With- in its covers are set forth the 3^eatier social and economic conditions under which lives a thriving, eager commonwealth. As Sir Thomas More presented to the world Utopia, the model state, so we, using that as our guide, have un- dertaken to present Wellesley, the model institute for women. We pray you, gentle reader, as you turn the pages, to yield yourself to the broadening influ- ence of our own peculiar brand of impersonal impartiality. Soar to our exalted attitude of mind — eschew the ancient vulgarity which loves to jest at personal foibles ; for we have learned in our recently enlightened sphere that such is too utterlv utter! €'liaptcr <Onc Cije ^m auti Cxpeiienceti of tl)r iLanti goavtl of i'vu5tcc6 SAMUEL B.

    2019 Annual Report p1 April 2020 To our partners: Times have changed dramatically here in Rhode Island — and around the world — since the end of 2019; we are in the midst of an unprece- dented health and economic crisis. Community foundations are poised to respond in times like these, as both immediate and long-term needs present themselves. In mid-March, we established the COVID-19 Response Fund which has deployed — and will continue to deploy — financial resources to nonprofit organizations that are on the front line of COVID-19 response for our state. We will continue to stay connected to the community and to use all of the tools at our disposal to respond with urgency, and with an eye toward our state's collective, long-term success.
