Bruce Solari Solari Enterprises, Inc. Irv Pickler Board Member Emeritus 2 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. ACCOMPLISHMENTS As a result of its leadership and reputation for sound fiscal management, the Foundation’s role as a community asset continued in Fiscal Year 2016/2017. Endless Summer Celebrations – To thank the Anaheim community for being a part of the Disneyland Resort’s 60-year history, the ACF, in collaboration with the Disneyland Resort, was proud to host two of five family fun events for the residents of Anaheim. These large-scale celebrations featured Disney entertainment, non-profit booths, City Department booths, carnival games, and food trucks. All activities were free. 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. Youth Scholarships – The ACF saw the return of this important program thanks to major funding from the Disneyland Resort, and donations from individuals and businesses. Over 185 youth received financial support to attend a recreational class or camp during all four sessions. 3 Anaheim Youth Services Assessment – The Anaheim Community Foundation was instrumental in coordinating the 2012 Anaheim Youth Assessment, which paved the way for a $3 million commitment from Angels Baseball, the Anaheim Ducks and the Disneyland Resort through Accelerate Change Together (ACT) Anaheim. The Orange County Community Foundation (OCCF) serves as the managing partner and has brought additional funders to the program including the Ueberroth Family Foundation, Swayne Family Foundation, Donnie Crevier, and the Tarsadia Foundation. For the third year, the proceeds of the annual Anaheim State of the City event were directed to benefit ACT. The ACT initiative is dedicated to meeting the needs of Anaheim youth. Funding priorities target effective programs that specifically address service gaps, challenges and barriers to the success of Anaheim’s youth as identified in the findings of the Anaheim Youth Assessment (AYSA) Report. Disneyland Half Marathon Weekend – The ACF celebrated an 11-year partnership with runDisney in September 2016 as the official celebratory charity of the event. A donation of $7,500 to benefit youth programs was received thanks to this affiliation. Anaheim Transportation Center- For over ten years, funds raised at the City of Anaheim Transportation Fair/Chili Cook-off have benefitted the ACF programs at Oak Canyon Nature Center. Executive Director Brent Dennis and Oak Canyon Nature Center Supervisor Samantha Moss accept a check for $9,600 from Lolly Garcia for environmental education programs. 4 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.
