Welcome to the 2018 Annual Report!
With this Annual Report, you will see a number of new changes as we transition to “Community Foundation Serving Western Virginia.” We have a new name, new logo, new website and new staff titles. But most importantly, we will still be doing the same great work throughout our expansive region, from the greater Roanoke Valley through our southern communities of Martinsville, Henry County and Patrick County up to the Alleghany Highlands and out to many counties further west. In each hometown or city, there are so many wonderful and generous people who have played such vital roles in getting your Community Foundation to its current size and strength, and we deeply appreciate your continued involvement and support!
Change can be intimidating and even frightening. Often, our first inclination is resist it, but change almost always provides opportunities to learn new things, to rethink processes and to improve the way we work. Paraphrasing the “sailing” maxim written by poet William A. Ward, the pessimist complains about the wind direction; the optimist expects the wind to change; while the realist adjusts and changes the sails to find the most effective and efficient route going forward.
Community Foundation Serving Western Virginia has now set the mainsail and is full speed ahead on the next leg of our journey. We will always remember, be grateful for and pay homage to the early legs of this trip. They are what shaped us, nourished us, built us and now securely positioned us to serve the philanthropic intentions and goals of our donors and meet the most important needs and opportunities of our many communities.
So, grab your sunglasses and sunscreen and join us on board a very familiar vessel with the same leadership and sterling reputation but with a new name stenciled across the bow. We cannot wait for the many wonderful collective experiences over the coming generations!

INFINITY ACRES
JOY IS…. being nose to nose with a llama.
Sounds like a slogan for a T-shirt, right? Well, here in Ridgeway, there is a gem of a place called Infinity Acres Ranch where exotic and domestic animals regularly bring the love to adults with disabilities, veterans, children and others.
The Ranch runs a variety of important and beneficial programs. In addition to its vital interactional support programs for the constituencies noted above, including its Enriching Nurturing Animal Based Learning Experiences (ENABLE) program, there are educational school field trips, Llama 4-H, a summer camp, a petting zoo, and numerous other programs for the entire community.
Some years ago, the nonprofit’s founders wanted to open up their 62-acre farm and share their passion for connecting animals and humans. They have long known of the incredible healing that comes out of the special bond between a person who is hurting emotionally or has learning challenges and a calming, non-judgmental, loving animal. Studies have even shown that such bonds can play a role in reducing blood pressure, elevating our mood and even increasing serotonin levels.
But, trust me, you don’t need to read any scientific treatises on the subject to be convinced. Just volunteer your time at or visit Infinity Acres and see firsthand the incredible success stories regularly playing out there. The Community Foundation did, and we immediately knew we had to support their work and all those incredible llamas, and alpacas, and the coatimundi and the sugar glider and… the whole menagerie. See you soon at the Ranch!

FEEDING AMERICA SOUTHWEST VIRGINIA
PSST, HUNGER – how does it feel being one giant step closer to being eliminated? Your days of causing pain to our region’s most vulnerable are numbered now that Feeding America Southwest Virginia’s new Community Solutions Center is up and running!
Yes, Hunger, your newest adversary is here. You’re now up against a collaboration among several partners including FASWVA, Roanoke Police, Goodwill Industries of the Valleys and Northwest Roanoke community leaders. The Center will house several program areas including a fresh foods market, an outreach space for Roanoke Police, a community room for meetings and workshops, and perhaps most importantly, a production and training kitchen.
The kitchen is being used to prepare up to 500 fresh meals daily for the food bank’s “Café to Grow” children’s food truck. Additionally, the kitchen hosts culinary job training courses, with the expectation to prepare up to 40 students annually for a career in the food industry.
So, Hunger, when you try to show your face around the neighborhood, you’re going to have Shaqueena and Charles and Althea and all the rest of the Center’s culinary students and the support of the Community Foundation standing in your way!

ANNUAL REPORT 2018 | 17 Photo by: Kenny Webster Photography.
Who says Elvis has left the building? I’m sitting right here as sure as the nose on your face. (And, by the way, my nose is better.) Some humans tend to call me a “trained facility dog” but I like it better when the children just light up and say “Hi, Elvis!” After all, those are the precious ones on whom I most want to turn that frown upside down into a smile — perhaps for the first time in a very long time.
You see, I get to work with a wonderful team who works really hard to prevent child abuse, to reduce the trauma a child may endure during the investigation and prosecution of child abuse, and to increase the positive emotional closing for children and their families so that they may go on and lead healthy lives. (Whew, that’s a long sentence for me, but it is so powerful I had to get it all out!)
Through Children’s Trust and its Children’s Advocacy Center, my peeps bring together in one place all the people and services the child needs to provide a safe, friendly, supportive environment. At its core, our model is about teamwork — bringing the agency professionals involved in a case together on the front end – and about putting the needs of the child victim first.
For some reason people think I can only say “Bow-Wow” or some such nonsense. But just look deep into the eyes of the children I help – they get the love I’m sharing. Got to close for now, but a special bark-out to the Community Foundation folks. They get the importance of what we do, too.

THE DR. JOHN D. FRENCH LEGACY FUND
Throughout Martinsville, Henry County and Patrick County, Pediatrician Dr. John French cared deeply for local children and their parents. His commitment to his community also extended well beyond his medical practice, as he regularly and generously gave of his time to help address many important issues. Now, his lifetime of exemplary professional and civic service will be commemorated and perpetuated through the Dr. John D. French Legacy Fund within the community foundation.
Coming to Martinsville in 1957 after completing his residency at the Medical College of Virginia, Dr. French established the Children’s Medical Center (CMC) and became the area’s first board-certified pediatrician. His long-time, devoted nurse, the late Ms. Ruth Janelle, remembered Dr. French as “fatherly with his patients and so caring toward parents.” She said he would often give money to a mother with an ill child who could not afford the prescribed medicine.
In 1964, Dr. French led the community-wide campaign to provide oral polio vaccines for local citizens; he treated the first case of meningitis in Martinsville; he set up the first phototherapy treatment in Virginia; and he was a tireless advocate for the passage of child abuse legislation in Virginia.
Dr. French retired from his practice in 1994 and passed away late that year. At his memorial service, Dr. James Dickerson said: “There is something about Dr. John French that challenges us to do something special for our community, for the children and the people with whom we live.” John’s widow, Linda Miles French, established this fund so that children and families in the Martinsville-Henry County area will forever benefit from the strong legacy of community service lived by Dr. French.
20 | COMMUNITY FOUNDATION SERVING WESTERN VIRGINIA PIEDMONT VIRGINIA DENTAL HEALTH FOUNDATION Photo by: Red Velocity.
Sometimes the very best way to describe a nonprofit is to hear directly from the people it serves. For the Piedmont Virginia Dental Health Foundation, the stories from among the nearly 5,000 patient visits last year from low-income, unemployed and uninsured adults and children in our community are powerful.
HERE ARE TWO TESTIMONIAL EXCERPTS:
“I was there 10 years ago when the Clinic opened, and I have been a patient ever since. My mother and two sisters are also patients. I don't know what we would do without the Clinic. The dentists at the Clinic saved most of my teeth. Now, when I'm working, I am confident enough about my teeth to smile at customers. It's wonderful to have the clinic in Martinsville-Henry County, and I hope the community will continue to support it."
"I was the eighth patient the day the Clinic opened, and I have been coming here ever since. I worked in the furniture factories and textile mills here. Now I am disabled and have no insurance, so I can't afford a private dentist. Without the Clinic, I would have lost all my teeth. But thankfully, I have only lost two. What has occurred here at the Clinic in the past 10 years is simply amazing."
The Clinic has interacted with thousands of people who are grateful for access to quality, affordable dental care that results in tangible health improvements, one visit at a time. These ongoing Clinic appointments have helped reduce dental visits to the Emergency Department at Memorial Hospital of Martinsville and Henry County, even though the national trend is an increase in dental emergency room visits. The daily smiles on their faces are what mean so much, year in, year out. The Community Foundation loves being in a positon to help the Clinic continue its life-transforming work and encourages others to support it as well!

FOUNDING DONORS (ENDOWMENT)
It is a privilege to recognize a special group of individuals, families, private foundations and nonprofit organizations who established permanent endowment funds during the Foundation’s critical early years. These visionary donors saw the importance of endowing a community foundation that would provide significant resources to enrich the quality of life for current and future generations of Roanoke Valley citizens. Funds created by the donors listed below were put in place through outright gifts by December 31, 1996. Such Funds helped the Foundation reach and exceed its initial “critical mass” endowment goal of $5 million. In recognition of this support, each donor will be recognized in perpetuity as a “Founding Donor.”

Please note that some of the donors recognized on these two pages are now deceased. We are so grateful for their generosity over the years.
Donors who understand the importance of a permanent community endowment have trusted the Community Foundation to carefully manage and distribute their charitable funds for generations. If you would like to join this tradition of extraordinary generosity, please let us know so you can be recognized. We would be pleased to provide you with information necessary to make an informed giving decision.
Many years ago, a brightly colored farmer’s cap and a pair of bib overalls walked into my office. A wiry, elderly man nearly broke my hand shaking it, and his name was Samuel B. McGhee. Sam was a WWII veteran, a long-time school principal, furniture builder and gentleman farmer. That meeting led to years of great friendship.
But Sam’s story — the one I will always remember — was his account of seeing a leper colony as a young soldier and being horrified at what he saw. He never forgot that day, and later in life Sam discovered that a child can be cured of leprosy for a few hundred dollars. Always a man of action, Sam established an endowment fund called the “Doctor Robert Manton Wilson Fund to Eradicate Leprosy” in honor of the doctor who was working in that leper colony decades ago. (Sam, being an educator, also went on to establish three additional endowment funds: The Louise and Sam McGhee Scholarship Fund, the Alphin Family Scholarship Fund and the Fund for Educating Ministers and Missionaries.) So, I am thankful every time I see a brightly colored farmer’s cap, because it is a symbol to me of the countless children across the world that are cured of leprosy and living full lives because people like Sam cared. SAMUEL B. MCGHEE – Alan Ronk

Choosing Your Own Investment Manager
While the Foundation maintains a well-diversified and professionally managed investment portfolio for its hundreds of endowment funds, there may be times when donors want to continue an existing relationship with a particular investment firm and specific advisor.
Under our new “Charitable Investment Relationship Policy,” donors who set up a fund within the Foundation for $1 million or more now have that option. We will be happy to provide full details as appropriate.
