R E P O R T
s you read this report, the Centre County Community Foundation has
reached the age of 30. Three decades of growth, grantmaking, charitable
financial support and community leadership have been achieved. Our
Foundation had modest beginnings but once begun, donor enthusiasm soon
became contagious. Today, as you learn from this report, there are more than
340 separate funds, which in 2010 provided more than $800,000 in financial
support throughout Centre County. For thirty years, the Foundation has
supported nearly every public charity in our County.
With your help we can do much more. Our board is leading the Foundation
with a bold high-reaching strategic plan. We are determined to exceed $40
million in assets by 2015. We will achieve our goal through the generosity of
donors throughout Centre County, and by working collaboratively with other
organizations, institutions and community leaders.
Awards Dinner............................26
As one example, we’re working with the Centre County Federation of Public
Libraries to build a multimillion dollar technology fund. The Federation
received, through our Foundation, a $350,000 grant from the Knight
Foundation. This money will be used to increase access to online information for
county residents through our public libraries. New computers and high-speed
Internet connectivity will be installed, however ongoing financial support for
this vital public resource will be necessary. It is the purpose of the technology
fund to provide such ongoing support.
We have been ever mindful of our responsibility to be a good steward of the
funds we have been given. As this report informs you, we have fully recovered
from the setbacks experienced by all investors during recent years. Our assets
grew by a robust 14.3% during 2010. Through careful, prudent management we
were again able to reduce the cost-per-fund for operations to 1.3%.

Purpose
T
he Centre County Community Foundation was created in 1981 as a public charity dedicated
to meeting changing needs and assisting donors throughout Centre County. The Foundation
is a collection of philanthropic funds, each created by a different donor at a different time for
a different purpose. Each fund retains its own identity, donor-defined objectives and benefits
from pooled investments with other funds. Gifts to the Foundation are invested according to
our investment policy, and grants are then made from these funds to qualified local charitable
organizations.
The Centre County Community Foundation helps individuals, families and businesses pursue
their charitable interests conveniently, effectively and with maximum tax benefits. Donors may
create funds during their lifetimes, by a bequest, or by other deferred giving opportunities. The
Foundation can also help companies administer their contributions and manage endowments for
charitable agencies.
Funds may be established for a particular purpose or left undesignated so the Foundation’s Board
can direct funds to needs of highest priority. Through its competitive grants, the Foundation
supports not-for-profit organizations in Centre County – in the arts, education, the environment,
and health and social services – and chooses those projects that best meet our community’s needs.
For funds that are advised or designated by donors, we offer expertise and administrative assistance
to ensure that each grant is best fulfilling the donor’s charitable intent.
Our Mission To improve the quality of life in Centre County by providing enduring
support to community charities from the invested gifts of visionary donors.
Our Vision Sharing the Wealth, Shaping the Future

New Funds
E
ach year, generous donors make a special gift to the Foundation in order to create
a new fund. They do it for different reasons: to memorialize a loved one, to reward
the achievements of deserving locals or to support a cause that’s close to their hearts.
In 2010 seven new funds were created at the Centre County Community Foundation.
They were created to support a variety of people and organizations, from battered
women, to the physically disabled, to local music groups, but they all have one thing in
common: They will make Centre County a better place now, and in perpetuity.
Keno Beezer Fund
Although William “Keno” Beezer handed in
his keys on August 31, 2010 and began his
retirement, his interest in the welfare of the
youth he has supported for 37 years as Executive
Director of the Moshannon Valley YMCA was
not left at the door. That’s why his friends
established a scholarship fund in his name for
graduating seniors in the Philipsburg-Osceola
Area, West Branch Area, and Moshannon Valley
School Districts. In less than four months, the scholarship team consisting of Bud
O’Brien and Laura Bordas were able to endow the William “Keno” Beezer Scholarship
Fund in an amount approaching $50,000. Decisions on the scholarship recipient(s)
will be made by a committee initially chaired by Keno.

Memorial Fund
Casey and Amos Goodall created the Memorial Fund
in honor of their son, Christian Goodall, who died too
soon, as well as other Centre County residents whose
families designate the Fund to receive memorial
donations in honor of their family members. Each
year, the Foundation will allocate income from
the Fund in memory of all fund honorees. The
Foundation will maintain in perpetuity a list of the obituaries of all persons for whom
contributions were made.

Petrus Seeing-Eye Dog Fund
Carolyn had a special place in her heart for animals,
especially dogs and cats. A new chapter in life presented
Carolyn with the idea of dedicating herself to philanthropic
work. She was very excited about this, and went about
researching a niche where she could help not only people,
but also her beloved animals. Her life took a sudden turn
as illness overtook her, and she realized her newfound
dream would not materialize in her lifetime. During
this time, her brother had serious vision problems, and
suffered some permanent blindness. Those who knew her
best believe that this occurrence contributed to Carolyn’s
decision to gift a seeing-eye dog organization. It is a
personal and loving choice that speaks to her resolve to help both man and man’s best
friend.
Nancy Coffman Addison Fund
The Nancy Coffman Addison Fund was created to
support the Women’s Resource Center and St. Andrew’s
Episcopal Church in perpetuity. Historically, Nancy and
her husband, Arnold Addison, were supportive of the
mission of the Women’s Resource Center to provide
shelter and support for women and children from all
walks of life, as needed. Their admiration for Sylvia and Gerald Stein, whose work and
financial contributions were critical in the development of the Center, focused their
attention on this vital community service. The desire to contribute to St. Andrew’s
Episcopal Church reflected six decades of commitment to this faith community that
was Nancy and Arnold’s home. Nancy served in numerous capacities at the Church
over her lifetime and now rests in the Columbarium at St. Andrew’s with Arnold, her
husband of 60 years.
The R Fund
“One of the most important lessons we learned
from our parents, Bob and Donna Ricketts, was the
importance of giving back to our community. Each
year they would give my brother and me blank
checks for Christmas. What kid wouldn’t be excited
about this gift? At the start, we envisioned skis, a new
bike, and more clothes, but then we had our first
lesson in giving back. Our task was to take the checks and agree on local community
group(s) or organization(s) to receive the funds. The key word was agree, and each
year we were told we were being prepared for the future. The future is here with the
recent establishment of the R Fund at the Centre County Community Foundation. The
R Fund has been designed to give back to local community groups and organizations.
It was established by our parents as an everlasting lesson to us on the importance of
giving back to the community where we grew up and live.”
~Robyn and Bobby Ricketts

Award is to be administered by SCASD with proceeds from an endowment fund

and may be awarded to more than one recipient annually.
Creating your own fund
T
oday’s gift … your legacy. By endowing your gifts today, you will make a difference
during your lifetime and provide a gift that lasts forever.
Efficient, effective, impactful. When donors or charitable organizations work through
the Foundation to achieve their charitable goals, they benefit from the expertise of
experienced local program staff, community leadership and investment management.
Establishing your own named charitable fund does not require great wealth, nor is it
complicated. Through a named fund you can:
• provide ongoing support to your favorite organization.
• choose different charitable organizations to support each year during your
lifetime.
• make your own choices, or take advantage of our Foundation staff’s expertise to
help you address the community’s most pressing needs, or greatest opportunities.
• have the opportunity to distribute gifts during your lifetime, or leave a
lasting legacy, or both.
The staff at the Centre County Community Foundation will make it easy to create a
new charitable fund. We will do all the paperwork; often the procedure is completed
in just one meeting. If you are considering creating a fund and would like more
information, please contact us.

Charitable Gift Annuities
A
charitable gift annuity enables you to take an immediate income tax deduction
when you transfer cash or marketable securities to the Foundation in exchange
for the Foundation’s promise to make fixed annual payments to you for the duration of
your life. The fixed annual payments are determined according to the donor’s age and
will only be partially taxed. Payments can begin immediately or can be deferred for a
period of time as determined by you. The undistributed portion of the gift reverts to
the Foundation. Below is a listing of the charitable gift annuities currently held by the
Foundation.

Kathryn K. & Roy D. Shoemaker Charitable Trust
I
n 2005 a fund unlike any other was created by the last will and testament of Kathryn
K. Shoemaker to be administered through CCCF. Kathryn and Roy Shoemaker were
lifelong residents of Centre County, both passing away in 2005 after long happy lives
in the State College area. Roy was a businessman and farmer in the Centre Region.
Their love of the area inspired them to share their resources with the community. They
distributed a substantial portion of their estate to the Kathryn K. & Roy D. Shoemaker
Charitable Trust. Merrill Lynch Trust Company was named as Trustee and the Centre
County Community Foundation as the organization responsible for distribution to the
beneficiaries. The Trustee is in possession of the funds and manages the investment
of the funds while following the investment policy of the Centre County Community
Foundation. Disbursements from the trust come to the Foundation and are
distributed to the 13 charitable organizations named as beneficiaries, all of whom serve
Centre County residents.
Since its inception, the Kathryn K. & Roy D. Shoemaker Charitable Trust has
distributed $1,604,142. In 2010 the beneficiaries received the following distributions-
American Cancer Society
American Red Cross, Centre Communities Chapter
Centre HomeCare, Inc.

Financial Report
F
or 30 years the Centre County Community Foundation has been the steward of a precious community resource,
Centre County’s charitable endowment, composed of gifts from generous individuals, organizations, and
corporations. In managing this endowment the Centre County Community Foundation seeks to provide sufficient
funds to make current grants, while preserving the purchasing power of these charitable gifts forever. The region
has benefited from the power of this endowment which has grown, generating ever-increasing grant funds for all of
Centre County.
At the end of 2010, the Foundation’s total assets were
$22,789,000. This represents a 14.3% increase from
December 31, 2009 to December 31, 2010.
This growth came from two areas: investment returns
and contributions. Our investments returned
approximately 13% for 2010 and the Foundation
furthered its mission and received gifts of approximately
$1,577,000 during 2010. Meanwhile, our grant and
program payments for 2010 exceeded $831,000.
The finances of the Foundation are administered by the
Board of Directors which has ultimate responsibility for
all decisions. The Board works through its Executive
Committee and various other committees who oversee
different aspects of operations.
By Board policy the Foundation annually:
• Distributes a set percentage of the average asset
value from each fund annually for charitable needs.
In 2010 the distribution rate was 4%, but may be
changed from time to time to reflect market
returns and our fiduciary responsibility
to preserve the value of our funds. For this
calculation the average of the fund value over the
previous twenty quarters is used.
• Draws a percentage from each fund for operations:
1.3% in 2010. This is based on a variety of factors
including the asset base and operating budget.
• Pays approximately .2% for active investment
management.
This spending policy is consistent with most other
community foundations, and is designed to provide
steady and growing distributions back to the community.
The Foundation is fortunate to have a group of very
talented individuals volunteer their time and expertise as
members of this Investment Committee. The Investment
Committee recommends specific investment policy and
is responsible for guiding, monitoring and implementing
the policy and reporting performance results. Presently
the Foundation has working arrangements for financial
management with First National Bank, M&T Investment
PAG E 2 2
Group, Nestlerode & Loy, Merrill Lynch, Weinken
& Associates, and Smith Barney. Additional funds
are invested by the Investment Committee through
Vanguard and The Investment Fund for Foundations
(TIFF).
The assets of the Foundation are deployed in a variety
of investments in accordance with the investment policy.
It seeks to hold 40% to 80% of its assets in global
securities, 20% to 60% in fixed-income instruments
such as long-term bonds, debt-based mutual funds
and temporary cash investments, and up to 30% in
alternative assets in an effort to obtain higher yields.
This so-called discretionary class of assets allows
managers to move slightly outside the basic policy and
acquire positions in high-yield bonds, emerging markets,
particular market sectors or real estate, commodities, etc.
Overall, the portfolio is invested for capital appreciation.
At a minimum, the Foundation’s goal is to generate
long-term investment results sufficient to pay its grants,
operating, and investment expenses, while keeping pace
with inflation.
The fixed-income portfolio is diversified and consists
primarily of investment grade bonds, benchmarked
against the Barclay Aggregate Index.
Employing broad diversification as to investment style
and other major component weighting, the global
equity portfolio is benchmarked against the MSCI All
Country World Index, which includes broad categories
of U.S. equities, non-U.S. developed market equities and
emerging market equities.
The Foundation is exempt from federal income taxes
under Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code as
a publicly supported organization described in Section
501(c)(3). It is also exempt from state taxes and is
registered with the Pennsylvania Bureau of Charitable
Organizations. All gifts are accepted subject to the
Foundation’s Articles of Incorporation, By-Laws and
policies.
The following are preliminary (unaudited) results.
Copies of the annual audit report and IRS Form 990 are
available at the Foundation office.

compensation, independence, fiduciary responsibility and representation of the community.
2. Resource Development - includes parameters for administration of funds, disclosure to donors and
commitment to building long-term resources for varied community issues and causes.
3. Stewardship and Accountability - covers prudent investment and management of funds, transparent
record-keeping, use of funds for their intended purpose, annual audits and public availability of
financial information.
4. Grantmaking and Community Leadership - including standards related to broad and open
grantmaking programs, due diligence and responsiveness to changing community needs.
5. Donor Relations - encompassing guidelines for informing, educating and involving donors in
responding to community needs.
6. Communications - including openness to public scrutiny and frequent communication about
activities and finances.
