ANNUAL REPORT 2015

Letter from Robert F. Finke – Chairman of the Board By every measure, 2015 was a memorable year for the Chicago Botanic Garden—and a year in which we laid the foundation for a promising future. In December 2015, on behalf of the Board of Directors, I was very pleased to announce the appointment of Jean M. Franczyk as president and CEO. Jean, a native of Chicago, brings strong science, education, and public programs expertise to the Garden. She has been in leadership roles with the Science Museum Group in the United Kingdom since 2006 and has served as deputy director of the Science Museum in London since 2014. She will continue the tradition of talented, visionary leadership at the Garden, following her predecessor, Sophia Shaw. Sophia served the Garden with distinction for ten years, and was president and CEO since 2007. We thank her for all she has accomplished.

Jean takes over a Garden in excellent physical and financial condition, thanks to the dedicated boards, staff, volunteers, benefactors, and all of our visitors who support the Garden as members or through gifts to the Garden. The Garden welcomed more than one million visitors for the third year in a row and remains on solid financial footing. In 2015, the Garden was recognized by Chicago Magazine as one of 20 standout nonprofits in Chicago, based on mission, value, community impact, and sound fiscal management. The Garden also received its third straight four-star rating from Charity Navigator, the country’s top charity evaluator. Only 14 percent of the charities that are rated have received at least three consecutive four-star evaluations.

The Garden’s primary source of funding—nearly $9.5 million—came from the Forest Preserves of Cook County, our valued partner in a long-standing public-private partnership. Also, in 2015, $28 million in total funds were raised, the third highest total in the Garden’s history, while grant awards and membership revenues both set records. Operating budget contributions hit an all-time high, with the Annual Fund supported by all three boards and President’s Circle members, and others.

The Garden also enjoyed growth in corporate sponsorship, support from foundations, and profits from fundraising events.

More than $8 million of new government grants were awarded in 2015, an increase of more than $2.5 million, supporting programs in science, education, and urban agriculture. For only the second time, the Garden secured more than $1 million in corporate sponsorships.

The Garden also took major steps forward on the two most important projects of “Keep Growing,” a $125 million capital and endowment initiative. In April 2015, thanks in part to a $10 million gift from the Regenstein Foundation, the Garden broke ground on the final two phases of the $28 million Regenstein Learning Campus—the Learning Center and the Nature Play Garden, both of which will open to the public in September 2016. In August 2015, the Garden cut the ribbon for the plant production nursery on the Kris Jarantoski Campus. Additional phases for new greenhouses and a shade evaluation garden on the $40 million Jarantoski Campus will be undertaken when the remaining $5.8 million needed to complete the Campus is secured.

We need your help to ensure that the Garden remains a vibrant, living museum for generations to come.

Every dollar of your support for “Keep Growing” projects will enable the Garden to continue to engage, educate, and inspire, and improve the health of plants and ecosystems close to home and around the world.

Today, the Garden’s future is brighter than ever. With Jean, our boards, our staff and volunteers, and, importantly, your help, the Garden will continue to build new ways for people to enjoy the Garden and benefit from its varied activities, which connect all of us to the role that plants and healthy habitats play in helping to sustain our world.

With gratitude and best wishes, 5

Robert F. Finke Chairman of the Board

Letter from Jean M. Franczyk – President & CEO Thanks to your support—along with a history of strong leadership and commitment from talented staff—the Chicago Botanic Garden is thriving. It is a privilege to lead this organization and leverage its capacity to connect people to nature through our science, horticulture, and education programs.

In 2015, the Garden received unprecedented media attention and hosted more than one million visitors. We reached more people than ever and connected the public to science and the natural world in unanticipated ways.

Looking forward, I expect the Garden to continue to deepen these connections through the new Regenstein Learning Campus, which opens to the public in September 2016. The Learning Center will offer plant-based learning, along with a range of health and wellness activities, aimed at creating excitement and curiosity about the natural world among people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds.

Participants will include early childhood educators, adults in wellness classes from cooking to yoga, and students in the Garden’s Science Career Continuum, which fosters interest in science careers among those still under-represented in the field, including women, African Americans, and Latinos.

The Learning Campus will complement the Garden’s plant science research and academic training, based at the Daniel F. and Ada L. Rice Plant Conservation Science Center.

In 2015, another important capital project moved forward as well, with the opening of the new nursery on the Kris Jarantoski Campus. When fundraising is complete, the Jarantoski Campus will ultimately include larger, more sophisticated greenhouses and a new shade garden.

Having worked in science museums for the past 15 years, I’ve grown to appreciate the power of storytelling in making complex stories more accessible. In 2015, the Garden had one of those stories in titan arums Spike and Alice the Amorphophallus. Nearly 181 million people around the world learned about the corpse flowers through various media sources. Even though Spike did not bloom, more

During a late September night, visitors filled the Semitropical Greenhouse to see, and smell, Alice the Amorphophallus.

than 75,000 people came to see the corpse flower. And on a Tuesday in September, on short notice, 8,000 people waited in line for up to three hours, and until 2 a.m., to see the spectacular, stinky Alice.

Both plants provided not only an opportunity to engage with the public like no other time in the Garden’s history but also showed how the intersection of science and horticulture can encourage a larger understanding on the conservation of plants.

Also in the spotlight in 2015 were Windy City Harvest’s urban agriculture and jobs-training initiatives.

Windy City Harvest received national exposure at Farm Aid, and in an October 2015 editorial, the Chicago Tribune featured Windy City Harvest’s programs as part of a series of recommendations on a new direction for Chicago. The editorial cited Windy City Harvest as a model on how to make a difference. Fernando Orozco, an ex-criminal offender, is just one example of how these jobs programs can change lives. Fernando and his partners run an incubator farm through Windy City Harvest, and grow vegetables and herbs for the federal Women, Infants, and Children program—the same program that provided food to Fernando’s family when he was growing up.

Garden scientists took the lead in several important conservation initiatives, including helping to develop a federal bill focused on enhancing plant conservation efforts and capacity. The Non-Federal Cooperators Committee (NFCC) of the Plant Conservation Alliance (PCA), with a membership of more than 300 organizations, was revitalized, and through the efforts of the NFCC, the Garden played a key role in establishing the National Seed Strategy for Rehabilitation and Restoration. This strategy will create a national network to ensure native seeds are available in restoration efforts, especially in fire-ravaged western rangelands.

The Garden continued its support of the Forest Preserves of Cook County’s Next Century Conservation Plan. Garden leaders hold positions on the Nature, People, Economy, and Leadership

planning committees and, along with Forest Preser ves staf f, are working to protect native landscapes and to make the preserves welcoming to all people.

In 2015, the Garden’s accomplishments also included the following: • A record number of visitors came to the Garden for events such as the Orchid Show, and more visitors attended our summer Evenings program.

• The Garden reinvigorated its plant collecting program. Garden horticulturists will travel within the United States and internationally to add new species to the Garden’s permanent collection of more than 2.6 million plants, representing 9,600 taxa.

• The first two doctoral degrees were awarded by the Garden’s plant biology and conservation graduate program, in partnership with Northwestern University.

• Garden scientists and graduate students were awarded a number of new research and training grants. The National Science Foundation renewed its support of the Garden’s summer undergraduate intern program as well as its funding for a study on the impact of fragmentation on prairie habitats.

• Since Plants of Concern began in 2001, the Garden has helped train 800 volunteers who have contributed 23,600 hours to monitoring rare plants in this region. In 2015, data collected by Plants of Concern contributed to the removal of several species—including the ear-leaved foxglove—from the state’s threatened list.

• Windy City Harvest grew 74,000 pounds of organic produce and generated $189,000 in sales, a 10 percent increase from 2014.

• The Garden commemorated the 125th anniversary of its founder, the Chicago Horticultural Society, with two special exhibitions, lectures, and a book, Chicago and Its Botanic Garden: The Chicago Horticultural Society at 125.

In 2015, the horticultural therapy program served 3,800 people, including veterans through the Thresholds Veterans Project, a mental health agency that helps transform the lives of people struggling with mental illness. Headquartered in the Buehler Enabling Garden, the program consists of a series of ten retreats at the Garden for 15 veterans and their therapists. “There’s something magical about it,” one veteran said about horticultural therapy at the Garden. “This place, it’s safe for us…it’s very important to have a safe place because when we were in other places in the world, defending this country, we never felt safe.” Stories like his remind me of how privileged I am to be at a place where serenity and the beauty of nature can calm the spirit and mind, and rekindle hope for the future.

This is the challenge I think about every day: how to stay true to the Garden’s mission while paying attention to how the world around us is changing. We need to respond to those changes so we remain relevant now and for future generations.

On behalf of the Chicago Botanic Garden,

Jean M. Franczyk President and CEO

Chicago Botanic Garden Financials 2015 Executive Summary As it moves into the second half of its ten-year “Keep Growing” strategic plan, the Chicago Botanic Garden continues to build new ways for people to connect to plants and nature. The work the Garden does each day in conservation and science, education, urban agriculture, and horticultural therapy continues to serve a broad and diverse community and helps to ensure that plants will be here to sustain the planet’s future. For the third consecutive year, the Garden welcomed more than one million visitors, and the number of member households remained steady at nearly 50,000. In addition, virtually all of the Garden’s revenue-producing activities exceeded the 2014 results, fueling the growth of its programs and amenities.

Operating Results The Garden ended 2015 with an operating surplus of $542,000, following a surplus of $589,000 in 2014. The operating surpluses were reinvested in necessary Garden operations. Operating revenue increased by $2.8 million, or 8 percent, to $35.9 million in 2015.

When board-designated and restricted net assets are included, total revenue was $47.4 million.

Operating expenses in 2015 were $35.3 million, an increase of $2.8 million, or 8.8 percent, from 2014, due primarily to expanded grant-funded science and education programs and higher costs to maintain the gardens and facilities on the Garden’s 385-acre campus and in the community.

With the inclusion of depreciation, interest expense, and other designated expenditures that are not included in the operating budget, total expenses for 2015 were $46 million.

Change in Net Assets The Garden’s statement of financial position reflects an increase in net assets of almost $2 million to $180.3 million in 2015 from $178.5 million at the end of 2014. The increase was due largely to strong operating and fundraising results, including a record total of new government grants awarded in 2015.

The $95.8 million of unrestricted net assets represented the majority of total net assets, while $55.4 million were temporarily restricted, and $29.1 million were permanently restricted. This compares to $95 million of unrestricted net assets, $55.5 million of temporarily restricted net assets, and $28 million of permanently restricted net assets in 2014.

Total assets increased to $241.2 million in 2015 from $237.7 million in 2014, an increase of $3.5 million.

Total liabilities increased by $1.6 million to $60.9 million at year-end.

Summary Each year, the Chicago Botanic Garden engages more people through its beauty and the strength of its public programs. With the support of its board, staff, volunteers, members, visitors, donors, and the Forest Preserves of Cook County, the Garden will continue to honor the ideals upon which its foundation was established, evolve as a public institution and recognized leader in plant conservation education and research, and enhance its standing as one of the leading botanic gardens of the world.

Complete, audited financial statements for the Chicago Botanic Garden, including the auditor’s report, for the year ended December 31, 2015, are available at chicagobotanic.org/financialreport.

Reneldia Gardner has mentored more than 125 teens at Windy City Harvest Youth Farm. “I’ll just eat the spinach right from the ground, and they just look at me. Then they try it—and they fall in love.

It touches my heart.”

Nearly 180,000 plants were propagated in the Plant Production department in 2015. The horticulture staff planted more than 360,000 annuals, bulbs, and orchids to support the curated collections and vibrant display gardens.

The National Science Foundation renewed funding for Stuart Wagenius’s work using the purple coneflower to understand the impact of fragmentation on prairie habitats.

Oscar Herrera spent six years in the Garden’s Science Career Continuum and is now pursing a master’s degree.

“I will always remember the soil labs, DNA projects, research presentations, and many more activities we performed inside the College First classroom.”

We cultivate the power of plants to sustain and enrich life.
