PhilanthropyA catalyst is an agent that initiates and facilitates change without

undergoing change itself. As we embrace new and exciting means

of promoting philanthropy, we remain committed to our founding

principles and to being a reliable supporter of our community.

Catalytic Philanthropy is not just about getting personally

involved, but getting others involved as well. It is not about giving

money away, but solving a problem. It begins with becoming knowl-

edgeable, then taking responsibility for achieving results. It means

building alliances and pooling resources—in essence stimulating

cross-sector collaboration and creating shared solutions.

As we focus on several stories that illustrate the broad range

of philanthropy we manage, we will highlight ways in which catalytic

philanthropy is at work and achieving results.

The Community Foundation 2010 Annual Report • 1

president and chairman’s letter

Philanthropy is grounded in the tradition of people helping people, and neighbors helping neighbors. Contributions of time, talent and treasure are all essential to the quality of life in our community and the promise of our shared future.

The Community Foundation serves as a catalyst for community betterment in many ways. We bring together people who want to make a difference, adding our deep community knowledge and providing funding for effective programs. We work closely with our nonprofit partners and conduct research to identify community needs and emerging trends. We deliver solid stewardship and personalized service to our donors, and we partner with other funders who share our desire to make the Greater Richmond region a better place.

A key strategy is to engage funding partners and nonprofits in new ways, made possible by the digital age. In 2010, TCF launched a new website called GiveRichmond.org, which provides in-depth informa-tion about 300 local nonprofits—a number that grows daily. Supported by a funding collaborative of 14 local funders, GiveRichmond is a free website that promotes smart, transparent giving and better informs local citizens about the important collective work of Central Virginia’s charitable sector.

We also engage donors in ways beyond traditional charitable funds. We were inspired by the first year efforts of Impact 100 Richmond, which united 280 women who leveraged their resources to make a single transformational grant of $100,000 to Southside Child Development Center. And we celebrated the power of many as 1,000 people of all ages volunteered for the 3rd Annual HandsOn Day, which included 40 organized service projects throughout the region.

Our ability to create lasting impact is made possible by the extraor-dinary talent and dedication of our volunteer board. In particular, we would like to recognize Booty Armstrong, who ended his two-year term as chairman in 2010. Booty sets the bar high for civic leadership and responsibility in our community, and we are grateful to him for challenging us to think big.

As you peruse the stories that follow, we hope you will picture your-self as a catalyst for hope, for action and for impact. If you are consid-ering becoming a donor, please let us know how we might partner with you to transform our community across generations.

CreativityLatin Ballet of Virginia

Catalytic philanthropy requires taking risk and staying the course

long enough to realize a potential reward. Soon after Ana King

moved to Richmond from her native Colombia, she noticed that her

daughter was not adapting well to the change in culture. Typically

gregarious, her daughter had become withdrawn. The only time she

showed confidence was through dance. From this experience, the

vision for the Latin Ballet of Virginia took shape.

2 • The Community Foundation 2010 Annual Report

Photo by Davey King

Ana believed that art could be a powerful catalyst for social change—a common language to break down barriers and foster understanding.

Ten years since becoming a nonprofit, the Latin Ballet is the area’s preeminent Hispanic dance company, offering over 100 dance classes per week and numerous educational programs in schools and community-based settings. Ana believes this success is largely based on luck, but we believe that success is rooted in Ana’s willingness to take risks.

When the Cultural Arts Center of Glen Allen offered Ana studio space in the Latin Ballet’s early days, she was doubtful anyone would show up. To her surprise, the classes filled quickly. With changing demographics throughout the region and an increasing demand for programming, Ana sought part-nerships with other nonprofits, schools and funders. Just as Ana took a chance on her dream, TCF took a chance as well.

FACTSIn 2000, TCF awarded the Latin Ballet

its first ever grant to support the “Be Proud of Yourself” educational program, which exposes students of all backgrounds to the rich and artistic heritage of Latin American and Spanish cultures. A subsequent grant supported the opening of a second dance school in Chesterfield, where many Hispanic families live. Most recently, TCF supported board development and strategic planning through the Partnership for Nonprofit Excellence, which is helping the Latin Ballet manage its growth more effectively.

Through funds like the Community Arts Endowment, TCF is pleased to support small and emerging arts organizations. Smaller nonprofits like the Latin Ballet greatly complement the work of established arts organizations that have encouraged creativity and diversity of thought in our community for generations.

CharacterEldridge Cook

Eldridge Cook knows something about overcoming odds.

The grandson of former slaves, he grew up in the segregated South.

At the age of 9, his mother died and he moved to Gloucester where

he was raised by his grandparents. Despite a perceived lack of

opportunity for minority youth, Eldridge was greatly influenced

by his grandfather, a local merchant, and Thomas Walker, the first

African American attorney in the county. They taught him that

with hard work and dedication, his dreams were possible.

FACTSJust out of high school, Eldridge pur-chased the first freight truck in Gloucester County and began transporting fresh seafood from local markets to cities along the East Coast. Over time, he expanded his fleet and added routes across the country. During World War II, he used the trucks to haul lumber for wartime use. In 1950, he officially started Cook’s Seafood Company, which became a leading seafood supplier in Hampton Roads and employed up to 250 people in its processing plants. Eldridge shut down opera-tions just last year at the age of 95.

The Virginia Assembly commended Eldridge in a joint resolution, declaring that “Eldridge Cook, throughout his life, has made many contributions not only to Virginia’s sea-food industry, but also to his community and his church, serving as an inspiration to every Virginian, irrespective of race or color.”

Despite his many accomplishments, Eldridge Cook remains extremely modest. He is a soft-spoken man who lets his actions speak for themselves. He loves Gloucester because it is his home. He works hard because he knows no other way; and, he gives back because he believes it is the right thing to do.

Eldridge’s story models the way for Gloucester’s youth, inspiring them to achieve their own dreams just as he did. Through a new fund at the Gloucester Community Foundation, Eldridge is giving a “hand up” to young people who are at-risk of falling through the cracks. His philanthropic vision is to help them build character and a brighter future through education and enrichment opportunities.

CompassionJanet & Moses Nunnally Fund

Many people entering Freedom House for the first time are

in crisis. For a variety of reasons, they have lost their jobs, homes

or families and they have nowhere else to turn. Freedom House

provides basic necessities like food, shelter and a supportive

environment to help these individuals gain the confidence and

skills they need to rebuild their lives.

As Janet Deskevich served meals one evening, she explained to her young daugh-ter that Freedom House is the place that uses the canned foods that she and her classmates collect at school. Janet continues the tradi-tion of giving with her family that her grand-parents instilled in her. “My grandparents were passionate about giving back. They wanted to provide opportunities to those less fortunate, especially children.”

Janet fondly remembers her grand mother knitting blankets for church mission trips and her grandfather taking boys from the local orphanage on fishing trips. Her grand-father volunteered on a number of nonprofit boards, including Virginia Home for Boys & Girls, where Janet later served. As her grand-father, Moses Nunnally, began to consider his family’s legacy, he created a charitable lead trust that would eventually fund the Janet & Moses Nunnally Fund in 1988. Through this

field of interest fund, the Nunnallys entrusted TCF to carry out their vision to support basic human needs in Richmond.

Since that time, our staff has kept remain-ing family members informed about investment performance and grants awarded from the fund. Janet says that TCF’s accountability and commitment to donor intent led the Nunnally family to make a contribution to the 2009 Safety Net Fund, which leveraged additional support for nonprofits challenged to meet the increased demand for services during the recession. Soon thereafter, Janet joined TCF’s distributions committee where she participates in the community grants process. “I am impressed by the amount of research that goes into each grant award. More importantly, I can see the change that is possible when funds created for similar interests can be used together for greater community benefit.”

CareersJ. Sargeant Reynolds Community College

Darrell, a junior at John Marshall High School, has been a member

of the Northside YMCA for four years. That is where he met Corey,

a community-based career counselor for J. Sargeant Reynolds

Community College who he now considers to be a trusted mentor and

friend. With a geographical twist on “outside of the box” thinking,

Corey helps students like Darrell envision their own path to a brighter

future. “We only know what we learn. That’s why it is important to give

these young people ‘outside of the blocks’ experiences,” says Corey.

The Community Foundation 2010 Annual Report • 9

With Corey’s encouragement, Darrell is thriving. He is actively involved in commu-nity service through the YMCA, coordinating a recycling program with other nonprofits. He has taken advantage of career explora-tion camps at Reynolds. And he recently won a statewide t-shirt design competition, which will allow him to compete in Kansas City this June. After visiting several colleges and uni-versities with Corey, Darrell is committed to furthering his education.

For students who do not have this same level of support, Reynolds provides programs that help them appreciate the need for a col-lege education. In high school, Laneisha was more interested in what was happening on the street than in the classroom. As a junior, she became pregnant and dropped out. When Laneisha later learned about Reynolds’ Middle College program, serving students who desire to receive their GED and con-tinue with college, she enrolled because

she wanted to be a good role model for her children. Today, she is a graduate of the pro-gram and is studying towards an associate’s degree in Reynolds’ nursing program.

The third largest of Virginia’s 23 commu-nity colleges, J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College has become an essential part of the educational pipeline for our community. Over the past decade, Reynolds has been swift in its response to growing enrollment as students seek more affordable options in higher education. It has also been innovative in its ability to develop new educational and certificate programs that better reflect the modern workforce. TCF donor advised grants help support this growth through student scholarships and funding for educational programs. And through our community grants program, TCF supports J. Sargeant Reynolds’ efforts to reach out to students like Darrell and Laneisha. Together, we are a catalyst for their future.

2010INVESTMENTPERFORMANCE

financial overview

In January 2008, the Foundation devel-oped a unique investment partnership with the University of Richmond (“The Richmond Fund”) by co-investing our endowed assets with the University’s endowment. The Richmond Fund is managed by Spider Management Company, which historically has ranked in the top quartile of its university peers. All area nonprofits have access to The Richmond Fund, either directly (with minimum asset size requirements) or by placing their endowment with The Community Foundation.

Assets increased significantly in 2010, primarily due to investment performance.

Gifts and grants declined from 2009, but remain at historically high levels. Operationally, we take appropriate expense control measures to maintain a low ratio of core operating expenses to the grants we make through TCF and its related entities.

As TCF’s grantmaking has grown significantly over the past decade, we have developed the Partnership for Nonprofit Excellence. Annually, TCF makes significant grants to support the Partnership’s programs that enable nonprofits to become more effective, maximizing the performance of leadership, staff and volunteers.

COMMONWEALTHFOUNDATIONSThe Community Foundation received its largest single gift in its history from Bill and Alice Goodwin in 1996, resulting in the creation of the Commonwealth Foundations.
