2013 Annual Report
Helping people make a difference in the lives of others.
Partners for a Stronger Community
Mission Statement
The Summit Foundation strives to inspire donors, build partnerships and mobilize resources
to support community organizations in Summit County(and the surrounding Communities) that foster
Health & Human Service, Education, Art & Culture, Sports & Recreation and Environmental Stewardship.
Dear Friends of The Summit Foundation,
In 2008, The Summit Foundation’s leadership set a lofty goal: double the distributions made to our community
through grants and scholarships in the next five years.
We are beyond thrilled to note that we have met – and, in fact, exceeded – that goal.
In 2008, we distributed $997,340 to nonprofit organizations and students in Summit, Lake, Park and Grand
Counties. Thanks to your generosity, ongoing collaboration with our ski area partners and the benevolence of our
donor advised funds, The Foundation awarded over $2 million in grants and scholarships to our mountain
communities in 2013.
All the staff and trustees are proud to live in a community that supports so many vital causes!
In addition to our annual grant-making and scholarship awards, The Summit Foundation initiated and
facilitated the following projects to distribute this level of support to the community:
- A Youth Giving Council was developed, through which students at Summit High School have created a
mini-grant program to support youth-related programs and activities. The ski areas allocated one
additional transferable pass specifically to support this new effort.
- Our second special initiative – a $50,000 grant each of the next three years – was approved to support
the CATCH program, which is providing healthy after-school activities to elementary students.
- Several donors partnered with us to support Keystone Science School as it formed its own 501(c)(3)
organization and strengthened its future.
For the second season, we sold out of all 300 Patron Pass Medallions generously provided by our ski areas,
raising over $1 million from this program alone.
As we look toward our 30th year, it is very rewarding to reflect on the $18.7 million The Foundation has now
distributed throughout our mountain communities.
You have been instrumental in that success.
At The Summit Foundation, we appreciate every individual who has bought or sold a rubber duck, has responded
to an appeal with a kind gift, or has designated The Summit Foundation in their estate plan. Our supporters
become ambassadors by spreading the message about The Foundation with their friends and colleagues. It is
because of you that we have been able to meet and exceed our goals.
With sincere thanks,
Kevin McDonald,
President

As a result of a public-private
partnership established in
2012 between the Board
of County Commissioners,
the Town of Breckenridge
Council, the Summit County
Library Foundation and the
Breckenridge Heritage
Alliance, the Library
Foundation is engaged as a
lead capital fund-raiser to
facilitate the rehabilitation of
the Old Schoolhouse on
Harris St. in Breckenridge.
The project will include a
new, expanded South Branch library
for Breckenridge, a community center,
a modernized Speakeasy Theater and
offices for several nonprofit groups.
Early on, it was realized that strong
local community support would be
necessary if this goal was to be achieved
and therefore an approach was made to
The Summit Foundation to elicit their
advice and financial support. The
Summit Foundation generously agreed
to support the project and, as a result,
The Library Foundation has been able
to secure other substantial donations from
a wide range of businesses, individuals
and foundations within Summit County
and the State of Colorado.
Thank you to The Summit Foundation
for being a leader in our fund-raising
efforts for this new community center
and library.

The Summit Foundation contracts with Mission Spark
on Impact and Outcome Measurement Initiative
As 2013 came to a close, The Summit
Foundation began discussions about how
to measure the impact of our grant-making.
In an effort to build the most effective
grant-making process, the key questions
the Board and staff asked include:
• Can we develop measurements that
identify what impact our grants are having
in the community?
• Can we provide an easy to use
measurement tool that will allow both
The Foundation and funded nonprofits to
evaluate their impact in the community?
• Are we “moving the needle” in making
Summit County and our neighboring
communities a better place?
• What can The Foundation do to have a
greater impact?
After reviewing proposals from six
consultants, The Summit Foundation has
selected Mission Spark to assist with this
initiative. Mission Spark is working with
The Foundation to develop recommendations
for outcome measurement indicators and a
structure/process for implementing outcome
measurements in the grant-making process
of The Summit Foundation.
The initial work on the initiative includes
research into best practices in outcome
measurements and return on investment
indicators used by other grant-making
organizations. An important part of the
initiative will be the engagement and input
10 |
from stakeholders by conducting at least
six focus groups by funding category with
grantees, donors, and community members,
as well as The Foundation’s Board and staff
to define possible measurable outcomes and
develop goal statements for each funding
category. Information gleaned from these
focus groups will help to determine
collective outcomes and common indicators
by funding category.
Mission Spark expects to complete a report
and make recommendations to The Summit
Foundation Board by June 2014.

Awards $150,000 for
After School Programming
In early 2012, not long after Summit School
District discontinued its after-school day camp
programs, The Summit Foundation initiated a
study involving after-school, before-school and
holiday youth activities. Lack of transportation,
cost, program consistency/continuity and lack
of awareness of programs that are available for
students were identified as issues throughout
the community.
As a result, The Summit Foundation partnered with local organizations to develop a strategic plan and to
create immediate solutions to these challenges to enable our local youth a safe place after school when so
many of our community's parents are required to be working.
Also in 2012, with a grant from the Colorado Health Foundation, the Family & Intercultural Resource Center,
Keystone Science School, Summit County Youth & Family Services, and Summit School District worked
together to launch a pilot after-school program in four of the six elementary schools in an effort to fulfill the
immediate need for after-school activities in the community.
Following the successful pilot of the after-school program, in July 2013, The Summit Foundation approved its
second special initiative grant – a $50,000 contribution each of the next three years – to support the CATCH
program at the four elementary schools and to add the same programming at Breckenridge Recreation Center.
In doing so, The Summit Foundation joined Keystone Science School, Family & Intercultural Resource Center
and Summit School District as the primary partners in the delivery of these after school activities for kids.
The CATCH, which stands for Coordinated Approach to Child Health, after-school program is designed to
promote healthy physical activity and eating behaviors in children. It aims to equip children with the knowledge
and skills to make healthy decisions, all while having fun. Each day, a healthy snack is served and the children
participate in a nutrition lesson followed by various exercises and non-elimination games.
With funding from The Summit Foundation to have a Single Point of Contact for Kids (SPOCK), who can help
coordinate and publicize out of school programming options for school-aged children, the program had a goal
to provide CATCH programming to 130 kids at the five sites. In Fall 2013, 141 youth were enrolled in the afterschool activities.
Additional partners for the 2013/14 program include Town of Breckenridge, Town of Frisco, Town of Silverthorne,
Summit County Girl Scouts, Summit County Library, CSU Extension 4-H, Summit County Youth & Family
Services, and Summit County Government.
The Summit Foundation is excited to be a three year $150,000 partner in this programming to provide healthy
after-school activities to the youth of Summit County.

The Summit Foundation develops Youth Giving Council
at Summit High School
Comprised of students from the Summit High School Leadership class, the Youth Giving Council was started in
the fall of 2012 and had been the long-time brainchild of The Summit Foundation Board of Trustee Gini Bradley.
The group focuses on teaching youth about philanthropy while allowing them to participate in the grant process.
The Summit Foundation’s Events & Marketing Coordinator Elisabeth Lawrence and Trustee Gini Bradley led the
students through creating a funding priority, developing a grant application, determining a deadline for submission,
and then sharing the opportunity with local nonprofits and student groups. Groups applied to the Council for minigrants (up to $1,500) that would have a significant impact on Summit County youth. The Council then reviewed the
applications and determined their grant award amounts. Like The Summit Foundation’s application process, these
opportunities were offered in Spring and Fall cycles.
Sophomore Emily Carlson said, “I like that something we are doing now can make a lasting impact on the future of
Summit County youth.” All the students agreed that it was a great opportunity to give back to the community and
learn about many local nonprofits.
The Summit Foundation has collaborated with Breckenridge Grand Vacations and The Summit Foundation’s ski
area partners to provide support to the Youth Giving Council. Breckenridge Grand Vacations awarded a grant to
The Summit Foundation to fund the Youth Giving Council. And at the start of the 2013/14 ski season, Vail Resorts,
Copper Mountain Resort, and Arapahoe Basin Ski Area provided The Summit Foundation the opportunity to sell
one additional patron pass with transferable ski privileges specifically to raise funds for the Youth Giving Council.
The 2013 Youth Giving Council members included Valentina Blass, Emily Carlson, Morgan Courtney, Rachel Fitch,
Joel Gomez, Natalie Gray, Meg Heil, Brett Huntley, Tom Kalina, Claire MacMurray, Cait McCluskie, Bailey Radek,
and Billy Wilcox.

individuals, organizations, businesses and corporations for the time and money
contributed to causes of their choice. Every November since 1991, this event has
followed a national and statewide trend of recognizing philanthropy.
Awards are presented in recognition of outstanding contributions in eleven categories:
Board Member, Business, Citizen, Educator, Community Organization, Professional
in a Nonprofit Organization, Philanthropist, Volunteer, Youth, Youth Mentor, and
Community Collaboration.
In its 23-year history, over 230 individuals, families, businesses and community
organizations have been honored for their tireless work to improve the quality of life in
Summit County through their commitment to the community through varying entities.

Ski Resort Contributions Build a Stronger Community
The cornerstone of The
Summit Foundation’s
fundraising efforts is
the Patron Pass program,
anchored by transferable
season ski passes
generously donated by:
Arapahoe Basin Ski Area
Beaver Creek Resort
Breckenridge Ski Resort
Copper Mountain Resort
Keystone Resort
Vail Mountain
Thanks to the generosity of Arapahoe Basin Ski Area, Beaver Creek Resort,
Breckenridge Ski Resort, Copper Mountain Resort, Keystone Resort and Vail
Mountain, the Patron Pass Program has become the cornerstone of the
fund-raising efforts for The Summit Foundation.
The contribution of transferable ski privileges has created a partnership
between The Summit Foundation, Vail Resorts, Copper Mountain Resort and
Arapahoe Basin, and illustrates the commitment each of the ski resorts
provide to support vital and treasured services in our community. The partnership translates into participation by ski area representatives being part of
the grant award process and giving back to the Summit County community.
Anchored by the transferable skiing privileges, which are provided
complimentary to The Foundation from the above resorts, the Patron Pass
Program earned more than $1 million in funding for The Summit Foundation
in 2013. This funding represented a significant portion of the $2.4 million
awarded by The Foundation and its partners in 2013. As the 2013/2014 season
began, the 300 passes allocated to The Summit Foundation were fully
committed for the second year in the organization’s history.
In December 2013, the ski areas allocated one additional medallion to The
Summit Foundation specifically to raise funds for the Youth Giving Council’s
mini-grant allocations. The Summit Foundation is extremely grateful to the
ski areas for extending this additional pass and providing a specific purpose
for its revenue.
The Summit Foundation thanks the ski areas and all of our donors for your
commitment to our community and the support received by The Summit
Foundation through the Patron Pass Program.
For more information on the Patron Pass Program and additional benefits offered by the program, contact
The Summit Foundation’s Director of Development Kasey Geoghegan or visit summitfoundation.org.
In 2013, contributions from 197 donors helped
The Summit Foundation sell out of the 301
transferable ski privileges that were provided
pro-bono by the ski areas through the
Patron Pass Program, raising over $1 million
to benefit our mountain communities.

The Peaks Society of The Summit Foundation was established to honor and recognize the generosity and foresight
of individuals who have planned for the future by designating a gift in their estate to meet ongoing community needs.
Naming The Summit Foundation as a beneficiary in your will, trust or insurance policy can be the simplest gift to
permanently link your long-standing support to The Summit Foundation.
The Peaks Society celebrates those who have made a commitment to The Summit Foundation to continue to support
peaks
society
charitable causes after their lifetimes. Thank you to these individuals who have let The Summit Foundation know of
their planned gift intentions. We hope others are inspired by their example.

A bequest is one way to leave a legacy gift to your community. A bequest is simply a gift you make through
your will or trust which indicates your desire to leave something of value toward The Summit Foundation’s
future work. A charitable bequest can be a specific dollar amount or a percentage of the value of your total
estate, a gift of stock or life insurance or even real estate. Gifts of all shapes and sizes are welcome. The spirit
behind every gift is the same.
To learn more about planned giving and/or The Peaks Society, contact The Summit Foundation’s Director of
Development Kasey Geoghegan.
If you have made a charitable estate gift to The Summit Foundation, or are considering making a planned gift
to recognize The Foundation, please consider informing The Summit Foundation so we may also recognize
you as a member of The Peaks Society. Beyond preparing a gift to The Summit Foundation and informing us,
members have no obligations.
Thank you for considering The Summit Foundation in your legacy planning.

DONOR ADVISED FUNDS
donor
advised
funds
Since 1999, The Summit Foundation has been honored by the establishment of more than 40 Donor Advised,
Scholarship and Agency Endowment Funds.
Establishing an advised fund allows donors to make a gift to The Summit Foundation and then remain actively
involved in suggesting charitable causes to designate gifts. By creating a donor advised or scholarship fund,
a donor receives many benefits similar to those of a private charitable foundation but without the costs,
administrative responsibilities and government reporting requirements.
In addition to donor advised funds, The Summit Foundation administers agency endowment funds and dedicated
funds for various organizations. These funds provide the opportunity for named organizations to receive annual
income from these “endowed” investments, while providing a nest egg for the organization into the future.
Funds may be established within The Summit Foundation and are invested and managed in accordance with The
Summit Foundation’s investment policies. Investment performance is reviewed quarterly and managed by financial
experts and monitored by The Summit Foundation’s Finance and Investment Committee and the Board of Trustees.
In 2013, the following funds were held within The Summit Foundation’s endowment fund:

Jeanette Albert Scholarship Fund
The Anschutz Foundation/NRC Broadcasting

2013 EVENTS
The Summit Foundation raised $190,000 through its fund-raising events in 2013. For many years, The Summit
Foundation’s events have served as the entry point for involvement with The Foundation. The Foundation’s primary
events in 2013 were a Kentucky Derby Party, Annual Golf Tournament, Great Rubber Duck Race, and Parade of Homes.
Kentucky Derby Party
Nearly 200 people supported The Summit Foundation at Blue River Bistro
in Breckenridge at its 5th Annual Kentucky Derby Party. The event featured
a VIP party with a scrumptious Southern buffet and unlimited mint juleps.
Attendees wore their best Derby attire (hats included!) and came to cheer
on the horses.
Annual Golf Tournament
The Summit Foundation hosted its 26th annual Grand Lodge on Peak 7 Golf
Tournament in early June. Saturday evening began with a Welcome Party
dinner and Calcutta auction hosted by Vail Resorts Echo. Skyy Vodka
provided spirits to enjoy the evening while Boston comedian, Jimmy Dunn,
provided plenty of entertainment and emceed the lively auction.
Breckenridge Mayor John Warner hosted a breakfast on Sunday morning
prior to the shotgun start.
After a beautiful and warm
day of tournament play at
the Breckenridge Golf Club, the team of David Suchomski, Doug
Suchomski, Josh Knipp, and Sean Meachum won with an outstanding
score of 55. Players enjoyed a delicious on-course BBQ provided
by John Daisy of Fatty’s Pizzeria and the Breckenridge Restaurant
Association. At the Interval International awards reception, the top five
teams were honored with prizes; along with individual prizes for the
longest drive, closest to the pin, most accurate drive and longest putt.
The annual tournament raised a record setting $71,000 for The
Summit Foundation’s grants and scholarship program. The Foundation
is thankful to all the players for their continued support of this long-standing tournament as well as title sponsor Grand
Lodge on Peak 7. The Town of Breckenridge and the Breckenridge Golf Club were generous hosts.

Great Rubber Duck Race
On Saturday, August 31st, nearly 9,000 rubber ducks raced down a roaring Blue River for
The Summit Foundation’s 26th Annual Great Rubber Duck Race, which raised $80,000 for
The Summit Foundation.
The Hudson Auto Source Kids Duck Dash started the day’s races with 774 ducks raining
down into the Blue River with the help of Red, White, & Blue Fire Department and their
impressive ladder truck. Age-appropriate prizes donated by Peak-A-Boo-Toys, Vail Resorts
Echo, and Frisco Adventure Park were awarded to the top 50 ducks. Donated by Vail
Resorts Echo, the grand prize Kid’s Epic Season Ski Pass was won by Kaila Pisinski.
A record setting 228 ducks participated in the FirstBank Business Battle Duck Race. Local business French Kiss had
the swiftest duck, and their staff and clients won a backcountry ski trip for 12 at Ski Cooper, donated by FirstBank.
Over 65 businesses also participated in a duck decorating contest in which the ducks were displayed in the FirstBank
lobby for the week leading up to the race. Creatively decorated ducks from Vail-Summit Orthopaedics and
Breckenridge Music Festival tied for first place, after a rigorous decision by an expert panel of duck judges. An
honorable mention was presented to Innovative Energy for their solar duck.
At 3 p.m., excitement grew as participants watched 7,962 ducks race swiftly down the Blue River in hopes of securing
one of 62 prizes in the Grand Lodge on Peak 7 Great Rubber Duck Race. Due to the extremely rainy weather in the
month preceding the duck races, this year’s duck race was the fastest in race history, with ducks entering the Hyder
Construction finish line in just 12 minutes. Shawn Krause was the grand prize winner of a week-long vacation at the
destination of his choice, which was donated by Grand Lodge on Peak 7.
The Summit Foundation is indebted to the 2013 sponsors and major prize donors: Grand Lodge on Peak 7, FirstBank
of Summit County, Hudson Auto Source, Town of Breckenridge, Peak-A-Boo Toys, Climax Molybdenum Company,
PeakOne Surgery Center, Vail Resorts Echo, Vail-Summit Orthopaedics, Unity Snowboards, Arapahoe Basin Ski Area,
Hyder Construction, Copper Mountain Resort, Breckenridge Distillery, Beaver Run Resort & Conference Center and
Ready, Paint, Fire.
Summit Count
Parade of Homes
The 19th Annual Parade of Homes in Summit County was held the last two
weekends of September. Summit County Builders Association hosts this
2013 19th Annual
premier home tour to showcase the latest in building design and trends.
ARADE OF OMES
Throughout the two weekends, The Summit Foundation staffed featured
homes to earn the proceeds from the $15 admission. Aspen Grove Kitchen &
Bath sponsored the entry lanyards. In addition to staffing a Trilogy Partners home, employees of Bank of the West sold
tickets in their Summit County branches and Bank of the West donated to The Summit Foundation an additional $2
on each entry sold at their branches.
P
H
The Summit Foundation is appreciative of the Summit County Builders Association for
this wonderful event and is thankful to be recognized as the event’s annual beneficiary.
Over $27,000 was earned by The Summit Foundation from the 2013 tour of 11 homes.

WAYS TO GIVE
Making a gift to The Summit Foundation can be as simple as writing a check or attending an event hosted by The
Foundation or as sophisticated as designing an individual estate plan. Many charitable giving options are noted here.
These gifts can be made through specific programs like those noted below. More details on each of these opportunities can
be found by visiting summitfoundation.org
ANNUAL GIFTS
annual gifts
Outright Gifts
Cash, check, credit card, and stock contributions are the most common ways to give. These donations,
which offer maximum tax advantages, are accepted throughout the year and may be designated to the
annual operating fund or The Foundation’s Endowment Fund.
Patron Pass Program
Fully transferable ski privileges generously provided by Arapahoe Basin Ski Area, Breckenridge Ski Resort,
Copper Mountain Resort, Keystone Resort, Vail Mountain and Beaver Creek Resort is at the heart of this
program. Complimentary golf and Nordic skiing, as well as discounts throughout the county for lodging,
dining, services and activities are also offered through the program.
Employee Giving Program
More than 25 businesses partner with The Summit Foundation to encourage their employees to pledge
a payroll deduction to benefit The Foundation. In many cases, the company matches the gifts designated
by individual employees. The Foundation welcomes additional partnerships with employers throughout
the community.
Special Events & Projects
The Foundation raises monies through a variety of special events and projects each year. Become involved
by sponsoring, volunteering, donating products or services, or by simply attending one of these events.
These include an annual golf tournament in June and the great rubber duck race the Saturday of Labor
Day weekend. The Summit Foundation is also recognized as the beneficiary of Blue River Bistro’s
Kentucky Derby party, the Breck Crest Mountain Marathon and Summit County Builders Association’s
Parade of Homes. Annually, The Summit Foundation hosts a grant and scholarship reception in June
and a celebration of Philanthropy Awards in November.

PLANNED GIFTS
Do you dream about doing more for your loved ones AND for the causes you care most about? Making a planned gift to
The Foundation can provide significant tax benefits, while also permanently linking your long-standing support to The
Summit Foundation. Following are a variety of tools for giving that will make a lasting difference.
Donor Advised Funds
Establishing an advised fund allows you to make a gift to The Summit Foundation and then remain
actively involved in suggesting charitable causes to designate gifts, targeting the issues you care about
most. Types of advised funds include memorial funds, scholarship funds, agency endowment funds, and
field of interest funds.
Bequests
Naming The Foundation as the beneficiary in your will, trust or qualified retirement plan can be the
simplest gift. Because these assets often carry a heavy income tax obligation to your heirs, they can be
a particularly attractive source for funding your charitable gifts.
Charitable Lead Trust
planned gifts
You can name The Foundation as beneficiary of income from a trust for a specific number of years. Your
estate taxes are reduced and the property is not taxed to your children. When your children or grandchildren reach maturity, the Trust terminates and they receive the assets. The community benefits during all
of those years and your loved ones receive much more than they would otherwise.
Gift Annuity
You can create a gift annuity by making a gift of cash, property, or appreciated stock. In return, The
Foundation pays you a guaranteed annual income for life. You receive significant tax advantages,
including an immediate tax deduction for your gift. In addition, a portion of each income payment you
receive is tax-free. After your death, the remainder of your annuity is used to create a charitable
endowment fund in your name.
Charitable Remainder Trust
Similar to a gift annuity, a charitable remainder trust will pay you a guaranteed annual income for life.
The Trust is established by you and is held by you until your death, at which time the remainder of the
estate is donated to The Foundation.
Gifts of Real Estate
Real estate and other property can be donated to The Foundation, allowing a donor to establish a
charitable gift annuity if requested and/or receive maximum tax benefits.
All gifts are professionally managed and pooled for diversified investment and economies of scale and to increase their charitable impact.
Investment performance is reviewed quarterly by financial experts and monitored by the Finance Committee and The Foundation’s
Board of Trustees.
