2021 FINANCIAL REPORT

YEARS

Dear Friends, Thank you for reviewing the 2021 financial report of your Community Foundation. I am pleased to share that we kicked off 2022 on a very strong foundation thanks to much growth in 2021. In addition to $4.2 million in new contributions, our total assets benefited from a 15.54% return on our investments and we began our 30th year with total assets of $41 million.

Considering the double-digit gains of 2021, followed by the market losses thus far in 2022, adherence to our primary investment objective is paramount. We understand the delicate balance between serving the needs of our community today while positioning ourselves well to address the needs of tomorrow. It is a balance we have maintained since 1992, and it is our commitment to you and our community.

Connecting people who care with causes that matter has been the centerpiece of our work for 30 years. As your Community Foundation, we dedicate the support that you and many others have placed with us for the care of our neighbors, now and forever, in Staunton, Waynesboro and the counties of Augusta, Highland and Nelson.

You are part of an amazing community of caring people. Thank you for continuing to place your trust in us.

With deepest appreciation,

Dan Layman, CEO
