make dreams come Making a difference in our community takes leadership, innovation and creativity. When The Chronicle of Philanthropy looked back over the 20th Century to identify the ten seminal events that shaped the nonprofit world, the founding of The Cleveland Foundation was cited* We are pleased with this recognition, but underlying this honor is the challenge to con tinually renew the Foundation and meet new goals. We invite you to read this report, a sum mary of our first year of the 21st Century, and see how the spirit of our heritage is alive in the innovative work we do today.
Growth in New Funds: We are delighted that the Foundation received over $44 million in new gifts in 2000, more than double the amount we received last year. Seventyfive new funds were initiated, which means more people than ever are using the Foundation 2
3
to fulfill their philanthropic wishes. In fact, over the past five years 240 new funds have been created compared to the 784 established since 1914.
Well-managed Investments: There was significant instability in the stock market in 2000, but we enjoyed a positive outcome thanks to the diversification of our portfolio. We experienced an overall composite performance of nearly 4.4 percent as opposed to a negative .8 percent compar ative benchmark.**
Focus on Key Issues: While the Foundation is active in many areas, we want to highlight our ongoing work in four areas of grantmaking and community engagement: education, the arts, early childhood development and the environment. The Foundation placed greater emphasis on education in 2000 than at any time in its
history. Over $7 million in grants were awarded, an 84 percent increase over the previ ous year. Our highest priority continued to be the Cleveland Municipal School District, with attention to standards implementation; principal and teacher development; research and evaluation; and school facility renewal. In the 11 school districts surrounding the city, we increased from three to seven the districts benefiting from our concern for academic accountability. We also funded a collaborative of the first-ring superintendents to find ways to improve policies and practices across these districts. In the arts, we continued our emphasis on strengthening cultural organizations while helping major institutions expand outreach efforts. Building the Arts’ Strength in Cleveland (BASICs) concluded
its second year of a five-year commitment to help 15 arts organizations build capacity. A major technology upgrade for all BASICs organizations was completed. In May of 2000 the Partnership for Arts and Culture, supported by the Foundation, published
Northeast Ohio's Arts and Culture Plan , a working set of blueprints for strengthening arts and culture in the region. We’re pleased that the Cuyahoga County Early Childhood Initiative (ECI) celebrated its first year in July, having exceeded nearly all its goals. This collaborative effort between the Board of Cuyahoga County Commissioners and more than 20 local foundations and corporations grew out of the Foundation’s effort to develop a framework for improving the quality of life for children from newborn to age three.

FOUNDATION:
The year 2000 marked the first full year of activity in a new program area, the environment. Primary emphasis was placed on land preservation. We funded the Northeast Ohio Land Protection Fund, which assists in preserving waterfront land. We also supported the Trust for Public Land with two grants one to expand its Ohio office and support a survey on area parks, and another toward its $2 million land protection fund.
Strengthening the Foundation: Much has been written about capacity building and governance in the nonprofit industry. We looked inward and identified ways to strengthen the Foundation and started by establishing a new governance model for our Board of Trustees; developing a new e-philanthropy initiative that will be launched in 2001; and renewing our commitment to the Playhouse
Square area by acquiring addi tional office space in the Hanna building, thereby allowing for growth and providing conference facilities for area nonprofit organizations.
Fond Farewell: On behalf of the Greater Cleveland community, we express sincere gratitude to James V. Patton for his service on the Board of Trustees from 1991 to 2001. During this tenure he provided leadership on complex issues in the areas of health, social services and education. We close by expressing our deep appreciation to the Foundation’s dedicated volunteer board and its exceptional staff who are building on the work of their predecessors and helping our community’s dreams for the 21st Century come true. * The Chronicle of Philanthropy, January 11, 2001 ** Return on a portfolio with 60% S&P 500 and 40% Lehman Brothers

Building the Arts’ Strength in Cleveland (BASICs) concluded its second year of activities. The program’s objective is to strengthen 15 arts organizations by helping them acquire the ability to manage risk and develop best operating prac tices. BASICs is at the midpoint of its five-year phase and we have begun an evalua tion to help us decide whether the program should continue, evolve or end in 2003-2004. National Arts Stabilization (NAS) was hired to give BASICs organizations individualized technical assistance and work with them on strategic planning, financial stabilization and building internal capacity. NAS also presented professional development seminars for the entire arts community. The seminars provided high quality professional development to many of Cleveland’s arts executives and board members. About 165 staff and board members from 33 organizations participated.
Capacity-building grants totaling $715,000 were made to three BASICs organizations the Cleveland Center for Contemporary Art, The Cleveland Play House, and Great Lakes Theater Festival for research and consultation, and to build working capital and professional staffs. We are optimistic about the difference these dollars will make in the organizations’ institutional strength and resilience.
Greater Cleveland experi enced some notable losses in 2000. The 24-year-old Cleveland San Jose Ballet closed its doors in September after many years of struggle and financial diffi culty. We made a special grant to provide past-due wages to dancers and staff. At year-end we were notified that the Ohio Chamber Orchestra would also cease operations.

<H However, there continues to be great vibrancy in our cultural community. Established institu tions continue to move to a new level, either in the quality of programs they offer or in their engagement with the community. Smaller groups are looking to advance their organizational proficiency through strategic planning, fund development and board structuring and development.
Establishing a supportive public policy environment for the arts is key to the growth and vitality of the arts in Greater Cleveland. Since 1998 the Foundation has been the fiscal agent for the Community Partnership for Arts and Culture (the Partnership). In May the Partnership pub lished Northeast Ohio’s Arts and Culture Plan. Research for the Plan was based on community feedback from more than 6,000 consumers at 50 different cul tural events and the largest cultural market analysis ever conducted in our region. Findings encompassed research from more than 250,000 house holds that regularly benefit from a wide array of arts and cultural offerings from 55 differ ent organizations. Since the Plan was unveiled, the Partnership has continued its work in convening and broker ing partnerships between arts, business, economic development and public sectors, toward the goal of expanding local public support for the arts.
“I started a fund at The Cleveland Foundation because I appreciate the flexibility it offers - staff makes it easy for me to give to organizations I care about and I can change the focus of my fund at any time. It also gives me the chance to make a differ ence in my community.” Clark Hungerford

We supported City Year Cleveland, a program that unites racially, culturally and economically diverse young adults ages 17 to 23 in a year of full-time community service and leadership development. We also provided startup support for Bridge Builders, a new organization created to develop the skills of the next generation of community leaders. Bridge Builders works to increase awareness of the issues and opportunities facing Cleveland, and encourages young leaders to become involved in addressing these issues. To help improve the quality of life in our city’s neighbor hoods, we supported ParkWorks’ school playground project. In collaboration with the Cleveland Municipal School District and the City of Cleveland, ParkWorks began developing more than 10 playgrounds and learning gardens. Goals of the project include reinvigorating declining local urban neighborhoods, bringing together residents and institutions, and providing outdoor recreational facilities for children.
ment. Lutheran Housing Corporation received funds for its East Cleveland Housing Program, which focuses on improving housing conditions and increasing home ownership among low- and moderateincome residents. We also made a grant to Neighborhood Progress, Inc. to assist neigh borhood organizations with the development of retail districts in Garrett Square and Three Points. Downtown development is also central to our work. In collaboration with six downtown development corporations, Cleveland Tomorrow, a major financial institution and the City of Cleveland, grants and loans were made to continue revitalization in this key area. A $667,000 Foundation lowinterest loan is expected to generate at least $4 million in private investment toward restoration and renovation of small- and medium-sized buildings.
“As a family we are organizing our resources to support several organ izations and programs - most, but not all of them, are right here in our community. Through the Foundation we can help sustain our region’s educational, cultural and civic opportunities so they are available for our grandchildren and future generations.” Jim & Kathy Pender
These funds are complement ed by a grant to the Downtown Development Partnership to explore adaptation and renova tion of under-utilized downtown buildings. Both efforts supple ment a $250,000 investment in the Cleveland Civic Vision Housing Fund that is expected to attract additional funding for a loan pool of $2.5 million. The Foundation’s total investment of $1.25 million in this $15 million fund is expected to generate well over 1,000 new housing units downtown and in adjacent neighborhoods.
Significant grants were made to increase home owner ship in Cleveland and East Cleveland and to stimulate neighborhood retail develop

Our largest grant was to the East Cleveland Public Library for its capital campaign to reno vate and expand its current facility. The library serves as a hub for educational and com munity building activities and the renovation and expansion will provide more opportunities - as well as greater access to the library and its programs for the people of East Cleveland. We are optimistic that this project will serve as a catalyst for more development in the City of East Cleveland.
We continue to see progress in the area of economic diversi ty and minority business development. We made a grant to the Northern Ohio Minority Business Council (NOMBC) to support their efforts to increase membership in 38 Northeast Ohio counties. Members of NOMBC receive certification and support for developing rela tionships with majority-owned corporations. Ultimately, NOMBC works to increase the purchase of goods and services from minority-owned businesses by majority corporations. In support of this important initia tive, the Foundation partnered with the Greater Cleveland Growth Association, the National Minority Supplier Development Council and the Toledo Area Chamber of Commerce.
Working to Empower Community Organizations (WECO) continues to improve the quality of life for lowincome and working poor people. We supported WECO’s Individual Development Account and “Cleveland Saves” programs, where people learn how to earn, save and invest money. These initiatives help people develop the skills and resources needed to own a home, start a business or further their education. WECO’s Industrial Development and Business Retention program focuses on reinvestment in the area between East 62nd and East 93rd Streets, working to make it a viable neighborhood for new and existing businesses. Organizations in our community are exploring ways to conduct business in environ mentally conscious ways. A grant to the Tellus Institute supported a collaborative study with Cleveland Advanced Manufacturing Program titled “Remanufacturing in Northeast Ohio: Unleashing Environmental and Economic Benefits.” The study explores the process of equipment disassembly, component refurbishing, and reassembly of products to meet original performance
standards. The project is two-tiered, with the first phase centering on research, assessment and feasibility of remanufactur ing, and the second focusing on the implementation of remanufacturing at selected businesses in Northeast Ohio.

he Foundation’s support of education was never more extensive than it was in 2000. By the end of the year, progress on our strategic priorities was well underway. We are supporting work - often in collaboration with other funders - on the fundamentals of education across Greater Cleveland. Funding for K-12 public education and higher education increased 84 percent from nearly $4 million in 1999 to $7.23 million in 2000.

Student learning in the Cleveland Municipal School District (CMSD) is our first concern. Most attention goes to improving district governance and management, teaching and leadership, and ways student learning is measured. Our largest commitment was $2.61 million in two-year grants to several of CMSD’s nonprofit partners: The Cleveland Initiative for Education, the Cleveland Summit on Education, the Institute for Educational Renewal, the Cleveland Education Fund and the Federation for Community Planning. These agencies tackle issues of governance and leadership, academic standards, teaching, and health and human services. Our work with the 11 firstring school districts continued to focus on academic accounta bility relative to state mandates and student diversity. Nine initiatives are underway across these districts. In Shaker Heights, we funded researchbased efforts headed by local and national scholars to narrow

the Black-White achievement gap. We also supported Literacy for All Lakewood Learners, a program that improves student reading for Lakewood elemen tary students. We expanded our support for charter schools (called community schools in Ohio) as a way to reform public education. Startup support was renewed for Old Brooklyn Montessori School, the Intergenerational School and Citizens’ Academy. Imani Institute also received a start up grant.
lovt The Evaluation Center at Western Michigan University began an assessment of the four community schools. One of its goals is to help the faculty become self-evaluators, so the Center led workshops on evalu ation methods. A review panel of local, state and national edu cators and scholars met with the team twice to critique the program design and process. In higher education we concentrate on core needs identified by area colleges and universities. A special focus is co-operative education and internship programs, which are the purview of the Fenn Educational Fund. The Fenn executive board set up new guidelines for grantmaking. Proposals now link co-op education and internships in area colleges to job markets that are priorities for regional economic development.
The Foundation’s L. Dale Dorney Fund granted $4.5 million divided equally among The Weatherhead School of Management at Case Western Reserve University, the Fisher College of Business at The Ohio State University and University of Cincinnati’s College of Business Administration. Money from the Dorney Fund is designated to help Ohio’s largest business schools integrate technology into their programs and learning environments. 7^1

A highlight of 2000 was the first-ever meeting for all educa tion grantee organizations. Over 120 people from more than 60 organizations attended. We outlined our education strate gies and findings over the last two years. Participants gave us feedback on our work, and ideas on how to more effectively serve the community. We will continue to devise ways to exchange ideas with our partners in education.

ver the last 10 years the Foundation provided support for environ足 mental activities through grantmaking in civic affairs. In 1999 our Board recognized the importance of the environment to the quality of life in Greater Cleveland and made it a distinct program area.
E N V I R O N M E N T This year staff developed a strategy that focuses on strengthening the nonprofit response to local environmental issues. Priorities are protecting open spaces, strengthening local education efforts, and sup porting programs that increase the capacity of local environ mental nonprofits. Four grants were made in support of local environmental education, including one to the Cuyahoga Valley Environment Education Center to support an artist-in-residence program, and one to the Cleveland Zoological Society for support of outreach efforts to kindergarteners for the Australian Adventure exhibit at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo. Other education grants focused on topics ranging from learning about the diverse ecologies of different regions to establishing an ecologically friendly Cleveland.
The most significant grant dollars went to protecting open spaces. The Trust for Public Land received two grants -one expands its Ohio office and sup ports an opinion survey on area parks. The second grant will become part of a larger $2 mil lion land protection fund. The fund will allow for swift acquisi tion of environmentally important properties that are under imminent threat of development. We also supported programs that restore and protect water sheds and educate people on their importance to the environ ment. Chagrin River Watershed Partners received a significant grant to support public aware ness efforts. Its belief is that the best way to protect the watershed is to educate the community - particularly public and private decision makers who develop land. Another strategic priority in environment is to work with smaller nonprofits on capacity building. Our region is home to several strong environmental groups, but many have limited staff and resources. By making grants to help strengthen capac ity, organizations will be able to take on larger and more complex projects, and ultimately make a greater impact on sustaining and improving the environment in Northeastern Ohio.
“We wanted my children to be able to make grants from our fund in their own communities in California and Colorado, and Holly and I want to give to organizations we care about in Northeast Ohio. Through our fund at The Cleveland Foundation we can make that happen.” - Clark Harvey Holly Selvaggi and Clark Harvey

Significant support to the Eliza Bryant Center and Benjamin Rose Institute will enhance those organizations’ ability to serve the elderly. This support allowed Eliza Bryant to take over an ailing inner city nursing home, keeping beds and jobs accessible to inner city residents, and expanding service to those on its waiting list.
The Foundation also provided startup support for a joint initiative of the Achievement Centers for Children and Bellefaire Jewish Children’s Bureau. The plan will deliver comprehensive services to pre school and school-aged children with autism spectrum disorder. The Foundation supported projects that address broad health issues through effective partnerships and system-wide planning. A significant grant to Cuyahoga Community College will enable the institution to educate more health care pro fessionals through its state of the art Center for Nursing and Health Careers. The Foundation’s grant to the Federation for Community Planning will help the institu tion conduct a community needs assessment that will pro vide essential data for future health planning, budgeting and delivery efforts.

We also continue to support the AIDS Funding Collaborative, a pooled funding initiative with United Way Services, the George Gund Foundation, Board of Cuyahoga County Commissioners, City of Cleveland, National AIDS Fund, St. Luke’s Foundation of Cleveland, and Mt. Sinai Health Care Foundation. The Collab orative will concentrate on HIV prevention and service integration. Twenty years ago, the Forest City Hospital Foundation Fund was established at The Cleveland Foundation by former trustees of Forest City Hospital to serve the health, education and recre ational needs of residents of the neighborhoods formerly served by the Hospital. To date the fund has awarded more than $1.6 million in grants. This year - in keeping with the original agreement - the advisory committee elected to begin spending down the princi pal of the Fund. In recognition of the Hospital’s history, the advisory committee made its last grant to Meharry Medical College in Nashville, Tennessee for scholarships for medical and dental students from Northeast Ohio. This fall the Foundation held a luncheon recognizing the legacy of Forest City Hospital and honoring the foresight of the Fund’s founders and their sendee to our community.

2000 grantmaking focused on organizations and programs that provide basic needs and safety net services to families who live on the edge of poverty. The City Mission and the West Side Catholic Center received fund ing for support of homeless shelters. A grant was also made toward the opening of 2100 Lakeside -a new shelter for men that offers a three-tiered program that moves them from homelessness to affordable housing. Grants were also made to the Hunger Network and Greater Cleveland Committee on Hunger for the coordination and expansion of their programs. Finding affordable, quality childcare remains a significant barrier to single-parent families who are entering or re-entering the workforce. Currently, the need for low-cost, quality day care exceeds what is available to working parents and their children. Increasing the num ber of quality daycare homes is an important component of the Early Childhood Initiative. We continued our support of Starting Point and its mission of providing information, resources and referrals to people in need
of quality, affordable daycare. The grant helped add 1,000 new daycare homes, thereby offering over 4,000 new spaces for chil dren from low-income families. In 2000, over half of grant dollars went to strengthening the infrastructure and building the capacity of agencies in crisis. Changes at county and state levels have led to the destabi lization of several key social service agencies. We will con tinue to provide grant dollars and staff expertise to help stabilize these organizations. The Center on Urban Poverty and Social Change at the Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences at Case Western Reserve University is involved in many national studies, including the implementation of welfare reform and the evaluation of the Early Childhood Initiative. In an effort to continue to increase the community’s analytic capac ity, particularly around families and children, we gave a grant to the Center to hire a senior researcher to manage evaluation activities.

n addition to supporting projects in our seven program areas, the Foundation develops and participates in interdisciplinary initiatives that involve two or more program areas. This year we continued our work on the Early Childhood Initiative and our Summer Internship Program. We also helped identify and select fellows for the American Marshall Memorial Fund Fellowship Program.

Summer Internship Program Class of2000
The Early Childhood Initiative (EC I) is a $40 million public/ private partnership established in 1999 to improve the condition of children from birth through age three. The Initiative completed its first year in July. The Foundation helped form a philanthropic coalition of 20 foundations and corporate sponsors to serve on ECI’s Partnership Committee, and also provided financial support totaling $4.6 million. During ECI’s first year, 6,616 mothers received home visits by regis tered nurses, 35,371 children ages five and younger were pro vided public health insurance, and 4,692 infants and toddlers were placed in quality homebased daycare.

The Foundation’s Summer Internship Program, which began in 1999, gives college students and recent graduates the chance to work for 10 weeks in Cleveland nonprofit and govern mental agencies. Participating organizations also present weekly seminars for the interns to teach them about the agen cies’ work in our community. The goal of the Internship Program is to develop and nurture an interest in nonprofit and public sector careers among Greater Cleveland’s future workforce. This year, The Cleveland Foundation was one of nine organizations from cities around the country to select American Marshall Memorial Fund Fellows through a nomination process. Six young professionals from
S P E C I A L
Cleveland were awarded fellow ships. The Fellows will travel throughout Europe for briefings on the European Union, NATO and transatlantic issues. This unique program includes one-on-one meetings with rep resentatives from all sectors of European society, site visits, hands-on experiences and formal briefings to provide a variety of perspectives on the key issues affecting Europe and the transatlantic relationship today. After they return to Cleveland, the Fellows will share their experiences by writing articles and making public presentations.

LAKE-GEAUGA FUND stablished in 1987 to address needs in Lake and Geauga counties, the Lake-Geauga Committee responded in 2000 to diverse com munity needs, including protecting open spaces and addressing the health and social service needs of children. A grant to Sustainable Energy for Economic Development helped the organ ization continue its public education campaigns on utility deregulation, the benefits of green energy and the harnessing of wind energy in the City of Painesville. A grant to Chagrin Falls Park Community Center helped the Center provide quality childcare to low-income chil dren. Lake Hospital System received support for its Healthy Heart School Education Program in Painesville and Mentor Elementary Schools. Supporting the arts in Lake and Geauga counties is impor tant so that residents can have access to programs in their own communities. For example, the Committee funded Geauga Lyric Theatre’s renovation of a former movie theater.

“We want to give to our community in ways that are meaningful to us. The Cleveland Foundation manages our fund and makes giving less complicated.” Donald & Yolanda Games
The Lake-Geauga Committee often supports community-wide initiatives. This year we made a significant grant to the capital campaign of the Geauga Center for Health and Wellness. The facility, designed through the joint efforts of the YMCA of Greater Cleveland and Heather Hill Institute, will offer residents opportunities for comprehensive health and wellness services, with an emphasis on holistic health, rehabilitation and recreation.

Anisfield-Wolf Book Award The Anisfield-Wolf Book Award recognizes recent books that have made important con tributions to our understanding of racism or our appreciation of the rich diversity of human cultures. Created in 1935, the Award reflects the passion for issues of social justice that characterized the founder’s family. Two awards are given each spring to books published in the previous year. Generally, one winner is an academic work and the other is fiction, poetry or a memoir. Each winner receives a prize of $10,000 at a ceremony held at the Cleveland Public Library. The Anisfield-Wolf Book Award is the only American book award designated specifi cally to issues of racism and diversity. Past winners have presented extraordinary art and culture of people around the world, explored human rights violations, exposed the effects of racism on children, shared reflection on growing up biracial and illuminated the dignity of people as they strive for justice. A panel of nationally known jurors chooses the winners. The current jury is chaired by Dr. Henry Louis Gates Jr., chair of Afro-American Studies at Harvard University, and includes Rita Dove, Commonwealth Professor of English at the

The total return for the Foundation in 2000 was 4.4 percent. This was during a period in which the S & P 500, as a broad indicator of the equities market, generated a negative 9.09 percent and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index provided positive returns of 11.63 percent. An asset mix of 60 percent equities and 40 percent fixed income during this time would have generated a total return of
negative .8 percent or 520 basis points lower than the combined return of the Foundation. The key to investment performance for the Foundation in 2000 was diversification. The assets of the Foundation are invested in both a value and growth orientation across a broad mix of asset classes as presented in the accompanying graph. Due to this level of diver sification, the Foundation was able to outperform the S & P 500.

As mentioned in prior sec足 tions of this report, the Board authorized $72,821,157* for grants and the administrative budget in the year 2000 - this compared to $83,811,587 in 1999. However, when the 1999 activity is adjusted for a one time principal distribution of $18,038,661 to the Findlay Hancock County Community Foundation, the 2000 authoriza足 tions represent an increase of $7,048,231 over the previous
year. This increase in grant activity was possible due to the spending policy implemented by the Board which is based upon the average market value of the funds over time. Although the market did not perform well in 2000, the performance from prior years - included in the 2000 calculation - provided increased capacity for grantmaking in 2000. The total expenses of the Foundation for the year, exclud足 ing grants, were $13,072,836.
This represents an expense ratio to the assets managed by the Foundation of .82 percent or 82 basis points. Of this total, the administrative expenses of the foundation totaled $7,042,522. As a percentage of the total assets managed by the Foundation, the administrative expense represents .44 percent or 44 basis points, with the remainder comprised primarily of investment management and trustee fees. * This amount does not include $338,500 of grant authorizations for the Treu-mart Fund, which is not included in the Financial Statements of The Cleveland Foundation.

The Goff Society is named after Cleveland Foundation founder Frederick Harris Goff. In 1914 Goff invented the community foundation, developed a working model and pro足 moted the concept across the United States. By the time he died in 1923, more than 50 community trusts had been established. Today there are more than 500 community foundations in this country and the model is emulated throughout the world. Members of the Goff Society have established permanent named funds, donor-advised funds or supporting organizations, or have made cumula足 tive gifts of $10,000 or more. We are grateful to each of them.

APPLYING FO R A GRANT Grant Eligibility We make most of our grants to tax-exempt, private agencies classified as 501(c)(3) organizations, public charities under the law. We also make some grants to governmental agencies, but we do not make grants to indi viduals. We look for creative projects designed to meet community needs, address public policy priorities, or test new ideas. We award grants in seven program areas: arts and culture, civic affairs, economic development, education, the envi ronment, health and social services. In general, the programs we consider for support are in Greater Cleveland or will directly benefit Greater Cleveland residents. Some agencies or interests in other communities may be eligible for grants if donors direct that support in their gifts. We ordinarily do not support endowments, membership drives or fundraising projects, travel when it is the proposal’s primary focus, or publications and videotapes unless they are part of a promising project. Because the Foundation is nonsectarian, we do not support religious organizations for religious purposes. Grant Periods Most grants are one-year awards. Multi-year grants undergo a performance review at the end of each year before we release funds for the following year.
First-Time Grantseekers First, contact the Foundation for a copy of Guidelines for Grantseekers, a booklet with helpful information about preparing a grant proposal. You will also find our guidelines on our website: www.clevelandfoundation.org. We recommend you send a letter including information on your project and whom it will benefit to the vice president for program’s attention. Our staff is eager to help grantseekers prepare good proposals, and may arrange to talk informally before the grant application process begins. Write your full proposal clearly and simply. Include information on your agency’s background, the project you propose, plans for implementation, plans to continue the work after the funding period, evaluation plans and a detailed project budget. Each grant request must include a two-page cover sheet and a completed budget form, available on our web site at www.clevelandfoundation.org, or on disk or hard copy by contacting the Foundation.
The Process The appropriate program staff and the vice president for program thoroughly review your proposal and prepare a written evaluation. A subcommit tee of the Board of Trustees considers the proposal and makes a recommendation to fund, decline or defer it. The full Board then takes final action.
When to Submit a Proposal The Foundation’s Board of Trustees and Distribution Committee approves all grants we award. Because there are multiple decision points in the approval process, grant requests may be submitted whenever they are ready. The review time for proposals varies, depending on the proposal’s completeness and complexity.
At the End of the Grant Period We require a final narrative and fiscal report on all projects we fund. The narrative must include an evaluation of the project’s effectiveness. The fiscal report must cover the entire project period, and your agency’s fiscal officer or treasurer must sign it.

STATEMENT ON DIVERSITY he Cleveland Foundation exists to enhance the quality of life for all citizens of Greater Cleveland. Our ability to achieve this mission and to foster a commitment to excellence can best be pursued if our workforce, grantees, donors, partners and governing body include individuals of diverse back足 grounds, beliefs and perspectives. The Foundation believes that diversity encompasses, but is not limited to, age, gender, race, national origin, religious beliefs, physical abilities and characteristics, sexual orientation, economic circum足 stances and lifestyle. Thus, the Foundation is committed to fostering a supportive work environment which respects and appreciates diversity in its many forms and provides all staff members with an opportunity to maximize the use of their work-related skills and talents. The Foundation seeks to work with external organizations that reflect, as a group, the diversity of the Greater Cleveland community. We look for grantees and business partners that include individuals of varied backgrounds, beliefs and perspectives. We encourage all organ足 izations with which we work to recognize and embrace the benefits of diversity. Finally, in order to achieve the highest standards in all our activities, it is important that the Foundation benefit from the per足 spectives of many different segments of the community. Toward this end, we seek to collaborate with donors of varying means and interests. In addition, we encourage those individuals and organizations who appoint members to our Board of Trustees to seek community leaders who will bring varying points of view to Board deliberations.
