COMMUNITY FOUNDATION OF NCW

MISSION Our mission is to grow, protect, and connect charitable gifts in support of strong communities.

Advancing philanthropy at all levels of giving. Whether you give your time or money, whether you are able to give big or small - every gift matters, every dollar counts. We want to build a culture of philanthropy in the region, where everyone feels they have something to give. Raising awareness of local charitable needs and giving opportunities. There are over 500 nonprofit organizations in Chelan, Douglas and Okanogan counties that are all working to improve, protect, and enhance their community. Each of their causes makes a difference in someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life. Managing the investments of our communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s charitable endowment. Our diverse portfolio is professionally managed and allows us to provide a safe, effective investment of your charitable dollars.

Dear Friends,

Mary C. Murphy, Chair, CFNCW Board of Trustees

I am so honored to serve as chair during the year of our 25th Anniversary. This year we called “Silver Linings”. The year of our silver anniversary was a time of real struggles for many people. The stock markets were down, a controversial election was looming; it had a lot of potential to be downright gloomy. But what we saw at the Community Foundation of NCW was different. People were still giving their time and money to our local nonprofit organizations. We received over $3.4 million in gifts and distributed over $2.6 million back into our communities. Our assets grew to $43 million. And through the trustee fund, we were able to award twenty-five $1,000 surprise grants to nonprofits across the region. We felt that these were silver linings to celebrate! As you review our 2012 Annual Report, I hope you get a sense of the dynamic and important work we focus on here at the foundation. Our primary goal is to improve the communities you live in, to leave behind a better place for our children and grandchildren, and to hopefully instill a culture of philanthropy that can also be passed down through generations to come.

COMMUNITY FOUNDATION OF NCW

Message from the Chair

We believe North Central Washington is one of the most beautiful places on earth, and we know that you do, too. Thank you to all of our donors who give generously, to our volunteers who give effortlessly, and to the nonprofit organizations who work tirelessly. We all share the same passion: to do our best to create silver linings everywhere we go. At the foundation, we couldn’t do that without you.

Mary C. Murphy, Chair, CFNCW Board of Trustees

CELEBRATING SILVER LININGS

SURPRISE $1,000 for 25 Nonprofits

To kick off our 25th Anniversary, the Board of Trustees decided to give away 25 $1,000 surprise grants to nonprofits across North Central Washington. We filled a hat with names of nonprofit agencies that had received a grant from the foundation within the last five years and were in good standing. We passed the hat around the board room and each trustee drew a name. We contacted each of the 25 agencies drawn and set up a time for “an interview”. But when we arrived with an oversized check Publisher’s Clearing House-style, the reactions ranged from overwhelming excitement to thankful tears. The grants were funded entirely by the Community Foundation’s Board of Trustees fund and could be used any way the organization determined.

Trustees gather behind Friends of the Pool Director Josephine Bristol as they accept their surprise grant. The pool provides a place for Twisp residents and visitors to play and cool off during the hot summer months.

The Merc Playhouse gets a solid foundation “For The Merc Playhouse, the surprise grant was truly a silver lining. It arrived just as our organization was gearing up for the launch of our capital campaign to purchase and renovate our building. Your grant allowed us to hire a consultant to help us create the campaign structure, articulate the case statement and determine timelines. Your funding allowed us the "luxury" of beginning the campaign with a more solid foundation.

New paint, lighting fixtures, and additional seating expand opportunities for the playhouse in Twisp.

Now, we are happy to report we not only raised enough money to buy the building, but we are in the midst of renovations which include adding 40 more seats. Our increased seating capacity helps create for us a more sustainable future because we can sell more tickets and be a more attractive rental facility.

Silver Lining Grants

So, you can see, your surprise grant will have positive repercussions for years to come. Thank you!” —The Merc Playhouse

It takes wheels to paddle at the Wenatchee Row & Paddle Club “The Silver Lining Grant we received was so amazingly meaningful. When we got the great news, we were already scheduling for the Fall portion of our Youth on Columbia program and had little funding for the bus transportation required by the school districts. This grant allowed us to pay the $1,500 of bus expenses billed by the various districts, allowing over 600 3rd-6th grade students to have this amazing experience. The Silver Lining Grant was an absolute surprise and an incredibly timely gift. From all of us – Thank You!” —Wenatchee Row & Paddle Club

LEADERSHIP

Foundation receives awards and recognition Woman of the Year and Apple Blossom Grand Marshal This year the Community Foundation’s Executive Director Beth Stipe received the Woman of the Year award at the annual Women’s Resource Center Gala. As she accepted the award, she told the group something she often says: “Anybody can be a philanthropist.” Beth received the award for her work supporting the Women’s Resource Center and other nonprofits throughout the region. Since her start with the foundation in 2003, the foundation’s assets have tripled and continue to grow.

From left to right: Women’s Resource Center Executive Director Phoebe Nelson, Beth Stipe, and Tracey Kasnic.

Another surprise recognition: the Community Foundation of NCW was named Grand Marshal of the Apple Blossom Festival parade, the oldest festival in Washington State. Historically given to an individual, this was the first time an organization has received the honor. Executive Director Beth Stipe and former Executive Director Ray Taylor rode in the vehicles that lead the parade as Grand Marshal. Trustees, staff, and their families followed in a float provided by Marson and Marson Lumber, owned by Board Member Ken Marson. It was a fun and memorable day for all at the foundation!

Counterclockwise from top: Former trustee Jane Hensel and Board Member Mary Lou Johnson wave to onlookers at the parade; Board Member Krista Beck with her husband Kevin and their son Blake; Executive Director Beth Stipe and former Executive Director Ray Taylor stand next to cars they will ride in that lead the parade as Grand Marshal. Apple Blossom is an 11-day festival in Wenatchee that began in 1919. It is the oldest major festival in Washington State. 6

Symphony in the Park - A gift to the community

Led by Director Nikolas Caoile, the allvolunteer, nonprofit Wenatchee Valley Symphony Orchestra played patriotic, American pieces at the Symphony in the Park event at Lincoln Park.

The Community Foundation hosted the first-ever outdoor symphony in the Wenatchee Valley on July 3rd at Lincoln Park. The program included a marchiachi performance by nationally renowned Mariachi Estrella de Mexico, ground-stomping beats by the Wenatchee High School Drumline, a beautiful Puccini aria by foundation scholarship recipient Stacia McRae, and a fantastic accordian piece by local business owner and community volutneer Mary Woods. For the main event, the Wenatchee Valley Symphony, led by Conductor Nikolas Caoile, played patriotic, American pieces to commemorate the forthcoming Independence Day holiday. The symphony ended with Tchaikovskyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 1812 Overture with fireworks bursting in air. Board member Lisa Day led the coordination of the event with help from trustees, staff, and other volunteers. This free event brought over 1,000 people together to enjoy music and celebrate community.

Alternative school gets students back to reading Since 1985, Westside High School has provided an alternative to mainstream high school that focuses on engaging, educating, and transforming students’ lives. This year the school received a $5,000 Regional Impact Grant for tutors to work with students on a pilot reading tutorial program. The program served 36 students who met 3 days a week and remained in the program until tests showed they were reading at grade level. Twelve students reached or exceeded program standards. Over half the students tested at 4th-6th grade reading level when they entered the program. “Now I understand there are rules for our language. I never thought I was smart, but I am understanding so much now and I am getting smart.” “Every time I write now, I think of the words and the rules for spelling. Before, I never cared if the words were spelled right.” The program exceeded expectations and is helping Westside change their culture to one where all students will read at grade level. The program will continue with some financial assistance from the Wenatchee Rotary Club.

When Osborne Elementary wrote their grant application to provide swim lessons for students, they expected about 40% of the student body would need lessons. They discovered 83% of students were unable to swim at a level to keep them safe in the water. The grant allowed 177 students to receive lessons. As a result of their success, the swim program now has community support to enable an on-going program. The school also held their first “School to Pool” triathlon where 75 students competed and raised $1,700 to help fund next year’s program. 9

Volunteers prepare food for the Free Community Dinner.

Rural community center is a space for everyone “One of the things we pride ourselves on is that we are able to offer this building to folks free of charge. Some examples are our monthly Free Community Dinner, monthly commodities distribution to local seniors, a meeting space for Tonasket Farmer’s Market...and other similar organizations. Last winter a young children’s playgroup formed and met every Wednesday [by donation]. We also give the building to various fundraising endeavors, such as benefits for needy individuals, at a reduced rate or free of charge. The grant funding we receive from CFNCW and others enable us to allow that. Just last month we opened up the building for a benefit event for a local man who needed help with his medical bills - the group was able to hand him $3,000 to assist his cause.” —C.River Jones, Exec.

NONPROFIT PRACTICES INSTITUTE

STRENGTH The Nonprofit Practices Institute (NPI) was established to provide capacity-building and professional development opportunities to help strenghten nonprofit organizations across the region. As part of our Community Grants Program and in partnership with the Icicle Fund, NPI offers trainings, workshops, seminars, and other learning and networking opportunities tailored specifically to the needs and wants of our local nonprofits. We believe that strengthening nonprofits - whether it be through fundraising, board engagement, technology, strategic planning, or other capacities - helps them effectively fulfill their missions that improve and enhance our communities.

Advanced Fundraising Program With the help from a generous grant from Philanthropy Northwest, the Nonprofit Practices Institute offered an Advanced Fundraising Program to 33 individuals from nonprofits in Chelan, Douglas, and Okanogan counties. Taught by Susan Howlett, the program was spread out over four months with 2-day back to back sessions split between Twisp, Leavenworth, and Wenatchee and was modeled after University of Washington’s Fundraising Program, where Susan served as faculty for 20 years. Participants learned fundraising strategies based on research and best practices, how to optimize their communications and marketing efforts, and the power of relationships.

Student Comments: “Taking this class has been a life changing experience.” “I have a lot of hope and joy for our organization.” “I came in running on empty and I am going out on a full tank.” “This class solidified the fact that I am not an island.” “I am so excited to see the nonprofit community in NCW evolving together thanks to this class.” “You have taught me that there is abundance for every single one of us.” “We are all about relationships, we will work on making those connections at the heart of what we do.” “Since I started this class we have written three grants and received support from all three.” AFP students together on their last day of class. 16

Each year the Community Foundation and the Icicle Fund host a complimentary dinner at the Sleeping Lady Resort in Leavenworth and Sun Mountain Lodge in Winthrop to celebrate and recognize the commitment and dedication of our region’s volunteer board members. We bring special guests to each dinner to motivate, inspire, and recharge. The day following the dinner, we offer a workshop with topics that provide effective, innovative ideas and strategies that board members can use to help propel their nonprofit’s mission.

SLEEPING LADY RESORT, LEAVENWORTH Special Guest Michael Shadow of Shadow & Associates spoke to over 100 volunteers that attended the dinner. Known to many as “The Sultan of Suave” or “The Godfather of Glib”, Michael shared his communication tricks on how to understand their audience and tell compelling stories about the impacts their missions are making in our communities.

Part of the mission for the Nonprofit Practices Institute is to provide opportunities that strenthen and support our nonprofit community. In 2012, we created new services for nonprofits to collaborate and connect. In our rural communities, organizations are often inviting the same audience to attend their fundraising and community events. Through the NCW Community Calendar, these agenices can better plan their events to maximize attendance, and the public has greater opportunities to enjoy and support several causes. We also established an NCW Nonprofits email listserv, giving nonprofits the opportunity to connect with each other and share news, ideas, resources, and tools specific to our nonprofit region.

Fundraising Ethics In July, the Washington Secretary of Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office offered a course on fundraising ethics facilitated by Dr. Stuart Grover. The course provided participants with insights on how to spot unethical behavior, and how to keep away from it, the different aspects of philanthropy versus transaction, good fundraising skills, vision statements, and disclosures.

Participants at the workshop held at Wenatchee Valley College.

Dr. Goverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s casual, humorous, and intellectual style made the session interesting and dynamic. He is former CEO of The Colling Group, author, and a frequent speaker at conferences across Washington State.

I would like to begin a partnership between my students and the community so students can connect with local agriculturalists and gain from their knowledge and expertise.

GENE “SARGE” HUBER BAND SCHOLARSHIP “Band and music mean so much to me. I remember hearing about Sarge in the 7th grade at his memorial honor band festival. I found myself in a swell of satisfaction knowing that I was part of his legacy. And now, with this scholarship, I am extremely honored to carry on a little more of that legacy. I want to work to satisy both his and Mr. Kovach’s standards, and this scholarship is the first sign that I am headed in the right direction.”

VIRGIL V. AND PEARL E. GUSTIN SCHOLARSHIP “Thank you so much for your generous scholarship. This money will help me pay for tuition at Eastern Washington University. College has always been a ‘must have’ in my family, they have taught us kids that through a little hard work and determination most all things are possible. As I have graduated high school and now moving on to college I am slowly realizing that my wise parents were right, it was the nights staying up till all hours of the morning and finishing my homework and earning good grades that have gotten me this far.”

FAMILY OF FUNDS

INVESTMENT

Establish a fund with your Community Foundation Donors that come to the Community Foundation want to make a difference in their community with maximum benefits. We help them give easily, effectively, and long term. Individuals, families, businesses, and private foundations can establish a fund with a minimum of $5,000 ($10,000 for scholarship funds). Contributions can be made at any time, adding gifts when it’s to your advantage. It’s quick and easy to establish a fund with cash, stock, or even real estate. And our administrative fee is just 1%. We have several types of flexible giving options and can tailor a charitable program for you based on your philanthropic interests. We also have planned giving options that will enable you to leave a legacy.

Agency Fund

Donor Advised Fund

Designated Fund

Fund for the Future

Established by an agency in support of that agency, the endowment protects the principal of the fund and disburses regular income to an organization while allowing the funds to be professionally managed.

Supports specific charities selected by the donor during their lifetime and beyond.

Field of Interest Fund

Donors specify a field of interest such as arts, children's program, environmental education, etc. but leaves the selection of grant recipients to CFNCW. This fund provides recognition of the donor in their particular area of interest, but allows support for a variety of organizations in that field.

Allows a donor (or designee) to serve as advisor to recommend grants from the fund. The donor becomes an active participant with identifying needs and grantmaking.

Provides support for ongoing administrative needs of CFNCW, helping keep our fees low and providing maximum charitable benefit for our donors and the community.

Scholarship Fund

Enables donors to provide scholarships for students seeking post-secondary education. A scholarship committee (that can involve the donor) selects recipients based upon criteria established by the donor.

Not having to spend hours managing our funds also allows us to have more time to focus on our mission of raising more funding to support Wenatchee Valley College students and programs. It has been a wonderful partnership for us!“ —Stacey Lockhart, executive director, WVC Foundation

Bob “Watty” Watson Memorial Fund Every September, Dottie Watson holds a golf tournament to raise money in memory of her beloved husband, Bob. Dottie and Bob met in Alaska and shared a fun, active life playing softball, handball, and golf and enjoyed traveling to warm, sunny places. Bob was kind, fun, and well respected by his friends and peers for his values and ethics and was a gifted athlete. He graduated from Wenatchee High School in 1970 and proposed to Dottie on Skyline Drive; they were married in June 1980.

“Life is good today!” —Bob “Watty” Watson

In September 2010, Bob passed away unexpectedly at the young age of 57. His legacy and love of sports lives on through the gifts Dottie is able to make from the memorial fund. In its first year, the fund gave to support uniforms and equipment for Wenatchee High School baseball and football teams and helped secure the ScoutA-Vista property for youth to enjoy for years to come.

Earl and Barbara Tilly

Donor Advised Fund, Donor Designated Fund: Boy Scout Camp To Earl Tilly, living in North Central Washington is “like an old pair of slippers.” Earl and Barbara have family and many friends in the area, they love the history, the outdoor recreation, the four seasons, and the beautiful mountains.

Barbara and Earl Tilly are longtime friends of the foundation and servers of their community. Barbara served as a trustee at the foundation for 9 years. Barbara works on several initiatives to help the homeless, and is part of a program that delivers backpacks with essential items to schools for children in need. Earl has served on the state legislature, helped establish Wenatchee’s Habitat for Humanity, and was Mayor of Wenatchee from 1994 to 1999.

The Tilly’s have been giving back to their communities since childhood. “When I was a child,” shared Barbara, “for every dollar I earned I had to give 10 cents to the church, save 10 cents for college, and the 80 cents left I could spend.” Earl remembers his first experience tithing at his church and community work as a Boy Scout. Both have a long history of serving on boards, creating new initiatives, and financially supporting the causes they believe in. Their Donor Designated Fund managed by the foundation will allow ongoing support for the local Boy Scout Camp that is near to Earl’s heart - forever. 27

GROWTH

In 1986, the Community Foundation of NCW was created from the sale of assets by Chelan County Medical Services, a nonprofit health care service. Approximately $2.1 million was transferred to form the foundation. Since then, the foundation has seen growth nearly every year, despite recessions and economic setbacks. Our North Central Washington communities are full of compassionate individuals and organizations that believe in philanthropy and making our part of the world the best place to live. We are proud and honored to work with donors and noprofit agencies in helping them maximize their giving potential and community impact.

Your gift is more than just a present. It’s the future. We don’t know what our region’s needs will be 10, 20, or 50 years from now, but having the resources necessary to meet them will define our communities. YOU can make that difference. With your gift, the Community Foundation of NCW can help our nonprofit agencies feed the hungry, shelter the homeless, conquer illerteracy, protect our environment, instill art and music culture, and improve our communities for generations to come. Visit www.cfncwgift.org to learn about planned giving, or contact us for an appointment.
