education.

Corporate Volunteer Council Brings Together Businesses 

to Grow Employee Volunteerism 

by Daniel J. McQuaid, President and CEO, OneOC 

E 

ngaging employees in volunteerism is not only a way for companies to “do good” in 

the community, but to also positively impact their business. Bea Boccalandro, a 

OneOC-affiliated consultant, explains, “If your business is perceived as doing 

societal good, it’s more likely employees will work hard, customers will tell others 

about your products and neighbors will welcome your presence.” With the surge of interest 

in community engagement, more companies are seeking ways to effectively address 

community needs through their employee volunteer programs and charitable giving. The 

Corporate Volunteer Council of Orange County is a network of businesses that 

collaborates to promote and grow employee volunteerism. In the last three years, CVCOC 

membership has grown by 28 percent to include 36 of Orange County’s most communityminded 

companies. 

Launched in January 2012, its founding members have heard from 

guest speakers and shared resources in order to achieve their goals 

of promoting leading employee volunteering practices, networking 

with other professionals, and inspiring other companies to engage 

their employees. Orange County companies are in various stages of 

developing their employee volunteer programs. For example, Fluor 

has a history of employee volunteerism dating back to 1976, while 

other companies are on the cusp of formalizing an employee 

volunteer team. 

“The opportunity to be able to network with other Orange County 

Daniel J. McQuaid companies to share best practices is invaluable,” said Diane Killeen, 

Disneyland Resort’s Corporate Citizenship Manager and CVCOC 

Committee Chair. “The resources we all bring to the table result in incredible knowledge 

towards our goal to address Orange County issues of need collectively with our energetic 

volunteers.” 

In June 2013, Points of Light, the largest national volunteer organization, recognized 

CVCOC’s outstanding achievements with their Fast Start Award at the National 

Conference on Volunteering and Community Service in Washington DC. 

Demonstrating the collective power of employee volunteerism, CVCOC companies 

annually convene to plan, execute and participate in a large-scale Corporate Combined 

Volunteer Project. At their inaugural project in 2013, CVCOC member companies brought 

together 500 employee volunteers who worked alongside Oak View Renewal Project and 

residents to improve a one-square-mile, low-income neighborhood in Huntington Beach. 

Last year, CVCOC member employees packed nearly 6,000 food boxes at the Second 

Harvest Food Bank to distribute to local nonprofits fighting to end hunger in Orange 

County. The 2015 Corporate Combined Volunteer Project will be in partnership with 

CVCOC members at their first corporate combined volunteer project in 2013 at Oak View, a 

one-square mile, low-income neighborhood in Huntington. 

KaBOOM!, a national nonprofit dedicated to improving the lives of children through play. 

CVCOC members will build new and refurbish existing playgrounds to create healthy and 

safe play spaces for Anaheim neighborhoods. The playground project is funded by The 

Walt Disney Company and celebrates The Disneyland Resort’s 60th anniversary, and will 

be the largest KaBOOM! playground build in the United States. 

For more data and statistics about the impact of the CVCOC member companies on the 

Orange County community, please refer to the graph on the next page (Pg. A-7).

Engaging the Board 

for Better Fundraising 

Results 

by Robert J. Schlener CPA, CGMA 

SingerLewak LLP 

Orange County’s Leading Businesses 

Made a Major Impact on Charitable Giving 

and Employee Volunteering in 2014 

M 

uch has been written about the role a 

board of directors plays in the success of a 

nonprofit. Certainly everyone can agree 

that governance is one of those key roles. 

But when it comes to fundraising, the answer is not 

as clear… 

I often hear from management that their particular 

board isn’t involved enough in fundraising. In some 

instances, board members specifically ask not to be 

involved at all. They cite their time commitment as 

their contribution. We all know 

that time doesn’t pay the bills. 

Not having the board support 

fundraising from concept to 

execution is a sure way to 

guarantee failure. 

Whether you are 

considering joining a nonprofit 

board, are currently on a 

board or part of the 

Robert J. Schlener management at a nonprofit, 

here are a few thoughts to 

consider when the topic of boards and fundraising 

reaches your desk. 

Where’s the Commitment? 

Solicit honest feedback (through a questionnaire, 

anonymous online survey, etc.) from all board 

members and analyze the results. This becomes a 

baseline. With this information, craft fundraising 

strategies that align with the board’s current 

willingness to participate. Raise the bar next time. 

Don’t Keep Secrets 

How committed to the mission of the organization 

are the board members? Does the organization ask 

each member to make a personal, annual gift, along 

with an annual commitment of outside contributions 

(“give or get”)? Clear communication of 

expectations will help ensure better success. 

Choose board members for their wisdom, 

experience and passion, but don’t forget about their 

connections! Board members have access to a 

treasure trove of potential individual and corporate 

donors, so involve the board in developing and 

implementing every major fundraising project. 

Successful fundraising campaigns start with 

planning exercises that include all board members. 

Finally, make sure the board is involved in 

identifying, refreshing and engaging your target list 

of supporters throughout the year. Real time 

success stories sell. 

Scorecards not Postcards 

“That’s why they’re called scorecards and not 

postcards.” I say that at least once per round of golf 

when referring to a bad shot that leads to a great 

score. The same holds true for evaluating board 

members’ efforts towards fundraising commitments 

and other measurable goals. A board should 

complete an accountability scorecard annually. Use 

the scorecard to plan for next year. 

Mind Your Manners 

Make sure board members reach out to donors 

personally, thanking them for their continued 

support. Donors want to know how their contribution 

directly helped the organization, so being specific 

and genuine helps with future asks.

Charge of Nonprofit Services in the Irvine office of 

SingerLewak LLP. If you would like more information

Faces of Philanthropy 


What inspires you to give? 

Nancy and I feel incredibly blessed by life and our many good fortunes and, as a result, feel an obligation to give back and support the 

communities where we live and work. It is truly inspiring to be able to help those less fortunate to get an education, improve their health care 

and enable them to live more productive lives, and in turn, help to improve the quality of life in their communities. 

Geoffrey L. & Nancy Stack 

Founders 

Cystinosis Research Foundation 

Summarize a personal experience you’ve had working with a nonprofit organization that has had the greatest impact on you. 

We have been involved in a number of organizations dealing with health care and education. Our interest in health care became personal in 

1991 when our daughter, Natalie, was born and diagnosed with cystinosis, a rare, metabolic disease that slowly destroys every organ in the 

body, including the kidneys, eyes, liver, muscle and brain. In 2003, we founded the Cystinosis Research Foundation to find better treatments 

and a cure for cystinosis. We have funded extensive medical research and today, CRF is the largest fund provider of cystinosis research in the 

world. As a result of CRF-funded research, the FDA approved a time-release medication that has vastly improved the lives of cystinosis 

patients and their families. CRF-funded research has led to other applications in other diseases and disorders such as Huntington’s disease 

and Fatty Liver Disease (“NASH”). It is truly gratifying to see the improvement in health care for a variety of diseases as a result of the medical 

research supported by the Cystinosis Research Foundation. 

The CRF has created a dynamic cycle of research leading to new discoveries about cystinosis and new treatments for the disease with 

specific areas of focus on stem cells and gene therapy and novel treatments using nanotechnology. As a result, we are now well on our way to 

finding a cure. 

What inspires your business to give? 

Giving and being active in the community is part of the culture of Wells Fargo. Our Vision & Values booklet says, “We are only as strong as 

the communities we serve.” This statement is a guide for how we act, not just at the foundation, but across our footprint. In addition to grants 

and donations, we encourage team members to be involved in the community. Each year, we have a Community Support Campaign where we 

encourage our team members to donate and make volunteering commitments. Last year, we raised $1.6 million to support various nonprofit 

organizations. In addition, the company matches donations of up to $5,000 for qualifying educational organizations. We encourage leaders to 

volunteer their time on nonprofit boards. Currently, we have over 100 volunteering in that capacity, and the company allows for 16 hours of paid 

leave yearly to volunteer in organizations of their choosing. In all that we do, we are inspired to give and share. 

Jack Toan 

Southern California 

Foundation Director 

Wells Fargo 

Summarize an experience your business has had working with a nonprofit organization that has had the greatest impact on 

your team as a whole. 

The culture at Wells Fargo is one where each team member is empowered to choose their philanthropic causes. It works, as we completed 

15,000 volunteer hours in Orange County last year. One nonprofit we have supported with time and treasure is Oak View Renewal Partnership. 

This nonprofit has wrapped itself around a one-square-mile impoverished neighborhood in Huntington Beach and brings in partners to help this 

distressed community. 

Wells Fargo is one of its partners, and in addition to providing the seed money, ongoing annual support and workforce development grants, 

we currently have a team member on the executive board. Through our company’s Volunteer Leave Program, she was granted a four-month 

leave to help the nonprofit start a small business incubator. As she is working on that, we were able to have business bankers help transform a 

local family’s kitchen-based, mom-and-pop catering passion into a brand new food truck business. Our culture supports and encourages 

volunteerism and when we can see the depth of commitment from across our lines of business to help a small business grow and families 

thrive, we know that we are making an impact in our local community.




What inspires you to give? 

Young people – or more accurately, the future of young people – have always inspired us to give. Fortunately, we have had the opportunity to 

work with young people throughout our lives: in Janet’s case, teaching for 38 years at the college level; and in my case, mentoring young 

people and watching them turn their lives around. 

Summarize a personal experience you’ve had working with a nonprofit organization that has had the greatest impact on you. 

Several years ago, we had the opportunity to support an art exhibition at a local museum. After the opening, we spent time talking with 

people who were looking at the paintings. It gave us great enjoyment to see the smiles and hear about their personal experiences while 

viewing the show. This planted the seed in our hearts of creating an art museum, in which to share our art collection. We are most fortunate to 

have the opportunity to create such a museum on the Chapman University campus, which will be open to the public later this year. 

Mark & Jan Hilbert

The Hilbert Museum of California Art 


It is important for Pacific Life to be involved in the communities in which our employees live and work. Our involvement is through 

philanthropic support and volunteerism. The investment and efforts help make those communities stronger, more united, and it enriches the 

lives of our employees and their family members who get personally involved. 

Jim Morris 

Chairman & CEO 

Pacific Life 



In late 2007, Illumination Foundation was founded to help address the needs of Orange County’s homeless population, with an objective of 

providing a comprehensive program that would house and support homeless families with children in motels in Orange County. The Pacific 

Life Foundation was an early funder of this grassroots organization, and to date, has contributed over $1.2 million towards programs benefiting 

Illumination Foundation’s mission. What has been inspiring to see is the growth and flexibility of this nonprofit as they have reached out to 

serve those most in need. 

Last September, Pacific Life worked closely with the Illumination Foundation to build a playground, wooden benches and picnic tables at the 

organization’s new center in Santa Ana. Local children helped design the playground and over 250 volunteers, half of whom were Pacific Life 

employees and family members, came together on a Saturday to build everything in six hours. 

The build day was inspirational in a variety ways. The site is surrounded by densely populated multi-story apartment buildings and 

throughout the day, we could see young children peering out of their windows and doors at the construction going on below. You could see the 

excitement in their faces as the equipment was assembled and installed. By the end of the day, the families knew they now had a safe place to 

play and to also receive supportive services from the Illumination Foundation’s staff on-site. 

This experience was a true accomplishment as our employees and community members worked alongside each other to better the 

community.





At The Walt Disney Company, we strive to create lasting, positive change in the communities in which we live, work and play. Our inspiration 

comes from working as Disney VoluntEARS, fulfilling wishes through the Make-A-Wish Foundation and investing in programs such as ACT 

Anaheim. We are committed to contributing to a brighter future for Orange County, and it is our goal to help create a community with 

responsible, successful youth and a strong business environment. 

Michael Colglazier 

President 

Disneyland Resort 



In 2013, the Disneyland Resort partnered with the Anaheim Ducks, Angels Baseball and the Orange County Community Foundation to form 

Accelerate Change Together (ACT) Anaheim, a program that encourages nonprofit organizations to collaborate in order to address critical 

gaps in services affecting the underserved youth in Anaheim. Through ACT Anaheim, funders and nonprofits work together to engage youth 

and parents in programs that strengthen families and communities. 

Last year, ACT Anaheim awarded $1.5 million in grants to 10 outstanding Orange County nonprofits. These organizations have established 

meaningful goals that aim to ensure our youth are college and career ready, have positive values and character, healthy lifestyles, and positive 

relationships with parents and other adults. 

As we enter the second year of ACT Anaheim, others throughout the community are embracing this effort in amazing ways. Cast members 

at the Disneyland Resort have also been inspired by the program, using employee-giving programs to contribute as well. This program has 

become a major focus for all of us at the Disneyland Resort, and we look forward to seeing it grow in the years to come. 

What first inspired you to volunteer? 

In the 1960s, a friend of mine was volunteering at Hoag and raved about it, so I decided to volunteer myself. I fell in love with the hospital 

and the people from the moment I started, and it has been my privilege to serve as a volunteer at Hoag for more than 40 years. 

I deliver a cart with books and magazines throughout the hospital and it is a joy to visit patients and visitors. Interacting with patients is the 

real reward of volunteering for me. Many are pleased to be able to talk to someone, and to share time and interests. They tell me how much 

they appreciate the care they are receiving from the medical staff and volunteers. An added reward is listening to the concerns of visitors. 

Through the years, I have heard patients say, “You have made my day,” just by stopping to visit and finding the right reading material for them. 

Ruth Poole 

40+ Year Volunteer 

Hoag Hospital 

What have been the greatest rewards you’ve experienced from your volunteer activities? 

I have witnessed the high-quality of care and dedication from the medical staff and all the personnel at Hoag. Volunteers are considered part 

of a team that functions to make Hoag a special place. Our volunteers are well-trained and ready to help all who enter the hospital. 

One of the joys has been the opportunity to serve for several years on the committee to select Junior Auxiliary scholarship recipients. Each 

year, members from the executive board of the Auxiliary read submissions from our outstanding Juniors who are applying for scholarships. 

Those selected receive various amounts that will help them with college expenses and are honored at special awards luncheons. 

During my 40-plus years, I have served on Auxiliary Boards as Vice President of Programs, Corresponding Secretary, and as President for 

four years. In addition to volunteering, I participate in Hoag support groups such as The 552 Club, Circle 1000 and the Heritage Society. My 

commitment to Hoag includes a Trust Estate donation to Hoag. It is a wonderful place. 


Zumasys was hit by the economic downturn in 2009. But while other companies were cutting back on employee benefits, we decided to 

double down. The recession motivated us to find new ways to invest in the happiness of our employees. We realized that the most meaningful 

way to invest in the well-being of our employees was to give them a purpose to work for. 

Our charitable giving program, Happyness is a Choice, is the embodiment of that goal. Through Happyness is a Choice, we donate 1 

percent of revenue each year to nonprofit organizations nominated and selected by our employees. The program helps our employees make 

positive changes in their communities through their hard work and effort. 

Paul Giobbi 

President 

Zumasys 



In July 2014, Zumasys volunteered at MDA Camp, an incredible event for kids with muscular dystrophy. MDA Camp offers a variety of activities 

for kids afflicted with MD, such as horseback riding, swimming, adaptive sports, arts and crafts, camp dances and more. 

We participated this year by sponsoring a day of arts and crafts. We donated craft supplies, and around 50 employees joined together to work 

one-on-one with the children. The theme of this year’s camp was superheroes, so we spent the day helping kids make their own superhero capes. 

Before this, we had volunteered as a team with other nonprofits, but none put us in direct contact with the people we were helping. At first, not 

all of our employees were comfortable with the idea of such close personal interaction. But that trepidation disappeared after meeting the amazing 

children at the camp. One of our tougher employees was moved to tears after spending the day with a small girl whose illness confined her to a 

wheelchair. With so many of us there, I can only say that it was transformational for our entire company. It has sparked a level of enthusiasm for 

giving that has been contagious. 


Edwards Lifesciences is focused on helping patients and our communities, so giving is something that we take very personally. More than 

five decades ago, the company was founded based on the vision of giving heart valve patients hope for longer and better lives. This passion 

for helping people has continued and has led to many medical innovations whose success now fuels our philanthropy and our ability to 

improve the lives of some of the world’s most underserved people. 

From Irvine to Beijing, our giving culture thrives among our 9,000+ employees. Philanthropy and employee volunteerism are not viewed as 

boxes to be checked on a corporate checklist; rather, they are an integral cultural element of a company that thrives on giving back. We have 

an aspiration that 100 percent of our employees will participate in at least one charitable activity each year, and I’m thrilled that more than 70 

percent of our employees globally, and nearly 90 percent in Orange County, got involved in 2013 — although I must say, we are a competitive 

group and we would like to see this number climb higher. 

Michael A. Mussallem 

Chairman & CEO 

Edwards Lifesciences 



Last year, we launched a new charitable initiative that we are really excited about, which is called Every Heartbeat Matters. Through this, we 

will invest in key philanthropic partners to help reach our goal that, by 2020, our philanthropy will impact the global burden of heart valve 

disease by supporting the education, screening and treatment of one million underserved people. Included among our partners are local 

organizations such as American Heart Association, CHOC Children’s Foundation and Hoag Hospital Foundation. We think it’s a bold goal…set 

for one very important reason…every heartbeat matters. 

We plan to commit more than half of our charitable giving to this work, while also continuing our strong investments in community – and other 

health-focused nonprofit programs. We are energized by the promise of this new initiative, and are excited to hear and share the stories of lives 

touched by the nonprofit organizations that we support. That is what it’s all about!





Rutan & Tucker believes that improving the lives of others in our community is just the right thing to do. Given our exceptional talent and 

resources, Rutan is proud to set the standard for community involvement and charitable giving. Last year, we were honored by the Association 

of Fundraising Professionals as the recipient of the “Outstanding Medium Corporation or Business Award” for our community involvement and 

contributions. We strive to demonstrate an outstanding commitment to philanthropy through financial support, leadership involvement and 

volunteer participation. Rutan has worked hard to establish itself as a role model for other businesses in our community. We also are very wellknown 

as a leader in providing pro bono legal services to many individuals and businesses in our local community such as Laura’s House, the 

Alzheimer’s Association of Orange County and the Public Law Center. 

Steve Nichols 

Managing Partner 

Rutan & Tucker 



Rutan partners with so many nonprofit organizations, it is difficult to pick just one. One of our partners, Roger Friedman, is on the board of 

directors of We Give Thanks. That organization’s mission is to enhance the well-being of the less fortunate in Southern California through various 

service activities, including preparing and serving more than 15,000 free Thanksgiving meals and awarding college scholarships to graduating 

high school seniors each year. Rutan assists in carrying out this mission through financial support, and volunteers from Rutan help prepare and 

serve Thanksgiving meals. In addition, volunteers from Rutan join forces to participate in Share Our Selves Annual Adopt A Family program. This 

tradition assists many struggling families in Orange County by providing gifts and food for the holidays. Rutan attorneys, staff and family members 

gather annually to help sort, load and deliver items to schools where they are then given to the families in need. Rutan has been involved with 

this organization for years and enjoys giving back to local families and the local community. 


Our inspiration comes from Fluidmaster’s founder, Adolph Schoepe, who in his founding goals in 1960 stated, “be a good citizen in the 

community.” Our employees continue to heed Schoepe’s advice, knowing what a blessing it is to work in this community, and what a greater 

blessing it is to give back to enrich its future. In turn, it has been proven that the work our team does to unite our communities in fact unites our 

team to achieve bottom line business results beyond even my expectations, which inspires me! 

Todd Talbot 

President 

Fluidmaster 



Like so many involved in giving, we have each experienced the joy of seeing the smiles and feeling the appreciation of our efforts. Our hope 

is that more people in Orange County can experience this joy in giving. We started this quest within our own business by focusing our efforts 

with a limited, yet diverse group, of nonprofits to allow every employee to get involved in something that is meaningful to them. Through our 

partnerships with Boy Scouts, Habitat for Humanity, American Cancer Society, Boys & Girls Club of Capistrano Valley and OneOC, our 

employees engagement as volunteers and/or by giving has provided each with a sense of purpose beyond what our business can provide. Our 

connection with the community has increased morale and strengthened our reputation as a great place to work. It has also allowed us to 

introduce the benefits of charitable giving to other companies and has now brought more people/companies to the ranks of volunteers and 

givers, which has an impact on our team and Orange County.

impact their time and talent make. Mentor Days allow flexibility in scheduling and provide an afternoon 

(typically 2-3 hours) of meaningful interaction for corporate partners with anywhere from 10-160 

employees. We also have more in-depth volunteer opportunities for those looking for a longer term 

commitment. 


Just like the kids we serve, we have programs that meet everyone’s needs. We like to begin all our 

opportunities with a tour of the Club. Book yours today! Some areas of giving include:

year’s event raised $2.3 million for cystinosis research, and was rated the #1 Charity Fundraising Gala 

by the OCBJ. 

Fore a Cure Golf Tournament 

Monday, October 19, 2015 – Pelican Hill Golf Club 

In 2014, the event raised $362,000 for cystinosis research. 


One of our greatest assets is our dedicated team of volunteers who are committed to helping make 

Natalie’s Wish become a reality. Our volunteers have been with us since the beginning of our 

fundraising efforts and we couldn’t do it without them. 


Thanks to the generous support of our friends and the entire community, CRF is the largest fund 

provider of cystinosis research in the world. 100 percent of all donations go directly to cystinosis 

research.

u CRF will continue to fund research in an effort to develop a novel treatment for corneal cystinosis 

with the goal of translating bench research discoveries into a human clinical trial within the next year. 

u CRF will remain focused on its mission to find a cure for cystinosis by continuing to fund stem cell 

and gene therapy research that we believe holds the potential for a cure. Our goal in 2015 is to ensure 

that an IND (Investigational New Drug) application is filed with the FDA. The autologous stem cell 

treatment would use the patient’s own stem cells which would be harvested, genetically modified and 

then reintroduced into the patient.

To provide the transforming gift of mobility to the 

physically disabled poor in developing countries as 

motivated by Jesus Christ. 

SERVICE AREA 

Worldwide. So far, we have served 91 different 

countries around the world. The need for wheelchairs 

in the developing world is staggering. In nations where 

poverty pervades, an estimated 100 million people are 

in desperate need of a wheelchair, yet lack the 

resources to obtain one. Already suffering from the 

pain, isolation and indignity of a physical disability, 

they endure further burdens – many forced to live on 

the ground waiting to be carried to meet their most 

basic needs.

Free Wheelchair Mission 

Miracle of Mobility is Free Wheelchair Mission’s annual gala with 2015 being its 12th year. This event 

will be held on Thursday, July 23, 2015 and is the single largest fundraiser for the organization, raising 

over $1 million annually. This year, as a special treat, we welcome special guest speaker, Nick Vujicic, 

sharing his inspirational story of hope. The format of the evening features a reception with our popular 

silent auction, international food and drink stations, a program featuring FWM Founder Don 

Schoendorfer and a live “mobility auction.” More event information can be found at 

www.freewheelchairmission.org/mom. 


Our mission relies on dedicated volunteers around the globe, with positions ranging from 

administrative support at our Irvine HQ, field wheelchair builders, distribution partners, special event 

volunteers and volunteer fundraisers across the nation. Our greatest special event volunteer needs are 

in February at our annual Run for Mobility and in July at our annual Miracle of Mobility gala.

2014? 

Girl Scouts provided leadership development programs 

to nearly 22,000 girls from every zip code through a 

network of more than 14,000 volunteers and adult 

members in Orange County in 2014. 

Fourth Annual Celebrate Leadership Gala 

October 30, 2015 – The Island Hotel 

The Celebrate Leadership Gala honors Girl Scout alumnae from the local business and philanthropic 

community. Each honoree is paired with an outstanding Girl Scout selected for her accomplishments 

and leadership skills. Learn more at GirlScoutsOC.org. 


Whether you have an hour, a day, a weekend or more, there’s an opportunity for you to make a 

difference in girls’ lives. Parents often get involved in Girl Scouting with their daughters, but Girl Scout 

volunteers come from all walks of life and backgrounds – college students, busy professionals and 

young-at-heart retirees. Volunteers perform many key functions like creating events, taking photos, 

managing cookie sales, sharing career experiences or helping girls learn outdoor skills…just to name a 

few. Whatever your schedule and interests, there’s a way you can help make a difference in girls’ lives. 

Learn more and apply online at GirlScoutsOC.org today! 


With your help, Girl Scouts of Orange County is providing a safe environment for nearly 22,000 girls to 

develop their talents and leadership skills and grow up to be strong, healthy and happy women. And 

Girl Scouts works! A recent study showed that women who were Girl Scouts when they were young 

have higher perceptions of self, higher rates of volunteerism and civic engagement, higher rates of 

college education and higher household incomes that non-alumnae. 

As a 501(c)(3), Girl Scouts is totally dependent on private funding for its programs. Every dollar you 

contribute is a direct investment in our community’s girls and helps provide programs that address 

youth leadership development, educational opportunities and financial aid for low-income, high-risk 

girls, volunteer support and training, and camping opportunities at Camp Scherman. Learn more about 

the many ways to support Girl Scouts by visiting GirlScoutsOC.org.

2014? 

MBKU and their partners ensured that Orange 

County’s children were vision ready for school by 

providing an estimated 15,500 vision screenings, 900 

comprehensive eye examinations and 600 

prescriptions for glasses. 


MBKU is currently undergoing a comprehensive campaign, ACHIEVING 20|20: Reimagining 

Health Care Education, to meet future needs of our students as well as a diverse, aging and 

growing population. The campaign will add new programs and facilities to make MBKU’s 

transformative vision over the next decade possible. Our critical needs include support for 

community health and children’s vision initiatives; graduate-level scholarships, fellowships and 

travel grants; interprofessional education initiatives; and health care expansion efforts. 

Most recently, Marshall B. Ketchum University has embarked on expansion plans, purchasing a 

building in Anaheim. It will be the new home of the University Eye Center, which is currently housed 

at MBKU’s main campus in Fullerton. In addition, the new space will allow for expansion of 

additional primary health care services as well as a pharmacy. 

“The changing environment of health care demands that practitioners be trained to work in a 

multidisciplinary health care system. MBKU’s new School of Physician Assistant Studies and 

planned College of Pharmacy joins the 111-year-old Southern California College of Optometry in a 

new era of medical education in our community,” said Marshall B. Ketchum University President 

Kevin Alexander, O.D., Ph.D. “At MBKU, we’re marking the beginning of a unique interprofessional 

health center in our neighboring city of Anaheim that will ensure our professional students have a 

world-class education and training in a team approach to patient care.” 

Your partnership in supporting MBKU’s investment in health care education has enormously 

rewarding returns. MBKU’s exciting expansion plans will serve regional health care needs for many 

years to come. Join us in our effort to reimagine health care education.

What was your greatest community impact in 2014? 

OCCF celebrated its 25th anniversary and awarded $47 million in grants and scholarships in 2014. 

Through its ACT Anaheim partnership with Disneyland Resort, Angels Baseball and Anaheim Ducks, 

OCCF awarded $1.5 million in inaugural grants to ten nonprofits working to meet the academic, social 

and economic challenges of vulnerable youth in Anaheim. Plans for ACT II are underway with the next 

round of grants scheduled for June 2015. 


Along with our generous donors, the Orange County Community Foundation supports a wide range of 

causes in Orange County – from the education of our youth to feeding the hungry and supporting local 

arts. In celebration of our 25th anniversary, OCCF is super-charging local giving by launching iheartoc – 

Orange County’s first-ever Giving Day April 21-22, 2015. GIVE WHERE YOUR HEART LIVES at

Orange County Veterans Initiative: In February 2015, OCCF released groundbreaking data from the

servicemen and women coming home to Orange County are underprepared for civilian life; they face 

significant challenges with mental and physical health, securing adequate employment and finding 

stable housing. OCCF plans to lead a coordinated, county-wide response in partnership with local 

donors and business and community leaders. To get involved, visit oc-cf.org/veterans.

Orange County United Way 


Orange County United Way’s ten-year, community-wide action plan, known as FACE 2024, is an 

acronym for Fund, Advocate, Collaborate and Educate. The funds raised are focused on the building 

blocks of a good life – Education, Income, Health and Housing – to change the lives of those who need 

help most. Not only are we investing the funding necessary to achieve these objectives, we are 

mobilizing our board members, volunteers, staff and the community at large, to effectively advocate on 

behalf of local residents struggling with significant hurdles.

To improve lives by mobilizing the caring power of 

Orange County to strengthen our community. 

SERVICE AREA 


United Way maximizes the impact of every dollar contributed by performing comprehensive research 

into critical community needs while reporting measurable return on investments. By supporting a 

network of strategic partner organizations that meet 26 standards of accountability and are aligned with 

our goals, we help meet the complex needs of individuals and families – but we provide benefits 

beyond the dollars. United Way provides capacity-building training and leadership to support critical 

community concerns, so our community partners can focus on helping more people. 


Volunteer engagement is a foundational strategy at United Way. It provides an experiential opportunity for 

donors, corporate teams and other supporters, enabling us to move the needle on community priorities, 

through individual efforts, team-building projects or skill-based volunteerism. Giving back by getting 

involved in community issues enables people to make Orange County a better place while impacting an 

area of passion. In most cases, the biggest benefit is deeper engagement in the community where our 

volunteers work and live. Volunteers can go home knowing they have done something important for their 

community and their neighbors in need. 

United Way’s volunteer engagement site, getconnected.unitedwayoc.org, provides a myriad of 

opportunities throughout the year for companies, families and individuals to make a direct difference in 

reaching our community-wide goals. Volunteer projects have included Read Aloud 15 Minutes, a 

community garden at a local junior high school, the assembly of welcome home kits for families entering 

permanent housing, Volunteer Income Tax Assistance, book and food drives or creating a reading room 

for young children – these are just a few of the opportunities presented by United Way in the past year. 

FAST FACTS 



Our overhead rate of 17 percent supports operating 

and fundraising expenses, as well as training, 

compliance, infrastructure, staffing and systems

2014? 

We tackle some of our community’s most complex 

issues including poverty, hunger, the dropout rate and

United Way is your strategic partner for aligning corporate philanthropy with business and community 

goals. 

u Workplace campaigns are one of the simplest ways for businesses to meet philanthropic and 

corporate goals. 

u United Way’s Tocqueville Society includes donors who contribute $10,000 or more annually. Within 

the Tocqueville Society there are several affinity groups including: Bench & Bar – attorneys and 

judges; Emerging Tocqueville Leaders – the next generation of philanthropists in our community who 

commit to growing their annual gifts by age 40; Real Estate Community Builders; and the Women’s 

Philanthropy Fund. 

u United Way’s Leaders’ Society is comprised of donors who contribute $1,000-$9,999 annually. 

Emerging female philanthropists in this donor circle are celebrated as Women Looking Forward.

2014? 

Project Hope Alliance ended homelessness for 151 

children right here in Orange County and enrolled 231 

children in their education program, ensuring that each 

child can end the cycle of homelessness through 

education. 


Project Hope Alliance 

u On May 1, we will come together to dance under the stars while ending homelessness for children in 

our own backyard. Last year’s sold-out even gathered 250 guests and raised more than $80,000 in live 

and silent auctions. The 2015 event will be held at the Boathouse Collective and will feature a live 

performance by the Tijuana Dogs. 

u Last year’s fall Anti-Gala at A Restaurant in Newport Beach garnered incredible buzz from both local 

press and the more than 120 Orange County entrepreneurs and philanthropists in attendance. The 

sold-out event raised more than $20,000 and set a fresh new tone for nonprofit fundraisers. This year’s 

event promises to be just as spectacular. 

u For ticket sales and corporate sponsorships, please visit www.ProjectHopeAlliance.org/events. 


Tutoring, food pantry support and other volunteer opportunities available! Visit 

www.ProjectHopeAlliance.org/volunteer to learn more. 


Since March 2012, our community has successfully ended homelessness for more than 300 children 

and their families! 

It costs less than $1,500 to end homelessness for a child. This investment provides working-poor 

families with the finances, case management and advocacy to move into their own homes and achieve 

financial independence. In fact, a year after exiting the program, more than 83 percent of our families 

were still stably housed! For the children, this stability, coupled with our education program, gives them 

the tools and opportunities to learn their way to a better tomorrow. 

Will you join us? Together, we are ending the cycle of homelessness, one child at a time.
