  • 2016-17 Annual Report
    1 1 2016-17 ANNUAL REPORT Students, Faculty, Staff, Neighbors & Friends of Chatfield: Chatfield College recently completed the 2016-2017 school and fiscal year. Many milestones were achieved, and a graduating class fifty nine-strong was launched with inspiring and motivating words from Chatfield alumna DeAnna Hoskins ’03. (See page 4 for a graduation feature. Better yet, go to www.chatfield.edu/commencementspeech to see a graduation slide show including the actual audio of DeAnna’s memorable and moving commencement address.) After the ceremony, graduates, families, friends, faculty, neighbors and staff were the first to see and experience the renovated and expanded Welcome Center. A year of messy and dusty construction culminated in a new dining and gathering space for everyone, reconfigured offices for the Site Director, Admissions staff and Financial Aid department, a comfortable waiting area, plus plenty of student-only seating and activity rooms to enhance the experience for St. Martin students for decades to come. (See photos on pages 8-9.) The Welcome Center project, like the opening of the award-winning Cincinnati Campus in Over-the-Rhine the prior year, was made possible by the loyal and generous members of the entire Chatfield family of donors and supporters who contributed to the “Building Community” capital campaign. That campaign, scheduled to last a half-decade (2013-2018), was completed a year early, in June, having achieved its lofty goal of $5 million in gifts and pledges. Thank you to all who invested in this campaign, and more importantly, invested in our students. The past year, like most, was not without challenges.

    22nd Annual Voices of Giving Awards Ceremony August 6, 2020 7:00 pm YouTube Premiere Presented by: The Greater Cincinnati Planned Giving Council Voices of Giving is presented by the Greater Cincinnati Planned Giving Council to encourage people from all walks of life to make a bequest or planned gift to their favorite charity or nonprofit. The Voices of Giving Awards pay tribute to those Greater Cincinnatians who -- out of selflessness, generosity, and foresight -- have chosen to make a bequest or planned gift to a favorite charitable organization. These individuals represent the true spirit of giving, which truly enhances the quality of life in our community, both now and far into the future. Recognizing that a professional advisor frequently plays a pivotal role in bringing these gifts about, advisors are often honored, as well, for their work with a donor in developing a planned gift. It is our privilege to recognize a very special group of individuals who exemplify philanthropic support and service and who have made a dedicated gesture to ensure the long-term welfare of the many local charitable organizations and nonprofits that make Greater Cincinnati so special. Our grateful thanks! 2020 Voices of Giving Committee Carol Serrone & Michelle Zeis – Co-Chairs Lillian Derkson, Misty Griesinger, David Harris, Bill Hitch, Michelle Mancini, Lisa Roberts-Rosser, Becky Timberlake, Dan Virzi and Felicia Zakem The 22nd Annual Voices of Giving Awards Ceremony PROGRAM Welcome Raynal Moore 2020 President, Greater Cincinnati Planned Giving Council

  • A Regional Study of Secular and Sectarian Orphanages and Their Response to Progressive Era Child-Saving Reforms, 1880-1930
    Closer Connections: A Regional Study of Secular and Sectarian Orphanages and Their Response to Progressive Era Child-Saving Reforms, 1880-1930 A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In the Department of History of the College of Arts and Sciences by Debra K. Burgess B.A. University of Cincinnati June 2012 M.A. University of Cincinnati April 2014 Committee Chair: Mark A. Raider, Ph.D. 24:11 Abstract Closer Connections: A Regional Study of Secular and Sectarian Orphanages and Their Response to Progressive Era Child-Saving Reforms, 1880-1930 by Debra K. Burgess Child welfare programs in the United States have their foundation in the religious traditions brought to the country up through the late nineteenth century by immigrants from many European nations. These programs were sometimes managed within the auspices of organized religious institutions but were also found among the ad hoc efforts of religiously- motivated individuals. This study analyzes how the religious traditions of Catholicism, Judaism, and Protestantism established and maintained institutions of all sizes along the lines of faith- based dogma and their relationship to American cultural influences in the Midwest cities of Cincinnati, Cleveland, and Pittsburgh during the period of 1880-1930. These influences included: the close ties between (or constructive indifference exhibited by) the secular and sectarian stakeholders involved in child-welfare efforts, the daily needs of children of immigrants orphaned by parental disease, death, or desertion, and the rising influence of social welfare professionals and proponents of the foster care system.
