The Beckley Area Foundation Board of Directors recognized that economic challenges within our service area have increased the number of people being served by organizations supplying hot meals and non-perishable food items to those in need. As a result BAF set aside $5,500 of West Virginia state tax credits allocated through the Neighborhood Investment Program for the 5th Annual Feed Our Friends Initiative benefitting area food banks. Local food pantries received $11,000 as a result of this initiative.

Food pantries benefitting from this initiative were:

The Carpenter’s Corner $8,000Salvation Army $1,000Shepherd’s Table $1,000Bread of Life $1,000

BAF’s Susan Landis Youth Philanthropist (SLYP) initiative is designed to encourage high school students to become involved in giving back through community service and to cultivate a philanthropic mindset. Led by Beth Jarrell and Amanda Sauchuck, the group has been using the Chick-fil-A Leader Academy as a guide for monthly meetings stressing the value of volunteering and developing leadership and communication skills. This year’s SLYP participants focused on ‘Do Good December’ activities and a year-end ‘Impact Project’.

The group is named after the previous executive director of the Beckley Area Foundation, Susan Landis. Susan passed away during the summer of 2017 at the beginning stages of forming this group. She had a desire to continue the legacy of BAF and felt strongly that “leadership and philanthropy should be introduced to students early and often”.

Over the last two years, SLYP has completed several community outreach projects:• Packed care bags to be sent overseas to military personnel;• The 2018 ‘Do Good December’ project provided bottled water and snacks, as well as, decorated two waiting room

areas for the holidays at Raleigh General Hospital and prepared snacks for the Cheer Cart that is taken around to the patients. Also, activity packets and snacks where provided at Beckley Appalachian Regional Hospital;

• Assisted in cleaning and painting the children’s areas of the Women’s Resource Center;• Glazed bowls for Quota Club’s “Empty Bowls” fundraiser;• Helped Quota Club pack toiletry items for the Pine Haven Homeless Shelter residents;• Partnered with the #notuswv movement during the Active Southern WV Free Fun Run/Walk. As a vendor at the

Fun Run, SLYP students provided healthy snacks, water bottles, wristbands and designed #notuswv t-shirts to give to attendees. They joined the #notus movement because they see the impact of the drug epidemic in WV and the United States. The students agree that it is important to make young people aware and hopefully prevent drug abuse.

SLYP members are students from Raleigh County High Schools. Currently, our students represent Shady Spring, Woodrow Wilson and Liberty high schools and Greater Beckley Christian School.

This year’s youth philanthropists were: Ladimir Garcia, Destiny Stover, Amber Meadows, Madeline Sarrett, Jill Mitchell, Madeline Boyd, Joey Mitchem, David Maiolo, Dillon Ewing, Luke Lilly, Nathan Daniels, Christy Jones, Grant Davis, Sachet Sachdeva, Hannah Lawson

RacHel’s cHallenge

Rachel Joy Scott was the first person killed in the Columbine High School shooting April 20, 1999; it’s been 19 years since 12 innocent lives were lost. Now, Rachel’s Challenge, a Foundation for creating programs promoting a positive climate in K-12 schools, has touched 25 million people. According to Rachel’s Challenge official webpage, officials reported 160,000 students skip school every day in the U.S. for fear of being bullied. Every year 1.5 million people are involved in Rachel’s Challenge programs, more than 1,200 schools and businesses are reached, over 150 suicides are averted, bullying and violence decrease, and community service and acts of kindness increase.

The Beckley Area Foundation was delighted to accept the challenge and teamed up with the Raleigh County BOE to provide “Buddy Benches” at 17 Raleigh County elementary schools. The Buddy Bench is a simple idea to eliminate loneliness, foster friendship on the playground and spread the message of inclusion and kindness. It can also be a safe place for a child to go if they’re being bullied and want to alert teachers to a problem. These schools also received $200 grants to support community service projects selected by the students. Items were donated to the Women’s Resource Center, Raleigh County Animal Shelter, Pine Haven Homeless Shelter, Brian’s Safehouse and Sparrows Nest just to name a few of the organizatons the students chose to support.

BECKLEY AREA FOUNDATION, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

- 5 -

Note 1 – Nature of Foundation Beckley Area Foundation, Inc. (“the Foundation”) is a not-for-profit community foundation incorporated under the laws of West Virginia.

The Foundation accepts donations to permanent endowment funds, invests and manages such donations, and distributes net earnings of the endowment funds as grants and scholarships, generally on an annual basis. Funds held include named unrestricted funds whose earnings are distributed solely at the discretion of the Foundation’s Board of Directors as well as funds whose earnings are distributed subject to the designation or advice of the donors. All distributions are subject to the approval of the Board of Directors. Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies

CONTRIBUTIONS: Contributions received are recorded at their fair market value on the date received. Contributions received for which the donor directs to be added to a donor-restricted endowment fund are reported as with donor restrictions.

USE OF ESTIMATES: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported revenues and expenditures during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates as additional information becomes known.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS: Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash held in checking accounts. The checking accounts are insured to limits set by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. At various times during the fiscal year, the Foundation’s cash in bank balances exceeded the federally insured limits. INVESTMENTS: Investments are stated at their fair market value based on price quotations available in the open market and supplied by three local banking institutions, and all investments are readily marketable and subject to market risks in the amount such investments are recorded. Cash and equivalents consist of cash and money market funds. Dividends and interest earned, unrealized and realized gains or losses, trustee fees and administrative charges are allocated among endowment funds on a pro-rata basis.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT: The Foundation capitalizes property and equipment expenditures over $1,000. This cost is charged to operations as depreciation on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the assets. All assets currently on hand are being depreciated over five to seven years. Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. The real estate is various parcels of property donated to the Foundation.

GRANTS PAYABLE: Grants and scholarships awarded by the Foundation are approved by the Board of Directors and recorded as expenditures at the time of approval. GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATION: The Foundation receives its donations and awards grants and scholarships primarily in Raleigh County, West Virginia and counties contiguous thereto.

Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) INVESTMENTS AND SPENDING POLICIES: The Board of Directors of the Foundation has interpreted the Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act (UPMIFA) as requiring the preservation of the fair value of the original gift as of the gift date of the donor-restricted endowment funds absent explicit donor stipulations to the contrary. The Foundation classifies as net assets with donor restrictions (1) the original value of gifts donated to the permanent endowment, (2) the original value of subsequent gifts to the permanent endowment, and (3) accumulations to the permanent endowment made in accordance with the direction of the donor gift instrument at the time the accumulation is added to the fund. The remaining portion of the donor-restricted endowment fund is classified as net assets with donor restrictions until those amounts are appropriated for expenditure by the Foundation in a manner consistent with the standard of prudence prescribed in UPMIFA. The Foundation considers (1) the preservation of the fund, (2) the purposes of the Foundation and the donor-restricted endowment fund, (3) general economic conditions, (4) investment returns, and (5) the investment policies of the Foundation in making a determination to appropriate or accumulate donor-restricted endowment funds. In order to satisfy its long-term objectives, the Foundation relies on a total return strategy in which investment returns are achieved though both capital appreciation (realized and unrealized) and current yield (interest and dividends). The Foundation targets a diversified asset allocation to achieve its long-term return objectives within prudent risk constraints. The goals of the Foundation’s investment policy are to provide maximum income commensurate with safety of principal and achieve stable capital growth. To achieve its long-term investment goals the Foundation invests in obligations of the United States government, obligations of agencies of the United States government, mutual funds, corporate bonds and equity holdings. The investments are held in the trust departments of three local banking institutions which are given guidelines on diversification of assets to avoid undo risk concentration. Subject to the terms of any fund agreement, the Declaration of Trust and / or West Virginia law, the amount that the Foundation makes available for grants from each fund is calculated by computing 3.5% of the twelve quarter rolling average of the market value of the fund as of December 31st of each year. Grants are reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors. Should the total market value of any fund fall below the initial principal plus additional contributions to the principal, no distributions will be made unless authorized by the fund agreement or the Board of Directors as permitted by law.

DONATED SERVICES: Many individuals have made significant contributions of their time to manage and operate the Foundation. The value of this contributed time is not reflected in these financial statements since it is not susceptible to objective measurement or valuation. LEASES: The Foundation leases office space on a month to month basis. Rent expense under this lease was $6,220 and $6,960 for the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 respectively. NON-CASH GIFTS: When gifts are received for non-cash assets, the Foundation uses available resources to determine the fair value of the gift and recognizes revenue at that amount.

Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) CLASSIFICATION OF NET ASSETS: The Foundation reports information regarding its financial position and activities according to two classes of net assets: without donor restrictions and with donor restrictions as required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in its Accounting Standards Codification Topic 958 – Not-for-Profit Entities (FASB ASC Topic 958). Interest, dividends, unrealized and realized gains or losses from various named unrestricted donor-designated funds, contributions not classified as with donor restrictions, the four general discretionary board-designated endowment funds and the operating non-endowment fund are classified as net assets without donor restrictions in the financials. Net assets with donor restrictions consist of contributions received with donor stipulations that restrict the use of the donated assets. When the donor restrictions expire due to a time restriction ending or a purpose restriction being fulfilled, net assets with donor restrictions are reclassified to net assets without donor restrictions and reported in the statements of activities as net assets released from restrictions. Net assets released from restrictions for the year were for grants, scholarships, administrative fees, trustee bank fees and neighborhood investment program (NIP) fees. Net assets with donor restrictions also consist of the realized and unrealized gains or losses, interest and dividends earned by donor restricted endowment funds and the cash value of a life insurance policy that names the Foundation as the beneficiary. ADMINISTRATIVE FEES: The Foundation’s policy is to assess each fund maintained a monthly administrative fee calculated by multiplying the market value of each fund by the administrative fee rate. The rate was 0.07% and 0.05% for the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 respectively. These fees are used by the Foundation to pay for administrative costs incurred in maintaining the funds and managing the Foundation. The Foundation is able to waive the monthly administrative fee if management determines the fees are not needed for operations. Administrative fees for the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were $331,266 and $263,989 respectively. For financial statement purposes, the administrative fee income assessed by the Foundation for the funds is netted against the administrative fee expense recognized by the funds. These amounts net to zero. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES: The Foundation follows FASB ASC Topic 820 - Fair Value Measurements which introduces a framework for measuring fair value of certain assets and liabilities. FASB ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. FASB ASC Topic 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. INCOME TAXES: The Foundation is exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. The Foundation is generally no longer subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for fiscal years beginning before March 31, 2015.

Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) ENDOWMENT FUNDS: The Foundation’s endowment consists of individual donor-restricted funds established for a variety of purposes and four general unrestricted board-designated funds. Net assets of the endowment funds are classified and reported based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions. The board designated amounts are used to provide funding for the community grant program. ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS ADOPTED: In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-14, “Presentation of Financial Statements of Not-for-Profit Entities” (Topic 958). The ASU amends the current reporting model for nonprofit organizations and enhances their required disclosures. The major changes include: (1) requiring the presentation of only two classes of net assets now entitled “net assets without donor restrictions” and “net assets with donor restrictions”, (2) modifying the presentation of underwater endowment funds and related disclosures, (3) requiring the use of the placed in service approach to recognize the expirations of restrictions on gifts used to acquire or construction long-lived assets absent explicit donor stipulations otherwise (4) requiring that all nonprofits present an analysis of expenses by function and nature in either the statement of activities, a separate statement, or in the notes and disclose a summary of the allocation methods used to allocate costs, (5) requiring the disclosure of quantitative and qualitative information regarding liquidity and availability of resources, (6) presenting investment return net of external and direct internal investment expenses, and (7) modifying other financial statement reporting requirements and disclosures intended to increase the usefulness of nonprofit financial statements. The Foundation has adopted this ASU as of and for the year ended March 31, 2019. Note 3 Investments Investments, stated at fair market value at March 31, 2019 and 2018 include:

Accordingly, the Foundation may administer funds that have valuation deficiencies, and has adopted a policy suspending grants from funds if such a deficiency exists. At March 31, 2019 deficiencies of $115 existed in 1 donor restricted endowment fund which has a historical gift value of $10,725 and a current fair value of $10,610. Note 9 – Cash Surrender Value of Life Insurance The Foundation is the owner and beneficiary of a life insurance policy. The donor of the policy contributes the annual premiums to the Foundation, which in turn remits the premium to the life insurance company. Note 10 – Prior Year Summarized Comparative Information The statements of activities include certain prior year summarized comparative information in total but not by net asset class. Such information does not include sufficient detail to constitute a presentation in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, such information should be read in conjunction with the Foundation’s financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2018 of the prior year, from which the summarized information was derived.

Note 11 – Availability of Financial Assets The following reflects the Foundation’s financial assets as of March 31, 2019, reduced by amounts not available for general use because of contractual or donor-imposed restrictions within one year. Amounts already appropriated for expenditure within one year have not been subtracted as unavailable.

Financial assets $ 42,290,803 Less those unavailable for general expenditure within one year, due to: Contractual or donor-imposed restrictions Donor-restricted endowment funds (36,926,109) Pending endowment funds (78,715) Cash value of life insurance (29,500) Board designations: Long-term investing, primarily for community grant program (5,159,364) Financial assets available to meet cash needs for general expenditures within one year $ 97,115

The Foundation is supported by the administrative fees assessed to each endowment fund and contributions without restrictions received from donors. Income from donor-restricted endowments is restricted for specific purposes and, therefore, is not available for general expenditure. Though the Foundation could draw upon board designated funds in the event of financial distress or an immediate liquidity need resulting from events outside the normal course of operations, the intent of the Foundation is to continue to use the board designated funds to provide income for the community grant program. Note 12 – Subsequent Events The Foundation has evaluated subsequent events and transactions as of June 18, 2019, the date the financials were issued. No subsequent events or transactions had occurred that would have materially impacted the financial statements as presented.
