  • Annual Philanthropic Report 2012-2013
    Annual Philanthropic Report 2012-2013 Table of Contents Message from the Board Chair & President/CEO 01 Annual Report At-A-Glance 02 Types of Funds 03 Funds of the Foundation 05 Gifts 08 Gifts By Last Name 09 Gifts by Fund Name 15 Legacy Society 24 Rolland L. Adams Society 25 Grants 29 Awards & Scholarships 33 Financial Information 35 LVCF Board of Directors and Staff 37 Message from Board Chair & President/CEO The past year was a memorable year for the Lehigh Valley Community Foundation (LVCF). The Foundation’s assets reached an all-time high eclipsing $35 million for the first time. In February 2013, the Board of Governors of the Lehigh Valley Community Foundation endorsed a plan to support the growth of the Foundation to $50 million by the end of 2018. This plan includes the engagement of enhanced marketing and development initiatives to provide greater recognition of the Community Foundation as a leader in philanthropy in the Lehigh Valley. The plan also includes strict adherence to principles of integrity through a renewed commitment to the National Standards for United States Community Foundations. The staff aggressively gave their full support to the plan by engaging in a number of initiatives, such as: 1) developing several “image spots” which have been strategically broadcast on select television networks and the Internet; 2) making presentations to an increased number of professional advisors and community groups across the Lehigh Valley to introduce the Foundation to a growing audience; and 3) sponsoring and attending high-profile events throughout the year. All of this work is paying important dividends.

  • 4.3.2 Earthquake
    SECTION 4.3.2: RISK ASSESSMENT – EARTHQUAKE 4.3.2 Earthquake This section provides a profile and vulnerability assessment for the earthquake hazard. According to the Pennsylvania Bureau of Topographic and Geologic Survey, the State is relatively free of earthquake activity compared to other states; however, earthquakes do occur. Pennsylvania has experienced fewer and milder earthquake events than most other eastern states (LVPC, 2006). An earthquake is the sudden movement of the Earth’s surface caused by the release of stress accumulated within or along the edge of the Earth’s tectonic plates, a volcanic eruption, or by a manmade explosion (Federal Emergency Management Agency [FEMA], 2010). Most earthquakes occur at the boundaries where the Earth’s tectonic plates meet (faults); however, less than 10 percent of earthquakes occur within plate interiors. The Lehigh Valley is in an area where plate interior-related earthquakes occur. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Earthquake Hazards Program defines an earthquake hazard as anything associated with an earthquake that may affect resident’s normal activities. 4.3.2.1 Location and Extent The location of an earthquake is commonly described by its focal depth and the geographic position of its epicenter. The focal depth of an earthquake is the depth from the Earth’s surface to the region where an earthquake’s energy originates (the focus or hypocenter). The epicenter of an earthquake is the point on the Earth’s surface directly above the hypocenter. Earthquakes usually occur without warning and their effects can impact areas at great distance from the epicenter. According to the Pennsylvania Bureau of Topographic and Geologic Survey, when events occur in Pennsylvania, their impact area is very small (less than 100 kilometers in diameter).

  • Section 2: Regional Profile
    SECTION 2: REGIONAL PROFILE SECTION 2: Regional Profile This section provides a political, physical, demographic and economic description of the Lehigh Valley, and details the inventory of assets (population, general building stock, and critical facilities and infrastructure) assembled to assess the vulnerability of the Lehigh Valley to natural, man-made and technological hazards. 2.1 Location The counties of Lehigh and Northampton, together measuring about 729 square miles, are located in the central eastern portion of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania about 80 miles west of New York City and 50 miles north of Philadelphia (see Figure 2-1). Figure 2-1. Regional Setting Source: LVPC DMA 2000 Hazard Mitigation Plan Update– Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania 2-1 April 2013 SECTION 2: REGIONAL PROFILE 2.2 History In the 1730s Scotch-Irish and German settlers began the agricultural development of the Lehigh Valley. During the 19th and 20th centuries, canals, railroads, and highways coupled with the manufacturing of steel, cement, heavy trucks and chemicals continued to transform the economy and the landscape. The rivers and streams of the Lehigh Valley have played an important role in its history and development. The area’s three cities and some of its major boroughs grew along the banks of the Lehigh or Delaware rivers. The Lehigh and Delaware Navigation Canals owed their existence to these rivers. Many streams served as the sites for early mills that were dependent on a supply of running water. Most major industries also were located along the banks of rivers or streams (LVPC, 2010). Further details on the history of the Lehigh Valley may be found in the following sources: Lehigh Valley Profile and Trends – 2012 Edition (www.lvpc.org) Lehigh Valley History Website: http://lehighvalleyhistory.com 2.3 Government and Political Subdivisions The Lehigh Valley contains 62 incorporated municipalities, 25 in Lehigh County and 38 in Northampton County (the City of Bethlehem lies within both counties).

  • Easton High School in Easton, Pa
    PAGE 1 "Easton's All-Americans" By Scot Davis The Northeastern part of the United States has had a long and storied history in the sport of wrestling, but probably none better than the state of Pennsylvania. One of the storied programs from that state is Easton High School in Easton, Pennsylvania. The wrestling program at Easton High School has produced numerous wrestlers going on to become All-American Wrestlers at the collegiate level. I don't know what high school has produced the most College All-Americans, but it's probably a private school where wrestlers attend from all over the country. With this said, it is truly amazing when a public high school ranks among the best in this respect, and the Easton High School Wrestling Program must certainly be regarded as one of those public schools, with 32 wrestlers going on to capture All-American honors at the college level, an amazing number for a public high school. This historic wrestling program goes back well over a half century ago (starting in 1947-48) with their first alumnus achieving All-American honors at the Division I level in 1969. Bob Ferraro, wrestling for Indiana State University captured a NCAA (D1) 4th place finish at 150 pounds in 1969. Yes, almost 50 years ago. Ferraro went on to become an NCAA (D1) Runner- up (150 lbs) in 1970, a two-time NCAA (D1) All-American. Bob had an overall collegiate record of 93-4, with an amazing 62 pins. His one loss during the regular season as a Senior at Indiana State was avenged later in the annual East-West Meet, defeating the same opponent that had defeated him in the NCAA Finals.

For nine days in April 1997, nearly 80 organizations and more than 350 individuals monitored the waters of the Delaware River Basin. These monitors sampled a total of 358 locations on 174 waterways throughout the Delaware River watershed. Monitors collected over 2,100 pieces of information. These data give us a “snapshot” of the Delaware River watershed, which can be used to examine today’s water quality and to serve as a baseline for measuring future water quality. Furthermore, these efforts can be augmented in future Snapshots, to assess watershed quality more fully.
