THE CHAIRPERSON S MESSAGE Recently I had the opportunity to attend a gathering of representa­ tives of the 25 largest community foundations in the United States. The experience underscored for me the leadership role The Cleve­ land Foundation enjoys nationally. The role it plays at home is familiar to all of us, but I was grati­ fied to learn that The Cleveland Foundation is universally looked up to by the other 300 community trusts around the country as the community foundation to emulate in many respects. As the nation’s first, and today the second-largest (with assets of $459 million at the end of 1987), it has taken an un­ usually active part in its communi­ ty’s life— from Cleveland’s recovery from default to the rebirth of Play­ house Square. The year 1987 was an excep­ tional one for the Foundation, with a record $26.2 million in grant authorizations, including over $3 million toward new Special Initiatives in education and neigh­ borhood development. The Distri­ bution Committee recently decided to augment these large-scale Initia­ tives with a major commitment to the development of the lakefront. (See the essay that follows.) None of this, of course, would be possible if it were not for the generosity of our donors through the years. In this respect, too, 1987 was an exceptional year, with ad­ ditions to our endowment exceeding

In addition, some 29 area corporations have invested, under the auspices of Cleveland Tomorrow, a total of $1.2 million in new limited partnerships to provide capitalfor neighborhoodprojects. ■ Another dra­ matic example of a new willingness on the part of this community’s leadership to put aside minor differences and make the necessary investment in Cleveland’sfuture is seen in the Cleveland Initiative for Education (CIE). Since this ambitious program, unlike any other in the nation, was launched last summer with an initial commitment of S3 mil­ lion from The Cleveland Foundation (since increased to nearly $4 million), almost three-quarters of the $16 million neededfor this bold and inno­ vative program has been pledged by area corporations, banks and foundations.

And sometimes ideas emerge from the Foundation’s ongoing dialogue with community leaders and persons here and around the country who are knowledgeable in certain areas. Such a process led to the Foundation’s decision last May to focus a significant share of its staff and funding resources over the next few years on large-scale initiatives in public school educa­ tion and neighborhood revitaliza­ tion, and to the announcement, this spring, of a third major initia­ tive focusing on the development of Cleveland’s lakefront. The Foundation has also developed, in this manner, a set of strategic concerns in its six program areas which it welcomes opportu­ nities to address. But it is important, too, we feel, that The Cleveland Foundation retain its ability to respond quickly and flexibly to emerging needs and opportunities of the sort that could not have been foreseen— the good ideas that walk in the front door or arrive in the mailbox one Monday morning. You’ll find many examples of these, too, in the pages that follow. And, thanks to the generosity of many Clevelanders who have entrusted a share of their resources to the conscientious stewardship of The Cleveland Foundation, we have the ability— and the flexi­ bility— to give those ideas a chance. It’s a challenging business, sorting out the most promising ones from the many that come our way. I am blessed, in that undertaking, with a Distribution Committee and a professional staff that can recog­ nize an idea whose time has come.

WHO DECIDES WHICH GRANTS ARE MADE?

The Cleveland Foundation’s grantmaking is governed by an 11-member Distribution Committee (see page 42). Its members, who set policy and allocate fund income and principal, are chosen for their knowledge of the community. Five are appointed by the Trustees Committee, composed of the chief executive officers of the Foundation’s trustee banks (page 49). Five are appointed by public officials*

WHAT IS THE PROCESS? Each proposal submitted (which must include a detailed budget) is assigned by the director to a program officer according to the general subject area

into which it falls. A promising one will undergo a comprehensive review, drawing on the varied experience of the staff and Distribution Committee members and occasionally on out­ side experts in the field. ■ After meeting with representatives of the organization submitting the proposal, and frequently working with them to refine it, the program officer and the Foundation’s director write a staff evaluation. This is carefully examined by the appropriate Subcommittee of the Distribution Committee prior to the quarterly meeting of the full Committee. The Committee a5 a whole decides, in the light of the Subcom­ mittee’s recommendation and staff’s comments, whether to fund or decline the proposal. *One member ofthe Distribution Committee is appointed by each of thefollowing: the chiefjudge of the United States District Court, Northern District of Ohio, Eastern Division; the presidingjudge of the Probate Court of Cuyahoga County; the mayor of Cleveland; the president of the Federation for Community Planning; and the chief justice of the Court ofAppealsfor the Eighth Appellate District of Ohio.

EDUCATION

The Foundation moved on several fronts during 1987 to help strengthen the Cleveland Public Schools. Major grants went to support a special ori­ entation program for the scores of new teachers recruited to replace those taking early retirement, and to the establishment of the Leadership Academy for the training of the new principals and administrators who will be needed to run an increasingly decentralized school system. Mean­ while, the Foundation helped pull together, under the aegis of the Greater Cleveland Roundtable, an Ad Hoc Strategy Group of key leaders from the nonprofit, business and education sectors and retained a professional consultant to aid them in developing and strengthening school/community partnerships. ■ The most dramatic result of that collaboration was the launching last summer— with a $3million commitment from The Cleve­ land Foundation— of a $l6-million Cleveland Initiative for Education. The idea behind it is a simple one: In a school system in which 70 percent of the students receive some form of public assistance, and more than half are from single-parent households, it is up to the schools and the commu­ nity to provide these disadvantaged youths with the kind of support, hope and vision middle-class students get from their families. ^ The communitywide effort, which has already raised more than $11 million from area banks, funders and corporations

has two components: a Scholarshipin-Escrow program— the first such systemwide program in the nation— to enable city high school and junior high school students to earn money for college or technical training by their performance in core subjects; and a School-to-Work Transition pro­ gram to provide job readiness training, part-time employment and priority consideration for full-time positions upon graduation. ■ Another focal point of the Foundation’s recent efforts has been its commitment to maintaining or improving access to programs in higher education for all socioeconomic groups.

These include the highly successful Law and Public Service (LPS) Magnet School, which uses a curriculum specially devel­ oped by Cleveland State University’s Marshall School of Law that focuses on law, responsibility and learning through “ shadowing” professionals: 61 percent of LPS’s 1987 graduating class has gone on to college, com­ pared with 30 percent districtwide.

And, through Cleveland State Univer­ sity’s CDC/LDC Internship program, six students from the College of Urban Affairs are involved in co-op work experiences with community and local development corporations— organizations active in the rapidly growing field of neighborhood revi­ talization. E The Foundation’s other special purpose fund in education, the Statewide Program for Business and Management Education (PBME), was established in 1982 with the support of the L. Dale Dorney Fund to strengthen business and manage­ ment education at four-year institu­ tions of higher learning in Ohio. ■ The projects funded last year include creative efforts to address such important issues as the man­ agement of new and emerging tech­ nologies, communications and the increasingly international character of today’s business.

ECONOMIC DEVEIOPMENT America’s urban ruins, the older downtown business districts once the symbol of the obsolescence to which so many northern manufac­ turing centers had succumbed, are being seen these days as an asset to be exploited. Cleveland’s longneglected Warehouse District and adjacent area along the river known as the Flats are becoming a new hub for downtown residential develop­ ment and nightlife. ■ Indeed, in 1987Progressive Architecture selected the Flats Oxbow long-range develop­ ment plan funded in part by The Cleveland Foundation as one of the top two urban design plans— from a field of 805 such efforts. A three-year grant is currently helping to under­ write the implementation of develop­ ment priorities set forth in that plan, while similar support is helping pre­ serve the historic character of Cleve­ land’s Warehouse District as develop­ ment moves forward. ■ Though the Foundation’s status as a public charity precludes its direct participation in the rebuilding of local business, it can play an important role in foster­ ing a supportive environment for economic development. One way it can do this is through funding the kinds of planning, testing and pre­ development activities that lay the groundwork for major community projects with potentially massive economic impact— such as the Inner Harbor, a new stadium in the Central Market area and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. ■ The Cleveland Foundation has concen­ trated an increasing share of its eco­

CIVIC AFFAIRS

The Foundation’s Special Initiative in Housing and Neighborhoods an­ nounced at its 1987 Annual Meeting grew out of more than a quartercentury of commitment and work to strengthen the quality of life in Cleve­ land’s neighborhoods. ■ Through a major grant to the newly formed Cleveland Neighborhood Partnership Program, The Cleveland Foundation and other funders are freeing several of the city’s more accomplished neighborhood development groups from the continual worry of raising core operating costs so that they can concentrate their efforts and hardwon skills on projects of scale. The result will be more than 300 units of new or renovated housing and sev­ eral revitalized commercial strips, mobilizing as much as $12 million in new investment in these neighbor­ hoods. ■ A 1100,000 grant to the Cleveland Housing Network, another umbrella project nurtured since 1982 by the Foundation, is supporting an effort to weatherize 1,500 homes in 20 low-income neighborhoods. Through a landmark arrangement negotiated by the Foundation and BP America, these projects will qualify for SI.2 million in special state funds. ■ The vitality of downtown Cleve­ land is another priority concern of the Foundation, which continued, in 1987, to support the critical work of the North Coast Development Corpo­ ration in moving the city’s exciting

new Inner Harbor project closer to

CULTURAL AFFAIRS

Art came to the marketplace last year with an exciting new development. When the owners of a new glasscovered downtown shopping mall, the Galleria, offered the Cleveland Center for Contemporary Art 4,500 square feet of rent-free space, the Foundation agreed to assist with the cost of turning the space into a gal­ lery. ■ The Center, founded in 1968 as the New Gallery of Contemporary Art and based in University Circle, had previously served a loyal, but relatively small clientele knowledge­ able about recent art— mostly collec­ tors, artists and art students. Now it faced a new challenge as, between October and April, more than 90,000 visitors wandered through its down­ town exhibition space, many of them casual shoppers encountering con­ temporary art for the first time in a gallery setting. ■ The Center’s new educational director (brought on board last summer with another Cleveland Foundation grant) quickly organized a docent program using volunteer art educators to lead the curious visitors through the strange new world of contemporary art. Last fall brought an Andy Warhol retrospective; this winter, a one-man show by John Pearson, an artist based in nearby Oberlin whose work is turning up these days in national and European collections. The show’s catalogue featured a major piece on Pearson by Art in America’s David Kuspit. ■ Building a wider audience for the arts is the goal of 21 visual and per­ forming arts organizations brought

20

together by the Foundation in 1984. A professional marketing survey of 100,000 households within a one to two-and-a-half hour drive of Cleve­ land yielded highly promising results, indicating a strong basis on which to build a new, extended audience for Cleveland’s cultural offerings; and a media weekend that brought out-oftown editors and arts writers resulted in favorable regional and national coverage. The Public Relations Society of America pronounced the whole effort the nation’s best new market­ ing communications program for a

land area, the 21 groups have formed an arts consortium chaired by Cleve­

to explore and coordinate further opportunities for collaboration. All of these activities have been stimulated by the Foundation in the belief that the long-term stability of Cleveland’s major cultural assets depends in large part on the ability of these organiza­ tions to cultivate a broader base of users and patrons. ■ Significant staff time, as well as funding, was also committed during 1987 to the nurturing of several of Cleveland’s smaller or more fragile institutions and promising young talent on which the future also depends, such as the vivacious Tom Evert Dance Company, founded last year by a former prin­ cipal dancer with the Paul Taylor Company.

HEALTH

The appalling infant mortality rate in Cleveland’s inner city, 40 percent higher than the national average, was the focus of the Foundation’s largest grant last year in the health area. Highly sophisticated prenatal and postnatal services were available; the problem was they were not being utilized by women falling into the “ high-risk” pregnancy category. Under an experimental program funded in part by the Foundation, several innovative approaches to this problem are being tried. ■ At the Cuyahoga County Hospital System’s Kenneth Clement Center for Family Health Care on the city’s East Side, a pilot outreach program attracting national attention is training women from the neighborhood to identify and contact pregnant young women and then shepherd them through prenatal care. An approach being tried in another neighborhood builds on the existing social infrastructure, using local churches and community centers to reach these women. Both approaches will be evaluated, along with others being tested, to determine the most effective— and efficient— model. ■ The Foundation’s commit­ ment to the indigent and underserved groups is matched by a concern with keeping care affordable. At Cleveland Metropolitan General Hospital a recent grant will enable admitting physi­ cians to limit the number of often costly diagnostic tests performed on

incoming patients through the use of computer decision analysis— a com­ plex new technique refined in Cleve­ land over the last three years with Cleveland Foundation support.

SOCIAL SERVICES

Teenage pregnancy was the focus of a good deal of attention nationally during 1987. Locally, the Cuyahoga County Teen Pregnancy Prevention Project was launched by the Federa­ tion for Community Planning, with support from The Cleveland Founda­ tion, to develop an organized, communitywide approach to reducing what is the second highest birth rate in the nation among unwed teens. Meanwhile, the West Side Adolescent Services Network, a coordinated effort by 10 social service agencies has developed a program that seems to have reduced births to teens by as much as 24 percent. ■ Taking an educational approach, the Network has gone into intermediate schools with a comprehensive curriculum that addresses sexuality and the many facets of human relationships that bear on the emotional, physio­ logical and social development of adolescents. A Cleveland Foundation grant is currently enabling the Net­ work to expand its curriculum, aimed at adolescent males, to two other schools as well as to develop 20 groups providing more personal attention to 200 boys. The effectiveness of this promising program will be carefully evaluated during the grant period. H The Foundation’s special commit­ ment to programs providing services to children and youth at risk, one of its three priority concerns in the

of developmental problems that, left untreated, could lead to substance abuse or dropping out of school.

trust companies, is also supported by The Cleveland Foundation. During 1987 the Forum sponsored 24 oppor­ tunities for funders to become better

The funds expended for special phil­ anthropic services go primarily for the operating costs of The Cleveland Foundation but include support for services to other Northeast Ohio charitable institutions with limited or no staff— services such as The Foun­ dation Center-Cleveland (Kent H. Smith Library) which makes available the expertise of two full-time profes­ sionals. The Center, which marked its 10th birthday in 1987, houses materials relating to the grantmaking process, corporate and federal fund­ ing sources, nonprofit organization and management, and nongrant fundraising, as well as specific infor­ mation on the policies and interests of foundations around the state and nation. ■ The library has had 24,054 visitors in the decade since it became the Midwest field office of The Foun­ dation Center of New York. Besides free weekly orientation sessions (attended last year by 800 first-time grantseekers), Foundation CenterCleveland presents programs annually focusing on subjects of interest to grantseekers and funders. ■ To cel­ ebrate its anniversary, the library

informed on issues relevant to their grantmaking, exchange ideas with colleagues and participate in profes­ sional development workshops. Some topics addressed: crime, open hous­ ing, progress in the Cleveland Public Schools, teen pregnancy, waterfront development and ethics in grantmak­ ing. The Greater Cleveland Measur­ able Growth in Giving and Volun­ teering Project is the local response to “ Give Five,” a nationwide cam­ paign developed by Independent Sector to encourage Americans to give five hours a week and five percent of their income to causes they believe in. A $75,000 grant will underwrite a four-county survey of giving and volunteering patterns to provide baseline data for measuring growth. These and many other collabora­ tive projects benefiting Cleveland were championed by the late James S. Lipscomb during 18 years as exec­ utive director of The George Gund Foundation. With his death last June we lost an outstanding colleague and friend.

COMBINED FUNDS ombined Funds were created within The Cleveland Foun­ dation in 1943 to provide a means through which gifts of any size could more inexpensively be administered. Several thousand donors have contributed to Combined Funds since their creation. Gifts retain their separate identity as memorials but are combinedfor in­ vestmentpurposes, therebyproviding a large block of capitalfor more efficient investment management and greater income potential. ■ Gifts to a Combined Fund may be made in the name ofan individual or as memorials. There is no restric­ tion as to size, and additions may be made at any time. Donors are encouraged to make their gifts available for the charitable and educationalpurposes of Greater Cleveland, since this enables the Foundation to beflexible in meeting changing community needs and problems. H In 1987 the value of newfunds and additions to existing funds totaled $1,247,252.

The accompanying financial statements are not intended to present financial position and results of operations in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles on the accrual method; rather, it continues to be the Foundation’s consistent policy to prepare its financial statements primarily on the acceptable accounting method of cash receipts and disbursements by which certain revenue and the related assets are recognized when received rather than when earned and certain expenses are recognized when paid rather than when the obligation is incurred. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly the financial position, arising primarily from cash transactions, of The Cleveland Foundation as of December 31, 1987 and 1986, and the revenue, expenses and changes in its fund balances for the years then ended, on the basis of accounting described above, which has been applied on a consistent basis.
