November 1997

Dear Friends, Oklahoma City The Oklahoma City Community Foundation experienced a year of growth and transition in 1997. As assets continue to grow almost exponentially, we are seeking ways to more Community efficiently manage the community's endowment, to make distributions that truly meet community needs in the most effective way and to foster collaboration among groups Foundation whose natural interests relate to issues that are important to the city. To this end, we began a long-range planning process at the end of fiscal year 1997 to look at ways that we can be better prepared to respond to change. We have added staff to increase our management efficiency and enhance our services. We have further developed existing community programs which we feel will help us respond to the changing needs of Oklahoma City and have created new focused initiatives in response to specific needs, such as the Community Garden­ ing and Agency Capacity Building programs, which you will read more about in the pages of this report.

One important outcome of the long-range plan is the expansion of our scholarship activities. We believe that the Com­ munity Foundation is in a unique position to help equip the future leaders of our community. We have been managing scholarships and other endowment funds for 28 years and in recent years have gained experience and insight into scholarship administration through the management of tl1e Survivors' Education Fund, which was created to support the educational needs of children affected by the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building.

At this time in the life of the Community Foundation we have enjoyed explosive growth Ten years ago, assets totaled $31 million. By the end of fiscal year 1991, assets had more than doubled. They doubled again at the end of 1995. We ended fiscal I 997 with the largest amount of new contributions in our historybringing the total market value of assets to $249 million. This growth can be attributed to healthy stock market returns of recent years, to the Community Foundation's long-terminvestment focus and most important to our donors who increasingly understand and appre­ ciate the impact endowment funds can make in our community for generations to come.

The theme of this year's annual reportis "The Community Foundation: Helping You Help the Community.'' You are important to us, whether you are a donor an attomey or CPA, a staff or board member of a non-profit organization, or simply a member of this community. The Community Foundation belongs to those it serves - both donors who want to help and to those who need help. You are a partner witl1 us in helping our community. You will continue to help us find solutions to community issues.

Each year we have the pleasure of providing you with an annual report to summarizethe activities and prioritiesof the Community foundation during the past fiscal year. But more than just a financial report we see this book as a tribute to the donors whose support and interest are vital to our success. We invite you to read their stories and to see how their contributions, whether large or small, have made a difference in the community. They could be your neighbor a co­ worker or someone you've always admired. They could be you.

Sincerely,

President, Board of Trustees H e I p n g H e I p t h e C o m m u n t y

OK LA H O MA CITY COMMUNITY FOU N DATION DONOR PROFILES

THEOklahoma City Community Foundation is especially appreciative of the thousands of donors whose contributions through the years have created the permanent

funds we refer to as the "community's endowment."

A Donor Profile is maintained for each individual, famiJy, corporate or

foundation donor. This profile is really a history or an accumulation of all of the

contributions made by the donor to any Community Foundation fund.

Many Community Foundation donors have supported a wide variety of funds Kathleen Lister

including endowment funds for non-profit organizations and advised funds which bear their

own name. Formerly called Name Funds or Donor Funds, these Donor Profiles have been

simplified to reflect the contributions made by donors to all permanent endowment funds.

Included here are the donors with permanent contributions of

$1,000 or more. The Community Foundation makes a special effort

to include biographical information for those donors whose contribu-

tions are $5,000 or more. Some donors have given memorial Cain's Coffee Company

contributions in the name of a loved one. Others choose to remain anonymous.

By listing these Donor Profiles and telling the stories of donors who have helped build the

community's endowment, we acknowledge and honor the permanent impact they have made

tHEOklahoma City Community Foundation manages 17 large endowment funds, called Affiliated Funds, which are organized as subsidiary organizations.

The Affiliated Fund is best suited for a larger endowment fund, especially

one that ex-pects to grow, and for organizations with boards of directors who

are actively involved in endowment development and financial reporting .

The Internal Revenue Code, through Section 509(a)(3), provides a means

through which organizations similar in function and structure to private Joel Levine, Conductor of the Oklahoma City foundations and charitable trusts may attain public charity status by becom­ Philharmonic Orchestra

ing affiliated with a community foundation .

The Community Foundation provides continuous oversight that ensures the endowment is

managed consistently and that donors' intentions are carried out now and in the future.

In addition, each Affiliated Fund has its own board of

trustees, with the majority appointed by the Community Foundation

and the balance appointed by the donor organization or family.

Community Foundation staff make regular financial reports to the

trustees of each fund. John and Elea11or Kirkpatrick The trustees of the Affiliated Fund make policy decisions and

distribute the earnings of the fund for charitable purposes. The Community Foundation

provides investment and administrative support for the fund .

Each Affiliated Fund's endowment is invested separately or in a special Affiliated

Fund pool. Investment policies can be customized to meet the long-term objectives of each

individual fund. ❖ DEER CREEK AFFILIATED FUND · (1995)The assets of the Deer Creek Comrnu­ Designated Beneficiary nity Enrichment foundation's Designated : Endowment Fund were converted into an Affiliated Funds · Affiliated Fund.

O K L A HOM A CITY COMMUNITYFO U NDA TIO N DESIGNATED ENDOWMENT FUNDS

TheDesignated Endowment Fund program represents the clearest understanding of the Oklahoma City Community Foundation as it relates both to donors and other non-profit organizations.

This program is an excellent way for an organization to start or develop an endowment

fund or for a donor to earmark funds for a particular charitable purpose.

A Designated Endowment Fund is a simple and efficient vehicle that

will provide the organization with a stable source of yearly income - more

than $1.37 million was distributed among 200-plus Designated Endowment

Funds for fiscal year 1997. The combined assets of the program reached

$31.1 million at June 30, 1997.

Through the Designated Fund program, a non-profit organization can Children learn about territorial era Oklahoma at the William Fremont Harn Gardens and Homestead. take advantage of the Community Foundation's management services,

including investment oversight, acknowledgment to donors and other administrative support.

The program is attractive to donors as well - a donor can support several agencies'

Designated Funds with a single contribution, and the Community Foundation is prepared to

handle various non-cash donations. Average Individual Fund Growth The Community Foundation has placed 175,000 (After Distribution) $152,027 Investment Performance an emphasis on building the program, espe- 1;0.000 $132,637 Donated Capital 125,000 cially over the past five years, because we

separate section of the Annual Report. However, this year we have delineated these two types

of funds to further illustrate the flexibility of the Community Foundation to meet a wide

variety of donor interests.

Scholarship and Award Funds previously were listed with the

Designated Endowment Funds. Designated Funds provide support for a

particular organization. Scholarship and Award Funds differ in that the

recipients of the distributions are individuals who are chosen through a

careful selection process.

The Board of Trustees Oklahoma City Community Foundation, Inc. Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Oklahoma City Community Foundation, Inc. and its affiliated organizations as of June 30, 1997 and 1996, and tl1e related consolidated statements of activities and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Foundation's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial state­ ments are free o.f material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence suppo1ting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the account­ ing principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In previous years, the Foundation's financial statements were prepared primarily on tl1e basis of cash receipts and disbursements, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than generally accepted accounting prin­ ciples. As discussed in Note J, the Foundation has adopted the accrual basis of accounting as of July 1, 1996. The 1996 consolidated financial statements have been restated to conform with the new basis of accounting.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Oklahoma City Community Foundation, Inc. and its affiliated organizations as of June 30, 1997 ant 1996, and the changes in their net assets and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. The consolidating statement of financial position is presented for purposes of additional analysis of the consolidated financial statements and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.
