The Importance of
ip
Community Leadersh
Dear Friends:
We have so much to celebrate! The past year saw a tremendous amount of giving back
by generous philanthropists, as well as the vital nonprofits that provide our residents
with critical needs.
In 2010, The Community Foundation received more than $10 million in donations
and granted out $10 million to worthy nonprofits – the vast majority of which are in the
greater Greensboro area. Through our grants and partnerships we are impacting jobs
and addressing issues from homelessness to the performing arts. But more importantly
we are creating opportunities for all our citizens to be engaged in our great community.
Last year, we achieved an important milestone by raising $5 million toward endowments
supporting our strategic initiatives, including the Future Fund, the Public Art
Endowment and Women to Women.
Now the time has come for The Community Foundation and others to reframe our
vision when it comes to the need for leadership – to collectively address our area’s
most pressing issues. We at the Foundation have been talking with other groups about
consolidating resources to work more efficiently and collectively. We feel that this
approach is crucial to achieving the greater impact we all want to achieve.
We created the Community Leadership Investment Fund, a significant vehicle through which
crucial resources are raised to support “the big picture” issues that will shape Greensboro’s
identity and direction in coming years. When you invest in the Community Leadership
Investment Fund, you are joining The Community Foundation to address critical issues facing
our community that require innovation and long-range thinking. We need everyone’s help to
marshal the necessary resources to do this efficiently and effectively.
A recent example of how The Community Foundation demonstrated leadership is our
work with the Interactive Resource Center, the day center which opened this spring for
people experiencing homelessness. We facilitated the donation of a building for this
organization, and our staff worked diligently to convene the different entities necessary
to make the IRC a reality.
Another example is the Foundation’s recent grant to the United Arts Council to launch a
dialogue about the possibility of a downtown performing arts center.
Collective efforts, as well as the Community Leadership
Investment Fund, are needed now, in these tight budget times.
The need for strong community leadership – by individuals,
foundations and businesses alike – has never been as imperative
as it is right now. It is time for leadership that embraces change,
not just drives it. To this end, our board has adopted a new
strategic plan for the Foundation with a priority focus
on leadership.
Louise Brady
We need everyday people and area corporations to step forward
collectively as neutral, objective players. Simply put, we aren’t
setting our priorities – it’s not clear who and what we want Greensboro to be. And if, in
fact, we are clear, I suggest that we aren’t demonstrating the courage to express it and
make it happen.
This is not to say that great things aren’t happening in Greensboro. Some examples
include Action Greensboro’s work with higher education, the new day center for the
homeless, the United Way’s Voices/Choices Report and the United Arts Council’s look at
the economic impact of the arts on our community.
But these individual reports should fit within a broader picture of where Greensboro
is heading. Now is the time for Greensboro to stop looking in its rear-view mirror for a
white knight to ride in and steer us. We need to come together – collectively – to make
the positive impact we want and need.
Everybody has something to give. Let’s all invest our time, talent and treasure
in our community.
Sincerely,
Louise F. Brady
Chair, Board of Directors

Foundation Leadership
Two Ways To Invest in CLIF
The first way is by companies making a direct contribution
at a wide range of giving levels:
• Participating Investor – $2,500
• Active Investor – $5,000
• Major Investor – $10,000
• Principal Investor – $25,000
Introducing CLIF: A New Fund
To Encourage Leadership Giving
Local businesses can now partner with The Community Foundation to play an integral role
in making Greensboro an even better place. Participation in the new Community Leadership
Investment Fund (CLIF) positions companies alongside The Community Foundation as a
leader in a wide range of community projects, such as:
•The development of the Interactive Resource Center, a day center for people
experiencing homelessness, which provides a variety of services, from nursing
and laundry to 12-step meetings and job counseling;
• Providing support to area nonprofits through our Community Grants Program
and The Guilford Nonprofit Consortium;
• Growing strategic endowments to create permanent funding sources for important
issues in our community, such as Women to Women and The Public Art Endowment;
• Actively participating in Action Greensboro and its efforts to enhance
the attractiveness of Greensboro to businesses, individuals and families;
• Involving young professionals in our community through The Future Fund;
• Promoting grassroots action through Building Stronger Neighborhoods; and
•The creation and oversight of IMPACT Greensboro, a diversity and leadership
training curriculum.
“When area businesses invest in the Community Leadership Investment Fund, they make
possible these and other community leadership services of The Community Foundation
not supported by traditional administrative fees earned on funds under management,”
said Walker Sanders, Foundation president.
• Primary Investor – $50,000 and more
A second way to invest is through creating a Corporate Donor-Advised Fund.
This approach helps businesses meet their charitable giving goals while letting
The Community Foundation do the administrative work. With a Corporate
Donor-Advised fund, grants can be disbursed from the fund over time, providing
a business the chance to make thoughtful decisions and have strategic impact.

performance excellence.
The schools split a $10,000
award and shared the Humphrey
Cup trophy.
Elizabeth Carruthers

Outright Gifts
Cash: Fully deductible up to 50 percent of the donor’s adjusted gross income in any one
year. Excess can be carried forward for up to five additional years.
Appreciated Securities (Stocks and Bonds): Avoids capital gains tax on the appreciated
portion of the gift. Full fair market value is deductible as a charitable contribution up to 30
percent of adjusted gross income. Excess can be carried forward for up to five additional years.
IRA Distributions: Individuals can use IRA assets to benefit the charities of their choice and
should consult their tax advisors accordingly.
Life Insurance: If you name The Community Foundation as owner and beneficiary of a life
insurance policy, you receive an immediate tax deduction that typically approximates the cash
surrender value. Further premium payments are deductible as a charitable contribution.
Working with
ation
The Community Found
Other Assets: You can contribute real property, mutual fund shares, limited partnerships or
other business interests.
You can make our area a better place to live and work by partnering with the Community
Foundation. The Community Foundation offers a wide range of giving options to make
it easy for you to establish a fund or contribute to an already existing fund.
• Outright gifts to the Foundation can include cash, securities, real estate, life insurance
or other assets.
• Life income plans are charitable remainder trusts or annuities that allow you to take an
immediate tax deduction for your gift and receive an income stream for life.
• Remainder gifts are assets left to the Foundation at your death, such as pension plans,
life insurance or the proceeds from the sale of a house.

Miss North Carolina 1963
and nationally known
humorist, and Guilford
County Commissioner Kay
Cashion meet at the Annual
Luncheon. Robertson was
the keynote speaker.
Life Income Plans
Charitable Remainder Trusts: Charitable remainder trusts pay lifetime income to you or
your named beneficiaries – either a fixed percentage of the fair market value or a fixed dollar
amount. Assets are transferred to your named charitable fund to support your giving goals
when the trust is terminated.
Charitable Gift Annuities: You receive a guaranteed income stream and an immediate tax
deduction. After paying a lifetime annuity to you and your spouse, the remaining principal is
transferred to your named charitable fund to accomplish your charitable goals. If you choose,
you can receive the income tax deduction now but defer income until later.
Remainder Gifts
Bequests: You can establish or add to your named fund through a bequest in your will or trust.
Pension Plans: Since a retirement plan produces taxable income and an heir must pay tax
on disbursements, it can be an excellent asset to transfer to a charity.
Life Insurance: Insurance proceeds payable to the Foundation at your death will not be
subject to federal estate taxes.
Other Assets: You can contribute real property, mutual fund shares, limited partnerships
or other business interests.

How to Establish Your Relationship with The Community Foundation:
The Community Foundation makes it easy to establish a charitable fund that carries your name,
commemorates a special event, supports a special project or honors a favorite organization,
friend or family member. You can choose when and how to make gifts from your fund or you can
rely on the Foundation to determine how to best make an impact in the community.
The assets you use to establish your fund can range from bequests and outright gifts of cash
and securities to a trust that provides a steady stream of income during your lifetime. So
explore your options and select the approach that works best for you.
To get started, our Foundation team partners with you – and your professional advisors
if you choose – to complete a simple, six-step process:
1. Define a charitable purpose or intent for your fund.
2.Decide whether you will determine which grants are made (donor-advised funds) or whether
you will leave those decisions to the Foundation (community grantmaking funds).
3. Select a name for your fund.
4. Designate current and successor fund advisors, as necessary.
5. Complete a simple governing document to make your intentions crystal clear.
6.Contribute an initial, tax-deductible gift of cash, securities, real estate, IRA distributions or life insurance
to establish the fund. You can add to it at any time and in any dollar amount.
If you would like to explore setting up your own charitable fund at The Community Foundation, please
contact John Whisnant, development officer, at (336) 379-9100, ext. 117, or email [email protected].

Your Foundation Relationship
Charitable
Funds
Establish a fund in your name!
Any of the options below can be established in your name, or in the name of
your family, your organization or anyone you wish to honor. All grants distributed
from the fund you establish – today and in the future – are then awarded to
charities in the name of that fund. It’s a great way to always be involved with,
and remembered for, your community investment.
Eric Rowles, President and CEO of Leading to Change, Inc.,
inspires members of our Teen Grantmaking Council during their
annual grantmaking celebration. Area teens awarded more than
$9,000 to worthy causes in 2010.
The following are great giving options. Choose the one that’s right for you!
Donor-advised funds. You can have ongoing involvement in the use of your gift.
You work with our professional program staff, identifying ways to use dollars from the
donor-advised fund you establish to address the issues and needs you care about most.
Your recommendations are submitted to our local board for approval; we then distribute
grant dollars.
Unrestricted funds. Your gift can address ever-changing community needs – including
future needs that often cannot be anticipated at the time your fund is established. We
evaluate all aspects of community well-being – arts and culture, economic development,
education, environment, health and human services, neighborhood revitalization and more.
The flexibility of your unrestricted gift enables The Community Foundation’s program experts
to respond to the community’s most pressing needs, today and tomorrow.
Field of interest funds. You can target your gift to address needs in an important area
of community life such as Arts, AIDS, Aging, At-risk Youth. You identify your personal
interest area when making your gift; our board awards grants to community organizations and
programs that are making a difference in the area you select.
8
Scholarships. You can invest your gift in our community’s future and show students you
care, all with the guidance and personal services of The Community Foundation. You determine
the criteria students must meet to receive the scholarship you establish. With your assistance,
students achieve their academic and career-oriented goals – from preschool to postgraduate work.
Designated funds. You can direct your gift to a specific nonprofit organization or purpose.
Help provide ongoing funding for a senior center, museum or virtually any nonprofit charitable
organization. Nonprofit organizations can use a designated fund through The Community
Foundation to build their endowment and enhance their ability to accept large and complex gifts.
Supporting organizations. You can use your gift to establish a comprehensive alternative
to a private foundation – with only a fraction of the administrative responsibilities and
cost. You select some of the board members, maintain personal involvement and support
the causes and organizations you care about while enjoying the favorable tax treatment of
a public charity. Leave investment management, start-up costs, grant administration and
reporting to The Community Foundation.

Women to Women, approaching $3 million
fundraising goal, plans Celebration Luncheon
featuring trailblazer, ‘Woman of the Year’
FALL CELEBRATION
Wednesday, November 16
Special Guest Speaker:
Dee Dee Myers
For updates, follow us on Facebook
and visit www.CFGG.org!
Women to Women grew exponentially in the past year.
The first grantmaking endowment in Greensboro devoted to causes relevant to women
and families, Women to Women is closing in on its initial $3 million fundraising goal. Once
it meets this crucial milestone, Women to Women will be able to award up to $150,000 in
grants annually to worthy recipients that have “the big idea.” In its grantmaking, Women
to Women is focusing on the areas of education, social services, the environment, health
and the arts, as they pertain to women and families.
In 2010 under the leadership of Ann Morris and Pam Stearns, the endowment awarded
its first grant to the Sherri Denese Jackson Foundation for the Prevention of Domestic
Violence, Inc. The $25,000 grant was transformative because it allowed the organization
to double its service capacity in some areas.
Women to Women will present a second $25,000 grant toward an effort benefiting
education at its Celebration Luncheon on Wednesday, Nov. 16. The special guest at the
event will be Dee Dee Myers, who in 1993 became the first woman to serve as White
House press secretary. She also is the author of Why Women Should Rule the World, a
bestselling memoir that also “explores the trials women have boldly faced throughout
history to achieve opportunities in places where their presence was once denied.”
Women to Women also is proud to announce that it has formed a strong partnership with
the News & Record, the Presenting Sponsor of this year’s luncheon. The newspaper has
10
signed on in support
of the endowment
at the Founding
Donor level ($25,000
or higher), and at the
luncheon we
will honor the
Woman of the Year,
a new award given
in the News &
Record’s name.

The Public Art Endowment
Left: “Standing Vase with
Five Flowers”
Right: “Entrance
to a Garden”
Sculpture to grace Green Valley Road,
thanks to efforts by the Public Art Endowment
Many people like to receive flowers, and the city of Greensboro will accept a special
bouquet this fall, thanks to the Public Art Endowment.
Standing Vase with Five Flowers, a sculpture by noted artist James Surls, will adorn the
median of Green Valley Road, just outside the entrance to the Proximity Hotel. Trustees of
the Endowment chose the piece as their 2011 long-term installation.
As of the trustees’ Annual Meeting in May 2011, the Endowment neared the halfway
mark of its initial $2 million fundraising drive and boasted 130 trustees, including 11 full
trustees and 20 trustee groups.
The Endowment also gratefully received a $100,000 gift from David and Lauren Worth,
who completed their role as the fund’s first co-chairs. An advisory committee has been
established to guide the next important phase of the Endowment’s fundraising efforts.
Committee members include Adair Armfield, Fran Davis, Jane and Richard Levy, Kathryn
Long, Skip Moore, Bill Porter and Russ Robinson.
With the installation of the Surls sculpture (scheduled for Sept. 27, 2011), the Public Art
Endowment has now provided Greensboro with three unique pieces of public art. Guardian II
by Billy Lee, made possible by a gift from Richard and Jane Levy and the employees of
their company HBD, Inc., watches over the grounds of the Old Guilford County Courthouse.
12
And in September 2010, trustees unveiled Entrance to a Garden, a
whimsical sculpture by Dennis Oppenheim, on the front lawn of the
VF/Wrangler Corp. building downtown.
The Endowment “is a very positive thing. I wish we had them
in every city,” Oppenheim said at the unveiling. “It’s got a
very interesting role here,” he said of the Endowment. “It’s unique. I’ve never come
across anything quite like it. Anything that helps art operate in the public has got to be
applauded, so I’m very grateful that they could make this happen.”
Tragically, Oppenheim died just three months later. The future of Entrance to a Garden, and
whether it will remain in Greensboro permanently, is still under discussion.
In 2010, Endowment trustees enjoyed an art-oriented trip to New York, and they are
planning a similar field trip to Los Angeles in fall 2011.
The Public Art Endowment was established in 2008 with a generous lead gift from Schell
Bray Aycock Abel and Livingston PLLC in honor of the firm’s 20th anniversary.
The Community Foundation believes that art is closely tied to a city’s identity and the
people who inhabit it.

Future Fund Pig Pickin’
Sept. 30, 2011
Future Fund awards $40,000 in grants
and achieves its $1 million fundraising goal
of Arthur and Desiree Dick. The event raised $30,000. Another pig pickin’ is planned for
Friday, Sept. 30, at the home of Jim and Louise Brady.
The Future Fund of The Community Foundation achieved its $1 million endowment
fundraising goal – just in time for its milestone 10th anniversary.
Jay Kenerly is chair of Future Fund in 2011. Durant Bell is chair-elect.
“We are so excited to have achieved this important goal,” said Jay Kenerly, Future Fund
chair. “This is a great example of how successful philanthropy can be accomplished
when we work as a group.”
With its $1 million endowment – one of the largest endowed grantmaking funds
controlled by young adults in the United States – Future Fund will now be able to grant
$40,000 a year to worthy nonprofit organizations in the Greensboro area.
In 2010, with a grantmaking theme of “Educational Programs for Children and Youth,”
Future Fund awarded grants totaling $40,000 to six area organizations including
BackPack Beginnings, Men-Tors Association, NC A&T University, Opportunities
Unlimited of Greensboro, Cove Creek Gardens and Tristan’s Quest.
“Promoting Civic and Community Involvement” is Future Fund’s grants theme for 2011.
Last fall, Future Fund organized one of its largest parties ever – a pig pickin’ at the home
14
Future Fund is a fresh approach to philanthropy. Its members are a group of young
leaders from the Greensboro area who are committed to making our community a better
place and improving the quality of life for all of our citizens. Future Fund members have
this impact on their community by contributing to a permanent endowment that makes
grants to build a better Greensboro.
Future Fund provides an innovative alternative for those who aren’t ready to establish a
Community Foundation fund of their own. For as little as $50 annually for students and
$125 annually for adults, you can pool your resources with others in the community and
put your philanthropic dreams into action.
Membership fees and gifts underwrite the Future Fund endowment and help you make
a far greater impact on the community than any of us can make on our own. You’ll have a seat
at the table when funding decisions are made and can sponsor grants for worthy organizations.

Alamance Foundation Board
of Directors
In 20th Year, Alamance
Foundation Achieves Growth
By Fairfax Reynolds
As we celebrate our 20-year anniversary, exciting things are
happening at the Alamance Foundation, thanks to the support and
contributions of the people of Alamance County.
The Alamance Foundation experienced significant growth in 2010,
closing the year with assets of $10,690,173 in 79 funds. The
consolidation of the Alamance Educational Foundation into the
Alamance Foundation was completed during the year, and in May
we were pleased to award scholarships to numerous graduating
seniors of the Alamance Burlington School System.
In addition, the AEF contribution to our permanent community
grantmaking fund increased that fund to over $500,000 at year’s
end. This significantly increases the grants committee’s capacity
to address community needs as they arise and allows us to make
great strides toward our $1 million goal for our community
grants fund.
24
Our growth in assets was based not only on a strong level of
donor gifts but also on outstanding investment returns from our
investment manager, Trust Company of the South. The 2010 annual
return of the Foundation funds was 14.08 percent, measured
against a benchmark of 12.80 percent. Investment returns for one-,
three- and five-year periods have exceeded benchmarks.
The Foundation board is working to increase the visibility and
impact of the Alamance Foundation in our community. We are
encouraged by the support of our donors and remain focused
on our mission of serving as a voice in addressing emerging
community challenges and promoting philanthropy among our
fellow citizens. We are excited to be a part of a special community
and appreciative of the generosity its citizens have shown toward
the Alamance Foundation over the past 20 years.
Fairfax Reynolds is chair of the Alamance Foundation Board of Directors.
