What is a Permanent Fund

A Publication of the Marshall County Community Foundation SPRING 2007 Generations Initiative, a matching gift program for Marshall County’s future Initiative The Marshall County Community Foundation (MCCF) is very pleased to announce an initiative that allows existing and new fund holders to benefit generations of Marshall County citizens. Every dollar contributed by a permanent fund holder, up to $100,000 per fund, will receive a 25-cent match from the MCCF Generations Initiative—adding a potential maximum of $25,000 extra to the permanent fund you have established. Contribute one dollar to your existing fund, and the MCCF will add a quarter. For every four dollars added to your existing fund, the MCCF will add a dollar. Make an additional gift of $100,000 to your fund and receive the maximum extra benefit of $25,000 in additional principal. The Foundation will provide a maximum of $500,000 of matching funds for the Generations Initiative, and matching Initiative funds will be awarded on a first come, first served basis through June 30, 2008 or until the $500,000 is expended. Individuals and groups are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity to establish a new permanent fund with a minimum $5,000. While the initial $5,000 cannot be matched through the Generations Initiative, all additional contributions Initiative beyond the initial investment will receive the matching grant from the Foundation. For example, a permanent fund created with a $10,000 investment quickly becomes one worth $11,250. A $50,000 permanent fund established within the timeframe of the initiative quickly has a value of $61,250. Investments in the Foundation consistently earn annual interest, but this initiative will allow you to enhance your fund’s assets almost immediately. Contributions made during a quarter will be matched on the first business day of the next quarter. For example, a contribution on May 15, 2007 will receive its match on July 1, 2007. Please note the Generations Initiative applies only to permanent funds with the MCCF. Non-permanent funds may convert and realize the match on all funds except the initial $5,000. The Generations Initiative is a wonderful opportunity for the citizens of Marshall County to leave a lasting benefit to future generations. The matching funds will strengthen each fund to provide even greater impact. Won’t you join with us in securing opportunities for our future generations? What is a Permanent Fund? Quite simply, a sum of money is given by the donor to the Foundation as an irrevocable asset that cannot be returned. The Foundation assures the donor in a written agreement that the principal of the fund will never be spent. The Foundation will invest and manage the monies. Annually, a portion of the earnings (interest) is used according to the donor’s wishes as specified in the agreement. For an example of MCCF funds helping Marshall County, see an abbreviated list on page 4. President’s Message As I sit here listening to the weather forecast predicting accumulating o snow within 24 hours and I look outside to the budding trees and feel the 71 temperature, I am reminded that the only constant is change. The weather changes, the seasons change and even the time in Indiana now changes. As much as I may think I don’t like change, I realize that without it, life would be mundane. Fortunately, this is not the case with the Marshall County Community Foundation. There are many great changes coming that have the potential to rock this community. Change at this level trickles (and sometimes rushes) through our county with far reaching, life altering impact. One major change within the Community Foundation is the arrival of Ms. Jennifer Maddox as executive director. Jennifer began on Valentine’s Day and is working hard to meet many residents and hear their concerns and hopes for this community. Read more about her in this newsletter and please stop in to meet her. The change I am very excited about is a new program—the Generations Initiative. This program will, for the first time in our history, match Foundation money with donor’s money as it is added to an existing permanently endowed fund. Matching money simply means that I can now give a monetary gift of my choice to one of over 200 funds held by the Community Foundation with the Foundation adding more money for every dollar I contribute! Everyone (yes, every individual and group) can and should participate in the Generations Initiative. It is explained on the cover, and any board member would love to talk with you or your organization about the impact it can have on our community. If you have considered opening a fund or adding to an existing fund, now is the time! This newsletter reports on changes taking place throughout the county through the impact of recent grants awarded by the Foundation. Needs being met include safety equipment for police, medical equipment, historical restoration, and leadership and youth programs. Counting the lives enriched because of the grants awarded in this county through the Community Foundation would be impossible. So if you are like me and want to maintain the status quo, and don’t want any change to come your way, please reconsider. Decide like me that change is necessary and good. The changes that are happening here are very exciting indeed! — Tammy Houin, president Marshall County Community Foundation Board of Directors Needs being met include safety equipment for police, medical equipment, historical restoration, and leadership and youth programs. Generations will be enriched because of the grants awarded in this county through the Community Foundation . Mission Statement To serve all of Marshall County, its people and its future through the growth and administration of endowment funding and philanthropy. 2 GENERATIONS | SPRING 2007 From the Executive Director May 1 marked an important and exciting new opportunity for the Marshall County community as the Foundation launched its Generations Initiative—a matching gift opportunity for Marshall County Community Foundation fund holders. The cover story of this newsletter details how the Community Foundation will match every dollar contributed to permanent funds with twenty-five cents. This is the first time the Foundation has provided a match from existing Foundation funds, and I am very pleased to be a part of this initiative as your new executive director. My background in investment management, agency management, not-for-profit experience and financial education all converge in this new position. In much the same way the background of your board of directors in all those areas, plus a sincere desire to help and improve the Marshall County community, have converged to bring you the Generations Initiative. We are about to embark on a new journey. Our staff and board members are prepared to help you create or enhance funds for changing the future of generations in our community. We all want to make a difference in the lives of others. The Generations Initiative will assist you in achieving new possibilities. We are ready to help you help others. —Jennifer S. Maddox, executive director Extensive search leads to Jennifer S. Maddox as executive director of the Foundation Jennifer S. Maddox has been on a listening tour, meeting with Marshall County Community Foundation (MCCF) board members, community leaders and residents to understand how best to help Marshall County. “Everyone I have met has been genuinely interested in building an even better community and is committed to serving the needs of Marshall County.” she said. She began her new role as executive director February 14 , coming to the Foundation as the manager of administration and finance in the Department of Physics at the University of Notre Dame. Prior to that, Maddox served as executive director of the Mental Health Association of St. Joseph County, Inc. She also has served as the development director of the South Bend Symphony Orchestra, and as the client services administrator for Criterion Investment Management Company, in addition to several roles on college faculty. “We took the time required to make an educated and solid choice about the next leader of the Foundation,” said MCCF Board President Tammy Houin. “The Foundation has developed significantly since its founding in 1992. We have had many, many good people involved, and their ideas, their care, enthusiasm and generosity have led us to the success we enjoy today—success that financially underwrites great things in our communities throughout Marshall County. Our goal was to find someone with the experience and abilities to build on what we have, and we knew we had the right person after talking with Jennifer.” One of Maddox’ many goals is for every Marshall County citizen to understand what the Foundation can do, long-term, for Marshall County. “It’s an organization that will help you make a difference in the lives of others, not only today but also for future generations,” she said. “The Foundation exists to provide a means for individuals and organizations to give to others, to invest those contributions, and, in turn, to give the income from the investments to a variety of needs in all areas of Marshall County. You can entrust your contributions to the Foundation, and it will make sure your wishes are carried out forever. It’s not a new concept that needs to be proven, nor is it difficult to understand or difficult to become involved with,” she said. Armed with a bachelor’s degree in finance from the University of Houston, and an MBA from Notre Dame’s Mendoza College of Business, Maddox is well prepared to guide the growth of the MCCF. Her experiences will benefit the Foundation, too. At Notre Dame, she managed funds totaling $14 million. She assisted faculty with $9 million in grant proposals and contracts administration. She also accomplished the day-to-day responsibilities that are integral to a successful foundation—managing personnel, finances, databases, proposals, facilities, publications, technology needs, and communications. At the Mental Health Association, Maddox was responsible for all aspects of managing the not-forprofit agency, and the lessons learned there will benefit the MCCF. She re-established an image of integrity and dynamism for the agency, as well as collaborative relationships with agency peers, affiliated organizations, political offices, governmental agencies, and the community. Along with more than 100 volunteers she recruited, she established new programs, increased the agency’s visibility and, most importantly, increased effectiveness through new grants and increased contributions. —”Extensive Search” continued on page 6 MARSHALL COUNTY COMMUNITY FOUNDATION 3 Keeping the heat on is not glamorous; it’s essential The hardest dollars to raise are those for operating funds. There are many wonderful groups and foundations that eagerly give money to programs. Those givers pay for the delivery of a service or supplies for an activity. Programmatic givers are very important—they funnel contributions to programs that meet real needs. Operating funds are real needs, too. Agencies that provide programs must also pay rent, utilities, unemployment taxes, and other unglamorous necessities. Without a steady income stream to cover operating costs, agencies are unable to deliver needed programs in our community. Help address this issue by establishing an endowed fund in the Community Foundation for the sole purpose of providing a steady stream of unrestricted income to your beloved not-for-profit agency. A $20,000 endowment will provide $1,000 annually to a worthy organization. With that $1,000 annual gift, the organization can pay part of the cost of health insurance for an employee. A larger endowment of $100,000 could provide $5,000 per year to offset rent or utility costs. A larger endowment could contribute to the salary of the director or church leader. Establishing an endowment for operating funds is one way to assure an organization in which you’re particularly interested will have the fundamental support it needs to be available to help not only today, but to be there for future generations. In your words ... “Our board had thought about starting its own charitable foundation for the Marshall-Starke Development Center, but the Community Foundation made that unnecessary. We put an initial investment of $25,000 into a fund, and today we promote gifts to it in all of our communications. It’s a community effort through the Community Foundation, and those tax-deductible gifts help us fund programs and equipment. Over time, no organization like Marshall-Starke can assume funding will remain in place. “I would tell everyone that the revenue our fund generates helps offset costs and keeps this organization viable in perpetuity. Regardless of what happens at the national or state level, and regardless of how far into the future something might happen regarding funding, our fund provides Marshall County residents with a way to support this Marshall County program for as long as the need makes it necessary for us to provide developmentally disabled residents with vocational and work training, help with daily life skills, Early Head Start, Head Start, and several other very worthwhile programs.” —Mike Lintner, director, Marshall-Starke Development Center The Marshall-Starke Development Center Fund EXAMPLES OF FUNDS HELPING THE MARSHALL COUNTY COMMUNITY EDUCATION/SCHOLARSHIP • Argos Dollars For Scholars • Bremen Dollars For Scholars • Culver Alumni & Community Scholarship Fund • Walter A.

It’s a donor-advised fund we’ve used to give to Lutheran churches in Culver and South Bend, to the Lake Maxinkuckee Environmental Fund, and to a boy’s home in Richmond that’s supported by the Lutheran Church. “We wanted to benefit Marshall County, to take advantage of having our fund administered by a professional staff, and to support the community after we’re gone. If we simply gave money every year to what’s important to us, that wouldn’t be carried on once we’re gone, but those organizations will be no less important then and no less in need of support. We enjoy knowing that through our fund, we can continue to provide support in perpetuity to those organizations.” —Pete Trone, retired, “lover of Culver and of Lake Maxinkuckee” The Trone Family Fund “When I got involved with the Foundation in 1992, I was so enthused that my wife and I started the Gooch Family Fund. Our parents, all four of them, have a collective one year of college education—yet they instilled in us a great understanding of the importance of education. Our Fund is self-directed, so we can change its focus, but my wife and I are Bremen High School graduates from the Class of 1968. There’s a scholarship that honors a deceased classmate who was my wife’s cousin, so we funnel our fund gifts through that scholarship. He was a doctor, and the scholarship goes to a student interested in pursuing anything in the medical field. The goal is for the scholarship to reach $1,000 annually, and we look forward to growing our fund through our retirement years.” —Dwayne Gooch, stained glass artist The Gooch Family Fund “As soon as the Foundation was started, we knew we wanted to be a part of it. We’ve used it because it has multiple benefits—it’s extremely well managed; we wanted to support the community; the Lilly Endowment support has encouraged us because of the confidence it has in our local Foundation; and it provides professional fund management through a mission we appreciate—serving the people of Marshall County. “Both the hospital and the hospital foundation contribute to funds. As the hospital has money to invest for later needs, our non-permanent fund allows us to receive a good rate of return and easy access to our investment. We also invest in a permanent fund, knowing we won’t have access to the principal. We’re intentional about this being an investment with dividends for the future. “The hospital also has been a beneficiary of the Foundation’s generosity. A recent potential grant of $75,000 allowed us to offer our employees a two-for-one match on gifts they make to the hospital. If we contribute $150,000, the grant provides the additional money to reach the $225,000 goal, and this has been a great inspiration for internal giving. Hospital employees already have contributed in excess of $100,000.” —Scott Graybill, president and CEO, Community Hospital of Bremen The Community Hospital of Bremen Fund “The beautiful thing about the fund is that it provides the donor with a tax deduction. To start a fund you talk with the Foundation staff about what you want, you write a check, and bang, you’re keeping someone or something funded in perpetuity. I just love it. I love what the Foundation has done for us. I can’t think of a better way for anyone to put their money to work for themselves or for the community. “The Culver Alumni and Community Scholarship is a great community effort. The Foundation staff set it up, and the Kiwanis handles the fund raising and recipient selection. Kiwanis was funding three $500 scholarships. Today, we’re funding three $1,000 scholarships. The fund has increased our gift giving, and it has increased the number of gifts we receive. We opened it less than four years ago, and today it has more than $50,000 in assets earning interest we give to Culver students wanting to further their education—at trade school, a two-year college such as Ancilla, Purdue, I.U., you name it.” —Jim Weirich, 1965 Culver High School graduate and 35-year spring maker “for everything from mouse traps to moon landings” The Culver Alumni and Community Scholarship Fund MARSHALL COUNTY COMMUNITY FOUNDATION 5 Jayne Gibson named assistant director of the Community Foundation Jayne Gibson has been named assistant director of the Marshall County Community Foundation. Her third promotion over a nearly eight-year tenure, the move to assistant director recognizes her hard work and dedication to the organization and its mission. Gibson began as a secretary for both the Marshall County Community Foundation and the United Way of Marshall County on October 24, 1999. For the first three and a half years, her main responsibilities included managing data for annual United Way campaigns and curriculum and event planning for the Leadership Marshall County program. In 2004, she was promoted to administrative assistant for both organizations, taking responsibility for learning and utilizing the FIMS Accounting System for the Foundation. For the first time, in-house staff could manage funds through the new FIMS software. From October, 2006 until February, 2007, Gibson served as interim executive director of the Community Foundation. A Marshall County native, Gibson is a graduate of LaVille Jr. Sr. High School. Prior to joining the Foundation staff, she held positions with the Martha Washington Inn in Abingdon, Virginia, as well as with Sunsation and the Moose Lodge in Plymouth. She and her husband, Ron, have one daughter, Shawna, who follows her mother’s education path and is a sixthgrader at LaVille Elementary School. “Extensive Serach.” continued from page 3— “I look forward to building on the success of the Marshall County Community Foundation,” Maddox said. “With nearly $25 million already at work to benefit the people, programs and future of this county, it’s clear that the Foundation has an engaged Board and solid leadership. Working with that group, and with all the people I’ve met since accepting this role, it’s clear that we’re poised to make great progress together, to take the Foundation to a place of extreme importance in the life of the county. Already the Foundation is providing very important financial support to new and developing programs, and to assure that it does that in perpetuity we will work hard today in order to support a great tomorrow.” Marshall County has a solid asset with Maddox leading the Foundation. In 2002 she received the University of Notre Dame Award of Merit. She has been a YWCA Tribute to Women Nominee and twice received the Transamerica Foundation Outstanding Community Volunteer Award. Her 30-year history of community service is extensive, and highlights include board service with La Casa de Amistad, Notre Dame’s United Way committee, Notre Dame’s mentor program, Big Brothers/Big Sisters, the Muscular Dystrophy Association, Fort Bend County Women’s Shelter, the Mental Health Association, and Ladies International Friendship Exchange. She also has been a Court Appointed Special Advocate volunteer and has been an ardent fund raiser for the Chad Edward Pearson Memorial Scholarship Fund at Indiana University South Bend. Maddox has chaired the scholarship committee since its inception 10 years ago. The daughter of John and Marie Maddox, Jennifer was raised in South Bend. She and her husband, Mark Stevens, a security screener with the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), moved to Marshall County one week after beginning her employment with the MCCF. Both look forward to building friendships in the community, in addition to building on the solid foundation already in place at the MCCF. In your words ... “As a school district, we are very fortunate to be in a community with people who think about leaving a legacy to students year after year. I believe there are at least 20 funds in the Community Foundation that benefit Plymouth High School seniors through scholarships, and there’s nothing I enjoy more than the feeling I get at the annual awards convocation. “The Plymouth School Board Scholarship Fund is supported through sales of the education license plate, and that Fund allows the Board to give one or two scholarships a year to students who attend the alternative school. It helps them further their education at a four-year, two-year or technical college. The other funds are from thoughtful, generous people with foresight to develop a legacy to help students. Maybe the fund is in memory of a student or in honor of a person who accomplished something in a given field. “We all reach a point in our lives when we think about leaving a legacy, and what a great legacy we leave when we not only help our community through the Foundation, but we also help students year after year through funds established specifically to help them pursue their dreams.” —John Hill, superintendent, Plymouth Community Schools The Plymouth School Board Scholarship Fund 6 GENERATIONS | SPRING 2007 SPRING 2007 GRANT RECIPIENTS Twice a year, the MCCF Grants Committee meets the needs of Marshall County residents through organizations requiring funding to create, improve or expand programs.
