2013 ANNUAL REPORT

2 01 3 H i g H L i g H T s

Awarded $470,000 to Homeward

and homeless service providers

to develop a regional coordinated

client service intake and assessment

system for homeless families and

to continue their transition to the

successful rapid re-housing model.

Established Middle school Renaissance 2020 LLC to incubate this collaborative community initiative that seeks to build an integrated system of quality “out-of-school time” programs for middle school students across the city.

Celebrated the 10th year of the R.E.B. Awards for Distinguished Educational Leadership, which recognizes school-based leadership for public school principals in our region.

In anticipation of TCF’s 50th anniversary in 2018, TCF launched the RVA Visionary society to build unrestricted endowment for the long-term benefit of our region. Individual gifts of $25,000 will be pooled and invested for a period of 50 years, with an anticipated value of $100 million by our 100th anniversary in 2068. Thus far, 47 members and 2 friends have committed toward our goal of 100 members.

Without The Community Foundation, we would not know of any other way to make philanthropic gifts the way we do now. We can recommend grants to any local nonprofit and find out more about each organization from TCF staff. This is enormously helpful. – TCF donor

The Community Foundation 2013 Annual Report • 1

president and chairman’s

Letter

Here at The Community Foundation, we

are turning passion into action in more

ways than ever. As stewards of nearly 800

charitable funds, we are energized to learn about

your motivations for giving. What issues compel you

to give your time, talent or treasure? How can we

be more effective in helping you make a lasting

difference in the areas of community life that you

care about most?

This is your community, so we know you

care—about educational success for young people,

opportunities for individuals and families to achieve

economic stability, the health and wellness of our

region and so much more. We do, too! Together,

we are making great strides.

Every day, we are launching ideas into action.

In 2013, TCF and its donors invested in programs

and strategies to improve student outcomes, from

early childhood to high school and beyond. Our

discretionary grants program provided early support

to Beautiful RVA to build local capacity for urban

greening projects and to Active RVA for programs

and strategy implementation that will make our

region the most active in the nation. And, we worked

with an inspiring group of emerging philanthropists

with the creation of the Ujima Legacy Fund, a new

giving circle created to leverage the impact of African

American men in the metro Richmond region.

Through our collective commitment to com-

munity philanthropy, we help build a bright future

for our region. We are creating new and dynamic

connections and we are moving full speed ahead on

the wave of momentum we have built over the past

few years. It’s an exciting time at TCF and we hope

you will join us.

fostering acceptance through

Exercise and Play

For those who knew Judith Haskell Brewer,

they remember her as a gentle spark. She

was a deeply spiritual and private woman

who believed in uplifting the world through beauty,

science, arts and education. She was also compassion-

ate and accepting of others, dedicated to finding ways

to address widespread human suffering.

When Judith left a sizable bequest that led to a

fund at TCF, an advisory committee was formed to

honor her legacy and support causes aligned with her

interests. Last year, as they sought to support a large-

scale project that would serve as a gift to the entire

community, they learned of an exciting opportunity

at Greater Richmond ARC to build the region’s first

all-inclusive park on Richmond’s Northside. When

they received a letter from someone dear to Judith,

they were convinced to take a deeper look.

The letter told of an unexpected friendship with

a man who became paralyzed after he was shot in a

drive-by shooting. Their bond moved this young man

so deeply that it changed his life forever, leading to a

career working with people who have disabilities. He

spoke about how people of all abilities are more alike

than different and that friendships can be formed

with the simplest of gestures—a smile, an extended

hand or a hug. Finally, he shared a heart-felt wish

for his children that they would grow up to view

people who have disabilities with admiration rather

than curiosity.

“It was a moment of convergence for us, in which

the fund could be used to promote an environment

of inclusion and mutual respect and literally change

the landscape of this community,” said one committee

member. With a leadership gift of $1 million, they

paved the way to make the dream a reality. This

summer, Greater Richmond ARC will break ground

on the 2.4 acre ARCpark, designed to fully accommo-

date those who have disabilities and welcome those

who do not. It will offer exercise, games, exploration,

teamwork and fun.

For parents like Vicki Beatty, whose son Davis was

born with a genetic anomaly, this is a game changer.

“Our family has longed for the day when we can

play, exercise and interact with others on a level

playing field. More importantly, we look forward to

the informal learning that will lead to friendships

of acceptance.”

Partial rendering of the future ARCpark

RVA residents who have disabilities

can soon play and exercise alongside

those without disabilities at the ARCpark.

giving together to

Inspire Youth

Barbershops have long been an important

part of African American culture—a place

to share stories and discuss events of the day.

In Richmond, a small group of men met periodically

at a barbershop downtown, voicing their concern

about what may be a prevailing public view of black

men as victims or perpetrators of crime. Nonprofit

leaders in the room also recognized that African

Americans are often served by their agencies, but not

represented among their donors. The energy from

these cathartic meetings became the catalyst for a new

and potentially transformative idea—a giving circle

called the Ujima Legacy Fund.

“There are countless unsung heroes in our

community who serve as strong influencers in

their own neighborhoods, but nobody knows,” said

Robert Dortch, a co-founder of Ujima. “They want to

become more involved by leveraging their strengths

and talents with others.”

In 2013, the Ujima Legacy Fund was created

as an opportunity for African American men to

pool their resources to make a greater impact in

their community. Ujima is named for the third

day of Kwanza, which means collective work and

responsibility. The giving circle was inspired by

beneficial societies formed at the turn of the century

and by the late Thomas Cannon, the much publicized

Richmond postal worker who gave away $155,000

anonymously to strangers that needed help.

In its inaugural year, Ujima attracted 19 members,

each contributing $1,100 to a common grant pool.

They are nonprofit leaders, corporate professionals,

blue collar workers, teachers and coaches. With an

interest in helping organizations that empower youth

through education, they awarded their first grant to

Partnership for the Future. The Partnership is a

program that provides motivated high school

students with the tools and experiences they need

to successfully transition to college and eventual

careers. Last year, 100% of the Partnership’s graduating

seniors matriculated to college, often as the first

member in their family to do so.

In addition to presenting a grant check, each

member of Ujima gifted a necktie to a male partici-

pant of Partnership for the Future as a symbol of their

coming of age and achieving new things. “We want

these young men to see us and think to themselves,

I want to be a philanthropist when I grow up, too.”

graduates matriculated to college in 2013 and

94 percent were accepted to at least one of their top

three choice colleges.

providing opportunities for

Economic Stability

Perhaps it is not a surprise that The Community

Foundation received its two largest unrestricted

gifts in history from individuals who would

not be found on anyone’s list of prominent philan-

thropists. For many, philanthropy is a quiet and

humble exercise in giving back, as was the case for

Jan Curtis Spayth and Martha Henna Harris.

Last year, TCF received a $15 million unrestricted

bequest from Martha Harris. “Martha always deflected

attention. She was your typical philanthropist next

door,” recalls her attorney Rob Lesniak, who intro-

duced her to the Foundation. “That is why she chose

to make her largest and most impactful gift after

she was gone.”

The only child of a successful Richmond business

owner, Martha grew up in a stately home surrounded

by wealth and privilege. Yet at the age of 18, she

eschewed this lifestyle for a simpler one. She lived

modestly and kept very few possessions of value.

With an affinity for the common person, Martha

would spend hours at the local laundromat talking

to people there and learning their stories.

Working with her advisors, TCF studied Martha’s

meticulous journals which detail her small but

meaningful donations made over many years.

TCF learned that Martha liked helping people

through a rough spot, as long as they were willing

to help themselves.

We anticipate that the Martha Henna Harris Fund

will help people like Spence Daniels, who nearly gave

up on his dream of home ownership after a car accident

left him permanently disabled and out of work.

Ten years later, fueled by deep faith, Spence and his

daughters will soon move into a beautiful, energy-

efficient, handicapped-accessible home built by Habitat

for Humanity volunteers. “Our home is a symbol of

perseverance that I hope will influence my daughters

as they grow up to chase their own dreams.”

Martha Harris’ legacy has only just begun. Her

transformational gift has the potential to not only

change lives, but whole communities. Grantmaking

from the fund will focus on programs that help

people achieve economic security and independence.

In 2014, resources will be deployed in the Richmond

region through TCF’s community grants process and

in Middlesex through a special funding opportunity

overseen by the River Counties Community Foundation.

The Daniels family

out of 789 funds participate in our community grants program. Most of these funds were

created by bequest.

engaging residents to

Improve Health

Four years ago, De’Nisha Wilson was attending

J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College with

scholarship support from the Woman’s Club

Education Endowment Scholarship. She was an adult

learner who returned to school after the shuttering

of textile mills in her hometown forced her to seek

other options. While attending a National Honor

Society induction for Human Services, she recalls an

inspiring message from Richmond City Councilwoman

Cynthia Newbille about the importance of service.

Today, as the Patient Navigator for the 7th District

Health & Wellness Initiative, De’Nisha is proudly

pursuing a vision set forth by Dr. Newbille—to

improve the quality of life for residents of Richmond’s

East End. Within the Commonwealth, Richmond City

ranks 121st out of 133 jurisdictions in health dispar-

ities. Simply stated, residents are dying too early and

too often from preventable or treatable conditions.

With support from the Jenkins Foundation and

leveraged by TCF’s long-standing investments in the

East End, De’Nisha and her team are focused on

three program areas—health education and out-

reach; health promotion; and screenings, treatments

and connections to a medical home. Each relies on

collaboration with strong community partners and

authentic engagement of residents.

Yes, Richmond, there is a movement afoot toward

improved health in the East End. Hundreds of residents

crowd into the Robinson Theatre every week to par-

ticipate in Zumba classes. Hundreds more have been

trained to serve as on-the-ground health outreach

workers. Families are accessing healthy foods through

partnerships with FeedMore, Tricycle Gardens,

Shalom Farms and corner markets. And, through the

7th District Health & Wellness Initiative, individuals

and families are receiving referrals to the care they

need to live healthy lives.

De’Nisha is passionate about making a difference

in the East End. She lights up when people stop her

on the street to thank her and share stories about

weight loss and improved blood pressure. “It’s all

about empowerment,” she says. “Residents are often

surprised by how easy it is to get what they need. We

all have a stake in making our community healthier

and we hope we are developing a blueprint for

other districts to follow.”

pursuing excellence in

Fiscal Management

In 2013, The Community Foundation advanced

strongly in all areas. Gifts received rose from

$32 million to $63 million, led by an unrestricted

bequest from Martha H. Harris and the addition of

the Jane and Arthur Flippo Endowment Foundation

as a new supporting organization. Grants awarded

increased from $43 million to $50 million, reflecting

increases in competitive grants, donor advised grants

and supporting organization grants.

Investment returns contributed a gain of 12.5%,

which was a good year for Spider Management’s

diversified approach. Total assets grew from $807

million to $912 million, which places TCF among the

20 largest community foundations in the country.

The Foundation’s efficiency ratio of total core

operating expenses as a percentage of total grants

declined from 5.89% to 5.72%. This positive trend

reflects that we continued to support the Foundation’s

growth in all areas while growing staff and related

expenses at a slightly lower pace. Furthermore, TCF

earned a 4-star rating from Charity Navigator, which

is the highest rating for sound fiscal management and

commitment to accountability and transparency. This

recognition was the eighth time TCF received the 4-star

rating in the 12 years of the national rating system.

Most importantly, a recent donor perception

survey conducted by the Center for Effective

Philanthropy recently rated TCF donor satisfaction in

the 95th percentile. One donor wrote, “I see TCF as a

leader in addressing critical needs in our community.

They are innovative and I appreciate being affiliated

as a donor with such a high quality foundation.”
