Our 2018 Annual report is here, and the snapshot of activity in our last fiscal year shows something we’ve known for a while: together, we’re driving positive change across our region, with an exponentially increasing impact. CFA donors are reinventing the local landscape for economic development, arts and culture, education, social welfare programs, and any other need you can imagine.
CFA hit a major milestone this past year, surpassing $71 million in assets. We now manage approximately 700 funds, each of which was created by local individuals, families, businesses, and nonprofits, to support and serve our community.
This past year alone, more than 5,500 donors contributed nearly $11 million to CFA funds. In turn, $6.3 million went out to 366 local nonprofits.
We’re proud to report CFA scholarships soared this year, as well. 379 students received funding for their post-secondary pursuits, for a total $805,000 in awards. That’s a 46% increase over last year. Many of these scholarship funds were created in honor or in memory of someone dear, and we’re proud to help maintain those legacies.
These successes belong to our donors. We are humbled by the generosity of each and every person who comes to us with an idea for helping others, and enlists our services to facilitate their compassion. That’s what we do: make it easy for people to uplift each other.
