Message
For The Cleveland Foundation, 1990 was characterized by a search for new ways to maximize the impact of our grantmaking and other activities. It began with the estab lishment in January of the Cleveland Com m ission on Poverty, which is charged with recommending a com pre hensive plan for com batting persistent poverty in city neighborhoods, and ended in Decem ber with the Foun dation’s rededication, in the form of a $5-million com m it ment, to its goal of revitalizing Cleveland neighborhoods. In the intervening months, the D istribution Committee made a record $30.4 million in grants and $2.6 million in program-related investments, a way of using a portion of our assets to address high-priority program interests. In 1990, as it has in other recent years, much of the Founda

In early 1990, Corning Chisholm and N ational City Bank, as trustees of a private foundation, established a donor-advisor fund at The Cleveland Foundation. By the end of the year that private foundation, which had been nam ed in memory of his parents, had been dissolved and its more than $900,000 in assets had been transferred to the new Alvah Stone and Adele Corning Chisholm Donor-Advisor Fund of The Cleveland Foundation. Early in 1991, in the largest single gift The Cleveland Foundation has ever received, the trustees of the Treuhaft Foundation dissolved that foundation and used nearly $18 million of its assets to establish the Elizabeth M . and William C.

Beyond Good Intentions In the 77 years since its creation, The Cleveland Founda tion has sought to improve the quality of life in Greater Cleveland both by responding to the needs expressed by grantee organizations and by using its resources, human as well as financial, to initiate broader and deeper change. In the Foundation’s earliest years, before it had sufficient funds with which to make grants, its currency was public opinion: the Foundation’s governing board commissioned a series of public surveys on critical issues of the day, including public education in the city of Cleveland, the

This altered environment forces us to think in bigger terms than ever before. We had some successes in the ’80s— most notably in downtown and lakefront development— that show what this community is capable of when it puts its collective mind to accomplishing something. As we turn to the harder task of developing our human resources more fully, it is clear that making grants and operating programs in the traditional ways is not going to make the difference we want to make.

The Foundation’s D istribution Committee, a group of 11 civic leaders who bring richly varied experiences and points of view to their stewardship, devoted a great deal of time in 1990 to thinking about how to use the Founda tion’s resources to have a meaningful im pact in improving the quality of life for all greater Clevelanders. From these discussions emerged four imperatives: Think strategically. Focus on the most critical elements. Seek and promote opportunities fo r collaboration. And insist on results. We believe these principles can apply not only to the Foundation, but also to the nonprofit organizations that do the day-to-day work of rehabilitating houses, shelter ing and feeding the homeless, teaching preschoolers, and

This is the premise behind the Cleveland Com m ission on Poverty, established by the Foundation in early 1990: that we must begin looking at poverty in a comprehensive way and begin developing a realistic plan for applying what works. Although the Com m ission’s recommendations will not be issued until the end of 1991, the com m unity’s understanding of persistent poverty will be enhanced by the exchange of views among this highly diverse group. It is the Foundation’s expectation that this deepened under standing will lead to new forms of collaboration.

When new law school graduate Lillian Burke first applied for a law clerk position in the Cleveland courts, she was directed to the secretarial pool instead. She overcame the insult to achieve a distinguished legal career highlighted by an appointment as Ohio’s first black female judge. Proceeds from a retirement banquet honoring her 19 years on the bench helped endow the Lillian W. Burke Scholarship Fund at The Cleveland Foundation. Continuing contributions ensure the Fund's ability to assist minority students studying music and the law.
S upp or t i n g Organizations The supporting organization is a unique form of charitable giving that enables an individual or members of a family to take advantage of the services and pro fessional assistance available from a community foundation while maintaining an active involvement in the grantmaking process. Seven supporting organizations were affiliated with The Cleveland Foundation in 1990. Each has committed its assets to the benefit and charitable purposes of the Foundation, yet retains a separate corporate identity. In 1990, $1,708,854 was awarded to 105 programs which benefit the entire Greater Cleveland community. During the same period, we are pleased to report, additions to these funds totaled $137,155. The first supporting organization of The Cleveland Foundation was created in 1973 by John and Frances Wick Sherwin. In that year, after 20 years of operation as a family foundation, The Sherwick Fund became the first pri vate foundation in the country to gain affiliation with a community trust. The trustees of The Sherwick Fund approve grants for a variety of educational, health, social services and cultural arts programs. In 1990, 39 grants were approved totaling $727,706.
The Goodrich Social Settlement was also a private foundation prior to its affiliation in 1979 with The Cleveland Foundation. Grants approved by the trustees of this Fund benefit, but are not limited to, The Goodrich-Gannet Neigh borhood Center and the LexingtonBell Community Center. Ten grants totaling $112,820 were authorized in 1990. The five remaining supporting organizations became affiliated with the Foundation without prior philanthropic structure. The Elizabeth and Ellery Sedgwick Fund was created by the Sedgwicks in 1978. In 1990 the Fund benefited general charitable activi ties in the Cleveland area with 12 grants totaling $110,078. The Alton F. and Carrie S. Davis Fund, created in 1979, provided major support for the Free Medi cal Clinic of Greater Cleveland’s new adolescent clinic among its 1990 grants of $27,500. Another source of philanthropic dollars for the Cleveland area is The Wolpert Fund, created in 1980 by Samuel and Roslyn Wolpert. Thirty-one grants were approved in 1990, providing $41,250 for a variety of charitable activities.
18
The first supporting organization in the country to become affiliated with both a community founda tion and another charity was The Treu-Mart Fund. Established in 1980 by William C. and Elizabeth M. Treuhaft, The Treu-Mart Fund is a supporting organization of both The Cleveland Foundation and The Jewish Community Fed eration of Cleveland. In 1990, among its nine grants, the trustees of the Fund provided a lead grant of $350,000 to the Children’s Defense Fund to establish a child advocacy office in Cleveland. Total grants authorized by the Fund were $526,000. In late December 1984 The McDonald Fund, created by Charles McDonald, became the newest supporting organization of The Cleveland Foundation. The McDonald Fund currently focuses on encouraging small business development in the city of Cleve land. In 1990, two grants were made totaling $163,500. Detailed listings of the 1989 grants of The Sherwick Fund, The TreuMart Fund and The Wolpert Fund may be found in biennial reports published separately and available at The Cleveland Foundation.

The members of the Distribution Committee con vene in a series of meetings four times a year— usually March, June, September and December—to award grants. Because The Cleveland Foundation is a community trust, its grantmaking is restricted— except where a donor has directed the Foundation to support a particular agency in another geographic location—to the Greater Cleveland area.
G r a n t m a k i n g Policies a n d Process The Cleveland Foundation makes grants primarily to tax-exempt private agencies which the Internal Revenue Service has classified as 501(c)(3) organizations and some times to governmental agencies. No grants are made to individuals.
Wh o is eligible to receive grants?
The Foundation is looking for innovative programs that address problems to be solved, or opportunities to be seized, in the Greater Cleveland area. It is not interested in funding the operating costs of estab lished programs and agencies except where the donor has so provided. A booklet entitled Guidelines for Grantseekers, which discusses all of these points in more detail, as well as the components of a good proposal and the proce dure for proposal submission (at least three months before the meeting at which it is to be considered), is available free of charge by writing, phoning or stopping by The Cleveland Foundation, 1422 Euclid Avenue, Suite 1400, Cleveland, Ohio 44115-2001, 216/861-3810. The Cleveland Foundation’s grantmaking is governed by an 11member Distribution Committee (see page 44). 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 Com mittee, composed of the chief executive officers of the Foundation’s trustee banks (page 48). Five are appointed by public officials* and together select a sixth person with a background in philanthropy. All serve without pay, normally for a five-year term, and for a maximum of 10 years.
W ho decides which grants are made?
20
In addition to its grantmaking, the Foundation in special circumstances sometimes makes programrelated investments (PRIs). PRIs can take several forms including loans, loan guarantees and equity investments and are made for projects that address the Foundation’s highest program priorities. Each proposal submitted (which must include a detailed budget) is assigned by the associate director to a program officer accord ing 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 outside experts in the field.
W hat is the process?
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 associate director write a staff evaluation. This is carefully examined by the appropriate Sub committee of the Distribution Committee prior to the quarterly meeting of the full Committee. The Committee as a whole decides, in the light of the Subcommittee’s recommendation and staff’s com ments, whether to fund or decline the proposal. *O ne member o f the Distribution Committee is appointed by each o f the fol lowing: the chiefjudge o f the United States District Court, Northern District o f Ohio, Eastern Division ; the presiding judge o f the Probate Court of Cuya hoga County; the mayor o f Cleveland; the president of the Federation for Community Planning-, and the chief justice o f the Court o f Appeals for the Eighth Appellate District o f Ohio.

Notes to Financial Statements
The Cleveland Foundation December 31, 1990
Note A -The financial statements include the accounts of The Cleveland Foundation (“charitable corporation” ), The Greater Cleveland Foundation, The Cleveland Foundation (“community trust” ) and their affiliated supporting organizations: The D avis Fund, The G oodrich Social Settlement Fund, The M cD onald Fund, The Sedgwick Fund, The Sherwick Fund and The Wolpert Fund. The supporting organizations were established under the provisions of Section 509(a)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Cleveland Foundation is responsible for expenditures of the supporting organizations for specific charitable purposes. Interorganizational transactions and accounts have been eliminated. The financial statements are not intended to present financial position and results of operations in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles on the
I n c o m e for G r a n t m a k i n g

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 investment revenue and the
35
related assets are recognized when received rather than when earned and certain expenses are recognized when paid rather than when the obligation is incurred. Certain trusts, established for the benefit of The Cleveland Foundation (“commu nity trust” ), have been excluded from the accompanying statements until such
30 25 20
time as they have been formally transferred to The Cleveland Foundation.
Note B-C ontributions to The Cleveland Foundation are recorded at market value
15
at the date the contribution is received, which becom es cost. Securities and other
10
investments are reported at their market value. Securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price on the last business day of the year; investments traded in the over-the-counter market and listed secu rities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at fair value based investments are valued at cost which approximates market. Certain other invest ments are valued at fair value as determined by The Cleveland Foundation or its trustee banks. Realized net gain from sale of assets is the difference between net proceeds received and the cost of assets sold. The changes in the difference between market values and cost are reflected in the financial statements as increase in unrealized net gain on securities and other investments.

Note G -T h e Internal Revenue Service has ruled that the community trust, The Greater Cleveland Foundation, the charitable corporation and each of the sup porting organizations qualify under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and are, therefore, not subject to tax under present income tax laws.

In Remembrance o f Service
The Cleveland Foundation lost a good friend and longtime supporter with the death of John Sherwin, Sr. A former D istribution Com m ittee member who served as chairperson from 1963 to 1971, Sherwin was a strong-willed, dynamic leader who played a pivotal role at a critical junc ture in the Foundation’s history. John Sherwin believed a community foundation’s purpose should go beyond just supporting the ongoing budgets of existing ventures. Greatly intrigued with new ideas, he felt it was the Foundation’s job to be more directly involved in the early stages of project development. Through his leadership, The Cleveland Founda tion moved to assume this new role in its grantmaking, and in the process forged a new dim ension for the m od ern community foundation. But Sherwin’s vision encom passed more
than Cleveland. One of the first to dream of a philanthropic fund to address the charitable and educa tional needs of the citizens of Lake and G eauga counties, his unflagging commitment to this dream led to the creation of the Lake-Geauga Fund. The nephew of Belle Sherwin, who served on The Cleveland Founda tion’s very first D istribution Com m it tee from 1917 to 1924, John Sherwin, Sr., was chairman of Cleveland’s Pickands M ather & Co. H e was an active board member of the Cleve land M useum of Natural History, the Cleveland Cham ber of Commerce, and served as a trustee of the Cleve land Clinic Foundation an unprece dented 57 years. H is contributions to The Cleveland Foundation, however, went far beyond his tenure on the D istribution Committee. In 1973 he advanced a bold idea when he created the very first supporting organization of The Cleveland

Foundation—The Sherwick Fund. Formerly a family foundation estab lished in 1953 by Sherwin and his wife Frances Wick Sherwin, The Sherwick Fund was a separate grantmaking entity serving general charita ble needs in Greater Cleveland. A fter nearly 20 years of operation, the Sherwins dissolved this family trust and joined its assets with those of the Foundation. Since that time, The Sherwick Fund has continued to serve the community through grants in the areas of health and education. Sherwin’s son, Joh n Sherwin, Jr., is now president of the Fund. John Sherwin, Sr., died February 20, 1991, at age 89, but is remembered with thanks and gratitude for his years of service, courageous leadership, and ability to foresee the future and make provisions for its needs.
