STRENGTHENING OUR COMMUNITY It seems that just when a charitable organization is needed most by its constituents, funds from private, philanthropic and government resources become all the more difficult to obtain. Forward-thinking donors, board members and staff of charitable organizations are discovering the need to establish stable investments that look to the long-term needs of their organizations.
Organizational Partner Benefits An organizational fund at the Cleveland Foundation serves both as part of an organization’s funding mix and as a long-term growth strategy. The benefits of establishing a Cleveland Foundation organizational fund include: n
Access to large investment pools with low fees and proven strong investment stewardship
n
Planned giving expertise and sophisticated giving vehicles such as charitable gift annuities, charitable remainder trusts and charitable lead trusts
n
Positive brand affiliation with the foundation by virtue of having an organizational fund backed by the services and reputation of the Cleveland Foundation
n
An assigned donor relations advisor providing customized services, including access to the foundation’s Advancement team with decades of legal, tax, grantmaking and development experience
The foundation also offers its organizational fund partners secure online giving directly to their fund through the foundation’s website, and all gifts are tax deductible at the highest levels allowed.

First Year Cleveland Philanthropic Opportunities
WHAT WE DO
For more than 50 years, infants in the Greater Cleveland area have been dying at a rate similar to many third-world countries. First Year Cleveland wants to change that. We are a community movement committed to ensuring that every baby born in Cuyahoga County will celebrate their first birthday. Our 11 community-wide action teams are poised to tackle the challenges that contribute to infant mortality. We focus on addressing racial disparities, decreasing extreme prematurity and eliminating sleeprelated deaths — proven strategies aimed to reduce (and sustain a low number of) infant deaths for decades to come. Alarmed by what many considered an First Year Cleveland is a community movement unsolvable problem, committed to ensuring that every baby born in Cuyahoga leaders representing County will celebrate their first birthday. every sector of the community came together in early 2016 and established First Year Cleveland to develop an effective, comprehensive and sustainable approach to solving infant mortality in our area. Early efforts have been encouraging — proving that success is possible — but much more needs to be done to keep our babies alive and healthy so they can reach their first birthday. Join us as we work together to reach the national goal set by the CDC for infant mortality by 2020.

We accomplish this by working with our three key stakeholders: clients, collaborators and community partners.

Collectively, JumpStart and its partner organizations have engaged more than 10,250 of these clients to date, helping them create more than 10,000 jobs and contribute $5.6 billion to the Ohio economy.

After a successful capital campaign in 2016, we were able to expand and update our facility, thereby increasing our bed capacity from 30 to 60 beds. This investment reflects our organization’s commitment to addressing our communities’ growing public health crisis — by offering care to any man who needs and wants help, regardless of his ability to pay.
WHAT WE DO
The Lantern provides free residential care to chemically dependent men, and educates and assists them with recovery from substance use disorders. Addiction is powerful, and it’s relentless, but it can be treated. Awareness, education and readily available resources are critical for rehabilitation. Because addicted individuals may be uncertain about entering treatment, taking advantage of available resources the moment people are ready for care is critical. That said, the Lantern provides these resources by acting as a safety net, and providing care for men who would otherwise be unable to access our public health system. The Lantern does not rely on government funding; rather, we concentrate our revenue strategies on private donations and community support to assure our programming remains free. We believe that everyone, regardless of their ability to pay, deserves access to care. Remember, there is hope. People do recover.

On average, a wish is granted every 34 minutes in the United States and its territories. We believe a wish experience can be a game-changer.

HOW TO HELP
Give: Support in Northeast Ohio is completely dependent upon the financial and in-kind support of area individuals, companies, foundations and civic organizations. Each year in Northeast Ohio, more than 360 children are diagnosed with a critical illness. Currently, our resources allow us to grant approximately 150 wishes in these areas annually, so we have the capacity to serve less than 40% of eligible wish kids. This means for every wish we grant, there are more sick children still waiting for a wish — and wishes can’t wait. Volunteer: Our mission is possible only with the dedication of our volunteers. You can help make the wishes of local children come true when you become a Make-A-Wish volunteer. To find out more about opportunities to become involved, visit our website.

Maria started praying for them every night, hoping the doctors would find a way to make them better. Those prayers continued until her own battle ended a year later on July 14, 2007. Maria’s prayers became an inspiration that ignited a movement — one that lives on today through the Prayers From Maria Foundation. Maria’s Field of Hope, our 25-acre sunflower field located along I-90 in What is the movement?

FUNDRAISING/EVENTS
Each July, Prayers From Maria hosts its award-winning Sunflower Soiree & Wine Festival. The 2018 Sunflower Soiree was held at Cleveland’s historic Coast Guard Station at Whiskey Island, while the Wine Festival returned to Rocky River for its ninth year. The events raised significant funds in support of the most promising childhood cancer research. In addition, Maria’s Field of Hope, our 25-acre sunflower field in Avon, hosts thousands of visitors each year and gracefully highlights the lack of funding for childhood cancer. It is planted in Maria’s memory, as a way to love and honor the courageous children now battling cancer, along with those we have lost. In 2017, Maria’s Field of Hope raised over $100,000 toward our mission of eradicating childhood cancer.

WHAT WE DO
United Way of Greater Cleveland, whose footprint encompasses Cuyahoga, Medina and Geauga counties, provides funding for local health and human service programs to improve lives and strengthen our communities. Since 1913, donors to United Way of Greater Cleveland have provided life-changing help to people in need, often in the direst situations. WHY IS FIGHTING POVERTY SO HARD? The root causes of poverty are deeply interconnected and complex — people who can’t read, can’t find jobs. They may lose their homes, so their children miss school and fall behind, trapping the next generation in the toxic cycle of poverty. It’s clear: meeting immediate needs is crucial, and we will never waver in that work. But it’s not enough. We need bold, breakthrough thinking. We need proactive, strategic approaches. We need changemakers. UNITED WAY IS LEADING THE WAY. Why us? We’re at the center of a network of the best minds in Cleveland. We can bring together leaders from our 78 human service agencies with our partner Cleveland changemakers convene at United Way’s corporate and community 2018 Annual Community Luncheon. leaders. We can bring changemakers to the table to start the conversation about ways to break the cycle of poverty. We will make every dollar donated for urgent needs work even harder and invest in solutions that break the cycle of poverty.

FUNDRAISING/EVENTS
What we see every day in the news and on the street are the symptoms of poverty. But, in reality, what we don’t see or think about is why people end up in situations of poverty. And if we don’t look deep below the surface, we will never gain true understanding to solve those root causes that hold back our community. So, we are innovating a bold next-generation strategy to address them. Our inventive thinkers, passionate givers and partners are fueling change by committing people, dollars and services to combat poverty. We are enhancing our Workplace Campaign — with multiple new resource streams– with the promise to invest every dollar entrusted to us wisely and effectively. By digging deep into data, we are identifying organizations that are confronting the most critical problems and can best achieve life-changing results. Through our COMMUNITY HUB MODEL and IMPACT INSTITUTE, our community investment process is transparent, integrated and solutions-driven.
