president and chairman’s letter

ast fall, we were moved by the passion and creativity of local citizens who shared ideas for how they will make our community a better place as part of the Purple Martin Project, a community art exercise held at the Richmond Folk Festival. Purple martins, which move together with a common sense of purpose during flight, represent the awe-inspiring power of people coming together for the greater good. Thousands of ideas were collected—creative and comprehensive—confirming our region’s generosity of spirit and inspiring the theme for this annual report. The Community Foundation has helped to launch the ideas of more than 700 donor families, plus a few ideas of our own. Awarding $55 million in grants last year, TCF and its partners helped to elevate the arts, increase academic achievement, lift up families in need and much more. Through the success of The Amazing Raise, we inspired new philanthropy and strengthened hundreds of nonprofits that are an important part of enhancing the quality of life in our region. As a steward of donor intent and community resources, TCF is constantly striving to ensure the long-term value of our work together. Last year, in consultation with community partners and donors, TCF reframed its competitive grantmaking to focus on four areas— Cultural Vibrancy, Economic Prosperity, Educational Success and Health & Wellness—each reflecting strategies most likely to advance the change we hope to see. As interests align, we invite others to partner with us to further amplify the impact of our collective efforts. TCF’s ability to fulfill our community members’ visions for a brighter future is made possible by our dedicated board of volunteer leaders. We thank John Sherman, our immediate past chairman, whose deep personal interest and concern for the region’s future has made him an important ambassador for community philanthropy. We also remember Ranjit Sen, whose legacy is shaped by his enduring contributions to Richmond’s business and charitable sectors. In the pages that follow, we hope you will be inspired by the long-lasting impact of ideas launched into action. Thank you for choosing TCF to be your partner in philanthropy and please let us know when we can help your ideas take flight.

“
We want to give voice to a population that does not always have one, and to make that voice as powerful as possible.
”
— Marlene Paul
Founder of Art 180

arlene Paul found inspiration for her life’s work through a simple, yet powerful idea—to stimulate change through art. In 1998, she launched ART 180 with a friend to provide artrelated programs to young people in challenging circumstances, encouraging them to express themselves through art and to share their stories with others. “We want to give voice to a population that doesn’t always have one, and to make that voice as powerful as possible,” says Marlene. ART 180 uses a model that meets young people where they are, partnering with more than a dozen youth-serving organizations throughout the Richmond area. As noted by former U.S. Poet Laureate, Rita Dove, “For a young person growing up in America’s alienated neighborhoods, there can be no greater empowerment than to dare to speak from the heart—and then to discover that one is not alone in one’s feelings.” Young people learn the power of self-expression as they watch their ideas unfold through a variety of mediums and, at the same time, get to know themselves better. The Community Foundation was there in the beginning to help launch one of ART 180’s early programs at Friends Association for Children and it was there last year as Impact 100 Richmond awarded a $100,000 transformational grant to make ART 180’s latest dream a reality—Atlas, a youth-led art center in Richmond’s downtown arts district. Marlene believes that making and sharing art builds community, which inspired her vision for a permanent space that would serve as a beacon for young people’s creativity. ART 180 engaged the very students whose lives they hope to transform by inviting teens to help define, shape and share the space. Jazmin Harris, a sophomore at Thomas Jefferson High School, wanted a place without judgment where teens could have new, positive experiences. “It’s all that and more,” she exclaims.

hen she moved to Richmond to give her family a chance at a better life, Seconda could not have imagined the circumstances that would cause her to become homeless. Yet three years ago, there she was, sleeping in a rental car with her three children. When a miscommunication delayed the start date of her new job, Seconda had few financial resources and no family to turn to for help. Unable to bridge the gap on her own, she was referred to St. Joseph’s Villa where she became a candidate for rapid re-housing, a national best practice approach that moves individuals and families into permanent housing as quickly as possible. Seconda became part of a regional rapid re-housing pilot program, coordinated by Homeward and supported by The Community Foundation, which led to a 50% decrease in the median length of shelter stay for homeless families from 2009 to 2011. With the support of a housing specialist and funds to cover short-term rental assistance, Seconda and her family moved into their own apartment within a matter of weeks. Rapid re-housing is based on the concept that homelessness is a condition, not an identity. With a total investment of over a half million dollars in continued systems change, our support helps restore housing stability and dignity to people like Seconda who need a helping hand. Today, every shelter in Richmond has someone on staff to provide housing brokerage. In addition, recent data shows that this housing first approach has resulted in fewer children in shelter, fewer families returning to homelessness and significantly less money spent in serving these families. Three years later, Seconda is back on solid ground. She has purchased her own car, her daughters are enrolled in college and the family will move into their own home later this year. “In the process of finding a home, our experience was easier because we were treated with respect. Now we are empowered to live the lives we always envisioned for ourselves.”

tradition of service runs deep in the Sisisky family. For the late U.S. Congressman Norman Sisisky and his sons Mark and Terry, who also made Central Virginia their home, each has given back to their community in their own way and with a strong partner by their side. For three decades, Norman represented Southside Virginia in the Virginia House of Delegates and U.S. House of Representatives, while his wife, Rhoda, became an a ctive volunteer within the Jewish community. Together, they established a fund at The Community Foundation to support local Jewish organizations and nonprofits serving the Tri-Cities region. At age 19, Mark joined his father on a trip to Israel, which would spark a passion in him that would last a lifetime. Since then, he estimates that he has traveled to at least 60 countries. Mark and his wife, Susan, view their community as world-wide and are strong believers that the only way to make true progress in business, politics or humanitarian causes is to foster understanding across cultures. In addition to an existing donor advised fund, they recently established the Mark and Susan Global Enrichment Fund both to honor his parents and to provide opportunities for Collegiate School students to study abroad. Terry became integrated into the community as a well-known broadcaster of local high school, collegiate and professional sports and became affectionately known as the Voice of the VCU Rams. Nearing the end of his battle with cancer, Terry and Sandy Sisisky created a fund to perpetuate Terry’s legacy and encourage youth to learn through participation in sports, communication and broadcasting. Through its first grant to the Cal Ripken Sr. Foundation, youth throughout the region have access to a brand new baseball park and an accompanying fitness trail at the Southside Boys & Girls Club. Mark summarized, “Whatever your idea may be to make the community a better place, The Community Foundation facilitates meaningful discussion and planning to help you do it.”

ryan and Kathryn Harvey were known as kind and generous people who shared a love of art and music. Following the tragic death of their family in 2006, the community chose to honor their legacy by establishing an e ndowment to provide music, visual art and performing arts enrichment in the Richmond area. Since that time, the fund has supported several musical gardens at elementary schools and other p ublic spaces, in which durable sound and rhythm equipment is designed primarily by local a rtists and installed in playground-type settings. The most recent musical garden located at Fox Elementary School, where their oldest daughter Stella attended, opened in 2012.

awareness
A
recent Kaiser Family Foundation study reports that children in the U.S. spend less than one hour a week engaged in outdoor activities. In 2012, TCF awarded a community grant to combat this “nature-deficit disorder” through support of the James River Association and its new Ecology School at the Presquile National Wildlife Refuge. Located 20 miles south of Richmond, the school represents the first residential-style ecology school of its kind accessible to students living in the James River watershed. Celebrating its grand opening this spring, the school offers an ideal setting that removes students from the diversions of an electronic world and immerses them in a pristine natural world that few have ever experienced. By expanding its programs to include extended overnight and weekend trips, it is expected that the Ecology School will serve approximately 1,300 students annually.

lifting I spirits
nspiration can come from anywhere. For one anonymous donor, it was a newspaper article that shared the story of Robbie Norris, a yoga instructor who volunteers his time to teach men in the Richmond City jail. “Yoga revolutionizes the lives of those who adopt it as a daily discipline, and it is rewarding to offer that possibility to a person who is so off-track they’ve landed in jail,” he says. Inspired to help, the donor worked with TCF staff to award a grant to a nonprofit that adopted his program as part of its yoga outreach efforts. With this support, Robbie has added several classes each month and has begun teaching women and juvenile inmates. As one participant wrote, “This has really lifted my spirits. I used to wander aimlessly through my mind, but now I am finding purpose.”

olonial Heights resident Emma Warrener White Perry believed that education is the key to helping young people realize their full potential. She implemented her vision by leaving a portion of her estate to support deserving students from Southside Virginia in their pursuit of a college education. The Perry White Scholarship was one of two endowments that helped launch TCF’s scholarship program in 1990. The program has since grown to include 57 opportunities for graduating seniors and adult learners in the Central Virginia region. In the past 10 years alone, TCF has awarded over 1,000 scholarships totaling $2 million dollars.

”
he year 2012 was characterized by continued growth in assets, fund relationships and grantmaking. We maintained our focus on operating efficiency, while pursuing excellence in donor and grantee relationships through the effective use of staff and technology resources. Even as we are pleased to report these financial results, we are gratified by the broadening and deepening of each and every fund donor relationship. Providing effective longterm stewardship of our donors’ intent and achieving strong financial results are joined at the hip. The Foundation’s assets grew to $807 million, while grantmaking increased by $7 million to $55 million. Gifts received returned to a more normal level of $32 million, following the inclusion of the Pauley Family Foundation as a supporting organization in 2011. Thanks to effective investment management by the University of Richmond’s Spider Management, our investments contributed a gain of 11.7%. Core operating expenses continue to grow as the Foundation’s donor base and community leadership activities grow, and we added one new full-time equivalent staff position in 2012. However, due to careful planning and execution, our efficiency ratio (Core Operating Expenses As a % of Total Grants) improved from 5.03% to 4.61%. Our Board and Management Team are intentional about making appropriate investments in staff and internal capacity as our donor base and grant activity expand. total AS S ETS (in millions of dollars) $807 $749
