SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY CHAMPION: CLEVELAND CLINIC

RISING TO THE CHALLENGE Charlie Shor’s generosity supports epilepsy research and a new building for Cleveland Clinic’s Neurological Institute

By ELIZABETH MISSON Cleveland Clinic

C

that perhaps stress was a contributing factor to his seizures. Then he met Dr. Imad Najm of Cleveland Clinic. They worked together on a personalized treatment plan that involved not only some medication, but also sleep apnea treatment and lifestyle modifications, including diet and managing triggers for stress.

Today, Shor typically only has one seizure per year. He’s thankful for the progress he has made with the help of Cleveland Clinic, but he knows the fight against epilepsy doesn’t end with him. That’s why he has committed $5.5 million to fund research.

“Many people are working on medication and surgeries for epilepsy,” Shor told Dr. Najm. “Would you be willing to work on getting somebody to look beyond medication or surgery?”

“You know what, Charlie?” Dr. Najm replied. “I’ve never been challenged like you’re challenging me here. I’m going to take on this challenge.”

“Through this research,” Shor says, “I’m hopeful that when someone has a seizure, before they look at taking medicine, they’re going to look at what’s happening in their life.”

His desire to help others with epilepsy and his appreciation for his care at Cleveland Clinic has also led Shor to make a generous donation of $10 million toward the construction of a new Neurological Institute building on Cleveland Clinic’s main campus.

The building promises to be the launch pad for what Cleveland Clinic Neurological Institute Chair Dr. Andre Machado, PhD, refers to as a “moonshot” ambition: Stop neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease from developing in the first place, rather than treating them after they’ve Dr. Andre Machado, Chair of the Neurological Institute, developed. performs a neurological procedure.

alling the shots at the world’s largest paper bag company doesn’t come without a few headaches. Just ask Charlie Shor.

For more than 25 years, he led Duro Bag Mfg, a Covington, Ky.-based manufacturer with more than 1,000 employees. He took the helm in 1987 after the passing of his father, who founded the company.

Despite his stressful job, Shor had always considered himself to be in good health. When he was 25, however, everything changed during a business trip to New York City.

“I was on my way to a dinner where I knew I would be sitting at the head table,” he recalls. “To my surprise, I got in the cab and I had a seizure.”

Soon afterward, he began to experience more seizures, almost daily. After seeking medical care, he was diagnosed with epilepsy and prescribed medication to control his seizures.

Despite the setback, Shor didn’t let epilepsy slow him down. He successfully led Duro until 2014, when he started the Charles L. Shor Foundation, which funds epilepsy research.

Along the way, Shor spent decades searching for the right fit for his medical care and his ideas for research. He knew there had to be a doctor who would consider his theory

04

Dr. Imad Najm, right, with a patient.

Dr. Najm is studying the effect of health optimization on seizure control for epilepsy.

The Neurological Institute’s strengths in neurology, neurosurgery, psychiatry and rehabilitation will come together under one roof in the new building, designed to serve the unique needs of people with neurological conditions. In the “waiting room of the future,” for example, advanced technology will capture neurological functions digital data during the intake process. Instead of playing with their phones or watching television before their appointments, patients will complete assessments on an electronic tablet to measure neuroperformance, with the results available immediately for review with their caregivers.

In gratitude for Shor’s gift, the epilepsy center in the new building will be named the Charles Shor Epilepsy Center.

“The building looks exciting,” Shor says.

“But most importantly, the people inside the building and the care and devotion that they bring are key. Putting patients first makes the patients’ confidence so much stronger. It also makes the doctors cognizant of why they’re there, what needs to get done and why it gets done. No matter who you are, all patients are going to be treated extremely well.”

Gifts of all sizes are needed to reach the Neurological Institute’s “moonshot” goal of finding ways to prevent devastating neurological diseases. Gifts of all types – whether outright or testamentary – provide seed funding for research and new ideas and are often a catalyst for obtaining federal grants in the future.

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY CHAMPION: JOURNEY CENTER FOR SAFETY AND HEALING

SAFETY, HEALING, AND BREAKING CYCLES OF ABUSE FOR CHILDREN AND ADULTS Journey Center for Safety and Healing, formerly Domestic Violence & Child Advocacy Center, focuses on outreach and prevention

By VINCE GUERRIERI Crain’s Content Studio-Cleveland

I

t was a fraught time in spring 2020 when “coronavirus” became a part of the regular vocabulary. It was particularly perilous for those in abusive households.

“As soon as that stay-home order went into place last March, we knew how dangerous that would be for anyone in an abusive relationship,” said Melissa Graves.

“One of the hallmarks of abuse is isolation, and now everyone was isolated.”

Graves is chief executive officer of Journey Center for Safety and Healing (Journey). Formerly Domestic Violence & Child Advocacy Center (DVCAC), the new name demonstrates the breadth of services the center provides – which are more in need now than ever before.

“I think we’re in a society where Melissa Graves, chief people have a lot executive officer of of uncertainty, in Journey Center for jobs, in housing, in Safety and Healing other things,” said Journey’s board president Eric Logan of KPMG. “Greater uncertainty and greater emotional trauma cause greater potential for domestic violence.”

FULL RANGE OF SERVICES Journey’s 45-year history is the product of various mergers with organizations including Domestic Violence Center of Cleveland and Bellflower Center for the Prevention of Child Abuse. “Domestic violence and child abuse are inter-related, so it made sense to bring those missions together,” Graves said. “Physical abuse, neglect, witnessing violence, and living within that abusive dynamic cause harm and can

06

create a higher likelihood that a child may have health issues, mental health issues, substance abuse issues and a higher risk of experiencing abuse as a victim or abuser.”

In 2021, the organization changed its name. “We chose this new name because the word ‘journey’ is more reflective of the survivor’s experience,” Graves said.

“Everybody’s path is unique and it isn’t always a straight line. We are there with all survivors every step of the way, whether they are just beginning to realize they are in an abusive relationship, trying to leave one, or want to address the trauma of abuse that happened years ago.”

“We chose this new name because the word ‘journey’ is more reflective of the survivor’s experience.”

Journey’s mission and Helpline remain unchanged; 216-391-4357 (HELP). People can also text, call or live chat through Journeyneo.org.

A range of services, in addition to the Helpline, includes trauma focused therapy, victim advocacy, support groups, supervised visitation, prevention education, culturally relevant advocacy and support services and the only secure Shelter for those fleeing domestic violence. All of these are critical on a child’s or adult’s path to finding safety, healing, and breaking the cycle of abuse.

The shelter remains an important resource, Graves said, because one of the most crucial aspects of escaping domestic violence is having someplace to go. Because of social distancing requirements caused by COVID, the shelter is operating at reduced capacity. Community support is critical in making sure Journey can help survivors find a safe place even when Shelter is full.

There’s still a level of misunderstanding that it should just be easier for someone to leave, according to Graves. Data shows that

leaving is the most dangerous time and is when most domestic violence homicides occur. Fear, lack of resources, isolation from friends and family, worries about children or losing a job, and many other factors prevent people from leaving.

There’s also a preventive component, with education of students in schools, as well as teachers and other educational personnel, to recognize signs of abuse – which has been harder to spot during COVID as many districts adopted virtual learning.

Teachers need to know how to identify a child in trouble and how to support them remotely.

“We have to be the outlet for people both when it’s 2 a.m. and they need someone to talk to or when they recognized they’re challenged or threatened in a situation and figure out a long-term plan,” Logan said.

In addition to increased demand from COVID-19, Journey has been hampered by a severe loss of funding. With a $4.5 million annual budget, Journey has seen federal money diminish by about $1.1 million from the Victims of Crime Act Fund over the past three years, Graves said. Other funding sources have declined drastically as well.

Those funding cuts have led to a reduction of staff, including some front-line personnel.

“It’s imperative people recognize the value of the services and our need to be able to deliver on our mission,” Logan said. “It’s necessary for the community to back this up.

When people need the services, we need to be there. Domestic violence and child abuse are things that people don’t want to think about but impact us all.”

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY CHAMPION: KOINONIA

CARING FOR THE WHOLE PERSON Koinonia addresses unique needs of people with intellectual, developmental disabilities

By SHANNON SMITH

CRAIN’S CONTENT STUDIO-CLEVELAND

F

or almost five decades, Koinonia has been dedicated to ending the social, physical and economic barriers that have isolated people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and other complex conditions.

And now, the nonprofit has taken the next step to focus on providing wholeperson care that supports the unique needs and preferences of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, or IDDs. Whether it’s addressing mental health, behavioral health or other health care conditions, Koinonia’s refined mission will help it better meet the needs of the people it serves. Indeed, more than 85% of the people the nonprofit serves have a mental health diagnosis, and 65% have another co-existing medical condition along with IDD. Health care providers who are not explicitly trained on treating people with IDDs often will move individuals through the system because they may have a behavior or tic, are nonverbal or require more attention or coordination than a typical patient.

In mental health situations, they can be misdiagnosed or overmedicated without the root cause of the issue being addressed.

"For decades, Koinonia has been committed to advancing the quality of life and access to whole-person care for adults with IDD," said Jeanne Greene, chief clinical and program officer of Koinonia. "This new model of integrated care continues our vision to provide seamless integration of medical and behavioral health services."

A LONG HISTORY OF CARING Koinonia (coin-o-NEE-yah) is a leading 501(c)(3) organization in Northeast Ohio that provides residential services, day programs and employment services to adults with IDDs. The organization was founded in 1974

by Sr. Mary Charles Szczecinski who opened their first group home “Leans” in Garfield Heights, after battling “retarded zoning laws” that existed at the time. Today, Koinonia serves 600 people with a dedicated staff of over 580 professionals. Their residential

08

Koinonia believes that people with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities deserve comprehensive care that takes all life factors into account. program has grown from one home to 22 licensed group homes and more than 50 supported living arrangements.

Koinonia developed the Whole-Person Integrated Care approach because of the dramatic rise in health-care costs and to address the pressing need to treat every individual as a whole person. This includes not only mental and behavioral health care, but also an understanding of social and environmental issues that need to be considered when treating individuals with IDDs. This approach includes all actions needed to keep the person safe and healthy, including health care, nutrition, safety and personal support.

“We want to examine their current barriers to wellness as well as past experiences that continue to impact their daily life,” Greene said of the new focus.

“Koinonia believes that the health care system should treat people with IDDs and other complex conditions as whole people deserving of accessible, comfortable and centered care in an equitable environment.”

HOLISTIC APPROACH The first priority for Koinonia is working to secure accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities, which will allow the nonprofit to be counted as a Medicaid provider, which is critical to a large portion of the population it serves.

“With (CARF accreditation), we will be able to provide things like therapy, case management, pharmacological management

with psychiatrists, nurse practitioners and more, along with other ancillary services like crisis intervention or assertive community treatment teams,” said Ryan Wood, Koinonia’s vice president of business development. “This will allow us to go through and evaluate what we have a need for and what other services we can add.”

Koinonia also has plans to work to identify the most frequent diagnoses that present among its population and target treatments to help these individuals – all with the goal to better serve people in the community with IDDs. “By the end of Phase Two, we’re hopeful that we’ll have narrowed down the approach to all the different diagnosis combinations in both the individuals we serve today and also start looking at the opportunity to start treating people who are in the community but not necessarily in our residential facilities and their family members or support teams,” Wood explained.

Lastly, Koinonia intends to share what it learns by offering training to other providers and helping them implement the strategies of whole-person integrated care.

Ultimately, the hope – and anticipation — is that by working together and sharing approaches, Koinonia will help build traction in addressing the disparities in health care to better serve the whole community.

EVERYONE DESERVES EQUAL ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE. People with developmental disabilities have underlying health conditions not easily treated through conventional health care practices, and they are often discriminated against and misunderstood by traditional healthcare systems. Your donation will help Koinonia expand its specialized integrated, whole-person care model developed specifically to fulfill this unique need.

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY CHAMPION: NEIGHBORHOOD ALLIANCE

NEIGHBORHOOD ALLIANCE BUILDS ON NEARLY A CENTURY OF SERVING LORAIN COUNTY Nonprofit works to expand with facility improvements

By SHANNON SMITH

CRAIN’S CONTENT STUDIO-CLEVELAND

F

or more than 90 years, Neighborhood Alliance has been a compassionate advocate for Lorain County and its people, working to serve and grow the community from the inside out. Since its founding in 1927, the organization’s core values have not changed: Helping communities grow stronger by meeting critical needs and empowering individuals and families.

The nonprofit’s services fall into four areas: shelter and emergency; child enrichment; family support; and senior enrichment. Neighborhood Alliance also helps with case planning, employment assistance, transportation support, referrals for additional services and other ways to help break the cycle of poverty.

Eric Enos is one of the many people whose lives have been positively impacted

by Neighborhood Alliance. After being let go from his long-term job six years ago, he became homeless after a year and a half of living off savings and applying for countless jobs to no avail.

After losing his house, Enos turned to Neighborhood Alliance, which gave him a safe place to live and eat in a supportive environment. He also began volunteering for the organization’s Meals on Wheels program, which turned into a full-time job offer as a meal delivery driver.

“We all plan for our future, but sometimes that changes,” Enos said. “You might be down on your luck, and you're going to need a place like Neighborhood Alliance that lifts you up to give you support.”

A SOURCE OF SUPPORT -- IN NEED OF SUPPORT Despite having the largest shelter in the area, it can be a challenge for Neighborhood Alliance to assist the thousands of people who need its services.

But, the recent donation of a former YMCA building in Elyria will likely help ease some of the nonprofit’s capacity and

10

Neighborhood Alliance aims to strengthen the Lorain County community through a variety of services including transportation assistance, shelter, family support programs and more. efficiency struggles by opening space at its shelter and consolidating its kitchen facilities, according to Alicia Foss, president and CEO of Neighborhood Alliance.

The Haven Center Homeless Shelter in Lorain is a full-service facility where volunteers and workers provide shelter, meals, toiletries, laundry, clothing and other support to men, women and families. The building also houses administrative offices as well as one of the kitchens that supports Neighborhood Alliance’s Meals on Wheels program.

With the move of office and kitchen space to the former YMCA building in Elyria, the Haven Center will be renovated to accommodate 80 beds, from its current 68, with an upgrade to the bathrooms and a transition to a hotel-style floorplan with two people to a room.

‘NO NEED … TO BE ON A WAITING LIST TO GET FOOD’ At the beginning of the pandemic, there were more than 500 seniors on a waiting list to receive food because of a lack of resources and money, Foss said.

While Neighborhood Alliance was able to eventually get everyone off the waiting list through donations and emergency funding, providing more than 83,000 meals

so far this year, the organization needed a more sustainable way to keep the program operating at the necessary capacity.

The addition of the central kitchen at the YMCA building is a step in that direction.

“We're looking at long-term planning on how we want to sustain that program going forward, because in my mind and in the mind of my team, there just really is no need for an older adult to be on a waiting list to get food, and we want to fix that for the county,” Foss said.

Longtime volunteer Jen Schuler also stressed the critical need for the services that Neighborhood Alliance provides to the community, including the meals for seniors, many of whom are homebound and in need of social interaction.

“I think if the pandemic has shown us anything, it's that we need each other,” said Schuler, who has volunteered with the organization for five years. “We are all connected to each other. We need to take care of each other … that is what's going to make a vibrant community.”

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY CHAMPION: NEIGHBORHOOD FAMILY PRACTICE

BUILDING TRUST AND CHANGING LIVES Neighborhood Family Practice works to close the gap between under-served communities and quality medical care

By VINCE GUERRIERI Crain’s Content Studio-Cleveland

L

ike many industries, medical care had to adapt on the fly when COVID-19 hit in early 2020.

That change was particularly acute in community health centers. Originating in the 1960s as part of the federal War on Poverty, community health centers treat underserved and, in many instances, impoverished patients in urban and rural areas, who otherwise struggle to access comprehensive care.

For more than 40 years, Neighborhood Family Practice (NFP) has been serving Cleveland with doctors, nurse practitioners, midwives and therapists. Growing from one facility to seven throughout Cleveland’s west side and Lakewood, NFP had to adapt quickly in the face of a pandemic.

“We were able to scale up a virtual platform for ongoing continuity of care,” says Dr. Chad Garven, NFP’s associate medical director of medical informatics. “If there was a planning meeting to move to telehealth like we did, we would have rolled this out in 18 months. We did it in two and a half weeks. You never would have designed it this way.”

NFP CEO and President Jean Polster said that prior to the onset of COVID-19, there was no reimbursement for telemedicine.

However, some regulations were loosened, and NFP was able to move to 70 percent telemedicine, including all of its behavioral health programs.

In addition to telehealth, NFP offered drive-up COVID tests and then, when a vaccine was made publicly available, started administering it to patients and community members – in many instances, at churches and community centers.

“It’s one thing to identify vulnerable populations,” Garven says. “But you have to meet them where they are.”

BREAKING DOWN BARRIERS Since March of last year, NFP has administered more than 10,000 COVID tests and 25,000 vaccines – no small feat in a community that is particularly susceptible to misinformation and isn’t always able to take

time off even for a vaccination, let alone any attendant recovery from side effects.

It’s just another barrier that NFP is fighting to break down in patient service.

Neighborhood Family Practice employs people who can speak Spanish, Arabic and Nepali in order to better communicate with patients and provides free transportation to bring patients in for care. Even before there was a COVID vaccine, NFP was performing community outreach to ensure people were getting the necessary immunizations.

“A lot of our patients have barriers to care – language, transportation, mental health,” Polster says. “It can be intimidating to get to a large institution. We look at things that get in the way of people keeping themselves healthy, and we try to break down those barriers.”

Health centers are designed to be less imposing than a huge hospital but may still be intimidating to patients. Many may also be skeptical, and deservedly so, Garven says, noting that the communities NFP serves correlate almost directly with the maps of homes with lead paint and neighborhoods that were redlined as being undesirable.

“The type of patients we see have borne the brunt of ‘take our word for it,’ and I think that’s where a lot of the skepticism rises from,” he says. “There’s an overall distrust of authority that’s cooked in.”

Some of the neighborhoods NFP serves are being gentrified – creating a strange dichotomy of large, well-appointed homes and businesses while many residents are still struggling to get by. NFP has been a convenient source of accessible care for all.

“When we first started our telemedicine and texting outreach to patients, some people were surprised that even those who were struggling would embrace our new ways of delivering care,” Garven says.

“What we found was that by focusing on all the residents of our neighborhoods we could really make a positive difference during this pandemic.”

Trust between medical professionals and the communities they serve is paramount for the effective delivery of care — especially

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Neighborhood Family Practice has been dedicated to combating the skepticism around vaccines. during a public health crisis like the COVID-19 pandemic. To that end, NFP has worked tirelessly to build rapport among underserved communities and continues to gain the trust of people who need help most.

NFP continues to place an emphasis on patient-centered care and achieving successful health outcomes for vulnerable populations. By prioritizing patient engagement and building personal relationships between practitioners and the public, NFP looks to continue earning the trust of the community and combat the skepticism around vaccination and other public health concerns.

American Cancer Society WHAT WE DO: While most people know us for our research, we do so much more.

We attack cancer from every angle. We promote healthy lifestyles to help you prevent cancer. We research cancer and its causes to find more answers and better treatments. We fight for lifesaving policy changes.

We provide everything from emotional support, to the latest cancer information for those who have been touched by cancer. And we do it all 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

The American Cancer Society Road To Recovery program provides transportation to — and from — treatment for people with cancer who do not have a ride or are unable to drive themselves.

Facing cancer is hard.

Having to travel out of town for treatment can make it even harder. Our Cleveland Hope Lodge is a place where cancer patients, along with their caregivers, can find help

and hope when home is far away.

Cancer information, answers and hope are available every minute of every day. Call 800-2272345 for more information.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: The COVID-19 pandemic has had a far-reaching impact on all Americans, especially cancer patients and survivors. After all, risk of infection, overloaded health care systems, shortages of food and supplies, and economic challenges all create unique barriers to achieving and maintaining health while fighting cancer.

It’s a global priority to try to stop the spread of COVID-19. Yet, cancer patients still need you.

They still need us. Because cancer research can’t stop.

Our 24/7 helpline can’t stop. Where we can, we’re continuing our services to provide patients the care and support they need.

Because cancer doesn’t stop. So neither do we.

The American Cancer Society is on a mission to free the world from cancer. We invest in lifesaving research, provide 24/7 information and support, and work to ensure that individuals in every community have access to cancer prevention, detection and treatment.

American Heart Association WHAT WE DO: The mission of the American Heart Association (AHA) is to be a relentless force for a world of healthier, longer lives. Health equity is at the core of all that we do. The AHA is the nation’s oldest and largest voluntary organization dedicated to fighting cardiovascular diseases.

Through education, quality systems improvement, advocacy, CPR training, research and programs for companies, students and the community alike, the Association engages Greater Cleveland in opportunities to create a culture of health.

The urgency for discovery is great. We lose 17 million lives to cardiovascular disease each year. The Association has invested over $4 billion in research across the nation since 1949, second only to the federal government.

Cleveland has received $113 million of that in research funding since 1960 — a figure we are

proud to provide to our incredible local hospitals and research institutions!

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: Even during the pandemic, heart disease and stroke remain the number one and number five causes of death, respectively. In addition to education, resources and training, the Association has created hospital patient data registries and funded accelerated research grants around the connections between COVID-19 and cardiovascular diseases.

A staggering 40% of those hospitalized, due to COVID-19, are stroke survivors or people with heart disease — these are the patients the Association has always been fighting for.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS: • Heart Walks: Engage walkers in physical activity, while also raising lifesaving funds • Go Red For Women Luncheon: Empowers

Northeast Ohioans are photographed walking where they were for the 2021 Cleveland Heart Walk. Walker generosity, fundraising and corporate sponsorships help advance heart and brain research funded by the American Heart Association.

American Red Cross of Northern Ohio

3747 Euclid Ave. Cleveland 44115 216-431-3010 redcross.org/noh EMPLOYEES: 300

WHAT WE DO: The American Red Cross prevents and alleviates human suffering in the face of emergencies by mobilizing the power of volunteers and the generosity of donors.

Through a strong network of volunteers, donors and partners, the Red Cross is always there in times of need.

We shelter, feed and provide comfort to victims of disasters, big and small; supply about 40% of the nation's blood; teach lifesaving skills like First Aid and CPR; distribute international humanitarian aid; and support veterans, military members and their families.

The Northern Ohio Region of the Red Cross serves 31 counties and their 5.3 million residents by preventing, preparing for and responding to emergencies 24 hours per day, seven days a week.

The Red Cross is a nonprofit organization that depends on volunteers, along with the generosity of the American public, to deliver its mission.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: The American Red Cross continues to provide the same support it always has, as it supplies blood products for patients in need of transfusions. The health and safety of everyone attending Red Cross blood drives is a priority, so we are requiring all blood donors, staff and others at our blood drives and donation centers to wear face masks, regardless of vaccination status. We are still providing the same types of support after disasters as well — and to help keep our workforce and the people we serve safe, we have implemented precautions such as masks, health screenings, enhanced cleaning procedures and social distancing.

Bridget C. Miller Harper of Euclid is photographed while donating blood at a Red Cross blood drive, which was held at First Energy Stadium on July 31, 2021.

Peter Burg Award — The Red Cross of Greater Akron and Mahoning Valley; and BASH — The Red Cross of Heartland, Stark and Muskingum Lakes HOW TO HELP: Volunteer: Whether helping one displaced family or thousands, or providing care and comfort to an ill or injured service member or veteran, through the efforts of ordinary people, we can do extraordinary things.

Visit redcross.org/noh and click the volunteer tab to explore the various volunteer opportunities that are available and begin the application process. We will train you with the skills you need to help others in your neighborhood and across the country.

Donate: Blood — Every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood. It cannot be manufactured or stockpiled. It is only available through the generosity of blood donors.

Money — Financial contributions allow the Red Cross to prepare for, respond to and help people recover from disasters, big and small. We respond to more than 60,000 disasters every year, including an average of more than three every day in Northern Ohio, the vast majority of them home fires.

Beech Brook

3737 Lander Road Pepper Pike 44124 216-831-2255 beechbrook.org EMPLOYEES: 183 2020 REVENUE: $12,277,073

WHAT WE DO: At Beech Brook, we have deep roots in this community. We’re proud of our long past, but we’ve never stopped looking toward the future either.

Since our founding in 1852, Beech Brook has continually evolved to meet the greatest needs of our community’s most vulnerable children and families in every era.

Today, we are pursuing that mission by “moving upstream” to tackle the root causes of abuse, neglect, trauma and other forces that prevent children from reaching their full potential. Through our network of community- and home-based behavioral health services, early childhood programs, school partnerships, a strong foster care network, comprehensive sex education, child abuse prevention, and parent education and support groups, we’re intervening early when we can have the most impact on the

future — promoting healthy child development, strengthening the ability to overcome adversity, and enhancing family health and stability. We won’t give up until we’ve helped build a community where every child and family can thrive.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS: The Beech Brook 5K Race and Family Fun Run: Held each October, this is a family-friendly event that welcomes both serious runners and those who just want to enjoy a stroll through Pepper Pike.

YEAR ESTABLISHED: 1852

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: Within days of the pandemic shutdown, Beech Brook had transitioned into a fully remote workforce, making sure that all staff had the technology and support they needed to continue delivering on our mission efficiently and effectively. With the full support of the board of directors, no staff members were laid off and everyone continued to receive their full paychecks. Our direct service staff of counselors, therapists and community workers went above and beyond to continue providing vital mental health and other support services to families and children through telehealth initially — and then in-person services as soon as it was possible.

Beech Brook's newest fundraising event: Coming June 2022, the event will be a fun, casual twist on a backyard BBQ. Planning is underway to continue our longstanding history of fun and memorable fundraisers.

Parenting: 4%

At Beech Brook, we believe all children deserve the chance to grow up in safe and healthy families with the support they need to reach their full potential. Our work has changed as the times and needs of families have changed, but that belief remains at the heart of our mission. As long as there are children who need us, we’ll be ready to rise to the challenge. That’s our Beech Brook promise.

22

HOW TO HELP: No matter how you choose to support Beech Brook, every gift matters. Whether you choose to give time or resources, you’ll be making an investment in building a strong community for all our children. Visit beechbrook.org to learn more about all the ways you can help. Here are a few ways you can make a difference: • Make a one-time gift or a recurring donation, or a gift in honor or memory of a loved one • Double your donation by taking advantage of your employer's matching gift program • Become a sponsor or attend an event • Create a legacy of hope for children and families by including Beech Brook in your estate planning • Organize a holiday toy drive at your workplace, school or church • Donate in-kind gifts, such as gift cards, personal care items or toys • Share your time and talents and become part of a committee/task force to support our mission

EMPLOYEES: 105 WHAT WE DO: Benjamin Rose Institute on Aging’s mission is to support caregivers and empower all people to age well through research, consumer-responsive services and client advocacy.

Throughout our history, Benjamin Rose has remained responsive to the evolving needs of older adults and their caregivers.

We continue to develop and manage innovative, long-term services and supports, conduct research that further improves our understanding of services for older people and the policies that make better services possible, and share our work in Northeast Ohio and across the country.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: Because older adults are one of the most vulnerable populations impacted by COVID-19, Benjamin Rose suspended programs to protect our clients. Our senior centers, workshops, meal sites and group therapy sessions were all put on hold.

Thanks to the flexibility of our funders, volunteers, staff and participants, we were able to convert inperson meals at our senior centers to home delivery, nearly doubling our homedelivered meal clients, shift to using telehealth for counseling and therapy, and adapt education sessions to webinars and virtual workshops.

scheduled throughout the year. Visit benrose.org for current listings.

HOW TO HELP: Make a gift: Gifts and contributions provide support for urgent and ongoing needs. You can make a gift online, by check or through a donor advised fund, matching gifts or a planned gift.

Volunteer: Current opportunities include our Senior Companion Program, wellness phone calls and assistance with delivering meals.

Canopy Child Advocacy Center

P.O. Box 5386 Cleveland 44101 216-574-4325 canopycac.org

EMPLOYEES: 10 WHAT WE DO: Canopy Child Advocacy Center (Canopy) helps victims of child sexual abuse and human trafficking by providing a friendly and welcoming place, along with a team of professionals to assist as they begin their long journeys of healing.

Though the numbers of children served are high (with over 700 a year), there are many more that Canopy can’t reach, due to limited resources. To appreciate the importance of Canopy to Greater Cleveland, consider what unserved children experience. They will likely tell the worst stories of their lives over and over again — to doctors, police, lawyers, therapists, investigators, judges and others. They may have to talk about their traumatic experiences in police stations, where they think they might be in trouble or may be asked questions by well-meaning teachers that could hurt their cases against their abusers.

However, based on a national best practice model, Canopy’s highly effective interventions reduce the trauma that children experience though, while also maximizing access to medical, advocacy and mental health services, and streamlining law enforcement, prosecution and child protective service investigations through interagency collaboration.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: Canopy has remained open with safety measures in place throughout COVID-19, as an essential service to some of the most vulnerable. While looking ahead, the challenges may be even greater. It is anticipated that an influx of child abuse cases will occur since mandated abuse reporters, such as teachers, did not have face-to-face access to children during the early stages of the pandemic.

Upon return to schools full time, many experts expect

Multidisciplinary team coordinator, Heaven Miller, is photographed in a room in which children receive recorded forensic interviews by trained professionals.

disclosures of abuse that may have been occurring throughout the pandemic.

These types of disclosures have additional variables to address, due to their delayed nature.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS: Canopy was not able to hold any inperson fundraisers, due to the pandemic, and does not have any current virtual events scheduled at this time. Please sign up for our newsletter by emailing jjohnson@canopycac.org, in order to remain apprised of any future activities.

HOW TO HELP: As a newly established agency, we need board members who can strengthen our fundraising efforts, especially in relation to event planning and major gifts. During the past 1.5 years, Canopy has received 202 requests for service by team partners for cases that were outside the current target populations.

Many of these cases do not receive the same levels of attention and intervention that primary referrals receive, due to capacity limitations.

As a result, there is a need to expand considerably, in order to serve additional children, specifically those aged 13 and older that have experienced sexual abuse, along with all that have experienced severe physical abuse. The average cost for Canopy to serve a child victim is $1,333. Please donate to help us serve more children with a full array of services.

By providing comprehensive primary and preventive medical, dental and behavioral health services; school-based health services; telehealth; access to an onsite pharmacy with delivery services; assistance with navigating insurance options; and transportation to appointments, if needed, Care Alliance provides patients with the services they need to achieve and maintain good health.

We did not waiver from our commitment to the community through the many challenges of 2020. More than 14,000 individuals were served at the downtown and Central neighborhood location, and we were able to ensure continued care through approximately 7,300 telehealth appointments. In addition, we were able to serve the community offsite by providing COVID-19 tests and vaccinations when they became available in 2021.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: Care Alliance’s dedicated team has conducted more than 6,000 COVID-19 tests and, to date, provided over 4,000 vaccinations across the city. Through partnerships with Cuyahoga Community College campuses, Cuyahoga Metropolitan Housing Authority locations

and community leaders in various neighborhoods with low vaccination rates, we have been able to provide sound information about the vaccines, as well as shots to those interested.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS: Care Alliance Health Center is planning a virtual fundraising event in 2022. Contact Kelley Malcolm at 216-535-9100 for details.

HOW TO HELP: Philanthropic support allows Care Alliance to provide medical, dental and behavioral health services, regardless of a patient’s ability to pay. Additionally, it helps us retain and recruit compassionate and highly qualified staff to care for individuals at our stationary locations, as well as through mobile units. Financial support also gives us the ability to respond to emerging health issues, which are facing the community, with new or expanded programs and services.

In-kind donations are welcome too, especially items that help us better connect with and serve individuals experiencing homelessness. These items include: socks, blankets, personal hygiene items and items that help individuals weather the elements.

EMPLOYEES: 67 WHAT WE DO: The City Mission has been empowering families and individuals to overcome their unique, complex paths to homelessness for over a century. Today, men, women and children, who are seeking a fresh start, receive individual attention and access to holistic supportive services, which begins with meeting basic needs through warm meals and safe shelter.

Additionally, residents receive restorative care and classes that provide crucial opportunities to heal from the effects of living in crisis. And, finally, the Mission offers empowering guidance to secure sustainable income and housing.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: COVID-19 has significantly increased the size and scope of challenges, which were already issues for those experiencing homelessness, such as access to health care, intense stress and trauma, and education barriers for children.

To match the growing challenges, The City Mission is collaborating with health care, mental health and education providers, in order to increase support for our residents. We have restructured programs and facilities to reduce direct contact and provided COVID-19 testing and vaccination access for our residents. Furthermore,

we also set up private telehealth access and created an Academic Learning Pod and staffassisted virtual learning environment for students.

2020 REVENUE: $9,359,656

FUNDRAISING EVENTS: Running with a Mission is a familyfriendly 5K run/1-mile walk that brings the community of Cleveland together, in support of The City Mission. In September, we celebrated our 10th anniversary of the event and an exciting location change to Edgewater Park.

Cleveland Metroparks

4101 Fulton Parkway Cleveland 44144 216-635-3200 clevelandmetroparks.com

EMPLOYEES: 706 WHAT WE DO: Cleveland Metroparks is a nationally recognized and accredited park system, spanning 24,000 acres across Northeast Ohio.

It is inclusive of 18 park reservations, more than 300 miles of trails, eight golf courses, eight lakefront parks, dining and retail venues, and the nationally acclaimed Cleveland Metroparks Zoo. The Park District serves 49 diverse communities, connecting guests to nature and promoting conservation and sustainability.

Founded in 1917, Cleveland Metroparks saw record visitation in 2020 with over 19.7 million recreational visitors, and Cleveland Metroparks Zoo annually ranks as one of the most popular year-round attractions in Northeast Ohio. Cleveland Metroparks has also been recognized as one of the top park districts in the United States, having won the National Gold Medal Award for Excellence in Park and Recreation Management five times in its 104-year history.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: Cleveland Metroparks — now more than ever — serves as a resource for everyone in our community to find peace and comfort, as well as strength and restoration. The pandemic resulted in record park usage, with more than 19.7 million recreational visits.

In addition to ensuring guests could enjoy the parks safely, Cleveland Metroparks looked at creative ways to host our

34

special events and worked hard to reactivate in-person programming to keep guests connected to nature, while also offering online virtual experiences.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS: Charitable gifts make a significant impact on all aspects of Cleveland Metroparks.

Through a wide range of opportunities, people may directly support special places and programs that are closest to their hearts, as well as district-wide initiatives like the Trails Fund, which was created to expand trail connections throughout our community.

Private donations are also a critical component to securing matching funds for many federal and state grants. An enduring priority of Cleveland Metroparks is land preservation, and donors can support the land preservation fund through property donations, as well as monetary gifts. Donors may also choose to support The Emerald Necklace Endowment Fund of The Cleveland Foundation, which helps preserve and protect Cleveland Metroparks for future generations.

HOW TO HELP: During every season, you can embrace the outdoors, secure a future for wildlife, and celebrate and protect the gift of nature by making a donation today and planning your charitable support for tomorrow.

Your gift can steward the “Emerald Necklace” to ensure healthy forests and streams for the next century.

Or, you can also directly impact what matters most to you, from projects like new hiking trails, to youth fishing programs. And, of course, you can also support Cleveland Metroparks Zoo, or a specific park reservation, to sustain over 24,000 acres at Cleveland Metroparks for the next century. Additional giving information is available at clevelandmetroparks.com/ donate.

Cleveland Metroparks also offers fun, educational and diverse volunteer opportunities for adults, youth (16 years old and older), community organizations, student projects and corporate groups. Please visit clevelandmetroparks. com/volunteer for more information.

The Cleveland Orchestra WHAT WE DO: The Cleveland Orchestra has won widespread acclaim as one of the world’s finest orchestras through extraordinary artistry, domestic and international touring, a long history of recording, and robust education and community engagement programs.

This month, the ensemble is celebrating its return to the Severance stage with in-person audiences, following an over 18 monthlong hiatus, marking music director Franz Welser-Möst’s 20th season at the helm, along with the Orchestra’s 104th season.

Strong community support for music continues to drive the Orchestra. With one of the youngest classical music audiences in the country, the Orchestra is committed to inspiring new music lovers through education and community initiatives in Northeast Ohio. New digital programs, like the Adella streaming app and the On a Personal Note podcast, offer opportunities for a

broader reach to audiences in Ohio — and beyond.

The Cleveland Orchestra maintains a year-round schedule at its home venues of Severance Music Center and Blossom Music Center.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: The Cleveland Orchestra has dramatically increased its digital presence to stay connected with our community at home and across the globe.

Most notably, the ensemble launched The Cleveland Orchestra: In Focus series on the new streaming platform Adella (adella. live), in which viewers enjoyed 13 episodes of performances, interviews with musicians and archival material.

Other initiatives include the On a Personal Note podcast; radio broadcasts, in partnership with WCLV Ideastream Public Media; resources like Mindful Music Moments to keep young listeners engaged; and the launch of the Orchestra's record label

The Cleveland Orchestra returns to the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel Concert Hall stage at Severance Music Center for the in-person 2021/22 season in October. This marks the 20th season for music director Franz Welser-Möst, pictured above with the Orchestra.

with the recordings, A New Century and Schubert's "The Great" and Krenek.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS: In 2021, supporters have enjoyed a variety of virtual events, from listening series that go behind the music, to virtual performances and conversations with Orchestra musicians. In August, we hosted our first in-person event in over a year, the inaugural Blossom Summer Soirée at Blossom Music Center to benefit the Orchestra’s summer home.

During the 2021/22 season, we have over 30 events in store, in addition to our regular concert season, including the Meet the Artist series, open rehearsals and more.

HOW TO HELP: During the pandemic, music lovers in Northeast Ohio and around the world have stood with the Orchestra through concert cancellations and ticket losses. As we move forward and embark on a new in-person season at Severance, donations to the Orchestra Preservation Fund ensure a strong foundation for classical music and provide much-needed support as we navigate continued uncertainty.

care and educational programming in Cleveland, the Zoo Society contributes $500,000 annually to support the zoo’s international conservation program, working to secure a future for wildlife around the world. The Zoo Society maintains the largest membership program in Northeast Ohio (more than 40,000 households).

EMPLOYEES: 18 full-time, 3 part-time and 5 seasonal

WHAT WE DO: The Cleveland Zoological Society is Cleveland Metroparks Zoo’s nonprofit advancement partner that raises philanthropic support for the zoo. The Zoo Society is governed by a board of directors and is an independent 501(c)(3).

In May 2021, the Zoo Society announced a $3 million gift from the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel Supporting Foundation to renovate the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo’s administration building and to enhance educational opportunities through the addition of the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel Auditorium. This is the single largest gift ever secured by the Zoo Society.

The Zoo Society’s philanthropic priorities include campus renewal, as well as supporting the zoo’s national leadership role in science, education programming, research, and positive animal health and welfare standards.

In addition to funding that catalyzes animal

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: Statewide lockdown forced the zoo to close for three months in 2020, deeply affecting the peak membership and visitation season. Despite a reduction in operational and staffing expenses, the Zoo Society has lost $1.5 million in revenue, mostly due to lagging membership and the cancellation of fundraising events.

The Zoo Society received two PPP loans that were fully used to support staffing costs.

With operating support stabilized, fundraising and donor engagement increased, in support of the zoo.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS: This year, The Zoo Society was able to host a mix of virtual and live events that raised more than $1 million.

Animal Attractions, a virtual fundraiser, kicked off the event season with more than 40 donors and friends tuning in from home for presentations and conversation involving animal mating behaviors.

In addition, by the time summer arrived, the Zoo Society’s largest fundraiser and summer favorite returned — Twilight at the Zoo presented by KeyBank.

Meanwhile, Tails and Cocktails, presented by the Steffee Family, highlighted the zoo’s animal care and veterinary teams, while the board of directors hosted a private donor event in June to celebrate the 10th anniversary of African Elephant Crossing.

HOW TO HELP: The Zoo Society prides itself on managing donor contributions efficiently and transparently. We are committed to engaging donors in zoo programs and initiatives of the greatest impact for our community and zoo.

Individuals, foundations and corporations can support our work in many ways. Visit clevelandzoosociety. org/donate or contact Leta Obertacz, director of advancement, at 216-635-3346.

WHAT WE DO: College Now Greater Cleveland is the nation’s first college access organization. Its mission is to increase postsecondary educational attainment in Greater Cleveland through college and career access advising, financial aid counseling, and scholarship and retention services.

College Now serves over 31,000 students and adult learners each year in 185 schools, businesses and community locations across Northeast Ohio — as well as virtually!

In addition to providing advising support services on topics such as financial aid or college applications, College Now also awards over $4 million in need-based, renewable scholarships and matches each of its traditional scholarship recipients with a mentor from the community.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: Education remained one of the most important services during the COVID-19 pandemic.

While school was remote, College Now turned its advising services virtual to continue to serve students and ensure that they received the support they needed. Additionally, College Now worked with scholarship recipients to ensure they had access to technology, as well as housing and food, during campus closures or moves

to remote learning. College Now also offered remote advising services to adults, knowing many may have found themselves out of work during the pandemic, due to the closure of many businesses, along with the impact on food service, hospitality and similar industries.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS: Mentor Monday is a day-long recruiting blitz, featuring news coverage of the College Now Mentoring Program and information about how to get involved, that's hosted in partnership with WKYC Channel 3, CMSD and Say Yes Cleveland.

Bags & Bourbon is a biennial fundraising event, formerly called Bag Lady, that supports College Now’s Mentoring Program. Bags & Bourbon will be held on April 28, 2022, at the Great Lakes Science Center and will feature a silent auction of designer handbags, as well as bourbon tastings and other experiences. Last held in 2019, the event netted over $400,000 for the Mentoring Program.

First Year Cleveland WHAT WE DO: First Year Cleveland (FYC) is a public-private partnership committed to decreasing Cuyahoga County’s alarming infant mortality rates. Recognizing that Black infants die at disproportionately higher rates than any other race or ethnicity, FYC addresses racism and underlying factors contributing to this inequity.

Using a health care and community-based collective impact model, FYC focuses on three major priority areas: reducing racial disparities, addressing extreme prematurity and eliminating sleep-related deaths. To achieve its goals, FYC mobilizes Action Teams to implement health care and community-based activities and interventions.

FYC collaborates with more than 400 community partners, representing over 150 organizations, including expectant

parents, new parents, parents who have experienced pregnancy and infant loss, health care providers, nonprofits, faith-based communities, philanthropic organizations, government and business entities, and educational institutions.

This collective effort has made significant progress in decreasing infant deaths to date, and there is still more work to be done.

Please give today to help ensure that every baby born in Cuyahoga County celebrates a first birthday.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: During the COVID-19 pandemic, FYC partnered with community organizations to meet the increased and urgent needs of new and expectant parents, including food and Internet access. They partnered with the food bank to help community organizations, including home visiting programs,

deliver food in low-income neighborhoods. In addition, FYC increased access for telehealth visits in lowincome neighborhoods. As racial inequities in health outcomes became even more evident during the pandemic, FYC worked with the City of Cleveland and other partners to declare racism as a public health crisis.

HOW TO HELP: Donate: FYC is funded primarily through grants and welcomes individual donations and corporate support. Your gift will help us continue and expand our critical work. Please donate securely online today at firstyearcleveland.org/give.

Coordinate a screening of the short film “Toxic: A Black Woman’s Story”: In doing so, you — and others — will learn about the intersection of racism and health.

Goodwill Industries of Greater Cleveland and East Central Ohio WHAT WE DO: Goodwill Industries of Greater Cleveland and East Central Ohio, Inc. has been serving the local community for more than 100 years. While most people recognize Goodwill as a retail thrift chain, that is only a portion of the Goodwill mission.

Goodwill is a nonprofit, social service agency dedicated to improving the lives of all people by providing skill-building programs and services that are necessary to help remove common barriers to good jobs and independence. In total, 28 different outreach programs are supported by donations and sales made at a network of 21 local retail stores.

Beyond job training and placement, the local Goodwill provides

parenting programs, rape crisis services, emergency vouchers and much more.

Last year alone, more than 11,000 local residents were supported by Goodwill programs.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: The COVID-19 pandemic presented great difficulties to Goodwill Industries. Retail stores, which are the primary source of revenue for the agency, were forced to close for two months.

This lack of revenue, along with the need to continue outreach services to the community, created a financial crisis.

Through the support of local foundations, Goodwill was able to continue to provide vital services during this difficult time.

Once stores were able to reopen safely, Goodwill saw less customers shopping in

the stores. Sales, though, were strong and, by the end of 2020, the organization was in a much better position.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS: Goodwill hosts three fundraising events each year. Report to the Community Breakfast is hosted in March, while Power of Work Breakfast is held in October. Additionally, the agency hosts the Golf for Good annual golf outing in September. Information about these events, along with other fundraising efforts, can be found at goodwillgoodskills.org.

HOW TO HELP: Goodwill relies primarily on donations of material goods to its stores, which are then sold to the community to generate funding for its mission.

Financial donations are also important to the organization’s work, though. Individuals or businesses can support Goodwill through financial gifts or sponsorship of events throughout the year.

Round Up is an easy way to directly support Goodwill by ‘rounding up’ a purchase to the next dollar while shopping at Goodwill.

And donation drives are also an easy way to make an impact. Businesses can support material or technology drives to help provide products for area stores.

Great Lakes Science Center WHAT WE DO: Great Lakes Science Center, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit institution, is home to the NASA Glenn Visitor Center and makes science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) come alive for guests of all ages through hundreds of hands-on exhibits, temporary exhibitions, the Cleveland Clinic DOME Theater, the historic Steamship William G. Mather, daily science demonstrations, seasonal camps and more.

Since opening in 1996, our vision of a community where all people value STEM to inform decisionmaking and enrich lives has impacted an entire generation of young people in Northeast Ohio. Through free admission, programming and scholarships, we provide access to those underrepresented in STEM to boost their confidence and transform their futures. In addition, we inspire the future STEM workforce by partnering with local companies and

entrepreneurs to allow students to explore STEM professions and develop the skills industry leaders will look for in the leaders of tomorrow.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: The Science Center operates in a manner that is safe for all guests — with health and safety protocols at the forefront of our response. These include mask requirements, HVAC updates, UV treatment of exhibits, handwashing stations, sanitizing procedures and reduced touch interfaces.

Camp Curiosity was adapted to provide campers with individually packaged materials and offers a virtual @Home option. In addition, existing school program curriculum is now offered virtually, allowing students to gain field experience from their schools or homes.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS: From now until Jan. 2, 2022, explore the future of aerospace

Great Lakes Science Center is located in downtown Cleveland on the North Coast Harbor.

technology and air travel in Above and Beyond, which features 5,000 square feet of unprecedented interactive demonstrations of aviation and aerospace advances, from the first powered flights to the newest innovations.

Additionally, the Science of Rock N’ Roll opens in spring 2022 and tells the story of rock ‘n’ roll from a scientific advancement perspective.

HOW TO HELP: Operating support: Donations for operating support are especially important during the pandemic, as the Science Center innovates ways to deliver STEM programming to the community. A generous friend of the Science Center has offered to match every dollar raised in support of the museum’s Annual Fund — up to $600,000! Help us reach this goal, and your impact will go twice as far as part of someone’s journey into science.

Capital gifts: As Northeast Ohio’s STEM HQ, the Science Center is continually improving and upgrading exhibits and facilities today that will help form the next generation of tomorrow’s STEM leaders.

Endowment: A gift to the Science Center’s endowment will ensure that the Science Center is able to operate from a position of strength and ensures STEM access for ALL with an emphasis on under-resourced and underrepresented communities.

Holden Forests & Gardens WHAT WE DO: Holden Forests & Gardens is comprised of two of Northeast Ohio’s most important environmental and cultural institutions — the Holden Arboretum and Cleveland Botanical Garden — whose mission is to connect people with the wonder, beauty and value of trees and plants, and to inspire action for healthy communities.

As the 14th largest public garden in the country, Holden Forests & Gardens has over 17,000 member households and an annual attendance of more than 350,000, for whom we strive to provide inspirational and educational visitor experiences.

We are making a positive impact in the region through urban greening and forestry initiatives, environmental research, nature-based, educational programs and worldclass visitor experiences.

We envision a future in which all communities are transformed into vibrant

places where trees, plants and people thrive.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: In March 2020, Holden Forests & Gardens closed its campuses to its members and the public.

During the summer, both the botanical garden and arboretum were gradually reopened with public health measures in place for the safety and comfort of our members, visitors and staff.

Reservations to visit were encouraged, in order to maintain social distancing for guests, as well as to limit the capacity at each facility. Our attendance has remained strong throughout the pandemic, as more and more Northeast Ohioans are becoming interested in outdoor experiences. As a result, we are now fully open to visitors at both campuses, as we maintain recommended safety protocols for visitors and staff.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS: In 2022, Holden Forests & Gardens will host two fundraising events to

support our education, research, conservation and community forestry programs: Twilight in the Whimsical Woods, a family-friendly picnic at the Holden Arboretum, held on Saturday, July 9, and Harvest Moon, featuring local chef inspired dishes and hosted at the Cleveland Botanical Garden on Friday, Sept. 9. In addition, exhibits and events are held throughout the year at both campuses.

HOW TO HELP: Give: Holden Forests & Gardens launched People for Trees in January, a movement to encourage the community to plant and care for 15,000 trees by 2025.

We support this program through our education, research and conservation departments. And we work to educate the community on the importance of trees, provide them with tools and resources to support their planting efforts, and research the impacts of climate change on trees and plants.

Your gift supports not only our programs, but our ability to plant trees in communities with the greatest need too.

Hudson Community Foundation WHAT WE DO: Founded in 2000, Hudson Community Foundation (HCF) serves three primary purposes: - Giving directly to nonprofit organizations that serve the Hudson community, including those related to human services, education, arts, environmental causes and historic preservation - Partnering with individuals, families and companies to assist them in achieving their philanthropic goals through Donor Advised Funds, special purpose funds and other philanthropic mechanisms - Serving as a community convener on critical topics, such as mental health awareness, substance use

and addiction, diversity and inclusion, and hunger.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: HCF created a special fund, initially seeded with $50,000, to provide grants to locally owned and operated restaurants and retail stores that were struggling economically as a result of COVID-19. In particular, grants helped business owners pay ongoing operating expenses, such as rent, utilities, equipment lease payments and marketing supplies. The grants were supplemental support for the businesses that may have received funding from government programs like the Payroll Protection Program (PPP).

In addition, HCF helped individuals and families who were impacted by

the pandemic through organizations, such as the Hudson Food Pantry and The Emergency Assistance Center.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS: HCF’s Big Barn Bash, a farm-to-table dinner event to support Hudson Community Foundation, is held each fall. Additionally, every fall, HCF conducts an annual fund campaign to raise funds for local causes. Meetings for professional advisors, such as investment managers, tax accountants, CPAs and estate attorneys, are held throughout the year to provide counsel and guidance used by advisors to assist their clients.

HOW TO HELP: Give: Contributions of any size can be made through Hudson Community Foundation’s website — myhcf.org — to an array of specific Hudson-oriented causes and organizations.

Donor Advised Funds can be opened by individuals and families no matter where they live or work, and distributions from those funds can be made to organizations locally or across America.

Volunteer: HCF reaches out to committed community members to serve on the board of directors or a range of committees.

Hunger Network WHAT WE DO: We envision no one goes hungry, and no food goes to waste.

Hunger Network is a consortium of 74 hunger centers strategically located throughout Cuyahoga County. We feed our communities’ futures by providing meals to approximately 40,000 people each month through a network of neighborhoodbased food pantries and hot meal sites.

Our hunger centers, located in areas with limited access to fresh food, assist urban and suburban communities.

Each hunger center serves as a neighborhood hub to provide nutritious food and offer a safe place for residents to gather.

Additionally, we bridge the gap between hunger and food waste through the innovative Food Rescue Hero app, which allows us to recover perfectly viable fresh foods from local sources and directly transport them to nonprofit partners who distribute

them. Forty percent of America's food is wasted while 1 in 5 people go hungry: Food Rescue places food into their hands, while also reducing food waste that is destined for landfills.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: Food insecurity increased during the pandemic, particularly for children and seniors. Neighbors who had never needed to access emergency food assistance sought help for the first time.

Hunger Network Centers mobilized on the front lines, providing food and personal protective supplies, via drive-through distributions. As hot meal centers closed, we supported neighborhood establishments by purchasing to-go meals and organizing deliveries to residents. Food Rescue recovered 2.5 million pounds of local food and transported it to those in need. COVID-related food accessibility disruptions are predicted to continue beyond 2022.

FUNDRAISING/ EVENTS: Annual Walk for Hunger & 5K Run: Hundreds of supporters will take one more step towards ending hunger on June 4, 2022, at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo. The 2021 event raised $105,000, which provided 400,000 meals for our community.

Night to Fight Hunger: Enjoy fabulous food, featuring a variety of Cleveland’s finest cuisine, at our annual signature event (formerly known as Best Party of the Year). The November 2021 event has been postponed, due to COVID-19; 2022 details will be coming soon!

HOW TO HELP: Donate: Help us ensure that no one goes hungry. Many working households still experience food insufficiency because they earn too much money to qualify for federal nutrition programs.

Volunteer: Our local hunger centers need volunteers to maintain their operations.

Please consider a gift of your time.

Become a Food Rescue Hero: Download the Hunger Network Food Rescue mobile app, powered by Food Rescue Hero, to rescue fresh, nutritious food from ending up in landfills. Follow step-bystep instructions on the app to drive to the pick-up location, load the rescued food and then deliver it to a nonprofit recipient — all within an hour or less!

New Directions, Inc.

30800 Chagrin Blvd.

Cleveland 44124 216-591-0324 newdirections.co

EMPLOYEES: 65 WHAT WE DO: We offer integrated services for recovery and mental health.

When drugs and alcohol lead adolescents and young adults down a dangerous path, New Directions can help guide them on a new path in recovery.

An independent 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization, New Directions is the only residential, recovery housing and outpatient treatment program of its kind in Northeast Ohio, providing treatment for more than 50,000 adolescents and their families since 1981. We are committed to providing trauma-informed, evidencebased services that change lives and positively impact families and communities.

Substance using adolescents and young adults, including those with co-occurring mental health needs, receive intensive, 24-hour treatment from a dedicated staff, including therapists, a medical director, a psychiatrist, treatment specialists and a registered dietician. The therapeutic day includes the

John F. Stafford Educational Program, staffed with full-time teachers and teaching assistants from Orange City School District.

Meanwhile, the clinical program includes group therapy, individual therapy, art therapy, family therapy, trauma counseling, life skills training, physical recreation and 12-step recovery meetings.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on New Directions' evidencebased, trauma-informed delivery of services was significant. New Directions' staffing profile includes an array of employees and specialists to safely provide 24/7 services for our young people in residential treatment and recovery housing.

We quickly implemented response measures — including telehealth and video conferencing — to ensure all services met our community's needs. This required an enormous team effort across the entire organization, from facilities maintenance, counselors, clinicians and educators, to all operations and administrative areas.

Another important statistic: 68% of New Directions' clients report an improvement in school performance 12 months after discharge. This greatly exceeds national averages!

Charitable contributions can be made directly at newdirections.co/give.

HOW TO HELP: We welcome contributions in cash, in-kind donations and planned gifts, including stocks, bonds and real estate. Your gifts help New Directions provide individuals the treatment services they need, regardless of their abilities to pay.

EMPLOYEES: 1,310 WHAT WE DO: Recovery is possible with OhioGuidestone. A leader in the field of behavioral health with a history dating back to 1864, we address the needs of the whole person, helping them reset their paths, reclaim their autonomy and restore their purpose.

OhioGuidestone connects individuals of all ages with the resources needed to achieve lifelong success, providing community counseling, substance use disorder treatment, early childhood mental health services, psychiatric care, workforce development training and more. We are Where New Paths Begin.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: Throughout our history, OhioGuidestone has seen many crises. Yet, one thing has remained consistent: we have always adapted to best help those we serve. The COVID-19 pandemic is no different.

As the coronavirus crisis

unfolded, many of the individuals and families we serve were abruptly isolated at home, cut off from existing support systems and behavioral health services, and forced to face increased financial strain and uncertainty.

Since the onset of the pandemic, we have continued to deliver services and support our clients in need, all while effectively balancing the health and safety of our staff and those we serve.

Our staff is equipped to provide care to our clients — both virtually and in-person, following strict protocols for face coverings, social distancing and hygiene, depending on clients' needs, along with rapidly evolving conditions in the communities we serve.

Disruption of care was never an option, and OhioGuidestone continues to adapt to the ever-

changing needs faced by our communities.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS: Holiday Giving, NovemberDecember: Kick off the holidays with Giving Tuesday. Folllow @OhioGuidestone on social media to check out all the exciting ways you can support OhioGuidestone over the holidays, in order to help children and families year-round.

Cleveland 44120 216-991-4000 preterm.org

Preterm

EMPLOYEES: 55 WHAT WE DO: Preterm’s mission is to advance reproductive health and justice by providing safe, respectful and accessible abortion and sexual health care. We are a trusted, independent clinic that has provided essential health care in Northeast Ohio since 1974.

People who have abortions are us, our family, friends and neighbors. Safe, legal abortion has been a mainstay in the United States for nearly 50 years.

Preterm advocates for the protection of every person's right to determine whether — or when — to become a parent. Bodily autonomy and abortion rights are essential to supporting public health and raising healthy families.

The average age of our patients is 27, and 70% are already parents with limited financial resources to care for their children.

Reproductive health and access across the country have never been at greater risk. Preterm is working closely with state and national partners to preserve reproductive freedom in the face of

mounting restrictions.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: The majority of our patients struggled to make ends meet even before the pandemic.

Ninety-five percent require financial assistance to cover the costs of their abortions. Affordable, timely reproductive health care is more important than ever before, as COVID-19 has raised additional challenges to access, such as limited childcare, unemployment and transportation issues.

When the stay-at-home order was issued, Preterm was cited in violation of the halt on non-essential surgeries. We went to court and won. Even during a typical year, it’s a challenge for Preterm to raise the necessary funds. Without our incredible donors, we would not have been able to keep the doors open throughout the pandemic.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS: As the only independent nonprofit clinic in Ohio, Preterm is funded primarily by individuals like you. And it has an

ever-evolving calendar of fundraising and community activities.

HOW TO HELP: Support from community members — like you — helps preserve reproductive rights and bodily autonomy.

Every donation makes a difference. Together, we can ensure the bright futures we all deserve — with access to abortion and sexual health care without judgment or shame.

Monthly giving: Join our sustaining donors by setting up a monthly donation at preterm.org/ support.

Stella Maris

1320 Washington Ave. Cleveland 44113 216-781-0550 stellamariscleveland.com

EMPLOYEES: 120 WHAT WE DO: Stella Maris has provided drug and alcohol treatment services to the people of Greater Cleveland since 1948. Our services have expanded over the years, but our mission hasn’t changed: We treat addiction, guide recovery and rebuild lives.

We serve anyone in Greater Cleveland struggling with addiction, regardless of their abilities to pay.

Roughly 95% of our clients come to us at or below the Federal Poverty Level.

Many lack a stable home or insurance. Addiction does not discriminate by age, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation or income, and neither do we. We serve people from all walks of life.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: The COVID-19 pandemic has created an environment conducive to substance misuse, addiction and relapse, only exacerbating the opioid epidemic in Greater Cleveland.

In December 2020, the Center for Disease Control issued a Health Alert Network Advisory, identifying the United States’ highest number of drug overdose deaths ever recorded in a 12-month period. In addition, in 2020, Cuyahoga County’s overdose deaths increased by nearly 10% over 2018 and 3% over 2019, continuing the upward trend.

In response to a growing community need, Stella Maris is expertly navigating a period of rapid growth across the agency. We have successfully managed this growth and maintained the efficiency and quality of our services — even when the COVID-19 outbreak necessitated quickly transitioning to a mostly remote workforce and telehealth for outpatient services.

with COVID-19 protocols in place.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS: Due to COVID-19, our in-person fundraising events have been suspended. We do anticipate celebrating the re-opening of the Stella Maris Coffee House later in the fall though.

HOW TO HELP: Give: Financial gifts of any size are deeply appreciated. Please email Kelli Wall at kelli.wall@ stellamariscleveland.com for more information.

Volunteer: For further information, please contact Molly Gallagher at molly.gallagher@ stellamariscleveland.com.

In recent months, we have slowly begun to bring back 12-step meetings, family therapy and group sessions to our buildings

Teach For America Ohio

3500 Lorain Ave., Suite 400 Cleveland 44113 216-961-4485 teachforamerica.org/ where-we-work/ohio EMPLOYEES: 21

WHAT WE DO: Teach For America (TFA) recruits and develops a diverse corps of outstanding leaders who make an initial twoyear commitment to teach in high-need schools and become lifelong leaders in the effort to end educational inequity. Our aspiration is that, over the next 10 years, twice as many children — in communities where we work — will reach key academic milestones, indicating they are on a path to economic mobility and co-creating a future filled with possibility.

Teachers and leaders in TFA are trained and supported to go beyond traditional expectations, in order to advance the academic and personal growth of their students and contribute to school and system level improvement.

TFA launched operations in Ohio in 2012. Nine years later, our network is comprised of over 1,000 alumni, with twothirds working full-time

70

in education, and more than 100 corps member teachers serving across the state. From classrooms, to districts, to state houses, they are reimagining education to realize the day when every child has an equal opportunity to learn, lead and thrive.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: When schools closed, due to COVID-19, our system experienced the single most disruptive moment in the history of U.S. education — one that further widened disparities caused by long-standing inequities. This pushed us to reflect in new ways — and with new urgency — on what it means to change the odds for our kids, families and communities.

As students faced potential learning loss, we partnered with a team of educators to pilot new approaches to learning in a remote context. And we uncovered and shared key insights that can boost student engagement virtually.

HOW TO HELP: There are many ways you can support our mission to make an excellent and equitable education a reality for all children.

Donate: Your financial support helps TFA continue expanding opportunities for thousands of students. Donate online or learn about other ways you can give. Visit teachforamerica.org/ support-us for more information.

Partner: We team up with corporations to achieve our shared vision of a country where all children can realize their full potential.

EMPLOYEES: 82 WHAT WE DO: Founded in 1913, United Way of Greater Cleveland is a local, independent nonprofit organization dedicated to fighting poverty across the Greater Cleveland area. As the region’s largest private sector investor in health and human services, United Way of Greater Cleveland invests in efforts that address poverty, using a two-pronged approach.

The first prong focuses on the daily issues affecting those living in poverty through the Community Hub for Basic Needs. The second drives research and innovation through the Impact Institute, a think tank with an action plan, focused on identifying longterm solutions to break the cycle of poverty.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: United Way of Greater Cleveland remains committed to helping our community recover from the COVID-19 pandemic: • Our response began

through United Way’s 211.

Since March 2020, 211 has handled nearly 300,000 calls.

• In January 2021, we partnered with Cuyahoga County to establish a dedicated COVID-19 vaccination hotline through 211, providing callers access to vaccine information, including eligibility details and places to obtain inoculations.

Between Jan. 25 and June 1, the line received nearly 59,000 calls from Northeast Ohio residents who were seeking assistance, regarding the coronavirus vaccine.

• We were proud to serve as a partner in the Greater Cleveland COVID-19 Rapid Response Fund, which has awarded more than $18 million since March 2020 to hundreds of organizations throughout Greater Cleveland.

• In September 2020, United Way of Greater Cleveland and the Cleveland Foundation partnered with the Cleveland Metropolitan School District to introduce

Academic Learning Pods.

As a result, students in kindergarten through eighth grade received a safe space, along with small group, in-person tutoring to supplement their virtual learning.

EVENTS: To learn about upcoming virtual events and community conversations, follow us on Facebook @ UnitedWayCLE, Twitter @ UnitedWayCLE, Instagram @UnitedWayCLE and LinkedIn @United-WayofGreaterCleveland.

Since its founding in 1982 by then Cleveland mayor George Voinovich, approximately 170,000 youth have obtained a job or internship through Y.O.U., earning more than $60 million in salaries and stipends.

Y.O.U. employment and school-based programs help nearly 5,000 individuals annually, preparing them for career pathways through summer and year-round jobs, internships, for-credit high school classes and

industry-specific credential training.

Y.O.U.’s vision is a just and equitable community where every young person is ready and confidently pursuing a meaningful future.

COVID RESPONSE/ IMPACT: When the State of Ohio shut down, Y.O.U. took all in-person activities remote, including our in-school program, Jobs for Ohio’s Graduates (JOG), and young adult job readiness and credential training.

Typically employing 2,000 to 3,000 teens each summer, Y.O.U. cut that number in half to ensure youth had safe, in-person work experiences; it also provided an “earn while you learn” remote working option. Thanks to the generosity of funding partners, we were able to provide a device and Wi-Fi to any teen or young adult who needed it.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS: The Youth Career Olympics is an annual event, held in April, that showcases the business skills students in the Jobs for Ohio’s Graduates program have learned all year. They compete in a total of nine events and vie for first, second and third place in competitions like public speaking, corporate team challenge and resume writing.

The annual Austin Carr Celebrity Golf Invitational in July is hosted by the Cavs legend. Golfers are paired with local sports and media celebrities and Y.O.U. youth for a fun-filled day on the links.

HOW TO HELP: Give: Y.O.U. relies on the generosity of the community — foundations, corporations and individuals — to help us expand the number of youth we serve annually.

Donations can be made via youthopportunities.org/ ways-to-give.

Volunteer: Y.O.U. has several opportunities for business professionals to serve youth. They include assisting students with resume writing, conducting mock interviews and guest speaking on their career, financial literacy, technology or any topic that can enhance the student’s experience as they prepare for the world of work.
