2016 ANNUAL REPORT

UNION COUNTY FOUNDATION

Invest Today . Shape Tomorrow.

A MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

2016 - The Year in Review

We are grateful for another year of growth at the Union County Foundation. Our menu of Funds has increased to over 90 which represents a healthy 10% increase from last year. And it seems like every time we turn around we are receiving an inquiry asking how to start a scholarship fund. Through the outstanding efforts of UCF Director of Finance Sue Devine, our online scholarship platform continues to be among our finest offerings. Students, school guidance counselors, recommendation letter writers, and application evaluators all agree the program is outstanding. We are proud to have awarded in excess of $500,000 in scholarships over the last five years. The Foundation’s charitable reach is substantial but nothing we do is more important than supporting post secondary education through these scholarships.

Also of note in 2016 we successfully hosted our second annual Marysville Charity Car Show and UCF Covered Bridges Tour (cycling event). Both of these events serve to create awareness about the Foundation and to raise important dollars in support of our operations.

At our annual Foundation Celebration event we were pleased to be able to honor the Lee Family of Marysville. The Lee’s have been friends and supporters of the Foundation for four generations. Gary Lee was a founding trustee and in many ways responsible for the Foundation’s trajectory of growth. Thank you Gary and family!

Each year brings new challenges and new opportunities to our staff and board. Our pledge is to continue to work diligently to advance the Foundation and in turn make our Union County Communities even better places to live, work, and raise our families. With the help of the fine people who support us, we will continue to be a positive influence and a catalyst for “good.”

Special thanks to the men and women that comprised our 2016 board of trustees: Chad Hoffman (Chr.), Mardy Hanlon-Stolte (Vice Chr.) David Allen (Treas.), Dr. Victor Trianfo (Sect.), Dr. Charlotte Agnone, Ken Boehm, Jim Cox, Bruce Daniels, Eugene Mayer, Joseph Mitchell, Dr. Jennifer Morrison, Chris Schmenk, Alan Seymour, Jim Vandre, Carol Young Ph.D., and Ron Zimmerly.

1 UNDERSTANDING COMMUNITY FOUNDATIONS

The community foundation field is one of the fastest growing philan- thropic sectors in the United States today. Community foundations build and strengthen communities in a multitude of ways, including providing the means for a wide range of donors to create permanent funds to meet critical needs. Though the first community foundation was launched just 100 years ago in Cleveland, Ohio, today there are more than 750 community foundations in the United States.

The concept has spread throughout the world, with community founda- tions now in countries including Australia, Canada, Germany, Italy, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, Poland, Russia, Slovakia, South Africa and the United Kingdom – in fact, every continent but Antarctica has at least one community foundation. It has been estimated that there are at least 1,000 community foundations outside the United States and Can- ada.

Community foundations in the United States are located in almost eve- ry region and state in the country. Community foundations grant funds to a wide variety of causes—urban affairs, the arts, education, environ- mental projects, health and disaster relief. Community foundations of- fer donors many services and benefits. They routinely work with fami- lies, individuals, attorneys and estate and financial planners to design gift plans that fit every economic situation, ensuring that donors re- ceive the most benefit from their charitable contributions and that their philanthropic dollars are used to the fullest extent.

Community foundations accept gifts of various sizes and types from private citizens, local corporations, other foundations and government agencies. Nearly every type of gift—real estate, closely held stock, art- work and insurance—can be contributed to a community foundation. Gifts are made from bequests and by living donors through various types of funds and deferred giving vehicles. Community foundations range greatly in asset size, but all named funds share the common goal of serving donors, nonprofit organizations, and the community. In addi- tion to this, one of a community foundation’s special functions is to pro- vide effective leadership and coordinate the needs and services in its communities, so that charitable gifts are used effectively to fulfill a community’s most critical needs. 2 2016 FOUNDATION OFFICERS
