* As of Sept. 30, 2010, unaudited **Year-end 2010, unaudited www.ClevelandFoundation.org We live in an age when innovation is ubiquitous, and yet more desperately needed than ever to revitalize our region and nation. Innovation extends and enriches our lives, puts prosperity within reach of more people, and gives us more information and ways to communicate it than ever before imagined. Still, many societal ills remain, and some are worsening. So we need real innovation – technological, eco- nomic, and social. We must develop new ways of educating, creating jobs and wealth, and solv- ing problems we have only begun to compre- hend. And we must work together toward it. Dear Friends

Economic Development The images of the disastrous Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico will remain with us for a lifetime: oil-soaked pelicans, gooey shores, and a seemingly unstoppable flow of petroleum spew - ing from the ocean floor. The conclusion those images underscore is inescapable: The time has come for our world to innovate its way out of our unsustainable dependence on fossil fuels. At the Cleveland Foundation, we believe Northeast Ohio is ready to help pave the way. With our leadership, partnership-building, and grantmaking 8 as catalysts, this region is moving ahead as a pioneer in the research, 9 development, and manufacture of new advanced-energy technolo - gies. Greater Cleveland’s growing concentration of expertise and resources could allow us to make major contributions toward abating the energy and climate crises, while boosting our own economy.

Education The hunger for knowledge is a paradox: The more we satisfy it, the greater the hunger grows. The more we neglect it, the more the hunger fades away. At the Cleveland Foundation, nothing outweighs our commitment to nurture that hunger in children by supporting educa- tion reform. Nowhere is the need for innovation greater. We have invested millions into creating innovative “opportunity schools” in the Cleveland Metropolitan School District to test and showcase the best academic practices. We’re spending millions more to support the 12 Academic Transformation Plan. We’re committed to strengthening 13 charter-school options. And we’ll fight for state and local policy changes that ensure students’ interests are paramount in every education decision. The more we succeed, the more parents and students will demand excellence. We will be there to help meet that demand and feed those hungry for learning. We hope you will be there with us. INNOVation

Neighborhoods “Welcome to the neighborhood.” Can any phrase be more inviting? The neighborhood is home. We are social creatures, and we thrive when we connect, build friendships, and share a sense of community. But in hyper-mobile, consumption-oriented America, so many forces have coalesced against traditional city neighborhoods. For generations now, government policies in housing, transportation, economic development, and education have tilted away from urban neighborhoods, leaving them underdeveloped and underinvested. The foreclosure crisis further 16 magnified the city’s disadvantage. At the Cleveland Foundation, we 17 believe in neighborhoods. The success of our urban fabric is of para- mount importance for the sustainability of our region. We want to help our city neighborhoods and their citizens to discover and harness their assets and character. That way, our urban fabric becomes stronger – strong enough to wrap us together into one whole community. INNOVation

Human Services There is no doubt that childhood and adolescence can be tricky phases of life to navigate. Young people often feel frustrated and iso - lated, sensing that their voices are unheard. These issues become magnified among our youth living in the inner city and inner-ring suburbs. Consider these signs that growing up today is hard to do: • One in 10 children ages 6 to 12 regularly spends time without adult supervision. • The teen-pregnancy rate in the United States is the highest in the industrialized world. • Three in 10 U.S. teens 20 21 drop out of school, and in urban areas nearly half of them quit. To avoid those pitfalls, kids need adults to care, help, teach, and listen. You, through the Cleveland Foundation, are providing that help. INNOVation

Arts and Culture Cleveland’s artistic and cultural traditions have long been beacons that light residents’ lives, attract visitors and newcomers, and keep our city high on the list of desirable places to live and do business. But art and culture cannot live in the past. They must grow and evolve to remain relevant and compelling in changing times and to stay strong enough to weather economic cycles. The Cleveland Foundation has always held arts organizations’ needs high among our priorities. Our support ranges from small grants for neighborhood projects to multi- 24 25 million-dollar investments in the long-term excellence and sustain- ability of our largest and most globally renowned organizations. Rarely has that sustenance been more timely or crucial than in the last few years. We’re delighted to have been able to continue our support, not just for the arts’ sake, but for every man, woman, and child whose lives are enriched by our community’s vast arts offerings.

At the Cleveland Foundation, we constantly seek valuable new knowledge to help us innovate and better serve our grantees.

For example, we engaged the Center for Effective Philanthropy about our priorities and streamline some procedures. (You can read in 2009 to survey our grantee partners for anonymous feedback the entire report at www.ClevelandFoundation.org/Report.) on our strengths and weaknesses. The center compiled the As we continue this important dialogue, we hope to serve the agencies’ evaluations into a report card that showed how community as effectively as possible.
