Percy, Chair

2 CHAUTAUQUA FOUNDATION

Dear Friends,

During Steve’s tenure as Chair, he and I have written a joint message to you for this annual report. I was quite aware that Steve would not allow me to sing his praises in such a letter. I have solved that challenge by returning to the format we used many years ago with the Chair and the CEO writing separate letters.

Steve has led our organization with patience, high standards, total integrity and kindness. That is who he is. There is no flamboyance, no desire for the limelight and no interest in making news. He is interested in results — as he is with his beloved Michigan Wolverines. I speak for the entire staff of the Foundation in saying we have been extraordinarily well served by his leadership and have been proud to serve with him.

Polly Percy has attended events too many count with Steve. More often she has found herself without him at home while he tended to his responsibilities as Chair of the Foundation Board (which include attending all meetings of the trustees of the Institution). Together they have provided philanthropic leadership to the Promise Campaign and Polly gave her blessing to Steve becoming one of the campaign’s co-chairs. To Polly, we extend our gratitude as well.

Steve is one in a long line of highly respected leaders of this Foundation who have importantly balanced the sometime competing interests of long-term perspective with short-term challenges. The Foundation was established in 1937 to convey a message of permanence about the Institution and to secure and manage the resources that facilitate and enrich that permanence. The tumultuous economic times in which Steve’s chairmanship occurred required firmness, sensitivity and intellect. He brought all three to the task.

Steve, we return your Saturdays to you to root on the Wolverines. Go Blue! Go Chautauqua! Thank you, Steve and Polly.

Sincerely,

Geof Follansbee, Chief Executive Officer

The Committee in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; also concluded that L&M's this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the provision of non-audit preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, services, including tax whether due to fraud or error. preparation, is compatible with L&M's independence. Auditors’ Responsibility The audited financial Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. statements follow. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Foundation as of March 31, 2015 and 2014 and the changes in its net assets and cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

ELAINE YADWIN RIESER

Elaine Yadwin Rieser first came to Chautauqua in the 1980s, where she would subsequently meet the man who would become her second husband, the late Richard Rieser. Chautauqua Institution President, Dan Bratton, married them in the Hall of Philosophy in 1987. Elaine was an ardent attendee of Chautauqua Theater productions, CSO concerts, and morning and afternoon lectures. She was also a member of the Chautauqua Women’s Club. As a member of the Eleanor B. Daugherty Society, Elaine specified that her bequest be used for unrestricted endowment. “Elaine Rieser was a spirited member of the Chautauqua community who thought deeply about the challenging topics discussed here,” says President Tom Becker. “She made a promise to Chautauqua, and her legacy gifts to the Challenge Campaign and the Promise Campaign now total well over $2 million, which will be used to continue the kind of engaging programming in education and the arts that Elaine appreciated.”
