Building a Stronger Community 2013-2014 REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY Our Mission The Community Foundation for the Greater Capital Region strengthens our community by attracting charitable endowments both large and small, maximizing benefits to donors, making effective grants, and providing leadership to address community needs. Our Vision The Community Foundation for the Greater Capital Region was founded in 1968 by a group of prominent local residents who shared a belief that by collectively investing our charitable resources, we could grow them over time to benefit our community far into the future.

Today, the Foundation has more than $63 million in assets, and in 2013, distributed more than $4.87 million each year in scholarships to local students and grants to nonprofit organizations.

As the needs of the greater Capital Region become more complex, the Foundation is proud of its role as a leader in responding to needs and leveraging support for emerging issues. Together with our Board of Directors and the support of our community, we look forward to working with donors, community leaders and volunteers to respond to issues with flexibility, creativity and efficiency. Dear friends:

It has been an incredible year at the Community Foundation for the Greater Capital Region. The Foundation hit several new high points during the 2012-2013 year: The Foundation awarded more than $4.87 million in grants to nonprofit organizations and scholarships to local students in 2013 , up from $4.45 million in 2012 and $3.3 million in 2011. Not only did the Foundation provide more support to organizations and programs in 2013 than in years past, the number of grants also increased. The Foundation awarded 1,190 grants in 2013 , compared to 1,101 grants in 2012 and 938 in 2011.

The Foundation added 22 new charitable funds to its family of charitable support in 2013 . These new funds, which are listed on page 12, were each tailored to the donor’s philanthropic intentions and guided by the Foundation’s deep knowledge of our community. These numbers are impressive, but at the Foundation, we are impressed by the individual stories behind the donors, the grants and the community change they inspire. What follows is a combination of stories of impact that include the passion of our donors, the skill of volunteers, staff and community partners and the Karen Bilowith innovation of our nonprofit partners. Together, we are building a stronger community. President & CEO In partnership with our donors, the Board and staff of the Community Foundation are proud to encourage collaborations between nonprofit organizations so that deep-rooted community issues can be addressed in new and effective ways. We’re grateful to our donors for their partnership in, and enthusiasm for, informed philanthropy, and grateful for the guidance we receive from some of our area’s top professional financial advisors, which ensures the Foundation operates from a stable, sustainable fiscal base.

The Community Foundation is dedicated to building a strong community through philanthropy. In this Report to the Community, you will learn how the Foundation works with its partners to serve the residents and organizations of the greater Capital Region and beyond through partnership, funding opportunities, and leadership. On behalf of the Community Foundation’s Board of Directors and staff, we are deeply grateful to the generous donors and community partners who helped the Foundation reach such great heights. In appreciation,

I participated in all four sessions of the Capacity Building Mini Grant Program and Growth in Assets Under Management: 1968 - 2013 each session was well organized, well presented and filled with vital material for all in attendance.

I had a unique perspective: I attended as the executive director of The Saratoga Shakespeare Company, but I also serve on the board of The International Center of the Capital Region. From my dual perspectives, I felt that I was participating in a Masters’ degree-level intensive program.

and provided an important stepping-stone in my education as an executive director.

I also want to express my gratitude for the “Office Hour” meetings, which provided a thorough introduction to the Community Foundation. I found the session extremely helpful. It not only introduced me to the Foundation, but also served as introduction to the many other nonprofits who attended. The Office Hour session provides a “non-official” opportunity for How Do Community Foundations community nonprofits to learn how we can connect and assist each other.

She took the time to learn more about the Saratoga Foundations consensus among partners around shared issues, such as the Community BUILD Shakespeare Co. and to share vital Foundation’s participation in, and support for, the Capital Region Coalition to End Homelessness. The Coalition has brought together elected officials, service organizations and other partners to raise information about the Community awareness and develop solutions to the issue of homelessness in the greater Capital Region. The Foundation. Community Foundation has awarded nearly $250,000 in grants through the Coalition to address local homelessness since 2002.

Community Impact Funds help the Foundation address the community’s most pressing needs. Donors can rely on the Community Foundation to identify organizations capable of making the greatest impact in the specific issue area or region of particular importance to them.

Donor Advised Funds allow donors to recommend grants to support specific charitable organizations. Fund advisors make grant recommendations; the Community Foundation then vets the recipient nonprofit organization and handles all legal and administrative details.

Agency Funds help nonprofit organizations build financial stability. The Foundation partners with local nonprofit organizations to build long-term, sustainable fiscal reserves that can benefit the organization far into the future.

Designated Funds are an easy way to ensure a donor’s favorite nonprofit organization(s) receive grants for a specific amount of time, or in perpetuity. Donors select specific nonprofits, the Foundation invests the charitable assets, and regularly pays grants to the designated charities.

Field of Interest Funds are established to benefit a donor’s area of interest. The donor specifies an area of interest (such as the arts, education or the environment), and the Foundation ensures grants are made to effective nonprofit organizations whose programs and services match the donor’s intent.

Community Foundation Operating Funds are a stable, long-term source of revenue for the Community Foundation. Operating Funds are the result of the generosity of donors who have given directly to the Foundation to help preserve their ability to operate now, and in the years to come.

Scholarship Funds give donors the opportunity to help students realize their educational dreams. Donors can designate eligibility requirements and selection criteria, and work with the Foundation to name an advisory committee to assist with making awards. 11 When I began working at the Community Foundation more than a decade ago, the Foundation awarded about $2 million each year in grants to nonprofit organizations and in scholarships to local students. In 2013, in partnership with our donors and affiliates, the Community Foundation gave nearly $5 million in grants and scholarships. One of the most interesting parts of my work is getting a bird’s-eye view of issues being addressed by local nonprofit organizations through grant applications. Reviewing grant submissions helps the Foundation to understand growing issues in the communities we serve, and it allows us to respond proactively. The Community Foundation is many things. The Foundation is a philanthropic partner for donors, a resource for professional advisors, a leader and partner in the Capital Region nonprofit community... and a grantmaking organization. The Foundation’s unique view on nonprofit activities and emerging community needs allows us to be a better partner to local nonprofit organization. We encourage collaboration between agencies and leaders, so that organizations can serve shared audiences better and most efficiently. We work with organizations such as the New York Council on Nonprofits (NYCON) to provide training that addresses knowledge or experience gaps in the nonprofit community. We work with Foundation donors to educate them and encourage them to fund programs and organizations that are tackling issues effectively and efficiently. Through strategic grantmaking and the support of the Foundation’s donors, the Foundation is helping to build a stronger community for all those who live, work and visit the greater Capital Region. It’s a privilege to direct the Foundation’s grantmaking, and a true pleasure to see our grantmaking grow each year.
