house also represents a new welcome sign to visitors to the county seat from its southern portal, pointing to the exciting revitalization of Mansfield’s central business district. Acting on the initiative of being a driver of social capital, the Foundation committed to a five-year economic development investment plan. It is an exciting time as economic development organizations of Richland County are working collectively to strengthen existing economic development entities engaged in workforce development, business retention and expansion, support of emerging entrepreneurs, and organizational development assistance for burgeoning local businesses. The economic development investment strategy is one of three significant initiatives established this year by the Foundation. The Foundation also invested in two nonprofit capacity building projects, the Osborne Meese Academy and Richland Gives. The Osborne Meese Academy is a three-pronged approach to nonprofit capacity building and includes education, professional support and grant writing assistance. To further assist nonprofit agencies, the Foundation hosted a day of giving called Richland Gives. The day was designed to encourage everyone to contribute to local nonprofits through a single giving website. The goals were to build capacity, grow philanthropy and make the community stronger. All told in 2015, you will see on the following pages examples of the $4.3 million fund holders of the Richland County Foundation invested in their communities. It is a testament to the growth of community foundations’ expanding role in philanthropy.

Richland County Foundation 2015 Annual Report 7 $1.1 M investment in economic development The Foundation invested $1.1 million in a transformative five-year plan to address local business retention and expansion, workforce development and entrepreneurship. The RCF engaged JumpStart Inc. to lead this new effort along with a consortium that includes Team NEO and New Growth Group. Proactive grant making is new to the RCF. Since it was founded in 1945, the Foundation has fostered philanthropy, accepted applications for funding from local nonprofits and awarded grants totaling more than $69 million. The Foundation is committed to continuing its support of nonprofit organizations. Meanwhile, the Foundation has had many funding requests over the past few years from economic development organizations, but the effectiveness of those programs has been difficult to measure and often is not linked to local organizations doing similar work.

Many business retention and expansion visits were made including one to Skybox Packaging with Marc Miller and Marty Rice and Ohio Dreams with Chris “We are not the economic developers.
