2009 Annual Report your community foundation The Princeton Area Community Foundation promotes giving as a shared community value, something we simply expect of ourselves and of others promoting — a common activity in which we all engage.

We believe in sharing resources — financial, philanthropy informational, social, intellectual — and encourage an altruistic spirit in ourselves and others.

to advance We help people direct their money to the best- run local organizations — outstanding, successful nonprofits that are making lives better across the well-being central and beyond.

So far, residents, friends and neighbors have put of our more than $27 million to work improving our region. Beyond that, they have built up permanent reserves of more than $60 million communities to sustain us all in the future.

All Community Foundation funds are doing good forever things now. Endowed funds will also take care of generations to come.

We can’t know what challenges our region will face tomorrow, but we can help it be ready.

Giving through YOUR Community Foundation is powerful and enduring. Providing for needs that will surely arise in the future, even though they can’t yet be clearly discerned, is a truly far-seeing philanthropic ambition.
