Foundations in Florida
The Florida Philanthropic Network was established in 2002 as a coalition of grantmakers to organize and promote philanthropy in the state, to encourage dialogue and collaboration among nonprofits, business and government, and to serve as a voice for the state’s nonprofit sector. The Network promotes informed decision-making on critical public policy issues by sponsoring independent research, publishing papers and holding public forums.

PREFACE
Florida philanthropy at the turn of the 21st century resembles in many ways America’s golden age of philanthropy almost a century earlier. The past decade in particular has been characterized by significant growth – in wealth creation, in philanthropic assets and in philanthropic activity. Indeed, new generations of Florida donors have used this wealth to create major new medical centers, symphony orchestras, universities and community organizations of every kind. Philanthropy in Florida reflects the unique character of the state – large, diverse, warm, open and mobile. It is powered by the resources and passions of people drawn to the Sunshine State in pursuit of opportunity and a good life. Despite growth in philanthropic assets and activity during the past decade, the changing role of government, persistent poverty, the increasing mobility of people and unprecedented human population growth have combined to create a more complex philanthropic environment than ever before. Philanthropy in the Sunshine State presents a comprehensive look at Florida foundations and individual donors – where they are, what they do, and the scope and focus of their charitable activity. It was developed not only to provide the first statewide overview of philanthropy in Florida, but also to compare Florida’s giving patterns to giving patterns in other southeastern states and to the nation as a whole. It also divides the state into six regions, and compares the philanthropic assets and giving patterns of these regions to one another.
This report was made possible by members of the Florida Philanthropic Network – the Allegany Franciscan Foundation, Edyth Bush Charitable Foundation, Jessie Ball duPont Fund, Dade Community Foundation, Health Foundation of South Florida, John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, and John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation – and their partners, the Blue Foundation for a Healthy Florida and Darden Restaurants Foundation.
Research was conducted by Jankowski Associates, Inc. and L&M Associates with Judy Hall Consulting. Tim Murphy of L&M Associates organized and analyzed all data. The report was written by Phyllis Shapiro. Project advisors were Sherry Magill, Alma Ayala and Mary Kress Littlepage.
Our aim is to organize philanthropic data in a useful way and encourage an informed discussion about how to promote greater private giving and the proper role of volunteer philanthropy in public life. We hope public officials, nonprofit and business leaders, individual donors, organized philanthropies, journalists and policy makers alike will use this report to form a realistic and deeper appreciation of Florida’s independent sector. Philanthropy in the Sunshine State will serve as a benchmark against which we will measure future philanthropic activity. It is based largely on information obtained from the Internal Revenue Service, U.S. Census Bureau and the Foundation Center. The report focuses primarily on private independent, family and corporate foundations, community foundations, hospital conversion foundations, and on individual giving as reported on federal income tax returns. For regional data on individual giving, the report relies on IRS data from 1997, the only year for which county-level data are available. Excluded from this report is information about an estimated 240 single-purpose Florida foundations – organizations established to support a single university, hospital or other nonprofit institution. Also excluded is information about the substantial cash and in-kind giving by individuals to religious institutions and grassroots community groups throughout the state. Most of this philanthropy comes from the majority of taxpayers who do not itemize their returns.

PHILANTHROPY IN THE SUNSHINE STATE
INTRODUCTION
Where are you from?
The question is common whenever Floridians meet, whether they gather for business, pleasure or any other social or civic purpose. In fact, it’s usually the first thing people want to know. The assumption is that you are not from Florida, that you have come here from another state or country.
FLORIDA SNAPSHOT
More often than not, the assumption is correct, especially in the urban areas where most Floridians live. Two-thirds of the state’s residents were born outside Florida, and 18 percent were born outside the United States.

Florida has always been a place of immigrants and for the past half-century immigration has boomed. It has become a cliché that Florida today represents what the nation will be in a generation or two: fragmented, diverse, multilingual, with residents sharply split between old and young, rich and poor. While high immigration has fueled Florida’s economic growth and brought a spectacular array of cultural riches, Floridians seem to lack any common ground. The state extends more than 400 miles from north to south and almost as far from east to west. Its largest urban area, Miami, is closer to the islands of the Caribbean than to most of the rest of the United States, not just in style but in physical fact. The viewpoints of many Florida communities reflect stronger links with other states and countries than with other parts of Florida. Immigration – both from other states and from other nations – also has shaped philanthropy in the Sunshine State. Charitable giving by individuals, families, businesses and foundations all has been defined by attitudes and traditions born in distant places and cultures.
2003 Household net worth
Substantial new philanthropic dollars move into Florida every year with the people and organizations relocating here, yet many of those dollars move right out again. The money is sent “back home” to communities that still exercise a strong emotional pull and stir an understandable sense of responsibility to one’s roots.

Even giving within Florida does not always align with the state’s most urgent needs, since philanthropic decisions may be based on experiences from other times and places. Moreover, there is little consensus about the respective roles of government, business and private philanthropy in supporting the state’s nonprofit sector and critical human needs. Long considered a mecca for the elderly, Florida today has a growing population of young people. Florida’s population age 60 and older has declined to 22 percent from 24 percent in 1990. In every region of the state except Southwest Florida, the population under age 20 is larger than the population age 60 and older. As a result, today’s Sunshine State is a place of many children and many seniors, two groups whose interests don’t always coincide. According to IRS estimates, some 206,000 Florida residents are millionaires, while at least 2 million people live in poverty. On any given day, about 72,000 Floridians are homeless – more than 35 percent of them children.
*This report uses the term “tax filer” to represent an individual or individuals who file a tax return, singly or jointly. See page 13 for additional terminology.

Florida has few major statewide foundations. Each of the state’s 23 community foundations was chartered to address the needs of its specific area, which may be a single county or a cluster of neighboring counties. While Florida is home to 3,289 foundations, only a handful were created for the primary purpose of helping the state as a whole. Among them are Publix Super Markets Charities and the Blue Foundation for a Healthy Florida. The Florida Philanthropic Network was established in part to organize philanthropy across the state and create a statewide perspective among Florida’s giving community. It provides a voice for the philanthropic sector and offers a broad perspective on Florida’s entire 67-county community and 16 million residents.

FOUNDATIONS IN FLORIDA
A foundation
is a nongovernmental, nonprofit organization established under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code to support religious, charitable and educational activities serving the common welfare. Various types of foundations reflect different origins, purposes and legal structures. Most common is the private foundation, typically founded by one individual or family, often by bequest, to support defined charitable objectives through grantmaking to other nonprofit tax-exempt organizations. Many private foundations begin as family foundations, governed first by members of the original donor’s family. As time passes, governance responsibility shifts from the donor family to a board of trustees Growth of Organized Philanthropy comprising community leaders not related to the donor. 1990

Operating foundations are private foundations that use the bulk of their income to provide charitable services or programs of their own. Community foundations are public charities established to serve the needs of defined geographic areas. They receive support from multiple sources – individual contributions, trusts, endowments and private foundation grants – and they provide a framework enabling donors to support charitable causes without having to create their own separate foundations.
A relatively new institution, the hospital conversion foundation, has emerged over the past two decades, endowed by the proceeds of sales of nonprofit community hospitals. The law requires that the assets of these institutions – created from community contributions – should remain a community resource rather than being absorbed by a for-profit enterprise. Thus, these assets seed hospital conversion foundations, which may be structured as private foundations, operating foundations or public charities, but which generally focus their giving on health-related issues in their communities. Florida ranks among the nation’s top 10 states in terms of total foundation assets. The state is home to 3,289 foundations, or 5.3 percent of the 62,284 foundations in the United States. Florida foundations have assets of $14.1 billion, an increase of 341 percent over the $3.2 billion in Florida foundation assets reported in 1990. This dramatic growth compares with a 361 percent increase in foundation assets in the 12-state southeastern United States and 181 percent growth in foundation assets for the nation as a whole over the same period. In the most recent year reported, Florida foundations awarded grants totaling $922.1 million. Florida is home to two of the nation’s 100 largest foundations, the $1.9 billion John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, based in Miami, and the $542 million Picower Foundation, in Palm Beach. Nineteen other Florida foundations have assets in excess of $100 million. Not surprisingly, Florida foundation giving is concentrated among those large institutions. Of the 3,254 private grantmaking foundations in the state, 90 of the largest grantmakers distributed 51 percent of giving by all private foundations in the most recent year recorded. In recent years Florida has seen a remarkable growth in new foundations. Between 1996 and 2001, more than 1,500 new foundations were established, with almost $3 billion in combined assets. While these foundations represent almost half the total number of Florida-based foundations, their assets and giving equal roughly 20 percent of the state’s foundation assets and giving.

Florida has 23 community foundations; combined, they now serve most of the state’s population. These foundations have combined assets of $589 million and total annual grantmaking of approximately $52 million. At least two community foundations are now located in each of the six study regions. The state currently is home to 12 hospital conversion foundations, six clustered in Southeast Florida and the rest spread among the state’s other regions. Their combined assets are approximately $843 million, and in their most recent year reported, they awarded grants totaling $27 million, 95 percent of which went to Florida organizations. Private grantmaking foundations (but not community foundations or hospital conversion foundations) are required each year to distribute at least 5 percent of their assets, averaged over a three-year period. While the law dictates the amount of private foundation resources that must go to charity, each foundation’s governing board determines the purposes and recipients of its grant funds. The result is wide philanthropic diversity. Foundations are as varied as the donors who create them; their giving reflects many different philanthropic interests and approaches. Logically, each foundation is responsible for its own funding program, including decisions such as grant size and terms, and recipients, their locations and programs. While a majority of private grantmaking foundations pay out the required 5 percent of their assets each year, intending to continue in perpetuity, some foundations elect to complete their work in a limited time span, intentionally spending themselves out of existence and thus paying out significantly more than 5 percent annually. The Miami-based Lucille P. Markey Charitable Trust is one good example, distributing more than $500 million for medical research during its 15-year lifespan ending in 1997. The F. W. Olin Foundation is also unique in its approach to grantmaking. Established in 1938 and based in Sarasota, Olin has assets approaching $300 million and awards very few, but very large grants, primarily for construction of

science and engineering facilities at independent colleges across the country. In 2002, for example, one Olin grant of more than $50 million went to a new college near Boston, Mass1. Consistent with their founding donors’ objectives, Florida foundations send more than 61 percent of their grant money outside the state. Many foundations support charities both in Florida and in one or more other states, reflecting the origins and mobility of today’s philanthropists. Knight Foundation, Florida’s largest, is a national foundation, with a mission of supporting journalism and the 26 communities in the United States where its founders owned the newspapers that generated their wealth. Consequently, only 22 percent of Knight’s grant funds go to Florida nonprofits. The Jessie Ball duPont Fund, in Jacksonville, was established to fund only the organizations Mrs. duPont supported between 1960 and 1964. About 30 percent of duPont Fund grant dollars go to 94 Florida organizations; other duPont Fund grants are concentrated largely in Virginia and Delaware, where Mrs. duPont lived much of her life. Conversely, Florida nonprofits receive significant grant funding from foundations based outside the state. The $4.2 billion John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, based in Chicago, has long had a major presence in Palm Beach County, where the MacArthurs lived, owned property and conducted business. Altogether, the nation’s 1,000 largest foundations sent more than $253 million in grant funds to Florida nonprofits in their last year reported, according to Foundation Center data. Many smaller foundations, not included in this total, also award grants in Florida each year. The ability of foundations to support nonprofit organizations, of course, is influenced by fluctuations in the nation’s economy and financial markets. Two trends characterize Florida’s organized philanthropy during the past few years. On the one hand, the Sunshine State, like the rest of the nation, has seen dramatic growth in foundation formation and philanthropic activity. At the same time, the 1

downturn of the economy and stock market decline have reduced foundation assets, resulting in lower grantmaking capacity among those already established, at least for the short term. The vast majority of foundations, however, have a long-term perspective. While charitable purposes and grantmaking approaches vary considerably, Florida’s large and growing foundation community represents a significant asset for the state.

Florida is among the nation’s most active areas of new foundation formation. From 1996 through 2001, the state saw the formation of more than 1,500 new foundations, representing nearly half of all Florida-based foundations. The total assets of these new foundations, however, are only one-fifth of the state’s total foundation assets. Similarly, their giving is but one-fifth of all foundation giving in the state.

PHILANTHROPY IN THE SUNSHINE STATE
INDIVIDUAL GIVING
Nationally and in Florida,
the largest source of philanthropic giving is charitable contributions made by individuals and families. In 2001, Florida tax filers reported $7.3 billion in contributions, a 37 percent increase over the $5.3 billion reported in 1997. Yet despite the fact that Florida residents’ income during those years grew slightly faster than the rest of the country, the increase in Floridians’ charitable giving lagged behind the 41 percent growth in giving by the nation as a whole. By some measures, Florida is a place of considerable wealth. According to the IRS, more than 200,000 Floridians are millionaires, a larger number than any other state except New York and California, and a higher concentration of wealth than anywhere else in the nation but Connecticut, Colorado, New Jersey and the District of Columbia. In Southwest Florida’s Collier County, one-fourth of all households have a net worth above $500,000. In four other Florida counties (Martin, Sarasota, Palm Beach and St. Johns), at least one household in five has a net worth of $500,000 or more.
Terminology This report discusses income and giving using specific terms: Tax returns: All federal tax returns filed by Floridians. In most cases a single tax return represents more than one person (i.e., spouse, dependents). Thus, tax return is not synonymous with individuals, but is a closer approximation to households. Tax filer: An individual or individuals who file a tax return, singly or jointly. Donors: Those tax filers who declare charitable contributions as an itemized deduction. Average tax filer income: The total income reported on all tax filers’ returns divided by the number of tax returns filed. It is not synonymous with per capita income. Average charitable contribution: The total charitable contributions reported on all donors’ returns divided by the number of donors.
Annual household income is greater than $100,000 for nearly 700,000 Florida households (11 percent) and greater than $200,000 for more than 130,000 of those households (2.1 percent). On the surface at least, the potential for increased individual charitable giving is significant. According to IRS data, 1.9 million Florida tax filers reported charitable contributions in 2001. This represents about 24.8 percent of the state’s tax returns, compared with 30.4 percent of tax filers reporting contributions nationally. Florida ranks 21st nationally in average adjusted gross income, but 39th in terms of the percentage of tax filers who make charitable gifts. Florida also falls below national and regional averages of charitable giving as a percentage of income, although the level of giving varies within the state. On average, Florida tax filers donate 2.16 percent of their income to charity, compared with a giving rate of 2.25 percent for the nation as a whole. Florida’s 2.16 percent giving rate compares with rates of 2.90 percent in Georgia and Alabama, 2.82 percent in South Carolina and 2.72 percent in North Carolina. Among southeastern states, only West Virginia, Louisiana and Kentucky have lower giving rates than Florida. Among higher income taxpayers, this pattern becomes more pronounced. Florida taxpayers with adjusted gross incomes between $500,000 and $1 million give 2.74 percent of their income to charity, compared with 2.85 percent contributed by comparable taxpayers nationally. And Florida taxpayers with incomes above $1 million give 3.88 percent of their income to charity, compared with 4.28 percent of income donated by comparable taxpayers nationally.
Donor giving rate: Calculated by dividing the average charitable contribution by the average tax filer income of the donor group. Tax filer giving rate: Calculated by dividing the average charitable contribution by the average tax filer income of all tax filers in the group.

The largest number of Florida contributors and greatest total dollar amount of charitable giving come from the seven-county southeastern region of Florida. That region, which has one-third of the state’s population, is home to 35 percent of the state’s donors, who generate 44 percent of the state’s contributions, or $2.4 billion for 1997. The region is relatively wealthy, with an average tax filer income of $43,948, compared with $39,797 average income for all Florida tax filers. Making valid comparisons is not easy. The IRS report providing state and county charitable giving data covers 1997, one year only. No updates have been published or are even anticipated, leaving an unfortunate information gap. Regular IRS updates of localized information would be a valuable tool for the philanthropic community and policy makers working on a state and national level. It also is important to recognize that this information is only part of the picture. The data in this report describe charitable contributions only from those who itemize their tax returns, about 25 percent of Florida tax filers. While difficult to quantify, significant additional charitable giving takes place outside the scope of IRS tax deductions. The large number of churches thriving in many low-income communities, for instance, is just one indicator of active, though largely undocumented, philanthropy on a neighborhood level.

UNREALIZED POTENTIAL What are the implications? The bottom line is this: Florida has great wealth and substantial capacity for individual charitable giving, but the state fails to achieve its full philanthropic potential. If those with the greatest capacity to give – Florida’s high-income and high net worth residents – would give at national or regional giving levels (or, better still, at the level of other more generous southern states), then Florida would realize considerably more philanthropic capital. For example, if Floridians with adjusted gross income above $1 million gave at the national rate of 4.28 percent for their income group, instead of their current rate of 3.88 percent, they would produce more than $150 million in additional charitable funds. If 30 percent of all Florida tax filers made charitable gifts, instead of the current 25 percent, they would produce more than $1.5 billion in additional charitable funds. If Florida’s nonprofit community could tap into this broader base of prospective donors, organizations would find significant new support for their work in health, education, community development, the arts, environmental conservation and other social programs and services. Charitable bequests represent another significant element of the philanthropic landscape. Charitable bequests totaling $1.37 billion came from 20 percent of the estates with assets over $650,000 settled in Florida in 2001. That total amount was 8.2 percent of the $16.6 billion bequeathed to charity in the United States that year. Floridians’ charitable bequests averaged $738,000, less than the $886,000 national bequest average for tax year 2001. While Florida ranks second in the average gross estate size, the state ranks only 24th in the percentage of estates including charitable bequests.

FLORIDA’S PHILANTHROPIC CHALLENGE FROM INHERITANCE TO LEGACY
Today in the Sunshine State,
philanthropy squarely confronts great challenge and great opportunity.
It is challenged first by the dramatic changes in the state itself: a population growing rapidly and bringing with that growth increasing human need; and wealth that is unevenly distributed by age, race, ethnicity and region. It is challenged by the current political philosophy that reduces the investment of public dollars in the business of providing essential community services; a philosophy that expects private dollars – whether individual giving, the faith community or organized philanthropy – to fill the gaps created by reduced government spending. Finally, philanthropy in Florida is challenged by its own immaturity and limitations. Though charitable giving by foundations and individual donors has expanded in the past decade, the state’s foundations are young and individual giving rates lag behind those of residents in other southeastern states, a reflection of our migratory nature and lack of strong state community. There clearly is great capacity to increase individual charitable giving and to better organize foundation giving. But those efforts – meritorious as they are – address only one third of the challenge. Philanthropy in Florida – or anywhere else – cannot address the needs of a rapidly growing, economically polarized population without the full and equal participation of government and public dollar spending. Foundation assets, foundation giving and even the untapped capacity of individual wealth pale when compared to municipal and state budgets. For example, Florida's foundations and roughly two million individual donors gave a total of $8 billion in the most recent year recorded, but this amount is a mere fraction of the state's annual budget of $53 billion. When individual charitable giving is subtracted, Florida's foundations gave a combined total of $922 million, but again this amount totals less than two percent of the state’s annual budget. The $1.9 billion in assets of Florida's largest private foundation, the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, is less than half the size of the Miami-Dade school district annual budget. In other words, increased private giving will not be able to fill gaps in funding for nonprofit organizations and community-based approaches to social challenges left by decreasing public dollar investments in these organizations and communities. Private giving – whether by organized philanthropy or by individual households – fills a distinct, limited role in our communities. Foundations lead the way in supporting social innovation, creating pilot programs, funding independent research, bringing disparate parties together to discuss tough issues, and providing seed money to test new ideas. Foundations often underwrite vital research and development of new approaches to generating the social, scientific
16
PHILANTHROPY IN THE SUNSHINE STATE
and creative energy necessary for the development of healthier communities. But private giving cannot replace the loss of public funding, and while a vital component of providing for the common good, private foundations and individual charitable giving cannot replace government as the primary promoter of the common good and primary investor in the American people. Delivering the basic infrastructure of civil society is the responsibility of government. Historically, public dollars at all levels have been invested in nonprofit organizations to provide essential community services. America's unique partnership of government and nonprofit agencies has been the basis of our nation's success in providing community-based services that reach broad and diverse populations. As we devolve government's responsibility from the federal and state level to counties and cities, and as we search for market-based solutions to human problems, we put the welfare of our communities at risk. Those working in private philanthropy and in the nonprofit sector offer a valuable body of knowledge about what works best at the community level. A collaborative working partnership that includes government, business and the philanthropic and nonprofit community can identify and fund new approaches to meeting the needs of Florida residents. Such a partnership can sustain an environment that fosters education, provides economic opportunity and strengthens families and communities. For more than a century, Florida has lived off an inheritance of sunshine, abundant land, tourism and immigration. Now, with the emergence of new generations of donors and the maturing of the state's philanthropic community, it is time for Floridians to build our legacy for the future – a legacy based on the perspectives of Florida-based philanthropy, combined public and private investment, and a sense of statewide community.
NEXT STEPS Donors: Encourage ongoing conversations about philanthropic issues, trends and opportunities. Promote the value of philanthropy by all people, not just the wealthy. Local grantmaker coalitions: Sponsor and publish research on local philanthropy to complement statewide, regional and national reports. Increase participation in philanthropy through networking and mentoring. Federal government: Continue IRS publication of state- and county-level data on charitable giving, with reports published at least every five years. Support public policy that encourages philanthropy. State government: Use philanthropic data and reports such as this one to inform public policy, legislation and funding decisions. Promote philanthropy through tax incentives and other measures. Local government: Engage more broadly in partnerships with the philanthropic and nonprofit sector to address community priorities. Provide greater recognition for the impact of philanthropy on the community. Media: Report more frequently and fully the news, actions and issues of the philanthropic community. Help educate prospective donors and their advisors about the role of philanthropy in society. Business and professional community: Cultivate opportunities for collaboration with nonprofit institutions. Encourage employees and customers to become donors and volunteers.

REGIONAL PROFILES
PANHANDLE 16 counties: Escambia, Santa Rosa, Okaloosa, Walton, Holmes, Washington, Bay, Jackson, Calhoun, Liberty, Gulf, Franklin, Gadsden, Leon, Wakulla, Jefferson
The 16-county Florida Panhandle region extends from the state capital of Tallahassee westward to Pensacola. In many ways, the region’s residents have more in common with the people of Georgia and Alabama than with the rest of Florida.
Largest city: Tallahassee
While the region is still thinly populated, its population grew about 20 percent between 1990 and 2000. With abundant undeveloped land and extensive coastline, the potential for continued strong population growth is great.

The Panhandle, much like North Florida, has a higher proportion of native Floridians and fewer immigrants than the rest of the state. Almost half (46 percent) of the region’s residents were born in Florida; half were born in another state; and fewer than 4 percent were born outside the United States. The region has less wealth than any other, with the average income reported on individual federal tax returns of $34,217 for 1997, the most recent year for which such data are available. For every high-wealth household – with net worth of $500,000 or more – there are 2.4 low-wealth households, with a net worth of $15,000 or less. The region’s population, about 1.2 million, represents just 7.6 percent of the state’s total population. The $290.3 million in total charitable giving reported by the region’s taxpayers for 1997 represents a smaller percentage (5.5 percent) of Florida’s total $5.3 billion in charitable gifts for that year. Panhandle donors contributed a higher percentage of their income (4.2 percent) than donors statewide (3.9 percent), but because the region’s average income is lower than the rest of the state, the $3,432 average charitable gift was lower than charitable gifts in all but two other regions.
Population Origin (2002 percentage)

The population is predominantly Caucasian (74.1 percent) with the next largest group African American (18.5 percent.) Hispanics represent just 3 percent of the population.

The Panhandle has 106 foundations, with total assets of $102 million. In the most recent year reported, those foundations received $9.8 million in gift income and awarded $7.3 million in grants to nonprofit organizations. The region has two community foundations, based in Tallahassee and Pensacola, and one hospital conversion foundation, based in Pensacola.

Unlike most of Florida, North Florida has a high percentage of native Floridians – 48 percent – the highest in the state. Approximately 46 percent of the region’s residents moved here from other states and slightly more than 5 percent of the residents came from outside the United States, among the lowest immigrant rates in Florida. Average 1997 income of North Florida tax filers was $37,658. North Florida donors reported a total of $516.3 million in charitable contributions for 1997, just under 10 percent of the state’s total charitable giving. The average amount of donors’ charitable gifts was $3,741, slightly higher than the $3,648 average contribution statewide. About 19 percent of North Florida taxpayers reported charitable gifts, which is higher than the 16 percent of Panhandle residents making gifts but lower than Southeast Florida’s 25 percent who were donors. North Florida has 354 foundations, including two community foundations, in Jacksonville and Gainesville, and one hospital conversion foundation in Jacksonville. With assets of $68 million, the Community Foundation in Jacksonville is the oldest and fifth largest of Florida’s 23 community foundations. The region’s foundations have combined assets of $1.4 billion; about one-fifth of these assets belong to the Jessie Ball duPont Fund, a major national foundation. In the latest year reported, North Florida foundations received $58.7 million in gift income and awarded grants totaling $89.1 million.

Dominated by the Tampa Bay area, the West Central Florida region includes nine counties and has a total population of 3.2 million, about one-fifth of the state’s total. In the 1990s, the region added almost a half million new residents. This region, like its sister North Central Florida region, illustrates the shift in ethnic mix of residents. In both North Central Florida and West Central Florida, about 75 percent of the population is Caucasian, while 10 percent is African American and 11 percent is Hispanic.

The region also has a higher percentage of Caucasians than any other region in the state, 82 percent of the population, and the smallest percentage of African Americans, 5 percent. Hispanics account for 10 percent of the population. A large segment of the region’s population – about two-thirds – came to Florida from other parts of the country. About 21 percent were born in Florida, and about 12 percent were born outside the United States. Average income of Southwest Florida tax filers is nearly $50,000, much higher than the rest of the state. More than 36 percent of all households in the region have a net worth above $250,000. In Collier County, more than one-fourth of all households have a net worth above $500,000. Wealth is more broadly distributed in this region than other regions of the state, with roughly a 1:1 ratio between wealthy households (19.4 percent with net worth of $500,000 or more) and low-wealth households (20.5 percent with net worth of $15,000 or less). The region includes just six counties, and its 1.1 million people amount to less than 7 percent of the state’s total population. Yet Southwest Florida tax filers contributed a significant $600.4 million to charity in 1997, more than 11 percent of Florida’s total charitable giving that year. Donors in the region made an average contribution of $4,906, by far the largest in the state and about 65 percent more than the $2,977 average contribution of taxpayers nationally.

Florida’s greatest concentrations of population and charitable wealth are in the seven-county Southeast Florida region, from Indian River County south to Monroe County and the Florida Keys. More than a third of the state’s population, about 5.5 million people, lives in Southeast Florida. During the 1990s, the region added more than a million new residents. The region is among the most diverse parts of America. Less than half of the population is Caucasian – 47 percent – while 32 percent of the population is Hispanic, and 17 percent African American. About a third of all Southeast Floridians were born outside the United States, and about 40 percent came from other states. Only 28 percent are native Floridians. Average income of tax filers in Southeast Florida was $43,948, second highest in the state.

Population Origin (2002 percentage)
Southeast Florida tax filers reported $2.4 billion in charitable contributions in 1997, about 43 percent of the state’s total individual giving. One-fourth of all Southeast Florida tax filers reported charitable giving; their average contribution was $3,879. The region’s tax filers gave an average 2.2 percent of their income, higher than the national average of 2.0 percent. This information is based on charitable giving data from only the 25 percent of Southeast Florida tax filers who itemize their tax returns. Significant additional charitable giving takes place outside the scope of IRS tax deductions. While largely undocumented, contributions from the other 75 percent of the region’s taxpayers (and perhaps also from those who file no tax returns) are an important part of the region’s philanthropic picture. Southeast Florida is home to 1,619 foundations, which have total assets of $8.8 billion, or 62 percent of the state’s total foundation wealth. The Miami-based John S. and James L. Knight Foundation is by far the state’s largest single foundation and the 26th largest in the nation. With $1.9 billion in assets, Knight Foundation has a larger asset base than the combined wealth of all foundations in each of Florida’s five regions outside the Southeast.

Southeast Florida’s foundations received $365.9 million in gift income and made grants totaling $534.9 million in the most recent year reported.

METHODOLOGY
Foundations. This study is limited to three essential types of foundations: private foundations, community foundations and hospital conversion foundations. These three groups represent the preponderance of all foundation types, both in Florida and across the nation. Community foundations have been operating in Florida since the 1950s, but have rapidly expanded their coverage within Florida only since the late 1980s. The formation of hospital conversion foundations represents another trend in Florida in the past two decades. A private foundation is recognized in the federal Internal Revenue Code, which requires it to comply with various rules affecting, among other things, its governance, grantmaking and disclosure. Private foundations include several subsets of foundations, such as operating foundations, corporate foundations, independent foundations and family foundations. For this study, Jankowski Associates, Inc., of Frederick, Maryland, identified the universe of private foundations and directly examined records from the IRS. In many cases, this review was supplemented by direct contact with foundations to obtain their most recent financial statements. More than 5,000 entities were identified as potential private foundations with headquarters operating in or for Florida, from which the professional review confirmed 3,254. Financial data were recorded from the most recent complete year available, with records from 2001 or 2002 representing more than 97 percent of those reviewed. Asset and giving data for private foundations come from IRS 990-PF forms. Assets reflect net assets at the end of the filing year. Giving is recorded for grants made and does not include qualifying distributions for administrative expenses. Community foundations are organized as public charities under the Internal Revenue Code and form a distinct type of grantmaker through their building of endowment from donors interested in specific communities and their focus on grantmaking for those local communities. Asset and giving data for community foundations are based on information from IRS 990 forms, the Foundation Center and the Columbus (Ohio) Foundation's national survey of community foundations. Hospital conversion foundations are created from the proceeds of the sale of assets from formerly nonprofit hospitals and health care systems with the intention to function as endowed grantmakers. Hospital conversion foundations can be organized as private foundations, community foundations or other public charities. L&M Associates, of Athens, Ohio, and Judy Hall Consulting, of Jacksonville, Florida, identified and collected the financial data of Florida’s community and hospital conversion foundations. Grants. The grants of the largest 15 private foundations (based on giving) in each of the six study regions in Florida were collected to assure the broadest geographic representation in the sample. One exception is the omission of grants from the F. W. Olin Foundation in Sarasota. Olin made just three grants, with one in the amount of $56 million – a statistical outlier more than five times larger than the next largest grant in the compilation. Altogether, the grants of the 90 private foundations reviewed represent more than half the total current annual giving by private foundations in Florida. Jankowski Associates compiled and catalogued more than 9,300 grants from private foundations. For community foundations and hospital conversion foundations, the study attempted to compile and catalog all grants over the most recent complete year. L&M Associates with Judy Hall Consulting reviewed nearly 6,000 grants. Grants were coded for purpose using the National Taxonomy of Exempt Entities (NTEE), a classification system used by IRS, the Foundation Center, the National Center on Charitable Statistics and others to characterize uniformly the activities of nonprofits and the use of charitably granted funds by nonprofits, individuals and agencies. Each grant was identified by recipient. The recipient’s address determined where the grant interest was recorded.
