ANNUAL REPORT 2001 TRUSTEES' LETTER

It has been a year of growth and refinement for the Nina Mason Pulliam Charitable Trust. Our grantees continued to build better realities for the families and communities they serve. In a year that we all shared the tragedy and horror of September 11, the Trust’s mission seemed especially appropriate and comforting.

Our grantmaking supported the efforts of 197 nonprofit organizations primarily in Arizona and Indiana with $18,077,949 in funding Frank E. Russell commitments to help people in need, protect animals and nature Trustee Chairman and enrich the quality of life in our communities and neighborhoods.

We continued to hold our grant award presentations at grantee sites. These events showcase the work of our grantee organizations and provide a forum for them to meet each other. Collaborative efforts have been realized as a result of these interactions. In Indianapolis, we held these events at the Benedict Inn Retreat and Conference Center, Indiana Historical Society and Old Centrum. In Phoenix, Society of St. Vincent de Paul, Friendly House’s Joseph I. Flores Academia del Pueblo School and the Church of the Beatitudes hosted our events.

Carol Peden Schatt 2001 introduced an exciting signature program for the Trust. The Nina Trustee Mason Pulliam Legacy Scholars program provides nontraditional students in Arizona and Indiana the opportunity to receive a college education. Nina Pulliam believed that education is a tool for people to realize their dreams and a better life for their children. The Nina Scholars program honors her commitment to families and education and takes the Trust’s primary giving area of helping people in need to a higher level.

Upon Nina Mason Pulliam’s death in March of 1997, her assets, at her direction, were placed into an irrevocable charitable trust to support the causes she loved in her home states of Arizona and Indiana. Since the Trust began its grantmaking in 1998, it has provided $56,345,406 Nancy M. Russell Trustee in total funding commitments to 396 nonprofit organizations.

27 Nina Mason Pulliam (1906-1997) was a journalist, a business leader, a humanitarian and a lover of all creatures.

Nina Mason Pulliam was born in 1906 in rural Martinsville, Indiana, one of seven children. As a high school sophomore, she received her first compensation for a literary essay. She went on to study journalism at Franklin College in Franklin, Indiana, and later attended Indiana University and the University of New Mexico. After college, she took a full-time job at Farm Life, a national magazine published in Spencer, Indiana. When the magazine folded during the Depression, she went to work in Lebanon, Indiana, for an ambitious newspaper publisher named Eugene C. Pulliam. They were married in 1941.

During their marriage, the Pulliams traveled abroad extensively as a husband and wife writing team. They were among the first Americans to visit and write about post-World War II conditions in Europe. Over 11 years, Nina Pulliam was published in newspapers throughout North America and her articles were compiled into seven books.

Nina Pulliam was the founding secretary-treasurer and a director of Central Newspapers, Inc. which Mr. Pulliam had established in 1934. Upon his death in 1975, she served as president of CNI until 1979 and was publisher of The Arizona Republic and The Phoenix Gazette until 1978.

She was the first woman admitted to Sigma Delta Chi, now the Society of Professional Journalists. Mrs. Pulliam also loved flying and was the first woman to earn a private pilot's license in Indiana. She was known for her lifelong love of animals and for her nature conservancy efforts.

Nina Pulliam was a compassionate business and civic leader, devoting many hours to civic, charitable and community work. During her career she shared her financial success and business leadership skills with many charities in Indianapolis and Phoenix.

29 I learned this, at least by my experiment; That if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, And endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, He will meet with a success unexpected in common hours...

In proportion as he simplifies his life, The laws of the universe will appear less complex, And solitude will not be solitude, Nor poverty, poverty Nor weakness, weakness.

If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; That is where they should be. Now put foundations under them.

From Walden Pond Thoreau 1828-1862
