His exhilarating journey, filled with humor and music, abounds with charm — as well as dazzling stagecraft and enchanting effects. A cast of two-dozen actors recreates over sixty immortal characters in this heartwarming, timeless tale. This guide is designed — through its essays, discussion questions and classroom activities — to give students both an introduction to, and a point of entry for, a personal exploration of A Christmas Carol.

PRESIDENT’S LETTER The Foundation continues to have a commitment to the economic revitalization of the city of Cleveland and Northeast Ohio. A major new initiative by the Foundation, developed in collaboration with other funders, and the photographic essay in this annual report are reflective of that important concern. The George Gund Foundation is pleased to be one of the leading proponents of the $30 million Fund for Our Economic Future. We believe that philanthropy can play an important catalytic role in reshaping the regional economy, and we are dedicated to supporting this effort. We see this as an obligation to the region and to the Foundation’s other program interests. Improving the region’s economic prospects is vital to the success of our ongoing grantmaking in the arts, education, the environment and human services. Those sectors, in turn, have much to contribute to the economic well-being of the community. By banding together, Northeast Ohio funders are communicating an important message: Creative, collaborative effort can move the region forward. We are pleased that this initiative among foundations is occurring on a regional basis. The Foundation is deeply committed to the city of Cleveland, but it is clear that the city cannot go it alone.
