THE CHAIRPERSON’S MESSAGE

D

t’s a rewarding time to be in Cleveland. All the hard work that’s been done in this community over the past decade is beginning to pay off. Projects long on the drawing boards are finally being realized.

Shovels are biting into the ground, ribbons being cut. Most telling of all, emissaries from other cities around the country are calling—in some cases travelling here themselves—to find out how we did it. □

Of course there

is still much to be done if Cleveland is going to realize its full potential. ■

We

had also better have a pretty good idea of where we’re going. In that spirit, The Cleveland Foundation has been taking a fresh look at its mission, priorities and strategic objectives on a number of fronts. This was, after all, what the creators of The Cleveland Foundation envisioned: a permanent but highly flexible trust whose changing board of citizen overseers would enable it to keep abreast of changing times and newly emerging needs.

H

Today some of those needs are of a magnitude that requires a

concentration of resources and staff time. And so, as we reaffirm the Foundation’s historic mission—to improve the quality of life of all citizens of Greater Cleveland by using funds entrusted to its stewardship—we will be looking for ways to have a substantial, positive impact on selected problems and opportunities of greatest concern to the community. Meanwhile, through our support of a wide range of worthwhile activities and organizations, we will continue to strengthen the daily life and resources of this community. ■

the Foundation considers proposals in the six

program areas described in this report, two concerns that cut across categories will be kept constantly in mind: our commitment to improving the prospects of our disadvantaged youth, and our determination to increase access and participation of women and minorities in Greater Cleveland’s institutions and opportunities. ■ In recent years this community has invested a great deal of time and money in the development of its physical resources, and that has been crucial to stimulating economic development. But it is equally important that we invest with the same fervor in Cleveland’s greatest

resource—our people. Particularly our youth, who are, after all, the future. ■ And so we have also reaffirmed the Foundation’s commitments to large-scale, long-term initiatives aimed at strengthening the capacity of the Cleveland Public Schools to fulfill its mission, as well as to similar initiatives focusing on revitalizing the city's neighborhoods and full development of the lakefront as a community asset. And we will continue to seek opportunities to intervene on behalf of the abused, the homeless and the chronically poor. ■ Strategic priorities within individual program areas have also been identified, and some of these are described in the pages that follow. Part of this process is an ongoing dialogue with a wide range Bouncing back: Spectacular Tower City Center, incorporating the landmark Terminal Tower, is symbolic of the reinvestment currently transforming downtown Cleveland.

of community leaders and institutions, as well as with persons who deal with Greater Cleveland’s many problems and challenges daily on the “front lines. ” Their perspective is indispensable to the fulfillment of our mission as a community foundation. ■ Its founders saw The Cleveland Foundation as an independent resource, free from politics and other pressures, which would be used to support the community’s best thinking on a great variety of fronts, a permanent endowment fund, in short, for facilitating the development of innovative programs by Cleveland's not-for-profit sector, that critical network of agencies and institutions grappling with so many of the issues we face as a community. ■ Last year the Foundation’s Distribution Committee authorized more than $25 million in grants, with another I j million in program-related investments, a way of using a portion of our

assets to address high priority program interests. ■ Because the Foundation is blessed with large, flexible resources, and because the energies of its professional staff are not taken up with the daily problems of running a particular program, or focused on one specific agenda, the Foundation can afford to take the long view—and the perspective of the larger community.

■

As a result, it has come to play other roles such as those of convenor

and educator around key community issues, coordinator of certain collaborative projects, and provider of services to smaller funders looking to practice more effective philanthropy. Indeed, as the community’s largest foundation, we find ourselves increasingly thrust into a leadership role on important issues, a sobering responsibility that demands an even greater thoroughness of the Foundation’s staff and Distribution Committee in each new series of deliberations—even as the times cry out for action. ■ Of course none of this would be possible without the extraordinary generosity and vision of the Foundation’s many donors. Last year new gifts received amounted to $9-5 million, bringing the combined assets of The Cleveland Foundation as of December S I to a total of $579-9 million. Though most

were made by individuals wishing to share some part of their life’s achievement with the community that has been their home, we are pleased to note the establishment of a major fund by the Ameritech Corporation and its local subsidiary Ohio Bell, long an important presence on the Greater Cleveland scene. ■ Praise, too, for the tremendous job done by the Foundation’s trustee banks—Ameritrust Company, NA; BANK ONE, CLEVELAND, NA; Huntington National Bank; National City Bank; and Society National Bank—in the building and management of the Foundation’s assets. And we welcome into that proud company First National Bank of Ohio, whose president and chief executive officer, Howard L. Flood, has taken his place on the Trustees Committee. M If Cleveland has shown itself as rich in resourcefulness as it is in generosity of spirit, the last ten years have also revealed it to be rich in leadership. We’ve been blessed with a number of exceptional individuals who have given prodigiously of their time and energy to the task of turning this city around. ■ If Cleveland is going to meet the wide array of challenges that confront us, it is going to take more than money. It ’s going to take an army of volunteers to make all those projects go—and the kind of commitment we’ve seen in such organizations as the Greater Cleveland Roundtable, the Greater Cleveland Growth Association, Cleveland Tomorrow, United Way, and the community development corporations that are proving so pivotal in the recovery of many neighborhoods. ■ I might also have named the 11 citizens who put in so many hours on the Distribution Committee of The Cleveland Foundation, providing the guidance necessary to keep the Foundation focused on its mission and objectives. We’re grateful for the leadership of Dick Pogue and Brad Jones, who completed their service last year, and extend a warm welcome to Annie Lewis Garda and Russ Gifford, appointed to the Committee this past summer. ■ I look forward to working with this bright and energetic crop of leaders, and with the

THE DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE nniversaries are always an occasion for reflection. Especially the big ones. Institutions are no different from individuals in this, for, in a way, institutions are people. They begin with somebody’s dream, they exist only insofar as human beings, acting in concert, can make that dream reality. ■

The Cleveland Foundation was such a dream once. Since

1914, thanks to a great many generous and dedicated individuals, it has also been a reality: a trust for all time, supported by and for the people of Greater Cleveland. ■ And so the Foundation’s seventy-fifth birthday last year was an occasion for celebration, but also for taking stock of all that Clevelanders have been able to accomplish through this most ingenious and flexible of instruments. Many thoughtful individuals, through their gifts, have found a way to have a continuing impact for the good on their community, a way to turn the achievement of a lifetime into a lasting legacy. Others have come to the Foundation with imaginative programs and found the resources to test out those ideas. And the entire community has been the beneficiary. ■

Of course many other Cleveland institutions have also played

important parts in the life of this community—several of them established in that same extraordinary decade early in this century that gave birth to the Foundation. These include the Interchurch Council of Greater Cleveland (1911); the Federation for Charity and Philanthropy (1915), which evolved into United Way Services and the Federation for Community Planning; Case Western Reserve University’s now Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences (1916); and Catholic Charities (1916). Not to mention The Cleveland Music School Settlement (1911), The City Club (1912), Karamu House (1915), the Cleveland Play House (1916), the Museums of Art (1916) and Natural History (1920), and our world-famous Cleveland Orchestra (1918). ■

With such an

astonishing lineup of seventy-fifth birthdays being celebrated here over the next few years, one cannot help but reflect on the vital role the so-called independent sector has come to play in all of our lives. How much poorer would this community be, how much less able to deal with a whole variety

5

of challenges, without these remarkable institutions and the many others that enrich and strengthen our community life? ■ All of these vital not-for-profit entities have two other things in common, too. The gifts of time and money of many generous, civic-minded people. Without that continuing support, and tremendous volunteer effort, all of them would still be only dreams. ■ Of the $115 billion given annually to America's not-for-profit institutions, fully 90 percent comes from individuals. It is people, in other words, who make the difference. ■ But is our enormous potential being realized? ■ In Northern Ohio, charitable giving amounts to barely 2.3 percent of household income. And fewer than two-thirds of the area's citizens volunteered their time for any activity at all last year. On average, only 1.4 hours per week are devoted to volunteering in Northern Ohio. ■ It is with the hope of improving these statistics that The Cleveland Foundation and many other area nonprofit institutions are supporting a regional campaign known as Northern Ohio Gives. Its slogan, “ Give 5," urges citizens to give 5 percent of their income, and five volunteer hours a week, to the causes of their choice. Any causes. The point is to consider what a difference such a commitment would make in a community like Greater Cleveland. How much more could be accomplished with that level of support. ■ For needs, too, are growing, and the challenges are profound.

The organizations that make up Greater Cleveland’s independent sector, the sector that depends so heavily on volunteer support and philanthropic funding, are being asked to take on new and more complex roles as we enter upon the Nineties, a critical period in the life of this community. Rehabilitating a few hundred houses a year presented one kind of challenge, rehabbing several thousand—with all of the logistics and transactions that entails—will present quite another. So will moving from a relative handful of parents engaged in the improvement of our Cleveland Public Schools to hundreds of parents playing meaningful roles. ■ Yet these are precisely the kinds of things that are going to have to happen. ■ An important key to meaningful progress on these and other fronts will be concerted action. Individuals and groups, nonprofit institutions and corporations, universities and labor unions, churches and banking institutions, foundations and governmental bodies at all levels will need to come together in a spirit of cooperation if communities like Cleveland are going to find the strategies to deal with poverty or educational reform. ■ Indeed, in activist circles around the nation and throughout the independent sector, the Nineties are already being called the Decade of Collaboration. ■ Here in Greater Cleveland, some promising new partnerships are already in place. Still others must be forged as we attempt to deal with such emerging issues as solid waste disposal and the environment, which cut across jurisdictions. Communities can no longer afford to think

6

and act as though they were insular villages. The collaborations of the Nineties must be founded on the recognition that communities that share resources or liabilities are connected, and that different arenas within a community like Greater Cleveland do have an impact on one another—schools on our economic competitiveness, the availability of decent housing on our tax base, and of adequate transportation systems on the ability of inner-city poor to connect with jobs. ■ A crucial partner in many of these efforts will be the State of Ohio, which has emerged as a key player during the past decade in such areas as education and economic development. Columbus is playing as important a part as Washington these days on several fronts, and the critical character of that involvement is only going to grow.

■

Finally, there will be a need for even more dialogue around the choices

facing us as a community, more homework done before action is taken, and a process developed for shaping a shared agenda and community-wide strategies all of the stakeholders can get behind. ■

The Cleveland Foundation

stands ready to play its part. And let me take this occasion to say that I feel fortunate, as we approach the many challenges ahead, to have the invaluable collaboration and support of a strong Distribution Committee Pulling together: 240 bouses were made liveable again in 1989 through the collaboration of neighborhood groups, area businesses, the funding community, the City, and the State of Ohio.

under the leadership of Jack Dwyer. The Foundation is also blessed with a talented staff whose members bring to their multi-faceted work a wide range of expertise. We will particularly miss Lois Weber, whose retirement last year ended 21 consecutive years of service to the Foundation. ■

There are

many individuals like Lois whose quiet contributions to the work of a foundation or other organization struggling to make a difference may never be celebrated by the media. But, in the end, the progress of a community depends on such persons. ■ In the end it is people who turn dreams into reality.

Finding ways to strengthen and en­ hance the community’s ability to help disadvantaged youth achieve their full potential continues to be a major focus of the Foundation’s grantmaking in the area of Social Services. Finding ways to help parents play a more constructive role in their children’s education and devel­ opment into healthy and mature adults is another. The two came together in 1989 in a number of imaginative programs which won funding from the Foundation. ■ Last year’s largest grant in Social Services, an award of 1201,854 over three years to the Positive Education Pro­ gram (PEP), will train the parents of some 112 three- and four-year-olds exhibiting behavioral problems to manage their children’s behavior and teach them basic reasoning and cop­ ing skills. As each six-month “ class” of parents graduates, they will pay back six months of service at one of the Early Intervention Centers (developed with Cleveland Foundation funding in the late ’70s) training a new set of parents.

CULTURAL AFFAIRS

The arts nourish and enrich the quality of life for all people in Greater Cleveland culturally, intellec­ tually, socially and spiritually. And, because they enrich the quality of life, they also contribute significantly to the area’s ability to attract and retain talented people. To help maintain—and foster—a community cultural life of high artistic quality and rich diversity, The Cleveland Foundation last year made a number of significant grants to major and promising smaller organizations.

■ Funding helped underwrite three world premieres at the Cleveland Play House, Great Lakes Theater Festival’s stunning production of Chekhov’s The Sea Gull, and Ohio Ballet’s lovely Dark Elegies by Anthony Tudor. Cleveland Ballet mounted the late Jose Limon’s Moor’s Pavane and The Lesson, a riveting dance-drama after Ionesco by Flem­ ming Flindt, the former artistic director of the Royal Danish Ballet

gallery space in the Cleveland Play House Complex, a more visible and spacious facility whose cross-over audience potential is already paying off. ■ Continued support for the Cleveland Arts Consortium, a two-year-old coalition of 21 area museums, visual arts and perform­ ing arts organizations formed with Cleveland Foundation funding and technical support to implement mutu­ ally beneficial activities, mounted a number of collaborative efforts in 1989. Among them: Bravo Cleveland!, a regional marketing effort; A Week of Premieres; two major promotional efforts aimed at tourists and business travellers; the develop­ ment of a master mailing list of over 14,000 group sales prospects; and Kids’ Cove—a wonderful blend of fun and culture created by all 21 member organizations for last summer’s North Coast Harbor Expo.

In the works: a children’s guide to Cleveland’s cultural institutions, a survey of existing programs aimed at underserved populations and school children, and a three-year planning calendar to generate more cooperative programming.

HEALTH £

) The Foundation has long been inter­ ested in improving the quality of health care available for the aged of Greater Cleveland. In 1989 several grants were made in support of programs dealing with this issue—or rather with a set of issues involved in caring for the elderly. ■ One of these is the increasingly wide­ spread use of physical restraints in nursing homes (up from 25 to 40 percent since the mid-’70s). Recent studies, however, have shown that tying the residents to beds or chairs does not lead to a reduction in injuries caused by falls but may actually increase frustration and dis­ orientation. Cleveland Foundation funding is currently underwriting staff training at Menorah Park and Margaret Wagner House to make possible the reduction of restraint use at those two Cleveland-area nursing homes.

The funds will also be used to study the impact of restraint reduction on staff workload and patient outcome.

EDUCATION

The sharp decline in the numbers of minority students attending college during the early 1980s posed one of the most distressing issues in higher education. For, with more and more minority youths living in poverty, the best hope for escaping that fate—a college degree—seemed to be receding ever further from their grasp. Fortunately, that trend is beginning to reverse itself thanks to a welter of special efforts around the nation. ■

Here in Cleveland,

alarmed by a 1986 survey of minority participation in higher education, and desirous of playing a more construc­ tive role with regard to this issue, the Foundation’s staff and Distribution Committee set out first to educate themselves. This process, which in­ cluded consultations with national authorities in the field as well as the presidents of eight area colleges and universities, led to the adoption last June of guidelines for developing and evaluating proposals aimed at the recruitment—and retention—of minor­ ity students. Six-figure, multi-year grants were made to four area institutions in support of such pro­ grams. The Foundation also joined with a national funder, the Ford Foundation, to design and launch an experimental local effort to expand the available pool of minority teach­ ers as an important means of connect­ ing minority youths to education and the professions. ■ Other grants last year went to strengthen the training of tomorrow’s managers—in both the

business (see Special Purpose Funds section below) and nonprofit sectors.

And this summer a four-day seminar coordinated by John Carroll Univer­ sity will expose some 60 business faculty members from around the state to national experts in the field of ethics, preparing them to teach ethical issues in functional business courses and serve as resource persons for their own institutions.

CIVIC AFFAIRS

If revitalized neighborhoods are essential to the city’s long-term recov­ ery, bringing homeownership within reach of more moderate-income families is critical to that effort. So The Cleveland Foundation’s com­ mitment to the former has led to its funding a number of programs de­ signed to do precisely that. ■ In 1989 the Foundation joined with the Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) and George Gund Founda­ tion to establish a revolving $500,000 working capital pool to be used by the Cleveland Housing Network (CHN) to buy and repair deteriorating homes. Under CHN’s innovative Homeward program, moderate-income families are then enabled to purchase these homes with the help of $2.8 million set aside for low-interest first-mortgage loans by the State of Ohio. ■ The Foundation is also funding programs located in specific neighborhoods, such as Crossroads Development Corporation’s work in the Archwood-Denison area on the city’s southwest side. Technical assis­ tance in negotiating loans and cutting through bureaucratic red tape—as

ECONOMIC DEVEIOPMENT

As Cleveland’s central business district continued to prosper, the Foundation expanded its grantmaking in eco­ nomic development to more actively attend to the needs of minorities and women and to neighborhoodfocused development. Two programs funded last year reflect these concerns. ■ The Commission on Catholic Community Action’s small business support center located in the St. Clair-Superior neighborhood, counsels interested persons and puts them in touch one-on-one with volun­ teers (400-500 in all) who possess a range of business skills and experi­ ences. Besides helping pay for Center staffing, the Foundation’s grant is helping underwrite a collaborative effort between the Center and other neighborhood organizations to devise a coherent strategy for economic development in the area. A second grant is supporting the County’s Minority Business Development Pro­ gram to aid in recruiting trainees among the area’s predominantly black, Hispanic and Asian communi­ ties. ■ Other recent grants link ways of dealing with important issues such as solid waste disposal with the creation of new jobs, particularly at the entry level. The Cleveland Recy­ cling Center is using a grant to expand its operation, while a study has been commissioned to explore the feasibility of employing up to 100 unskilled or semi-skilled persons to turn plastic waste into marketable items such as traffic cones and barricades. ■ On the development front, the Foundation has made major

FUNDS OF THE CLEVELAND FOUNDATION The community foundation is as simple a concept as it is ingenious.

It is a means by which those with a common commitment to a commu­ nity’s well-being can contribute to building a permanent and substantial pool of funds, the income from which is used to meet the changing needs of a community by supporting its best ideas. ■ Last year, using the income earned from its combined assets, The Cleveland Foundation was able to make 824 grants totaling $25 million. A full list of those grants, along with brief descriptions of the programs funded, is found in this annual report.

And it brings the satisfaction of knowing that one’s accumulated assets will continue to do good and help to shape the destiny of this community for years to come.

But many leave their gifts with maximum flexibility—enabling the Foundation to meet unforeseen challenges with resources and imagination.
