ANNUAL REPORT

2014

Robert Finke | Chairman of the Board

I have been privileged to serve as chairman of the Board of Directors of the Chicago Horticultural Society since 2012, and 2015 is a particularly exciting year as the Society celebrates its 125th anniversary. The Chicago Botanic Garden’s founders were leaders of the Society that created the Garden we know and love today, and the Society continues to manage the Garden in partnership with the Forest Preserves of Cook County, which owns the land the Garden occupies and provides critical annual operating support for which we are grateful.

Throughout the decades since the Garden opened in 1972, meticulous planning—including financial—has been essential to keeping our Garden healthy. In early 2010 the Garden introduced “Keep Growing,” a ten-year strategic plan that guides the Garden’s work in every way.

As we enter the second half of our strategic plan, the Garden is flourishing.

Total funds raised in 2014 were up nearly $10 million from 2013, to $39.6 million. We completed an addition to the North Branch Trail and renovated the Garden View Café.

Other capital projects moved forward as the Garden began work last July on a plant production nursery for the Kris Jarantoski Campus and then broke ground for the Regenstein Foundation Learning Campus in April 2015.

We thank the many Garden friends whose contributions have allowed us to move toward achieving the goals of the strategic plan. And we thank those who tirelessly work or volunteer at the Garden, or who advocate for the Garden by serving on one of its boards. They all were key to making 2014 the Garden’s best year in its history.

To achieve the Keep Growing strategic plan, we must sustain momentum across all aspects of the Chicago Botanic Garden and commit to completing the plan’s goals. In June 2013, the Board of Directors unanimously approved Plants for Life 2020, a campaign to raise $90 million to complete the objectives of the strategic plan—including its two most important projects, the Kris Jarantoski Campus and the Regenstein Foundation Learning Campus.

By replacing aging and inefficient plant facilities, the Kris Jarantoski Campus will enable the Garden to maintain and even redefine the horticultural excellence for which it is known.

The updated facility will include a garden designed by world-renowned landscape architect Peter Wirtz, whose innovative landscape design will unite the Garden’s south end—including the plant production facilities and the Daniel F. and Ada L. Rice Plant Conservation Science Center—with Evening Island and the Dixon Prairie. It will also balance the Regenstein Foundation Learning Campus on the Garden’s north end.

With your help, we can meet the goals of Plants for Life 2020. We are just $13.5 million shy.

As we continue to raise funds to complete these remaining capital projects, the Garden will be most grateful for any support you may be able to provide.

We strive every day to honor the vision of the Chicago Horticultural Society to create an institution second to none in the world in its combination of display gardens, science and research, education, and programs for all of the Garden’s diverse constituents throughout Cook County and beyond. As we focus on the second half of our Keep Growing strategic plan, we see far beyond it, to a time when future generations of our families—and yours— will cherish the Garden and benefit from all we do.

With gratitude and warm regards,

Robert Finke Chairman of the Board

Sophia Shaw | President & CEO Five years ago, the Chicago Botanic Garden adopted a new ten-year strategic plan, “Keep Growing,” with an aim to build upon our strengths and mature as a leader of education, science, urban agriculture, and horticultural therapy. The plan was detailed, thoughtful, and ambitious. To reflect the goals of the strategic plan, two years ago we adopted a new mission statement: We cultivate the power of plants to sustain and enrich life.

Midway through, what have we accomplished?

Where are we heading?

The Garden’s already strong education and science programs have grown significantly since the Keep Growing strategic plan was launched in early 2010. In the last five years we have realized the promise embodied in the Chicago Botanic Garden’s Daniel F. and Ada L. Rice Plant Conservation Science Center, which opened in 2009 and supports more than 200 scientists, graduate students, and interns. This year, the first Ph.D. candidates received their diplomas through the Garden’s joint graduate program in plant biology and conservation with Northwestern University; the program also has conferred more than 50 master’s degrees since it began ten years ago. Last year, the Garden received $4.8 million in new research grants; altogether, research activity was supported by 42 grants whose total awards reached nearly $13 million.

The Garden’s Science Career Continuum, comprising innovative plant-based programs for students in middle school through doctoral studies, has continued to grow during the first half of the strategic plan. In 2014, we celebrated the 20-year anniversary of Continuum

component College First with a special event reuniting graduates of the mentoring program. Many of them were the first in their families to attend college and enter the fields of science, education, or community leadership. To date, College First and Science First—another Continuum program—have served more than 500 students.

The Continuum will flourish even more when the Regenstein Foundation Learning Campus, including a new Education Center and Garden, opens in 2016. The Learning Campus and the Kris Jarantoski Campus are the two most important capital projects of the strategic plan. In July 2014 we broke ground for the plant production nursery on the Jarantoski Campus; this year, the Garden reached another milestone when we broke ground for the Regenstein Foundation Learning Campus on April 23. Representing the culmination of a new direction in plant-based education for the Chicago Botanic Garden, the Learning Campus cuts across the areas of education, science, horticulture, and visitor experience, and will provide a place of environmental learning unlike any other—inspiring, teaching, and training nature-lovers and the next generation of plant scientists, educators, and conservationists.

Each year, more visitors come to the Chicago Botanic Garden. In 2014, for the second year in a row, record-setting attendance exceeded more than one million people. Visitors flocked to the Garden for its spectacular horticulture throughout 26 distinct gardens and four natural areas, for a wide array of classes and camps, for therapy, and for compelling programs and exhibitions. More than 25,000 people attended the Garden’s first Orchid Show in 2014, an exhibition of more than 10,000 orchids that offered a welcome respite during the coldest days of winter. This number grew in 2015. Veterans, children on the autism spectrum, and others with challenges spent time in the Buehler Enabling Garden with horticultural therapists. Some Garden visitors arrived via the North Branch Trail addition

completed in 2014 for bike riders, visitors in wheelchairs, and pedestrians, and thousands of people enjoyed the renovated Garden View Café, also completed last year. Outside as well as within the Garden, people benefitted from our horticultural therapy and urban agriculture programs. Last year, through its Windy City Harvest program, the Garden started a new farm in the Austin neighborhood of Chicago—among the city’s more challenged—for the PCC Austin Family Health Center.

The Chicago Botanic Garden has come incredibly far—since the Keep Growing strategic plan began, certainly, but especially since its founding by the Chicago Horticultural Society,

which has continued to manage the Garden since it opened to the public in 1972. This year we are celebrating the Society’s 125th anniversary with special exhibitions, presentations, and a book, Chicago and Its Botanic Garden: The Chicago Horticultural Society at 125.

As we forge into the next half of our strategic plan, I am confident the Chicago Botanic Garden will continue to exemplify the highest standards of excellence in all that we do, nurturing all whom we serve.

On behalf of the Chicago Botanic Garden,

Executive Summary Expanded programs and amenities, and people’s growing need to engage with nature, attracted a record number of visitors to the Chicago Botanic Garden for the sixth consecutive year in 2014. For the second time in its 42-year history, the Garden welcomed more than one million visitors, and virtually all of the Garden’s revenue-producing activities exceeded the 2013 results. This growth reflects continued progress toward the goals set forth in the Garden’s 2010–2020 strategic plan, “Keep Growing.”

Operating Results The Garden ended 2014 with an operating surplus of $589,000, following a surplus of $681,000 in 2013. Earned revenue from members, visitor operations, and education reached nearly $10 million for the second year in a row. Total operating revenue increased by $1.1 million, or 3 percent, to $33.1 million in 2014. Surplus funds are added to working capital and maintenance reserves.

Change in Net Assets The Garden’s statement of financial position reflects an increase in net assets of 15 percent to $178.5 million in 2014 from $154.9 million at the end of 2013. The increase was due largely to strong operating and record fundraising results, as well as the performance of the institutional investments noted previously. The Garden’s endowment rose by nearly $6 million to $85.5 million in 2014.

Summary Each year, the Chicago Botanic Garden engages more people through its beauty and the strength of its programs. In 2014, Garden leadership continued to hone the Garden’s focus and services to address the diverse needs of its customers and to respond to the challenges of our times. The Garden’s relevance is growing in an era when people seek comfort and solutions across a wide range of needs, such as in conservation science, education, food security, urban agriculture jobs training, wellness, veterans’ programs, and climate change awareness, and is reflected in its mission statement: We cultivate the power of plants to sustain and enrich life. With the support of its board, staff, volunteers, members, visitors, donors, and the Forest Preserves of Cook County, the Garden will continue to honor the ideals upon which its foundation was established, evolve as a public institution and recognized leader in plant conservation education and research, and enhance its standing as one of the leading botanic gardens of the world.
