One of the best things the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation can do is to help a donor deepen his or her charitable passion. We always ask, “What is important to you? What would you like to see improved in your community?” In 2007, our donors answered those questions loud and clear. They suggested more than $195 million in grants to the community—that’s $3.75 million each week! Grants were given to more than 3,600 different nonprofits ranging from arts organizations to colleges and universities, churches, synagogues and many other charitable organizations in Kansas City and beyond. Individual grants ranged from $25 to multi-million dollar investments. The Foundation also welcomed 189 new donors to our family of giving, the largest number of individuals, families and corporations to open funds in a single year. We are excited to see so many new donors actively giving back to the community and we will continue to involve even more people—of all races and ages and our entire metropolitan area, north, south, east and west—in the joy of making a difference.

At the Community Foundation, we ask every donor, “What’s important to you?” That’s because what is important to our donors is what is important to us, whether a donor’s interest lies in the arts, education, the environment, animal welfare or any other charitable cause. Sometimes donors ask the Community Foundation for advice about smart charitable investments—investments that can leverage the greatest good for the future of our region. The Community Foundation engages in community leadership work for precisely that reason. The Community Foundation’s leadership work is based on the priorities articulated in the 2001 “Citistates Report” and the “Time to Get It Right” reports issued in 2005 and 2007. One of those priorities is strengthening the region’s urban education pipeline to prepare all of our children for success. If this is something that also is important to you, we certainly invite you to join us in this effort. In the 30 years since the Community Foundation was established, our donors have given more than $1.25 billion in grants to the nonprofit community. To celebrate our 30th birthday, we are sharing 30 stories about people who have carved out a place in their lives and hearts for charitable giving. We are grateful to all of our donors for making a difference in the community in their own unique ways. Thank you for making Kansas City a better place.

1978 Seven Founders with a vision Greater Kansas City Community Foundation Fulfilling Dreams through Charitable Giving

ur founders believed that philanthropy is the opportunityO and responsibility of everyone, not just a few. Having begun in 1978 with just seven people and a couple hundred dollars, the Foundation has grown to more than $1 billion in assets, spread among more than 2,200 funds dedicated to the causes that are important to the individuals, families and businesses who established them. Now one of the 10 largest community foundations in the country, and with over $1.25 billion in grants distributed since inception, the Community Foundation works side by side with Kansas City’s donors to fulfill community dreams through the power of giving. “Thirty years of charitable giving is truly a milestone to celebrate,” said Tom Bloch, chair of the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation’s board of directors. “We are grateful to our donors for their deep commitment to improving our region’s quality of life. It’s what the Community Foundation is all about: more giving, smarter investments, a better Kansas City.”

1979 Beth Smith Edward A. and Beth K. Smith Philanthropic Fund A legacy of Listening and Building Together

o justice; love mercy; and walk humbly“D with your God,” Beth Smith learned as a child. Both parents and grandparents (Lithuanian immigrants) were observant adherents to Judaism. “I wasn’t born with a silver spoon but a community spoon in my mouth,” Beth mused. Ed Smith, one of the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation’s seven founders, and his wife, Beth, were for many years one of Kansas City’s dynamic duos. Beth was influenced by the bright and charismatic Marjorie Powell Allen, also a founder of the Community Foundation. They worked together to establish the Central Exchange, an interracial and intergenerational venue where women “could pick up the check.” And in 1979, Ed and Beth established the Edward A. and Beth K. Smith Philanthropic Fund. Ed has since passed on but Beth continues to support the nonprofit sector. She considers her forte to be “drawing strength and wisdom from others; listening and building together.” And that is the spirit of the Women’s Employment Network Fund—also housed at the Community Foundation—one of the many legacies Beth has given to Kansas City.

1980 Helen Nelson Helen H. Nelson Fund Strengthening our Community, Investing in its Future

hilanthropy was a new adventure to Helen Nelson Pin 1980, but she was committed to giving back to her community. Helen established a donor advised fund at the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation to organize her philanthropy—and she loved every minute of it. For nearly two decades Helen appreciated the expertise and research the Community Foundation provided about issues affecting Kansas City. She also enjoyed receiving updates on the impact of her grants. Helen was passionate about supporting downtown revitalization, education, accessible arts and medical research. At her death, Helen bestowed a living legacy for Kansas City’s future generations. Her generosity will live on through the Helen H. Nelson Fund, dedicated to fulfilling Helen’s charitable dreams for Kansas City’s future.

1981 TOM & MARY BLOCH Thomas M. and Mary S. Bloch Philanthropic Fund A CEO Who Left His Family’s Company to Follow His Heart

om Bloch was CEO of H&R Block, the world’s Tlargest tax-preparation firm, and the son of the company’s founder. He was making $1 million a year, but something was missing. After much soul-searching, Tom resigned to become an inner-city math school teacher in Kansas City. Then one night, Tom was surfing the Internet and became worried about the very low youth volunteer participation rate—a concern he shared with his wife, Mary. They transformed their worry into an effort to fuel student volunteerism. Together they founded the Youth Service Alliance of Greater Kansas City. This is just one of the many charitable passions Tom and Mary have supported through the Thomas M. and Mary S. Bloch Philanthropic Fund, established in 1981 at the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation. They enjoy helping all of their favorite charities— including universities, the arts, and their synagogue—in an organized and easy-to-manage way.

1982 Don & Adele Hall Donald J. and Adele C. Hall Donor Advisory Fund Inspiring Gifts, Large and Small

harmingly down to earth, Don and Adele HallC are known for their stellar reputation, which is synonymous with philanthropy. Arts organizations, hospitals, universities and countless nonprofits have benefited from their time and championship. In 1982, the couple established the Donald J. and Adele C. Hall Donor Advisory Fund at the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation, which is also the beneficiary of Don’s time and talent as a founder and Adele’s service as board chair years later. Don and Adele credit their families for passing on philanthropic values. Together they share a giving philosophy: “One ounce of volunteer participation gives the management of a nonprofit the elbow grease and time to get the job done,” Don said. “Even getting just a little involved in an organization that does good is exciting.” It’s impossible to quantify the total impact of the couple’s philanthropy on Kansas City, including major commitments to the University of Kansas and Children’s Mercy Hospital. But the Halls themselves don’t focus on the grand scale of what has been accomplished. They look to the future. And so the list of projects blessed by Don and Adele continues to grow—one human investment at a time.

One year later, the Hispanic Development Fund created a scholarship fund for students of Hispanic descent who are pursuing a college education. Since its inception, the fund has awarded more than 2,046 scholarships, totaling almost $1.6 million. “The Hispanic Scholarship Fund continues to be one of the few local scholarship programs in the country that consistently award more than 80 scholarships each year,” said Ramon Murguia, Hispanic Scholarship Fund Advisory Board Chair. “We are proud that our scholarship fund has contributed to the success of many, and we plan to continue investing in our community’s future by providing support for education.”

1984 Don Chisholm The Don Chisholm Memorial Fund Leading the Way to a Charitable Lifestyle

on Chisholm was a talented lawyer at the firmD of Stinson, Mag & Fizzell, now Stinson Morrison Hecker. His legacy to Kansas City reaches beyond his chosen profession, and his vision will be appreciated for generations to come. A strong supporter of charitable giving and a mentee of the legendary Arthur Mag, Don introduced his clients to the benefits of contributing their estates to the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation to support their favorite charitable causes. One of Don’s many claims to fame was drafting documents to establish the Jacob L. and Ella C. Loose Foundation, Kansas City’s first million- dollar charity. Don served on that foundation’s board for 41 years. When the idea for a community foundation was proposed, Don was there to help it along as a founding director, and in 1984 played a key role in establishing many of the funds added during that critical year. During his lifetime, Don helped open new doors to charitable giving. Today, many attorneys, accountants and financial advisors follow his lead, and for several years, the Don Chisholm Memorial Fund recognized special professionals in their commitment to helping clients give back.

1985 Karen & Mike Herman Herman Family Foundation Fund Passing on Charitable Values to the Next Generation

ike and Karen Herman taught their childrenM at a young age about the importance of helping others. Their approach was to lead by example, much like Mike’s mentor at Marion Labs, Ewing Kauffman. Mike and Karen began talking with the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation in 1985 about establishing the Herman Family Foundation Fund. “I remember one day my corporate salary was published in the paper,” Mike said. “Our 12-year-old came home and said, ‘Dad! Are we millionaires?!’ She wasn’t aware of any wealth because we give our money to the community. We want to create our heaven on earth.” Over the years, in addition to giving financially, the Hermans have given their time and talent. They have been driving forces behind numerous civic organizations including Karen’s presidency at the Women’s Foundation and Mike’s presidency at the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation. The Herman children enjoy volunteering and approach each donation as an investment. “Our children embrace that some of their inheritance will go to charity,” Karen said. “And we’re proud to see them give to the causes they care about.” Karen and Mike Herman 33 from coast to coast: Nationally, the suburban high school graduation rate is 75% and the urban graduation rate is 58%. in kansas city: Kansas City’s suburban high school graduation rate is 82% and its urban graduation rate is 68%.

he hopes and dreams behind every coin tossed intoT a fountain on the Country Club Plaza live on because the coins are donated to the Plaza Fountain Fund for Children’s Mercy Hospital at the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation. It is a tradition that picked up momentum more than two decades ago in 1987 and continues with the help of Highwoods Properties. “The Plaza had seven filling stations and Miller replaced them with fountains in 1985,” said Jeannette Nichols, widow of Miller Nichols who founded the fund. “He didn’t think too much about people putting coins into the fountains, but when they did he wanted to give the money to Children’s Mercy Hospital. He always had a great affinity for it.” “Miller Nichols hoped that these coins could provide seed money for an endowment for Children’s Mercy Hospital, and he approached the Community Foundation confident that his wishes would be carried out beyond his lifetime,” said George Bittner, executive vice president of the Community Foundation. “The Plaza Fountain Fund will always memorialize the wishes of its founder.”

n the mid-1930s, NeVada Linscomb, born to a GermanI immigrant family, met Irven Linscomb. Irven, himself born into poverty in Texas, was working for the Chase Bag Company in Kansas City’s River Market. Soon Irven and NeVada started their own company, building a successful business that thrived for many years. It was in 1957 when Irven met Bill Zimmer and joined Zimmer Companies. “Irven was a man of integrity who took only calculated risks and yet was great fun to be with,” Bill said. After Irven died, NeVada opened the Irven E. and NeVada P. Linscomb Foundation Fund in 1988 at the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation. A year later, Bill persuaded NeVada to set up a charitable trust to ensure that her charitable passions could be realized. NeVada passed away eight years later, and through the Community Foundation the couple’s legacy lives on. The Irven E. and NeVada P. Linscomb Foundation Fund supports services for children in the Northland, including “Miles of Smiles,” a mobile dental program.

Following the deaths of their two infant children, Jacob and his wife, Ella, became passionate about supporting poor and needy children and families in Kansas City. When Jacob passed away in 1923, his estate established the Jacob Loose Million Dollar Charity Fund Association. It was Kansas City’s first $1 million foundation, and it was housed at the First National Bank. Then, the Jacob L. and Ella C. Loose Foundation Fund was established in 1989 at the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation to carry out the work of the charitable trust. From 1920 to 1940, this foundation provided thousands of children with pasteurized milk and ice. As children’s needs evolve, the Loose Foundation, with assistance from the Community Foundation, adapts the foundation’s grant making strategies to best meet the intent of the original donors.

At the turn of the century, African-American patients, doctors and nurses were restricted to providing and receiving medical treatment at Kansas City’s General Hospital #2, a separate facility from General Hospital #1, which served only Caucasians. Years later, General Hospital #2 merged with General Hospital #1 to become Truman Medical Center. Until that merger, General Hospital #2’s School of Nursing operated for 46 years and graduated 715 students. A group of nurses who attended the School of Nursing established the General Hospital #2 Perpetual Trust Fund in 1990 at the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation. They share a mutual passion for providing scholarships to African-American students in Greater Kansas City who are attending accredited nursing programs.

1991 David Hughes, Jr. Charlotte Street Foundation Fund A Grassroots Approach to Art and Giving

n 1991, early in his business career, David Hughes,I Jr. served on the philanthropic decision-making team at American Century Companies. He primarily focused on giving in the arts community. Little did he know that five years later he would leave his corporate job and make charitable giving his life’s work. David had a vision for turning Kansas City into a magnet for artists. He wanted to create an environment where civic, business and philanthropic leaders, as well as a growing portion of the general public, valued and supported artists and creative individuals. After much consideration, he left the for-profit sector and established the Charlotte Street Foundation Fund at the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation. “Many people are generous with large arts organizations and that’s important. However, support for the entire arts ecosystem is critical. And it’s the artists who—collectively—have a huge impact on the art, culture and economy of today,” David said. “Very few people pay attention to human capital, and artists struggle to simply exist. Charlotte Street wants artists to thrive in Kansas City, and for our region to be known as a hot-bed of creativity.” David Hughes, Jr., Executive Director of the Charlotte Street Foundation; and Kate Hackman, Associate Director An installation by Pat Alexander and Michael Coverse titled “Separated at Birth” at Urban Culture Project Space 45 The number of students enrolling as music majors at from coast to coast: universities across the country has increased 46% since 1993. in kansas city: The music community in Kansas City has received almost $200,000 from the Martha Lee Tranby Music Enrichment Fund designated for scholarships and local nonprofits.

artha Lee Tranby was a high school piano teacher,M organ player for her church, and choir conductor for two other churches. For more than 45 years, hundreds of kids came to her home for piano lessons. Martha lived modestly and didn’t think of herself as a philanthropist. Nevertheless, she took the advice of her attorney and established the Martha Lee Tranby Music Enrichment Fund as a legacy to her parents. “She wanted to do something that would permanently benefit the music community in Kansas City,” said her attorney, Myron Sildon. Myron introduced Martha to the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation in 1992. “She established a modest fund, saw to it that it was operating as she desired, and was able to suggest grants and enjoy her modest wealth during her lifetime,” Myron said. Martha passed away in 2004, and the Community Foundation sees to it that her fund helps others enrich the community with music precisely as Martha envisioned.

1993 Kansas City Southern Kansas City Southern Charitable Fund A rich history of giving back to the region

rthur E. Stilwell founded Kansas City SouthernA in 1887 with a bold vision to provide a direct north-south rail route to the Gulf of Mexico, moving grain, coal, lumber and other minerals across a growing nation. Considered to be eccentric during a time when other railroads adopted an east-west route, Stilwell pushed forward with his dream of the north-south rail line, undaunted by those who labeled his aspirations unrealistic. Stilwell’s strategy—and Kansas City Southern—was an unqualified success. For more than a century, the leaders and hard-working railroaders at Kansas City Southern have embraced Stilwell’s tenacious ingenuity, making Kansas City Southern what it is today. Deeply committed to the community, the company established the Kansas City Southern Charitable Fund at the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation in 1993 and later launched a matching gifts program to encourage employees to experience the joys of charitable giving.

1994 Lavert Murray Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday Celebration Fund Overcoming adversity through the power of education

n 1994, LaVert Murray and a capable group of inspiredI citizens formed the Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday Celebration Fund. A tribute to the leadership of Dr. King, the fund has been a ray of hope for many students seeking a college education. “Students are more likely to seek out additional scholarships when they’ve received a helping hand,” said LaVert. The fund honors Dr. King not only in name but also in spirit. In fact, each prospective scholarship recipient must demonstrate how he or she has applied Dr. King’s teachings to overcome a specific adversity through the power of education. “Not all of our scholarship recipients are perfect academic performers,” said LaVert. “We reward students for being role models and getting grades that are above average.

1995 Pete Levi Levi Family Foundation for the Study of Holocaust Archives Fund Lessons from a love story

ete Levi’s father, Kurt Levi, fled to America from GermanyP during Adolf Hitler’s reign, leaving behind his sweetheart, Ruth, who would become his wife—and Pete’s mother. Years later, sorting through his parents’ belongings, Pete stumbled across dozens of beautifully composed letters, handwritten in German, from his father to his mother during the time they were apart. Pete hired an expert to translate the letters. With each translation, Pete recognized that he had an historical treasure on his hands. Each letter offered a snapshot into daily life during a pivotal time in history, all wrapped up in a love story. Pete established the Levi Family Foundation for the Study of Holocaust Archives Fund at the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation. Now others can experience history through the heartwarming correspondence between his parents all those years ago. And to think that in 1995 the letters were sitting in a closet in Kurt’s Plaza apartment in an old tattered box—the same box they had been in since 1938!

The fund is dedicated to promoting values-based, quality education to children in the urban core. By 1996, the fund was deeply engaged in providing financial support to the Central City Schools. The Diocese also established a partner fund, the Central City Schools Hearst Scholarship Fund, to provide needs-based tuition assistance. “During my first year as executive director, reviewing the scholarship applications was a new and shocking experience with both painful and joyful lessons,” said Dan Ryan, executive director of the Central City School Fund. “The painful part was seeing children’s names attached to statistical poverty. The joy came from the bright world of opportunity and hope that the Central City School Fund makes possible for these kids.”

Ewing’s gift of the Kansas City Royals baseball team created a regional benefit so compelling that it marked the first time in history that the Internal Revenue Service had approved a charitable deduction for the gift of a major league sports team. The Greater Kansas City Community Foundation, in turn, helped 32 other donors establish funds to ensure the team’s stability prior to its sale. Reflecting his passion to help others, Ewing established the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation in the late 1960s to advance education and entrepreneurship. In addition, the Ewing M. Kauffman Fund for Greater Kansas City and the Royals Fund were established at the Community Foundation. The Royals Fund received its last contribution in relation to the Royals succession plan in 1997. Among Ewing’s many legacies was his inspiration to other donors to think creatively about giving assets other than cash and marketable securities to their favorite charitable organizations. Whether the charitable gift is real estate, closely-held stock, or a baseball team, visionary donors and “alternative assets” are a winning combination for the community.

This will be more valuable to them than a direct inheritance.” The Bonds’ idea inspired the Community Foundation to offer the Next Generation Fund to all of its donors. “Children and grandchildren can learn philanthropic values at any age,” said Dick.

Hoping to give the kids perspective on the world outside of their comfortable upbringing, they set up the Katie and Andrew Fund at the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation in 2000. “The idea was to put structure around our parenting on financial issues and the kids’ social education,” Darcy said. Each year Katie and Andrew review the fund’s returns and get involved by going on site visits to their favorite charities. Darcy says making a financial donation is only part of the fund’s benefit. “It’s not just about the money. The fund has had a ripple effect in getting the kids more involved in volunteer efforts. They’re discovering which causes mean the most to them, like their support of Ronald McDonald House. This philanthropic self discovery is important for their future and the future of our community.”

He’s also an advisor to the Mr. & Mrs. Isidor Wachstein & Their Son Julius & Thau Family Trust Fund at the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation. “It’s not enough to give a donation and call it done,” Claude said. “People should engage with nonprofits and ask questions.

DonorEdge helps donors determine the difference they want to make with their charitable dollars. It does this by encouraging nonprofits to share information and results using an online platform. “My view is long-term,” Claude said. “I want people to think differently about charitable giving.

efore Back in the Swing, nowhere in Kansas BCity was the transition from cancer patient to cancer survivor addressed in the form of a survivorship care plan. All that has changed, thanks to the vision and passion of Barbara Unell. Fighting breast cancer required Barbara to dedicate all of her mental and physical energy to getting her life back. But when she completed her treatment, she was surprised to learn that there were no resources to help her get back into the swing of life. Barbara was inspired when she read “The News Was Bad; I Went to Bendel’s,” an article written by breast cancer survivor Ellen Tien, who observed that shopping offered hope that life moves forward. Retail therapy became the cornerstone of Kansas City’s annual experiential fundraiser, Back in the Swing. Barbara established the Back in the Swing Fund in 2003, and retail therapy just keeps getting bigger and bigger. Last year alone, Back in the Swing raised over $600,000, much of it $25 at a time.

2006 dick & Bernadette Miller Bernadette and Richard Miller Charitable Fund Great Faith in Helping Youth through Education

ernadette and Dick Miller take great joy in seeingB their children flourish in adulthood and become parents themselves. So why, with nine children and 29 grandchildren, do they give their money away to people they do not know? “We give back to the community because it’s an extension of our Catholic faith,” Dick said. “We try to assist the poor, disadvantaged, elderly and ill. That is important to us. We are also committed to education at all levels and to the arts.” The couple established the Bernadette and Dick Miller Charitable Fund at the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation. The focus of their support for education is providing scholarships for individual students to attend Catholic high schools and colleges, and paying the tuition for entire classes of urban youth to attend Catholic schools. They also provide tickets at no charge for hundreds of high school and college students to attend the Lyric Opera and the Kansas City Symphony, which encompasses both of their interests in the performing arts and education. “We have a small foundation, but we do what we can,” Dick said. “It’s amazing to watch how even the smallest gift can change a person’s life. We receive far more in return than we give.” Dick also oversees the Catholic Family Foundation Fund, established at the Community Foundation in 2006.

2007 Barbara Allen Driven to Cure Foundation Fund In Pursuit of Excellence in Research and Care, Right Here in Kansas City

any know Barbara Allen for her 20 years ofM service in the Kansas Legislature. Others might fondly remember her mother, Marjorie Powell Allen, a civic leader and founder of the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation. But what few people know is that Barbara was diagnosed with breast cancer just a few years ago. Barbara turned to the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston because it offered top-notch treatment. She participated in a clinical trial that she believes saved her life. “I had the opportunity to travel for my treatment,” Barbara said. “But not everybody is so fortunate. We need to ensure all breast cancer patients in Kansas City have access to world-class health care and to cutting edge clinical trials because everyone in our region deserves to receive the highest standard of cancer care possible.” Barbara already has quite a track record in the fight against breast cancer. From the “file and fight” Kansas income tax return check-off, to the Kansas breast cancer license plate program, to enabling legislation for a Johnson County research and education sales tax, Barbara’s leadership has real traction. In 2007, she established the Driven to Cure Foundation Fund at the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation, paving the way for a healthier region. Barbara Allen 77 Fund Listing

An absolutely critical principle in our work at the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation is to always ask, “What is important to you?” We ask that question of every donor, every nonprofit organization and every board member—anyone with whom we interact. We want to know, “What is important to you? What do you know about the community? What are the things you would like to see improve in Kansas City to make it an even better place?” When a charitable fund is established at the Community Foundation, it is the donor who determines the purpose of the fund. As the donor’s partner in charitable giving, we ensure that the fund follows the donor’s intent. We are grateful to our donors for their passion and commitment to improving our region’s quality of life. This fund listing includes only funds that have given us permission to publish their names and were in existence in 2007. Funds are listed alphabetically.
