2005 Annual Report
I am the bread of life;
he who comes to me
shall not hunger, and
he who believes in me
shall never thirst.
John 6:35
Mis ion Statement
The mission of The Catholic Foundation is to financially support the
spiritual, educational and social needs of our Catholic community.
Catholics are called by God to protect human life, to promote dignity, to
defend those who are poor, to strengthen the Church and to seek the
common good. The Catholic Foundation exists to help Catholics live out
this sacred mission of the Church, through the wise stewardship and
thoughtful sharing of their financial resources.
We provide opportunities for people to permanently fund the causes that
are most meaningful to them, thus supporting and amplifying the work of
parishes, schools, ministries and organizations. We are here to help
donors often accomplish more with their gift than they thought possible.
We are here to serve the Church.
A Message From OurBishop
My dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
When Pope John Paul II declared the Year of the
Eucharist, he called upon each of us to renew our
gratitude for the holiest and most precious sacrament
of all. As I look through this 2005 annual report of
The Catholic Foundation, I am inspired by the faithfilled men and women who express their gratitude
through their unselfish giving for the good of their
brothers and sisters in the Body of Christ. The
descriptions of the funds, and the long and diverse
list of recipients of these funds in this report are all
reflections of a people who truly celebrate Christ’s
love and blessings as the Bread of Life.
I pray that you will be inspired by the good works that
are being accomplished through the generosity of the
Foundation’s many donors. Each of these individuals
has made a difference in the lives of others by heeding
our Lord’s call to reflect the Eucharist.
4
I can think of few better ways to manifest the gift of
the Bread of Life than by serving as ambassadors of
His message and good stewards of the world He has
entrusted to our care. As you encounter the living
Christ throughout the coming year, I invite you to
express your gratitude by sharing your blessings in
any way that the Holy Spirit inspires you.
May God continue to bless and keep you.
Sincerely yours in Christ,
Most Reverend Frederick F. Campbell, D.D., Ph.D.
Bishop of Columbus
I am the Bread of Life
A Message From OurBoard
Dear Friends,
On behalf of our entire Board of Trustees, I am
honored and pleased to report on the status of
The Catholic Foundation as we celebrate 20 years
of helping people “do something beautiful for God.”
This has been another year of growth and inspiration.
Forty-eight new funds were established this year,
bringing the assets managed by the Foundation to
over $94 million. More importantly, we were blessed
to distribute more than $3.5 million to the parishes,
schools, agencies and organizations that serve our
diocese. Since 1985, with an initial $1 million in
assets, we have been blessed to distribute over $28
million to our Catholic community. This is truly a
remarkable testament to the goodness of the hundreds
of men and women who have been and continue to
be associated with The Catholic Foundation.
In this, the Year of the Eucharist, we are renewing
our deep commitment to the blessings that have
been entrusted to us. We recognize that all we have
and all we are, are gifts from God, freely given to us,
not for our possession, but for our responsibility to
be good stewards.
As we continue on our path of financially supporting
the spiritual, educational and social needs in our
Catholic community, we give thanks for the gift of
the Eucharist, and pray that this sacrament will
inspire each of us to achieve even greater acts of
stewardship in the coming year.
Sincerely,
Carlos Cherubin, Chairman
Board of Trustees

Leave a Legacy of Love
Pass on the Gift of Faith
No matter what stage of life you’re at, it’s never too soon to reflect upon
the kind of legacy you would like to leave for the future. Whether you’re
a young family just starting out, or you’re in the middle of your retirement
years, The Catholic Foundation can help you find a meaningful way to
benefit others through your philanthropy.
Legacy giving is not only for those with wealth. The value of the gift isn’t
measured by the size or the amount, but rather by the amount of heart
put into it.
Depending on your needs, you may choose a giving method that can offer
significant tax advantages, reduce future estate taxes, and/or provide a steady
income for you and your loved ones. Some of the options include: charitable
bequests in your will, memorial funds that honor family members or other
loved ones, charitable gift annuities, trusts, donations of property or investments,
designating the Foundation as a beneficiary of your retirement plan
or using a life insurance policy to make a gift.
If you would like to leave a legacy of love and pass on the gift of faith, but have
questions on how to meet your specific financial and charitable goals, call The
Catholic Foundation. We will personalize an example for your situation and
provide you with other planning ideas that meet your objectives. You or your
professional advisor may contact us at 614-443-8893.

How to Establish an Endowment
Making Basic Decisions
Establishing an endowment with the Catholic Foundation represents a significant act of charity.
We make the process of establishing a fund as simple as possible. There are only a few basic
decisions you need to make:
• How much do you wish to contribute to open your fund?
• How do you wish to make your contribution? With cash? Appreciated stock? Real estate?
Or, with some other asset?
• Do you want the fund to be in your name? That of a relative or friend? In memory of someone
special in your life? Or some combination of these?
• What charitable cause(s) do you want to benefit from of your fund?
• Do you want to start the fund now? Or, do you prefer to receive an income from your fund
during your lifetime and have the charitable distributions start at your death?
Once you have made these decisions, let us know. We will sit down with you and discuss your
choices. Based on our discussion, we will draw up a simple, two page endowment agreement
that details your charitable intentions. You and an officer of the Foundation sign the agreement
and your fund is ready to receive charitable contributions. It is as simple as that!
14
Adding to an Existing Fund
The Foundation may already hold an endowment fund that benefits your parish, school or
favorite Catholic charity. If that is the case, you might wish to add to that fund rather than
open one of your own. You decide how much you would like to contribute, if you want to do
it now or at your death, and if you wish to use cash or other appreciated assets to make your
gift. Then, notify us of your decisions and we will take care of the rest.
Establishing an Endowment Through Your Estate
Bequests such as this qualify donors for automatic membership in The Kyrie Bequest Society.
Please look for information about the society on another page in this report, or call us at 614443-8893 to discuss any questions you may have.
I am the Bread of Life
Methods of Giving
A gift through the Catholic Foundation occurs when a donor decides to transfer ownership of something
with monetary value either now or at the time of death. A donor may direct the benefits of a gift to one or
more beneficiaries: for example, a parish, school, program, cause or group. Some donors prefer their gifts
be added to the Church and Community Fund at the Catholic Foundation, thereby providing support for
the greatest needs within the diocese year after year.
The Foundation offers an extensive array of methods of giving to meet its donors’ charitable and financial
needs. Here is a chart of some of the most commonly used giving options.

THE CATHOLIC FOUNDATION Annual Report 2005
Special Funds
Donor Advised Funds
A Donor-Advised Fund is a giving option
offered by the Catholic Foundation
that some of our donors have found to
be a convenient and flexible alternative
for their charitable giving. With a
Donor-Advised Fund, the donor may
make substantial gifts to the fund in
profitable years and/or periodic gifts
to the fund over a period of years.
Then, when the donor wishes to make
charitable contributions, they advise the
Foundation regarding the charitable
programs and organizations they would
like supported by the fund.
16
The Catholic Foundation fully invests
the assets and the donor is able to make
suggestions about distributions of both
income and principal from the fund.
Therefore, over time the donor has
more money to contribute to charity
than would have been available through
their original gift(s).
Any person or corporation may create
a Donor-Advised Fund by contributing
either current gifts and/or future gifts
through wills, trusts and bequests. Gifts
may be in the form of cash, securities or
other appreciated property. Distributions
from a Donor-Advised Fund may be
directed to either Catholic or nonCatholic charities.

The Church and Community Fund
From the very beginning, The Catholic
Foundation has concentrated on
establishing endowments to benefit
specific Catholic programs and priorities.
Many of the schools, parishes and
organizations within our diocese are
direct beneficiaries of Foundation endowments. The increasing number of these
individual endowments has helped make
The Catholic Foundation successful in
its mission.
The true measure of any foundation’s
success, however, cannot be defined by
the assets and number of funds, but also
by the good works that are made possible
from their resources.
For that reason, The Catholic Foundation
established The Church and Community
Fund, an endowment that will allow us
to increase our ability to do good
works…to fund programs and projects
currently without funds to address specific needs.
The Church and Community endowment will allow the Foundation to reach
out with funding support to the areas of
greatest need within the diocese that
may otherwise receive little or no funding.We hope that generous individuals
throughout the diocese will consider
making a gift of any size to this very
special fund.
17
Supporting Organizations
Many families for whom philanthropy is
a priority believe that a private family
foundation is the only means available to
establish a tax-advantaged vehicle to
accomplish their family’s charitable giving.
However, a Supporting Organization of the
Catholic Foundation allows a family many
more tax advantages than a private
foundation while still allowing the family
to make the investment decisions and to
be involved in grant-making. In addition,
many of the administrative details and
required reports can be handled by the
Catholic Foundation.

Growth in Distributions
Growth in Number of Funds
The Foundation holds endowed
funds to benefit parishes, schools,
agencies, organizations and
ministries within the Diocese of
Columbus. The Foundation is
available to help donors establish
endowments to benefit whatever
charitable cause they designate.
The Foundation paid out over $3.5
million in distributions and grants
this fiscal year. Since 1985, the
Foundation has provided more
than $28 million to support the
spiritual, educational and social
needs of our Catholic community.
In this fiscal year, we added 55
new funds, bringing the total
number to 425 accounts.
Investment Philosophy
The Foundation’s Board of Trustees views its role as steward of the Foundation’s funds as a sacred
trust. It retains the services of four investment advisors, providing its fundholders with the highest
caliber of money management in addition to a broad diversity of investment styles to maximize
investment return while safeguarding principal.
The Foundation is committed to an investment philosophy rooted in the long-term growth potential
for the endowment funds entrusted to it. For this reason, the Foundation utilizes a distribution
policy geared to providing for long-term growth. Each year the Foundation sets a distribution rate
that provides income for the stated purposes of the endowment fund and also provides for a
return to principal.
Here’s how it works:
An endowment fund is established at the Foundation with a deposit of $100,000. No other
deposits are ever made to the fund. Let’s assume an average annual rate of return of 8.5%–5% of
that return withdrawn each year for current needs and 3.5% reinvested as principal. In year one,
the fund looks like this:
Beginning Balance
$100,000
5% Distribution
$5,000
Amt. Reinvested
$3,500
Ending Balance
$103,500
44
In twenty years, the amount of the original deposit has almost doubled, and a total of over
$141,000 has been returned in distributions.
Beginning Balance
$192,248
5% Distribution
$9,612
Amt. Reinvested
$6,729
Ending Balance
$198,977
In thirty years, the value of the fund is over $425,000, and the annual distributions total
approximately $248,000.
Beginning Balance
$414,639
5% Distribution
$20,731
Amt. Reinvested
$14,512
Ending Balance
$429,151
Continuing this example, after a little more than 60 years the fund’s value will exceed $1 million.
In addition, over $1 million in annual distributions will have been released to provide for
immediate needs.
The Catholic Foundation strictly adheres to morally and socially responsible guidelines in
accordance with those set forth by the U.S. Catholic Conference of Bishops.

PUBLIC ACCOUNTABILITY STATEMENT
We recognize and understand that as a Catholic Foundation entirely separate from the diocese but in all ways
accountable to both the diocese and our donors, we are sustained by public trust and laws that confer upon us
a special responsibility to society and the Roman Catholic Church. We further acknowledge that this responsibility
can best be met by full, open and public disclosure of all our affairs.
