For the Connelly Foundation, 2020 started off like any other year. The focus was on implementing the strategic plan adopted in June 2019 and a long list of goals and initiatives for supporting the Foundation’s core areas of Education, Human Services, and Culture and Civic Life. And there was also an office renovation project to manage. Then, in just a few days in March, everything changed. As the COVID-19 pandemic raged through our community, the Foundation’s Board of Trustees and staff were forced to rethink strategy, process, and support – from remote work protocols to the grant process to payment procedures. Within two weeks on March 26, 2020, the Board of Trustees earmarked $2 million to COVID-19 relief efforts and on August 31, 2020, increased the Foundation’s budget by an additional $3 million to continue the response. Throughout the year, the Foundation took a proactive approach to grantmaking, reaching out to groups in the region, along with other philanthropic organizations, to see how it could help. This effort by the Connelly staff – working at home – required collaboration, flexibility, passion, and a commitment to the mission and legacy of the Foundation. Nobody will ever forget the 2020 pandemic. Not those whose lives were upended. Not those on the front lines of helping others. And certainly not those who offered financial and moral support. Overall, the Connelly Foundation increased its grants budget in 2020 by 24% to $15.4 million from $12.4 million, and nearly $7 million was devoted to COVID-19 relief, response, and recovery. The Connelly Foundation was hardly alone. This was a year that philanthropy in the Philadelphia region responded in significant and unprecedented ways to help those suffering from the crisis. For the Connelly Foundation, the roots of its response run deep. John and Josephine Connelly established the Foundation in 1955 to support the Catholic Church they loved and the educational, social, and cultural needs of the region they loved. In 2020, the Foundation surpassed $450 million in giving – an ongoing sign of its longstanding commitment to help those in need. 2 The Connelly Foundation’s COVID-19 grantmaking response was guided by a series of overarching principles. Among them: • Be flexible and lead with empathy and care • Commit early and provide sustained support throughout the year • Increase the scale and scope of the Foundation’s 2020 Grantmaking Commitment • Support the nonprofit sector in the entire region both proactively and responsively • Collaborate with and learn from philanthropic peers to leverage impact and provide a true civic response • Support organizations serving the most vulnerable and respond in a way that reaches personal impact • Focus on long-standing partners, while being open to new engagements • Assess the long-term implications for the nonprofit sector and local organizations • Adhere to the Legacy of John and Josephine Connelly’s Philanthropy and Values 3 The historical, all-encompassing nature of the pandemic demanded that philanthropic organizations do more than ever to maintain the educational, charitable, and cultural entities that are knitted into the tapestry of our region. From that realization came the Connelly Foundation’s initial decision to shift funding to COVID-19 and take a more proactive approach to awarding grants. Later in the year, the Foundation launched a COVID Response and Recovery Project, an intense $2 million, three-month effort that was proactive and invitation only. Overall, the Foundation awarded more than $6.7 million to 303 organizations. Emergency relief grants were created to supply organizations either working on the frontlines or experiencing significant disruption in service with grants of up to $50,000 for operational support. Throughout the year, 87 organizations were provided with Emergency Relief General Operating Support totaling $1,488,000. A Sample of Recipients Included: 4 The Connelly Foundation invests heavily in education, especially Catholic education, and COVID- 19 spurred targeted support. • $383,000 to the Archdiocese of Philadelphia Office of Catholic Education to increase scholarship aid by $1,000 each to 383 Josephine C. Connelly Award winners attending Archdiocesan high schools • $350,000 to the Archdiocese of Philadelphia for Chromebooks and Technology • $400,000 to fund full semester scholarships for 14 Villanova students in the Connelly-Delouvrier International Scholars Program despite cancellation of study abroad program • $696,000 to 75 Archdiocese of Philadelphia and IMS schools – direct school level support for COVID-19 Response and Recovery • $350,000 to 14 Private Catholic Schools • $250,000 to Philadelphia School Partnership for Chromebooks and citywide internet access • $225,000 to 23 schools for emergency support to assist schools and families in greatest need heading into Summer Break and the Christmas holiday season • $50,000 to Faith in the Future for general operating support • $50,000 to Independence Mission Schools for general operating support • $44,000 to 22 Catholic elementary schools in Philadelphia for virtual field trip or educational programming schools • $25,000 to Children’s Scholarship Fund for general operating support to help families with Catholic education tuition The Foundation invited recent grantees to apply for targeted support to adapt their operations and programming to better serve their communities, or to address unique, unmet needs due to COVID. 5 48 organizations received grants totaling $277,500. Trustee discretionary grant funding was increased this year to allow for greater trustee participation in reaching organizations they know best. The Foundation increased its traditional responsive grantmaking budget, allowing staff to reach additional organizations in need with timely support. 19 organizations received grants totaling $593,000. 6 The Foundation’s support covered the entire Greater Philadelphia Region. 7 Grant Amount Grantee $1,000 1807 & Friends Chamber Music Ensemble $20,000 Academy of Natural Sciences $25,000 Academy of Notre Dame de Namur $21,000 Advocates for Homeless and Those in Need, Inc. $15,000 After School Activities Partnerships (ASAP) $10,000 Allens Lane Art Center $10,000 Alliance for Catholic Education at Saint Joseph’s University $50,000 American Bible Society $12,500 American Foundation for Suicide Prevention $2,500 American Red Cross Eastern Pennsylvania Region $10,000 American Swedish Historical Museum $25,000 Ancillae-Assumpta Academy $5,000 Andalusia Foundation $10,000 Andrew L.

    Eastern State Penitentiary HSR: IV. Fabric Summary 282 IV. FABRIC SUMMARY: CONSTRUCTION, ALTERATIONS, AND USES OF SPACE (for documentation, see Appendices A and B, by date, and C, by location) Jeffrey A. Cohen § A. Front Building (figs. C3.1 - C3.19) Work began in the 1823 building season, following the commencement of the perimeter walls and preceding that of the cellblocks. In August 1824 all the active stonecutters were employed cutting stones for the front building, though others were idled by a shortage of stone. Twenty-foot walls to the north were added in the 1826 season bounding the warden's yard and the keepers' yard. Construction of the center, the first three wings, the front building and the perimeter walls were largely complete when the building commissioners turned the building over to the Board of Inspectors in July 1829. The half of the building east of the gateway held the residential apartments of the warden. The west side initially had the kitchen, bakery, and other service functions in the basement, apartments for the keepers and a corner meeting room for the inspectors on the main floor, and infirmary rooms on the upper story. The latter were used at first, but in September 1831 the physician criticized their distant location and lack of effective separation, preferring that certain cells in each block be set aside for the sick. By the time Demetz and Blouet visited, about 1836, ill prisoners were separated rather than being placed in a common infirmary, and plans were afoot for a group of cells for the sick, with doors left ajar like others.

Revolutionary War Cemetery in Fishkill, New York On Veteran’s Day, Nov. 11, 2014 the owner of a 10.4 acres parcel of land in Fishkill, NY held a ceremony that marked a significant step in the effort to preserve what the National Park Service (NPS) recognizes as the Revolutionary War’s single largest cemetery. The land owner placed a permanent stone marker that reads, in part, “Near here lie buried Revolutionary War heroes.” Dr. Robert Selig,a researcher studying the route of march that the Continental Army and its French Allies followed to Yorktown in 1781, identi- fied a French soldier who perished at the Fishkill Supply Depot: Jean Bonnaire, a fusilier of the Saintonge Regiment of Infantry. Per French military records, Bonnaire died in the hospital in “Phisquil” on October www.nps.gov/waro Page 1 31, 1781. This discovery raises the total number of identified soldiers to 86 and serves as a vivid reminder of France’s participation and sacrifice during our War for Independence. In late 2007, an archaeological team rediscovered the cemetery on privately-owned land just south of the Van Wyck Homestead along U.S. Route 9 some 60 miles north of New York City.
