Welcome In a year of unusual challenges, the Princeton Area Community Foundation made several thoughtful changes to respond to an economic climate that continues to test our community’s capacity to care for its most vulnerable. >> We refocused our mission, placing the promotion of philanthropy front and center. >> We reaffirmed our role as a resource to nonprofits, donors, and the area’s attorneys, accountants and financial planners. By helping all of them we strengthen our community’s ability to take care of itself forever through permanent endowments that remain meaningful over time. >> We challenged ourselves to increase our community grantmaking. Many of you have joined us to help, and as a result, in 2009 over $1 million in grants will be awarded through our competitive grantmaking. >> We revised our grant guidelines, expanding them to provide more flexible, operating support for organizations that work with low income people. And we raised the dollar limit to $25,000, to give local nonprofits the resources they need to do their best work. >> We elected Ann Reichelderfer Esq. to chair our board. She is providing wise leadership in uncertain times. Together these actions underscore the Community Foundation’s capacity to be flexible and relevant, to respond nimbly, and to connect its many partners “to advance the well-being of our communities.” We thank you for your steadfast support and hearty encouragement.
