W H a T M a K E S H a P P E 2006-2007 REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY WHAT MAKES Philanthropy HAPPEN? WHAT MAKES PHILANTHROPY HAPPEN? At The Community Foun- dation for Greater Atlanta, we believe real philanthropy happens when you encourage people to truly connect to their community and ultimately, connect their passions with a purpose. The time we spend with each donor, our support of community needs, the knowledge we share with others – all of this helps us to better understand the individual parts of our community and helps others unleash their philanthropic power. Philanthropy is not one person’s job, it is not one organization’s responsibility and it is not something that we can do alone. Real philanthropy – powerful philanthropy – happens when we connect with one another, share our resources of time, finances and knowledge, and inspire one another. THAT’S WHAT MAKES PHILANTHROPY HAPPEN. CONTENTS 2 A Message from the Chair and President 4 2006-2007 Highlights 7 How Can One Donor’s Passion Have an Impact on Our Community? 16 How Do Nonprofits Strengthen Their Business? 20 How Can We Approach Big Issues with Simpler Answers? 30 Scholarship Funds 36 Our Grantmaking 39 Recognizing Our Grantees 54 Thanking Our Donors 61 Financial Highlights 63 Board of Directors 34450_Text.r1:Layout 1 12/12/07 12:35 PM Page 1 CONNECTING Passion WITH PURPOSE 34450_Text.r1:Layout 1 12/12/07 12:35 PM Page 2 A MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR AND PRESIDENT EARLIER THIS YEAR one of our donor families approached us with several passions: the father had grown up in foster care and was interested in supporting youth in need, several of the children were interested in animal issues and the entire family wanted to support a faith-based organization. What they ended up discovering through The Community Foundation was a unique nonprofit called Noah’s Ark – a facility serving as a home for abused children as well as a rehabilitation center for wildlife and abused animals. We brought 11 intergenerational members of this donor family from the suburbs of Atlanta to rural Henry County to visit Noah’s Ark, and as a result, the family recommended a $25,000 grant. That is how we are connecting passion with purpose. AT THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION FOR GREATER ATLANTA WE SEE OUR ROLE AS HELPING INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES DISCOVER THEIR PERSONAL PHILANTHROPIC PASSION AND LEARNING HOW TO CONNECT WITH OTHERS TO FULFILL THAT PASSION. As a community foundation, we have always known that our donors make it possible for us to make a difference in our commu- nity. Our donors’ passions combined with our knowledge of the community and dedication to service keep our region growing stronger every year. The Community Foundation had another record year in giving, with 2006 being our second best only to 2005 in our 55-year history. We received more than $100 million in gifts bringing our total asset size to almost $750 million and had the highest growth in gifts toward donor-advised funds since our inception. With the support of our donors we distributed nearly $75 million in grants to more than 2,400 nonprofit organizations. In addition, we saw donors increase their contributions from donor-advised funds to organiza- tions that received a Common Good Funds grant (formerly Competitive Grants Program) from $1,888,320 to $3,050,652 in the past year. PAGE TWO 34450_Text.r1:Layout 1 12/12/07 12:35 PM Page 3 A MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR AND PRESIDENT We realize we would not be able to do this incredible work without the generous support of our donors and our partners. As individuals, each of us has a role as we explore how philanthropy can improve the community in which we live. At The Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta we see our role as helping individuals and families discover their personal philanthropic passion and learning how to connect with others to fulfill that passion. This year’s annual report focuses on that collab- orative spirit that permeates the philanthropic MICHAEL KAY, CHAIR AND ALICIA PHILIPP, PRESIDENT universe. The stories shared here illustrate what can happen when groups of people join forces to work But most importantly, we hope that each time toward their common passion. In the Belvedere you work with The Community Foundation you see Community of Atlanta, philanthropic partners are we are not individuals striving to reach our own goals helping residents who are passionate about improving or fulfill our own roles. True philanthropy happens their own health take the first steps toward an overall when different people with different values and healthier community. Both youth and adults are voices, all join one another at the same table to talk working together to make sure that those growing up about challenging issues, and work together to achieve in foster care today have the opportunity to become the greater vision that we share for the community. the leaders of tomorrow through the Metropolitan Atlanta Youth Opportunities Initiative. And throughout metro Atlanta, both funders and nonprofits are coming to the table to talk about how Michael Kay, Chair improving health for the homeless can help lead them off the streets. In addition, you will read about the collaborative Alicia Philipp, President efforts of a city that wanted to bring the Martin Luther King, Jr. Collection back to the city of his birth, and you’ll discover why the spotlight shined so brightly on The Alliance Theatre as it received both the Managing for Excellence Award and a Tony Award in the same year. You’ll also learn more about how families are working together to develop their own philanthropic spirit to make sure that they continue to connect with their passions through the Center for Family Philanthropy.

PASSION AND PURPOSE, Partners AND POTENTIAL In 2006-2007, The Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta saw over and over again the influence that these indi- viduals and groups can have on making philanthropy happen. Listing all that we are proud of from the past year would make for a long book, but we are pleased to provide highlights of the accomplishments our nonprofit partners, donors and commu- nity members shared with The Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta.

  • Wiki​​Education​​Monthly​​Report,​June 2018
    Wiki Education Monthly Report, June 2018 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Board and senior staff at the in-person board meeting in Tiburon. Highlights ● Wiki Education held its second in-person board meeting for the 2017-2018 fiscal year in Tiburon. Our Senior Leadership team informed the Board of key initiatives the organization is planning to undertake in fiscal year 2018–19. Board members also discussed and approved Wiki Education's new strategic plan, as well as the annual plan and budget for the year ahead. ● We announced our new three-year strategy. The strategy focuses on three strategic goals around Equity, Quality, and Reach: Increase knowledge equity by focusing on content and communities that are underrepresented on Wikipedia and Wikidata; provide people who seek knowledge online with accurate information in topic areas that are underdeveloped; and reach large audiences with free knowledge by making Wikipedia and Wikidata more complete. Read more about the strategy here. ​ ​ ● We also announced the Annual Plan for the 2018-2019 fiscal year. This year will be one of transition as we implement necessary strategic shifts to ensure our organization's sustainability. Read more about the plan here. ​ ​ ● Several of Wiki Education's partners committed to participate in the Wikipedia Fellows program in July and beyond, including the National Communication Association, Association for Psychological Science, Linguistic Society of America, American Chemical Society, and the Association for Women in Mathematics.

[[email protected]] The four institutions are collaborating to process “hidden” Civil Rights collections through a grant from the Council on Library and Information Resources. Three separate grants were submitted to CLIR, with the Auburn Avenue Research Library and Emory submitting a joint grant. Because all were about processing Civil Rights hidden collections, CLIR approached the institutions and offered to provide one large grant as a collaborative project. Each are administered separately, for example, each manages their own budget and reporting to CLIR. We are excited about being part of CLIR's grant program and we thank them for this opportunity. If you are interested in the other CLIR projects, please visit the CLIR website Hidden Collections section. Our panelists are going to talk briefly about the challenges, opportunities, the collections, and our future plans.
