THE

CLEVELAND

FOUNDATION

The Cleveland F o u n d atio n was established Jan u ary 2, 1914 to serve perm anently the h ealth, educatio nal and ch aritable needs o f the G reater Cleveland com m unity. T he first o f its kind and now widely copied, this com m unity tru st is ch arac足 terized by four m ain features: 1. Its funds are the union o f n um erous gifts, large, small and m edium -sized, left a t different tim es by various donors. 2. Local banks, w hich are T rustees o f the Cleveland F o u n 足 dation, safeguard and invest the funds, m aking available the incom e, and und er certain conditions, th e principal, for the charitab le purposes o f the F o u n d atio n . 3. E ndow m ent incom e, an d u n d er certain conditions, the principal, is disbursed by a D istrib u tio n C om m ittee o f five persons. M em bers serve w ith o u t co m p en sation fo r five-year term s. T w o are selected by the tru stee banks, and three are ap p o in ted by public officials. 4. A ny co n trib u to r m ay designate his p referred charity an d his wishes will be observed unless changing conditions m ake such purpose unnecessary, undesirable, im practical o r im pos足 sible. In such event the funds can thereafter be used for such oth er charitable and educational purposes as will, in the opinion o f the D istrib u tio n C om m ittee, m ore effectually p ro 足 m ote the public welfare.


THE YEAR N I N E T E E N SIXTY-ONE D uring the p ast year the F oundation com pleted forty-eight years o f philanthropic service to the G reater Cleveland comm unity. The year was m arked by a dram atic thirty-eight percent increase in assets and the disbursem ent o f nearly two m illion dollars for health, educational and charitable purposes. C apital assets increased by $10,681,853 o f which $9,605,788 represented new gifts. Thirteen new trust funds were established, which w ith additions to existing funds, brought the year-end endowm ent to $41,332,779 (book value). M arket value is greatly in excess of the carrying value on the books o f the trustee banks. M ore than h alf o f the year’s unusual increase in capital assets cam e as a result of two gifts from the Leonard C. H anna, Jr. Fund. T his F ou n d atio n has been one o f the m ajor forces in Cleveland philan­ thropy during recent years. D uring 1961 its trustees began the windingup o f its affairs, and handed along to the Cleveland F oundation the responsibility for seeing th at $6,000,000 is well used for the continuing benefit o f the com m unity. In doing so they gave impressive testim ony to the usefulness o f the Cleveland F o undation’s central purpose, which is sum m arized on the inside front cover o f this report. The F oundation now adm inisters 111 separate funds the incom e from which is allocated by the D istribution Com m ittee for philan­ thropic purposes. A list o f these funds, including usually the name of the donor, will be found on page 11 o f this Report. Certain o f the trusts currently provide only p a rtia l—but eventually com plete—benefit to the F oundation. D uring 1961 the D istribution Com m ittee authorized the disburse­ m ent o f $1,979,225 (including adm inistrative cost o f 2.2% ) for a wide

l


range o f health, educational, social welfare and civic purposes. A de­ tailed accounting of the 251 grants m ade to 133 different agencies is set forth later in this Report. T H IR T E E N

As examples o f the kind of problem the new organization m ight investigate, there was cited juvenile delinquency, the effects of autom a­ tion on local em ploym ent, the adaptation o f the newcom er to urban life and the social as well as physical aspects of urban renewal.
