ANAHEIM COMMUNITY FOUNDATION

THIRTY THREE YEARS OF BUILDING COMMUNITY THROUGH PEOPLE, PARTNERSHIPS, AND PRIDE

The Mission of the Anaheim Community Foundation is to strengthen the Anaheim Community through people, partnerships, and pride.

The goals in support of the Anaheim Community Foundation’s mission are to:

 Encourage community participation, partnerships, and collaboration that result in successful responses to community challenges and opportunities.  Strengthen community-based organizations that effectively address community needs, promote volunteerism, and provide community leadership.  Promote community-building programs and events that inspire community pride and unity.  Provide individuals and businesses opportunities to make charitable investments that directly benefit the Anaheim community.

During Fiscal Year 2016/2017, the Anaheim Community Foundation continued to provide the means for people, organizations, and corporations in “Building Community through people, partnerships, and pride” in Anaheim. Under the direction of a volunteer Board of Directors from the Anaheim civic and business communities, the Foundation linked citizens who wanted to give with neighbors who are in need of assistance, thereby enriching the community’s charitable spirit. Since its 1984 incorporation, the Foundation has continued to expand and provide leadership to meet community needs. In Fiscal Year 2016/2017, the Foundation maintained its firm dedication to supporting a broad base of programs, services, organizations, and facilities that enrich the lives of Anaheim residents.

In the Fiscal Year 2016/2017, the Anaheim Community Foundation Board of Directors continued to offer a well-managed non-profit organization that acts as a community vehicle for accepting donations of property, money, or securities from individuals, organizations, and corporations. All contributions are returned to the community. Managing assets of over $1,181,120 this fiscal year, the Foundation received $532,073 in donations and provided $544,458 in support to enhance programs and services that met human needs and aided local groups. The Board of Directors continued to provide the leadership support required to continue directing 100% of donations to the designated program and maximizing direct service to those in need.

Helping Hands Grant Program - $14,000 in assistance was awarded to 19 local service organizations through its Helping Hands grant program. Helping Hands focuses on assisting community programs that improve arts and culture, youth and senior programs, community resources and emergency assistance. Grant awards range from $500 to $1,000. Funds are made possible by Anaheim residents who have made donations through their monthly Anaheim Public Utilities bill or online at anaheimcf.org.

CREATING A CARING COMMUNITY

Giving to the Anaheim Community Foundation allowed donors the opportunity to make a difference, be remembered, and enrich the quality of life in our community now and in the future. The Anaheim Community Foundation served as a charitable channel through which worthwhile programs including arts and culture, environmental/nature, gang-drug prevention and interventions, youth programs, human service/emergency assistance, senior programs, therapeutic programs, library, and scholarships were supported.

Because of the Foundation’s minimal operating costs, donors had the unique opportunity to give locally and be secure in the knowledge that their gift was directed to the program of their choice.

During Fiscal Year 2016/2017 the Foundation actively sought funds from the following sources:

 ACF Helping Hands Donor Program  Individual donations of cash, real and personal property, or land/securities  Corporate/Organization donations  Employee Payroll Deduction/Contribution Plans  Gifts in memory of family or friends  Bequests in a will or trust  Designation as a life insurance beneficiary  Establishment of charitable trusts  Establishments of endowment funds  In-kind donation of service

The Foundation will continue to look for opportunities to act as fiscal agent in order to facilitate fundraising and services to those in need. In addition, the Foundation will continue to encourage all forms of charitable giving as a means of expanding the delivery of critical services that improve the quality of life in Anaheim.
