What is a <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong>?<br />

Established in 1994, the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> is a vehicle to build a substantial amount of money over time<br />

from the contributions of people of significant wealth and modest means, and to use the income from these<br />

funds, in the form of grants, to meet the community’s charitable needs now and into the future.<br />

Most of the funds at the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> are endowment funds. An endowment fund is a<br />

permanent fund that creates a sustainable flow of grant dollars forever. Through prudent investment, both the<br />

body of the endowment and the distribution available for grantmaking increase over time.<br />

The <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> has three unique features:<br />

• local expertise about important projects and programs that are making a significant difference in<br />

<strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong><br />

• personalized service to donors who want to maximize the impact of their contributions; and<br />

• community convener for issues that benefit from partnerships.<br />

With the support of those who care about <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong>, we will continue to grow and enhance the<br />

quality of life for all of those who live and work in <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong>.<br />

TABLE OF CONTENTS<br />

I expect to pass through life but once. — If therefore, there be any kindness I<br />

can show, or any good thing I can do to any fellow-being, let me do it now, and<br />

not defer or neglect it, as I shall not pass this way again<br />

from the CHAIR AND PRESIDENT<br />

THE POWER OF LEGACY PHILANTHRROPY<br />

Dear Friends:<br />

Our mission is clear. The <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> leads, inspires and encourages<br />

all individuals and organizations to create or contribute to lasting philanthropic charitable<br />

legacies, using the power of collective philanthropy to improve the quality of life primarily in<br />

<strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong>.<br />

We are passionate about the power of philanthropy to address community needs and make<br />

positive changes in people’s lives. Each day, we are inspired by donors who create funds in order<br />

to give back to the community they know and love.<br />

At the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong>, our aim is to increase the level of philanthropy in <strong>Chester</strong><br />

<strong>County</strong> by working with individuals, families and businesses to help them make charitable<br />

investments in their communities and across the U.S. We identify current and emerging<br />

community needs. We convene forums to help community leaders, donors and partners<br />

understand the interconnections, extent and depth of the needs. We stimulate resources and<br />

partnerships to address those needs, and we promote well-informed, responsible grantmaking.<br />

This year, the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong>’s convening role grew. Throughout the year, more than<br />

175 professional advisors attended our outreach sessions at nonprofit sites that have endowments<br />

with the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong>, to learn more about planned giving options. Nonprofits<br />

convened to attend our 3-part endowment training series, in order to strengthen their planned<br />

giving, prospect research and cultivation initiatives. Also, we co-convened more than 225<br />

nonprofits in two sessions to learn the latest issues in nonprofit accountability, and recruiting<br />

volunteers over age 50.<br />

In our convening role, our spring “Behind the Scenes” tours drew record numbers of participants.<br />

Over 150 people joined us to learn about community issues in Kimberton, Coatesville, Kennett<br />

and West <strong>Chester</strong>. In addition, we convened quarterly meetings of <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong> Funders, to<br />

share information on private, corporate, federated, and government funding issues and nonprofit<br />

needs.<br />

We also launched a highly successful Youth Philanthropy Initiative in partnership with Great<br />

Valley High School. Twenty teens met monthly to learn about charity’s role in society, visit<br />

various nonprofit charities, raise matching funds, and award grants. One teen summed up the<br />

joy of philanthropy, stating “It’s what we do for others, to improve the world, that really counts.”<br />

WHAT LEGACY WILL YOU LEAVE?<br />

Philanthropy means much more than sending a check. It ensures your<br />

continuing support for causes you care about, in perpetuity. It gives<br />

you the opportunity to carry on a family giving legacy. And, combined<br />

with careful estate planning, it ensures that your personal resources<br />

are put to use in ways that accomplish both your financial and charitable<br />

goals.<br />

Gifts to the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> can be made at any time to<br />

provide funds for current community needs and for perpetuity. By<br />

establishing a fund with the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong>, you receive:<br />

Permanence: The <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong>’s trusteeship ensures that<br />

your contribution will continually meet needs relevant to your interests.<br />

Commemoration: Your name or the name of a loved one can live on<br />

through your fund. If you prefer, you may choose a name that reflects<br />

your fund’s charitable purpose.<br />

Stewardship: The <strong>Foundation</strong>’s Board of Directors, with guidance<br />

from its Investment Committee, staff, and outside investment<br />

counsel, closely monitors the performance of professional investment<br />

managers. The <strong>Foundation</strong> makes a full accounting to the community<br />

through its <strong>annual</strong> <strong>report</strong>, audit, and IRS Form 990.<br />

Grantmaking Expertise: The <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> can expertly<br />

assist you in identifying charitable organizations and programs that<br />

address your particular interests.<br />

WAYS TO GIVE<br />

There are many ways to become part of the<br />

<strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> and make a lasting<br />

contribution to our community:<br />

fund, a scholarship fund, or a memorial fund,<br />

• Support <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong>’s greatest needs and<br />

our Fund for <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong><br />

• Focus your gift with a contribution to a Field<br />

education, environment, religion)<br />

• Give anonymously<br />

• Make a planned gift, through your will, a<br />

charitable trust, or a charitable gift annuity,<br />

to support a thriving, healthy <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong><br />

community for years to come.<br />

wide variety of gifts including:<br />

awards OF THE FOUNDATION<br />

PHILANTHROPY AWARDS<br />

Dr. Henry A. and Barbara M. Jordan Award: Penny Wilson<br />

The <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> created the Jordan Award in 1999 to honor the philanthropy of<br />

Dr. Henry A. and Barbara M. Jordan of <strong>Chester</strong> Springs. This award <strong>annual</strong>ly honors an individual<br />

who has demonstrated a lifetime of exemplary philanthropic leadership. Philanthropic involvement<br />

must be broad in scope, leading to significant accomplishments that ultimately make a real difference<br />

in improving the quality of life in <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong>.<br />

This year, the Jordan Award was bestowed upon Penelope “Penny” Wilson of Malvern, to honor<br />

her life-long, far-reaching philanthropy, particularly in historic preservation, arts, culture, health<br />

and human services. Her generosity and commitment to the community has impacted too many<br />

nonprofits to name them all.<br />

Ms. Wilson has been a strong supporter of the <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong> Historical Society, inspiring others<br />

to give and helping to create important partnerships. In 1983 Ms. Wilson co-founded Historic<br />

Sugartown, and she has served as a member of the Board of Directors ever since. According to<br />

co-nominator John Nagy, “At Historic Sugartown she has been a driving force…with untiring<br />

devotion to our projects and strict attention to detail and authenticity.”<br />

Ms. Wilson has been an active, longstanding member of the Willistown Branch of the Women’s<br />

Auxiliary to the <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong> Hospital, as well as served as a member of the Hospital’s Board<br />

of Directors. Notes co-nominator H.L. “Perry” Pepper, President of The <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong> Hospital,<br />

“Ms. Wilson has given generously of her time, personal resources and talents for more than 40<br />

years. Examples of her philanthropic leadership qualities go far beyond financial generosity.They<br />

include her willingness to share her expertise with those charged with creating and sustaining<br />

fundraising projects…She has ‘raised the bar’ for many in our community.”<br />

Ms. Wilson chose a new<br />

initiative, the East End<br />

Neighborhood Association of<br />

West <strong>Chester</strong>, to receive the<br />

Jordan Award’s $5,000 grant.<br />

The grant will be used to<br />

develop programs for youth,<br />

with an emphasis on art,<br />

music, drama and dance to<br />

foster alternative learning<br />

styles while motivating and<br />

inspiring greatness.<br />

PHILANTHROPY AWARDS<br />

The <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> commemorated<br />

its 10th anniversary by establishing Let Your Legacy<br />

Make A Difference Awards to highlight philanthropic good<br />

works and inspire more throughout <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong>.<br />

Philanthropy is defined as “active efforts to promote<br />

human welfare as manifested in donations of money, property,<br />

or work to needy persons or to socially useful purposes.”<br />

Legacy philanthropists give of their own time and<br />

resources, as well as inspire others to give for the long run.<br />

THANKS FOR CARING AWARD:<br />

Donald J. L. Coppedge<br />

The Thanks for Caring Award spotlights<br />

neighborhood organizers who<br />

work at a grassroots level to promote<br />

local causes by giving time, talent and<br />

treasure, as well as recruiting others to<br />

the causes.<br />

Donald J. L. Coppedge of Phoenixville<br />

received the first <strong>annual</strong> “Thanks for<br />

Caring Award.” Mr. Coppedge was nurtured in a strong<br />

family environment filled with the riches of faith, integrity,<br />

social concerns and community involvement. This was the<br />

foundation for a lifetime career of service in organizations<br />

that serve the greater community.<br />

Mr. Coppedge’s impact, leadership and long-term involvement<br />

has been with a variety of organizations, including the<br />

Phoenixville YMCA, the Greater Phoenixville Council of<br />

Churches, Phoenixville Homes, the Phoenixville Area<br />

Progressive Club, the Kiwanis Club of Phoenixville, and<br />

Grimes A.M.E. Church. Mr. Coppedge chose the Kiwanis<br />

Club of Phoenixville and Grimes A.M.E. Church to share<br />

his grant award.<br />

DOOR OPENER AWARD: Stephen J. McGann<br />

The Door Opener Award is given<br />

to a professional advisor who takes<br />

the initiative to bring legacy philanthropy<br />

options to the attention of<br />

their clients for their consideration.<br />

Stephen J. McGann received the first<br />

<strong>annual</strong> “Door Opener Award.” The<br />

<strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> established<br />

the Door Opener Award to recognize its strong relationship<br />

with professional advisors, such as trust officers, estate<br />

planners, financial managers, and wealth managers.<br />

Mr. McGann consistently urges clients and colleagues to<br />

consider philanthropy in their planning, and to consider<br />

the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> as a philanthropy option.<br />

Mr. McGann chose the Vaughn Fund of the West <strong>Chester</strong><br />

Sunrise Rotary Club to receive his grant check.<br />

CORPORATE SOCIAL INVESTMENT AWARD:<br />

Richard A. Kunsch, Sr. of Phoenixville Federal<br />

Bank & Trust<br />

The Corporate Social Investment<br />

Award is given to a corporate leader<br />

who demonstrates sound principles of<br />

business leadership and helps the<br />

community prosper by consistently<br />

supporting local charities.<br />

Mr. Kunsch, who tithes 10% of<br />

Phoenixville Federal Bank & Trust’s profits to Phoenixville<br />

charities, lives by the golden rule—“It is better to give than<br />

to receive.” Mr. Kunsch has a widespread influence on<br />

community theatre, affordable housing, economic development,<br />

health care, and physical fitness as a volunteer,<br />

fundraising leader, and philanthropist. For over 40 years,<br />

through his charismatic leadership and commanding presence,<br />

he has been a vital influence in the Phoenixville community.<br />

It is difficult to think of a community project, particularly<br />

those dealing with healthcare and social needs,<br />

which has not had Mr. Kunsch’s corporate or personal<br />

imprint. Mr. Kunsch chose The Clinic in Phoenixville to<br />

receive the grant that accompanies this award.<br />

EXCEPTIONAL ACHIEVEMENT AWARD:<br />

Charles P. and Louise W. Baker<br />

The Bakers have devoted 23<br />

years of their life to the<br />

creation and building of Baker<br />

Industries. With their energy<br />

and ingenuity, in 1980 the<br />

Bakers created an appropriate<br />

working environment for their<br />

epileptic, learning-disabled<br />

son. But they didn’t stop<br />

there. Several moves and many expansions later, this modest<br />

nonprofit enterprise has grown to include a work site in<br />

Malvern employing 75 people and a location in<br />

Philadelphia employing more than 100 people. This<br />

includes the hardest-to-employ homeless people, and those<br />

recovering from drug and alcohol problems.<br />

In recognition of years of dedicated service, going above<br />

and beyond their own needs and helping fill a void in the<br />

community, the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> spotlights the<br />

Bakers with this Exceptional Achievement Legacy Award.<br />

It is accompanied by a grant to Baker Industries.<br />

The <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> accepts nominations for Legacy<br />

Awards throughout the year. Decisions are made each summer.<br />

To receive a nomination form, contact the <strong>Community</strong><br />

<strong>Foundation</strong> at (610) 696-8211 or info@chescocf.org.<br />

NEW FUND HIGHLIGHTS<br />

The <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> welcomes 31 new funds this year. Although we are proud<br />

of all of our funds, space permits only a few to be highlighted.<br />

ANONYMOUS FUND, ESTABLISHED BY “MR. & MRS. SMITH”<br />

“We’re getting up there in age. When it came time to sell our home and head to a retirement community, we realized that<br />

we were going to have more money than we would need. Finally, it was our chance to do something charitable in a big way.<br />

All our lives, we’ve wanted to do something like this.<br />

“We knew the charity we wanted to donate to. It is not a well-known charity. But our family had benefited from its services,<br />

and it continues to struggle financially to provide exceptional services to the community. We couldn’t part with all our<br />

money at once. In talking with our financial planner and estate planner, we decided that a charitable gift annuity was the<br />

way to go. We could donate the real estate proceeds in a lump sum, and get an immediate tax deduction. And we could<br />

also get some money paid to us over our lifetime, so there is an ongoing source of income. We can have our cake and eat<br />

it, too. We can provide for our favorite charity, but we can also have some life income.<br />

“Then we found out that our favorite charity didn’t have the capability to offer us a charitable gift annuity. The administration<br />

was beyond them. However, at the same time, we heard that the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> could handle charitable gift<br />

annuities.<br />

“It turned out that the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> was the right vehicle for us. The <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> could accept a six<br />

figure real estate proceeds gift, arrange to pay us lifetime income, and earmark the remaining funds for our favorite <strong>Chester</strong><br />

<strong>County</strong> charity. Plus the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> can preserve our anonymity, which is very important to us. And on top of<br />

all that, the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> can still tell our story, and hopefully inspire other people to make this kind of gift to<br />

benefit their favorite charities as well.<br />

“We’re delighted that the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> understands that planning for the future takes on new dimensions as we<br />

age. The <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> understands that donors want financial security, and also to leave something meaningful<br />

behind.”<br />

TEMENOS RETREAT CENTER’S “IN COMPANY WITH ANGELS”<br />

Today it seems that sacred spaces are dwindling while secularism thrives. Many of us crave a respite<br />

from the spiritually-zapped day-to-day routine. The Temenos Retreat Center’s In Company with<br />

Angels project is an answer to this need. The project exhibits seven freestanding, eight-foot stained<br />

glass windows, each depicting an angel. Temenos is touring the angels as a virtual church without<br />

walls to encourage recognition that spirituality is present in all aspects of life and that everyone who<br />

lives a good life the best they know how is a part of a universal church.<br />

Temenos calls the angels “messengers of peace, healing and connection among all people” and offers<br />

the exhibit to encourage spiritual inquiry and interfaith acceptance. Manifestations of the sacred,<br />

these windows are beacons of historic and artistic significance.<br />

The windows were created by Tiffany Studios in New York City at the end of the 19 th century.<br />

Remarkably, these 100 year old windows have spent the last 40 years in storage. Now, having been<br />

rediscovered, these seven masterpieces are in significant need of restoration. Temenos created the In<br />

Company with Angels fund to stimulate community participation and support for the restoration and<br />

touring effort. The tour will commence with the completed restoration, which is projected for the<br />

Spring of 2006.<br />

WILLIAM TAYLOR MEMORIAL FUND<br />

William M. Taylor, known as Bill, is the beloved late husband of State<br />

Representative Elinor Z.Taylor. Bill demonstrated a lifetime interest in and dedication<br />

to emergency and medical services. During World War II, Bill served as a<br />

First Class Medic for the Navy. In the early 1960’s, Bill joined the Good<br />

Fellowship Ambulance program.<br />

Bill passed away on Fathers’ Day, June 20, 2004. His wife felt the most compelling<br />

way to remember him while giving back to the community was to create a<br />

scholarship fund.The scholarship would be awarded to someone who, like her husband,<br />

is committed to service, but more specifically, service as a paramedic or<br />

firefighter. The Honorable Dr. Elinor Z. Taylor said, “Establishing the Memorial<br />

Fund draws focus to the causes which William held so dear. As an educator, he<br />

helped students advance to reach their full potential.This was first and foremost<br />

on his mind, every day of his career.”<br />

In May, Michael Brewer, upon graduation from Henderson High School, was<br />

named the first recipient of The William Taylor Memorial Scholarship. Michael is<br />

the third generation in his family’s longstanding tradition of volunteer service to<br />

Firehouse Station 51, following his mother, his father and his grandfather. With<br />

the help of Taylor’s scholarship, Michael will attend Cabrini College. He plans to<br />

study microbiology, play lacrosse, and volunteer at a nearby firehouse.<br />

This scholarship award marks the intersection of Michael’s commitment to his<br />

family’s legacy of service with Bill’s commitment to his community. Bill’s <strong>annual</strong><br />

scholarship fund will, year after year, enable and encourage young people, like<br />

Michael, to pursue higher education and serve their communities.<br />

CHAIN OF LOVE FOUNDATION FOR TURNER SYNDROME<br />

The idea of parents watching their child suffer is heartbreaking. When Steve and<br />

Kim Niggeman’s 3-year-old daughter was diagnosed with Turner Syndrome,<br />

instead of succumbing to the ordeal they now faced, they chose to proactively<br />

confront their daughter’s condition.<br />

In creating the <strong>Foundation</strong>, the Niggeman’s became not only passionate advocates<br />

of their daughter, but advocates for girls and women who suffer from Turner<br />

Syndrome.<br />

The <strong>Foundation</strong> has allowed the Niggeman’s to create a network of support for<br />

families and patients. Kim Niggeman explains, “It is a logical next step for us to<br />

establish the Turner Syndrome <strong>Foundation</strong> with the hopes of finding the medical<br />

means to mitigate the impact of this tragic disease.”<br />

Turner Syndrome, a condition that occurs exclusively in women, results when one<br />

of the two X chromosomes normally found in females is missing or incomplete.<br />

Named after Dr. Henry Turner,Turner Syndrome presents itself most commonly as<br />

short stature and lack of ovarian development. Other characteristics involve predisposition<br />

to cardiovascular, kidney and thyroid conditions.<br />

Today there is no cure for Turner Syndrome, but various treatments using growth<br />

hormones or estrogen replacement can alleviate and manage the symptoms.The<br />

<strong>Foundation</strong>’s mission to promote early detection, to recognize and foster healthy<br />

management of symptoms, and to increase the quality of life for those afflicted<br />

with Turner Syndrome.<br />

The Niggeman’s wish for their daughter is their wish for all women afflicted with<br />

this agonizing disorder: a full, vibrant life. The Chain of Love <strong>Foundation</strong> for<br />

Turner Syndrome is a positive step in the right direction.<br />

<strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong> 2020 was established in 1996<br />

to fund and pursue activities that provide<br />

information, promote dialogue and build consensus<br />

around issues of planning and growth<br />

management that are addressed under the<br />

<strong>County</strong>’s comprehensive plan, Landscapes.<br />

Over the years this has developed into the four<br />

C’s of Convene, Communicate, Cooperate and<br />

Contribute.<br />

What happens at <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong> 2020<br />

programs?<br />

• Understanding and communication<br />

are increased among those with opposing<br />

viewpoints.<br />

• People discover common ground, leading to<br />

a more productive decision-making process.<br />

• Voices from the broad community come<br />

together as equals.<br />

• Concerns are addressed before contention<br />

divides constituencies into “them and us.”<br />

• Participants gain better understanding of<br />

all aspects of a particular issue.<br />

• Growth is accepted in the best possible way:<br />

balancing land preservation with thoughtful<br />

development<br />

Keep Farming First: The strong partnership<br />

with <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong> Development Council and<br />

the Penn State Cooperative Extension-<strong>Chester</strong><br />

<strong>County</strong> is planning for the fourth Keep Farming<br />

First, to be held on February 16, 2006. National<br />

experts will again join county specialists and<br />

top-of-the-line farmers in sessions to address<br />

opportunities to improve the farmers’ economic<br />

picture, thus saving the farmer as well as the<br />

farm.<br />

Under One Roof: To address the ongoing need<br />

for affordable housing, the Committee responsible<br />

for the Under One Roof summit<br />

in June 2003, in partnership with CC2020,<br />

<strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong> Transportation Management<br />

Association (TMACC) and <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong><br />

Planning Commission (CCPC,) created the<br />

Getting There initiative. This evolved from the<br />

assertion that “the connection between land<br />

planning and transportation is inescapable.”<br />

Reports from both summits are available.<br />

Master Planner Program: 20<strong>05</strong> marks the<br />

third year of the Master Planner Program, a<br />

series developed by the PA Planning Association<br />

and Penn State Extension Service via PA<br />

Municipal Planning Education Institute. Each<br />

course, offered to municipal officials, planning<br />

commissions, zoning hearing boards, citizens and<br />

the corporate community, qualifies for a continuing<br />

education unit credit. The completion of<br />

three basic courses in three years is recognized<br />

with a “Master Planner Certificate.” The program<br />

is sponsored by CC2020, CCPC, and West<br />

<strong>Chester</strong> University’s School of Business & Public<br />

Affairs and the Department of Geography.<br />

Land Trust Consortium: This new program<br />

offers all of <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong>’s land trusts the<br />

opportunity to communicate and cooperate<br />

around issues of common interest, with CC2020<br />

serving as the convening body.<br />

FUND TYPES<br />

The <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> accepts endowed and provisional funds in each of<br />

these areas. Endowed Funds are allowed a 5% grant payout for perpetuity, to<br />

assure that grant funds are always available to help nonprofits through good as<br />

well as difficult economic times. Provisional Funds can be paid out in full at any<br />

time. Grants can be awarded to qualifying nonprofit causes throughout the<br />

United States.<br />

Fund for <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong> ..<br />

This fund focuses on making grants to <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong> nonprofits in areas of<br />

greatest need, as targeted by the Grants Committee of the <strong>Foundation</strong>. Donations<br />

of any size are welcome to this fund at any time.<br />

Field of Interest Funds<br />

Donors who seek to impact a targeted Field of Interest (arts, education, environment,<br />

health, social service) or specific geographic region establish Field of<br />

Interest Funds. By naming an interest area rather than a specific organization,<br />

flexibility exists to meet ever-changing needs.<br />

Donor Advised Funds<br />

An alternative to a private foundation, Donor Advised Funds are popular with<br />

donors who wish to establish a <strong>Foundation</strong> under the umbrella of the <strong>Community</strong><br />

<strong>Foundation</strong> without incurring administrative operating and compliance filing burdens.<br />

Donor Advised Funds enable individuals, families, community groups, and<br />

businesses to focus their philanthropy and make grants that impact the causes<br />

they care about most.<br />

Scholarship Funds<br />

Establishing a Scholarship Fund allows the donor to benefit students pursuing<br />

education beyond high school. A donor may name the scholarship’s selection<br />

committee and the guidelines for candidate selection. Most scholarships at the<br />

<strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> benefit disadvantaged, high achieving students from a<br />

particular high school, or those who pursue a particular field of study.<br />

Memorial Funds<br />

Donors can quickly and cost-effectively create commemorative funds honoring<br />

people they hold dear.<br />

Affiliated Funds<br />

Working under the umbrella of the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong>, Affiliated Funds can<br />

be established as special initiatives of the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> Board. These<br />

funds have independent programs and funding, and they maintain advisory boards<br />

while operating under the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong>’s 501 ( c ) ( 3 ) tax status.<br />

FUNDS<br />

Organizational Endowment and Nonprofit-Designated Funds<br />

Designated Funds are created by nonprofit organizations and individual donors<br />

who care about the long-term success of a particular nonprofit charity. This lets<br />

donors support specific organizations while the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> manages<br />

investments professionally and monitors for accountability.<br />

There is a $10,000 minimum to start a new fund. Any amount can be added<br />

to existing funds. The <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> will be glad to work with<br />

donors to determine the best methods to achieve their charitable goals.

DONORS 7/1/2004 TO 6/30/20<strong>05</strong><br />

The Board and Staff of the <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> gratefully recognize our donors during fiscal year 20<strong>05</strong>. These<br />

philanthropists made contributions to <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> operations, affiliated fund operations and endowments,<br />

programs, services, scholarships and special projects. Donations to <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> funds totaled $3.5 million from<br />

1,732 donors.<br />

All donations are vital to us. However, due to space limitations, honorary and memorial gifts could not be specifically noted, and<br />

donations under $75 could not be included in this listing. This does not minimize their importance to us at all.<br />

INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT<br />

The <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> continually strives to provide the highest level of stewardship possible for all funds of the <strong>Community</strong><br />

<strong>Foundation</strong>. Our Investment Committee is comprised of community leaders who volunteer their time and share their expertise<br />

with the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> to make sure our funds realize their optimum return. The Investment Committee oversees the<br />

performance of five portfolio investment managers. They include:<br />

Hirtle, Callaghan & Co. serves as the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong>’s Chief Investment<br />

Officer. Hirtle Callaghan invests the majority of the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong>’s long term<br />

funds, compiles investment figures from all of our investment managers, and helps the<br />

Investment Committee see that the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong>’s asset allocation and diversification goals are met.<br />

As a firm, Hirtle Callaghan’s first investment objective is to protect principal. Hirtle Callaghan’s second investment objective is<br />

significantly to out-perform inflation net of all fees. Hirtle Callaghan’s third investment objective is to achieve attractive returns<br />

relative to appropriate benchmarks and manager peer groups.<br />

INVESTMENTS<br />

First National Bank of <strong>Chester</strong> <strong>County</strong>’s investment philosophy blends equity and fixed-income<br />

securities in an effort to provide the growth and income necessary to meet clients’ stated objectives.<br />

For growth, First National’s investment strategy focuses on containing risk and providing attractive<br />

inflation-adjusted returns through a diversified portfolio of high-quality, large capitalization equity<br />

issues. First National believes that investments with above-average earnings and dividend growth will produce lower volatility<br />

and will result in consistently creditable returns relative to appropriate benchmarks. First National’s fixed-income approach also<br />

stresses risk management, by using issues with above-average credit quality and limiting portfolios to short/intermediate maturities.<br />

Throughout continually changing economic and market conditions, First National uses a disciplined approach in assessing<br />

the relationship between risk and return, in allocating assets, and in monitoring performance.<br />

HISTORIC LAFAYETTE SYCAMORE OF BRANDYWINE BATTLEFIELD, 1787<br />

“It is every man’s obligation<br />

to put back into the world at least the equivalent<br />

of what he takes out of it.”<br />

Albert Einstein<br />

Domini Social Investments manages more than $1.8 billion in assets for investors who wish to integrate<br />

social and environmental criteria into their investment decisions. In addition to applying strict<br />

exclusionary screens to certain industries such as tobacco and nuclear power, Domini applies a comprehensive<br />

set of social and environmental screens to investments, in the belief that meeting certain<br />

baseline standards of corporate citizenship is both good for society and good for the bottom line. Domini believes its screens help<br />

identify companies that are led by more visionary management teams with more enlightened policies and practices. In the long<br />

run, Domini believes companies with fewer environmental liabilities, more diverse boards and workforces, generous employee benefits,<br />

and authentic commitments to their communities are better positioned to succeed and prosper. Domini is guided by the<br />

knowledge that it is possible to earn a competitive return while using investments to make a difference in the world. It is no<br />

longer necessary to choose between your principles and your investments.<br />

Haverford Trust adheres to a successful investment strategy that is characterized by<br />

consistent, predictable growth and the containment of risk. By investing in “blue-chip”<br />

growth stocks, and, when appropriate, high quality bonds, Haverford Trust maximizes<br />

investment returns and minimizes downside risk over the long term. Central to Haverford Trust’s equity philosophy is the belief<br />

that company earnings drive stock prices, and that high quality blue chip growth stocks provide the most attractive risk-adjusted<br />

returns over the long term. Haverford Trust focuses on companies that have a long history of predictable and consistent earnings<br />

growth in good and bad economic times and avoid cyclical companies whose earnings growth is closely tied to the economy.<br />

Weathervane Wealth Management provides highly customized portfolio management to an elite<br />

cadre of investors. Located in Exton, Weathervane’s investment philosophy is to adhere to a disciplined<br />

approach to investing, diversifying among multiple asset classes and investment styles in<br />

order to manage risk and produce attractive risk adjusted, long-term results. While Weathervane’s<br />

goal is to achieve attractive long-term results, Weathervane understands that managing risk is the key to creating and preserving<br />

long-term wealth.<br />

The <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> is proud of our investment managers, who understand the value of community legacy philanthropy. We are<br />

always interested in learning about new investment managers who promote legacy philanthropy. To request a copy of our Investment<br />

Policies and Guidelines, please contact the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> at (610) 696-8211 or info@chescocf.org.
