  • 2018 Annual Report
    2018 ANNUAL REPORT IMPACT BEYOND GRANTS GOING BEYOND FOR WESTERN NEW YORK For us, awarding grants is just a part of what we do. We support nonprofits with resources that empower them to maximize their impact on the Western New York community. “The Oishei Foundation believed in the Niagara Falls Boys & Girls Clubs when many didn’t. What they provided went “ above and beyond the funding. REBECCA VINCHESKI EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR NIAGARA FALLS BOYS & GIRLS CLUB “The Foundation disrupts the status quo with the goal of creating a community where everyone “ can thrive. ERIC YARWOOD EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR EDUCATION COLLABORATIVE OF WNY “When I was a student, the Oishei Foundation invested in me. Now I’m part of an organization that does the same thing “ for young people every day. DANIEL ROBERTSON OISHEI SCHOLAR CLASS OF 1998 MANAGER BOYS AND MEN OF COLOR INITIATIVE SAY YES BUFFALO Photo Credit: Get Fokus’d Productions For two decades, The John R. Oishei Foundation has made an impact on the Buffalo Niagara community and 2018 was no exception. Last year, we awarded nearly $12 million through 178 grants—the highest number in our history—to support a wide variety of organizations in our five focus areas. We continued our work beyond grantmaking to help expand the capacity of local nonprofits, build leadership, and connect people and organizations for greater impact. This year was one of transition as our Board Chair, James M. Wadsworth, stepped down after 17 years, and William G. Gisel, Jr. took the helm as Chair. We also welcomed Maureen Hurley, a former Rich Products executive, as our newest Trustee.
