2012 annual report 02 

board chair’s letter 

Dear Friends... 

In this age of global communication, global giving 

and texting $$$ to impact the latest tragedy on the 

24-hour news cycle, your Community Foundation may 

sometimes be a second thought. 

However, your Community Foundation is local giving at 

its best. Communities should be proud to take care of 

their own. It is a badge of honor to feed the hungry and 

assist a suffering family. You feel good-all-over to fund 

something that brings joy to a child. 

Here in West Chester/Liberty, we not only reach beyond 

our community, we take care of our neighbors! 

We take care of our community… 

• When we send 200+ Kids2Kamp and bring joy 

into their lives. Kids that would never have the 

opportunity to spend a week at an overnight camp 

or enjoy a Y Day Program are impacted by the 

experience that is given through local donors with 

assistance from Camp Campbell Gard and the 

Lakota Y. 

• Every single time a Lakota Student Athlete takes 

the field or the court because his/her athletic 

participation fee was paid, in part, by a Fund at 

the Community Foundation. 

• When a family is in crisis because they do not have 

the funds to bury their child, parent, spouse or 

loved one and the Angel Fund steps in to ease 

their burden. 

• Through the more than 160 Funds operating through 

the Foundation…doing charitable work important to 

them. 

• When we award 22 Scholarships from our numerous 

Scholarship Funds totaling more than $62,000 to 

benefit our youth. 

• When we grant Reach Out Lakota $10,500 to assist 

in their programming and supplies. 

Community Foundation to have a positive impact on 

the many needs of our Community. 

Your support of time and treasure has brought us to 

new heights! As you flip to the last page of this report, 

you will see that we have had quite a year. We had 

the great fortune to jump from $7M right to $9M in 

assets! That increase was due to: 

• a significant $1M donation. 

• the addition of Financial Management Group to our 

Investment Managers. 

• our Founding Families & Businesses, Anniversary 80 

Families, Fundholders and Donors. 

• the hard work of our Shamrock Shuffle Committee, 

Community Golf Classic Committee, Key Event 

Committee and Board Fund Committees. 

• the commitment of our Staff, Board, Advisory Board 

and Standing Committees of the Board. 

Your Community Foundation is in a very good place. 

Thank you so very much for making that happen. 

Because of YOU we can take care of our neighbors… 

now…and for years to come! 

Blessings to you and yours, 

Patti Alderson 

Board Chair and CEO

types of charitable funds 

The Community Foundation of West Chester/Liberty prides itself on matching donors with 

causes important to them. The Community Foundation has more than 160+ charitable funds 

created by individuals, families, businesses and nonprofit organizations who have chosen the 

Community Foundation to assist them in their charitable giving. Based on the goals of each 

donor, the Community Foundation is able to assist in determining whether they should 

support an already established fund or begin one of their own. If the donor has an interest in 

creating his/her own charitable fund, it can be customized to support a favorite charity(s) or 

need(s) in the community. Our staff works closely with each of our fundholders every step of 

the way. From determining how much or how little they want to be involved to deciding the 

best name for their fund, the Foundation is there to provide the best assistance. 

Funds can be created using assets such as cash, stock, securities, real estate, life insurance 

or private foundation assets. Additional contributions can be made at anytime or through a 

planned gift. Contact the Community Foundation’s professional staff to discuss how you can 

create a fund of your own today! 

The Community Grant Fund enables donors to make charitable gifts for the benefit 

of the entire community. If you make a donation to The Community Foundation with 

no restrictions placed on your gift, it will be placed into this fund. Also, a significant 

portion of the proceeds from our fundraisers, such as, The Key Event and Community 

Golf Classic are placed into this fund. The Community Grant Fund allows the 

Foundation to respond quickly to pressing community needs by expanding services 

and programs and creating partnerships to leverage grant dollars. Grants are 

recommended by the Foundation’s Community Grant Committee, with approval by 

the Board of Directors, to organizations and initiatives that enhance the quality of 

life in West Chester/Liberty. 

Agency Endowments are established by a charitable organization to support 

their mission and goals. These funds help create a steady stream of income for the 

Agency’s operations, programming and other organizational needs. 

Scholarship Funds provide an opportunity to help students achieve their educational 

goals. Scholarship funds can be designed for any level of education from pre-school 

to post-graduate work. Donors may designate particular eligibility requirements, field 

of study or a specific geographic area. 

Donor Advised Funds provide an opportunity for donors to recommend 

distributions to specific charities at their convenience. Donors obtain an income 

tax deduction for the value of appreciated assets at the time their gift is made to 

their Donor Advised Fund at the Foundation. A Donor Advised Fund allows the 

donor the opportunity to combine income tax planning with charitable giving. 

The Donor Advised Fund also gives the Donor the freedom to make grant 

recommendations to charities of their choice within their own timeframe. 

Designated Funds are established by the Donor whose intent is to have their gift 

benefit a designated charitable organization or purpose. These funds create a 

permanent endowment, thereby giving long-term support for their charitable 

organization or purpose. 

Field of Interest Funds are the perfect choice for donors who wish to support a 

geographic area of their choice or a particular interest, such as, the arts, environment 

or children. 

Deferred Gifts allow donors to leave a charitable legacy. The three major types of 

deferred funds include bequests, charitable remainder trusts and life insurance policies. 

Our staff would be happy to discuss the benefits of these contributions with you.


2012 new funds 

The Community Foundation is pleased to announce the 

establishment of the following charitable funds in 2012: 

Dr. Masood and Shakila Ahmad 

Scholarship Fund 

The purpose of the Dr. Masood and Shakila Ahmad 

Scholarship is to recognize and encourage Interfaith 

and Civic Engagement in our community with a $1,000 

scholarship to a student graduating from Mason High 

School, Sycamore High School, St. Xavier High School 

or any school in Butler County. It is awarded to a senior 

who is committed to, and has exhibited excellence 

through, Interfaith and Civic Service engagement in 

his/her community and region. The student should 

demonstrate his/her activities around the value and 

benefits of reaching across faith communities, dialogue 

and collaboration with others regardless of religion, race 

or ethnicity for serving the greater good and building a 

stronger community. 

Financial Management Group Charitable Fund 

Matthew and Andrea King Servant Leadership 


The Caring Like Karen Fund was established in 

memory of the ultimate caregiver, Karen Mason. Karen 

lived her life to make others happy. As a caregiver, she 

was unsurpassed. Her definition of a good day was 

when the person in her care was waited upon, cared for 

and smiling. If that didn’t happen, Karen wasn’t happy. 

She was the “perfect caregiver.” The Caring Like Karen 

Fund will present annual awards to caregivers who 

emulate Karen’s love and patience for those in their 

care. 

David and Dina Wilder Fund 

The SEBC Leadership 21 Class of 2011 has 

established the Leadership 21 Class of 2011 

Benefit Run Fund. Each year the Class of 2011 will 

host a Benefit Run to support a charitable cause in 

the community. Proceeds from the Run will be granted 

to the selected cause/s. In 2012, the Class voted 

that the proceeds from the event would benefit The 

Edge Teen Center. 

The Lungs on the Run Fund was established to 

raise awareness and money for lung cancer research in 

the Greater Cincinnati area. This commitment is made 

by hosting a 5K run/walk and one-mile walk each year. 

Over the past 3 years, nearly $30,000 has been awarded 

to the Cincinnati Cancer Center, a collaborative effort 

among Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, 

UC College of Medicine, and UC Health.

2012 new funds (continued) 

Established in 2012 by the owners of Troy’s Café 

in West Chester, the Troy & Tania Meyers Culinary 

Scholarship Fund extends an opportunity to students 

at Lakota East or Lakota West who plan to attend a 

Culinary School/Program. The Meyers passion is to 

assist those students looking to enter the culinary field 

by awarding this $1,000 scholarship. In addition, the 

Meyers plan to provide additional support by mentoring 

the scholarship recipients entering this career path.

Steven Webster is pictured with his Wishing Wells. 

Steven, an entrepreneur, prompted his parents Kevin 

and Gail to create The Wishing Well Fund to support 

the entrepreneurial endeavors of individuals with 

disabilities. 

The Roy H. Yelton Scholarship Fund was 

established to encourage new generations of youth 

to the community service that was the hallmark of 

the beloved Roy H. Yelton, founder of Yelton Fine 

Jewelers. Roy was giving, compassionate and cared for 

those around him in a genuine and profound manner. 

This scholarship has been developed to honor Roy’s 

memory and encourage a student who shares his desire 

to help others. 

When he lost his life in 2012, Zeke was a 17 year old 

Lakota West student who was loved by all. His smile, 

laughter and loving heart was contagious. He loved to 

hang out with his friends and family. He also loved to 

play video games and draw. He was very artistic, and 

his presence would brighten your day. He always put 

others before himself. The Ezekiel “Zeke” Stepaniak 

Memorial Scholarship Fund will honor another Lakota 

West student who shares similar qualities. The inaugural 

scholarship award will be presented to a member of 

Zeke’s senior class.


LEGACY 

YOUR DREAM. YOUR GIFT. YOUR LEGACY. 

People choose to support charitable causes for a variety of reasons. Maybe you give to 

show your compassion for the less fortunate or for a particular cause. Maybe you feel that 

you owe something to society, or maybe you benefit from the tax incentives offered for 

charitable gifts. Whatever your reasons for giving, The Community Foundation is here to 

help you determine how to maximize your gift. 

The Community Foundation receives gifts of all sizes. Whether you are considering a gift 

of cash, securities, closely-held stock or real estate, all gifts are important to the work of the 

Community Foundation. All types of assets can be used to contribute to an existing fund or 

to create a new fund to better serve your charitable goals. 

The Community Foundation also offers a variety of deferred giving arrangements that can 

be established now or through your will. These types of gifts include a gift of a life insurance 

policy, a percentage of your IRA or a charitable trust. Please contact the Foundation’s office 

to learn more about all the giving tools available to fulfill your charitable goals. 

Legacy Society 

The Community Foundation of West Chester/Liberty’s Legacy Society recognizes those 

who have remembered The Community Foundation in their will or estate plan. While we 

honor those who have notified us of their plans via our membership application, we also 

appreciate those who wish to remain anonymous. Please consider a gift to the Community 

Foundation or to any of our 160+ charitable funds in your will or estate plan. Your gift will 

support your interests for generations to come and may also provide you with tax incentives. 

The following is the suggested legal language to use in your will for making a bequest to 

The Community Foundation of West Chester/Liberty. 

Bequest for General Purposes 

“I give & bequeath an unrestricted, unconditional gift of $_____or _____% of my 

estate to The Community Foundation of West Chester/Liberty, West Chester, OH 

or its lawful successor to establish the (your name or family name) fund.”

Giving Cards 

The Giving Card Program provides an opportunity for everyone to 

engage in charitable giving in a way that is unique, meaningful and fun. 

Cards can be purchased to celebrate any occasion…such as a birthday, 

holiday, retirement or for a job well done. 

Much like a retail gift card, Giving Cards may be redeemed to benefit 

any of the Community Foundation’s charitable funds. Giving Cards can be ordered online or purchased in person 

at The Community Foundation’s office. 100% of the purchase is tax-deductible. Giving Cards can be purchased in 

the amount of $25 or more. A small service fee of $2.50 is applied for each transaction. No longer will you have 

to choose the Fund to benefit from your donation. Instead, the recipient of the Giving Card will have the joy of 

personally choosing the Fund they wish to benefit.

board designated funds 

The Community Foundation’s Board of Directors has established a variety of Board Designated Funds to address 

significant needs in our community. These Funds are sustained by the community and the generous donors who 

provide the much-needed financial support that allows these initiatives of The Community Foundation to continue. 

Art Mathews auctions items at the “On the Wings of Angels” event. 

“I prayed so hard for a miracle and with your help. . . one was

– Angel Fund Recipient 

Angel Fund 

In 2012, The Angel Fund Advisory Committee 

celebrated its 1st Annual “On the Wings of Angels” 

fundraising event at Jag’s Steak & Seafood. Thanks to 

the overwhelming support of Jag’s Steak & Seafood, 

Chef Michelle Brown, John Algaier and his staff plus 

the entire local business community, the event was an 

overwhelming success, raising more than $21,000 to 

help our neighbors in need. The Fund provides 

one-time financial support to an individual or family who 

lives, works or is a registered member of a church in our 

area who find themselves in crisis, through no fault of 

their own. Recipients of the Angel Fund are nominated 

by an “Angel” who has approached the Foundation 

with a specific need that would provide and sustain the 

much needed lift. 

A special thank you to those who serve on the Angel Fund 

Advisory Committee: Diane Stamp (Co-Chair), Julie White 

(Co-Chair)Kara Blum, Mary Bourgraf, Terri Brockman, Tammy 

Demo, Kelly Gilbert, Jamie Green, Norma Grone, Jenny 

Haglage, Donna Leslie, Beth Race, Paula Reed, Lourdes 

Ward and Dan Zieverink. 

The Heroes’ Celebration raised nearly $23,000 to support the mission. 

Heroes’ Fund 

Since 2005, the Heroes’ Fund has been providing onetime 

financial support for any military family, current or 

honorably discharged, whose primary breadwinner has 

served in a combat zone or, if the serviceman/woman 

is unmarried, to the parents or family members with 

whom he/she resides and to provide grants to various 

veteran’s non-profit organizations. This Fund is available 

to qualified persons residing in Butler, Hamilton and 

Warren Counties or to non-profits serving this group 

of qualified residents. In 2012, The Heroes’ Fund was 

under the leadership of Donald Hoffman with his team 

including: Keith Beall, Jim Eriksen, Frank Hickman, Katie 

Hoffman, George Lang, Tom McGill, Laure Quinlivan, 

Karen Rolcik, Mike Shadoan, Catherine Stoker and Matt 

Young. 

The FROZEN OPEN (right) raised

Fund. A special Thank You to Art 

Mathews for selecting the Heroes’ 

Fund as the recipient of the event 

proceeds.

Power of the Purse Fund 

The Power of the Purse (POP) Fund seeks to educate, 

inspire and increase the number of women committed 

to philanthropy. Quarterly, POP members host social 

events where they work to solicit and review requests 

from area non-profits and recruit new members to join 

their effort. Together, the membership votes on the 

organization(s) to receive their annual grant award. 

Membership is open to the public, with the Kick-off held 

in late summer where the first 100 members are given 

a Gift Certificate from Yelton’s Fine Jewelers. In 2012, 

POP members pooled their financial resources, each 

making a $100 contribution, to award a combined total 

of $9,500 to the Community Kids Fund, GIVE HOPE 

Fund, Parachute and Senior Independence. To date, the 

POP Fund has awarded nearly $60,000 to area charities.

philanthropy and community development, YIP 

provides hands-on experience that benefits both the 

participating student and local charities. Students raise 

money, build endowment funds and make grants to 

local nonprofit organizations. In addition, YIP seeks to

Mrs. Alderson – 

First and foremost I cannot put into words how being a part of Youth 

in Philanthropy and the Community Foundation as a whole has 

helped me in my first year of college at Ohio State University. Just 

being around fundraising for so long has made me more proficient 

in economics then I ever realized. YIP also helped with rounding out 

my ability to communicate with different personalities which I can say 

I am grateful for every single day. The knowledge I gained from the 

opportunities allotted to me by you is invaluable. I just wanted to 

say thank you, I did not know what I was doing then would be so 

influential now. If you ever need any help with anything at the 

Community Foundation I would be more than happy to volunteer 

for you.

Kids2Kamp Fund 

Established with the idea that every student should get 

the opportunity to experience the joys of camp, The 

Kids2Kamp Fund was created to provide disadvantaged 

children within the Lakota Schools an opportunity to 

attend summer camp. Children in grades 1-3 are 

provided the experience to attend a week-long day 

camp at the local YMCA, while children in grades 4-6 

are offered the option to attend a week-long overnight 

camp experience at Camp Campbell Gard. In 2012, 

Nearly 200 students benefitted from the generosity of 

the Kids2Kamp donors and our team of volunteers 

who assist in providing this opportunity. A special 

thank you to program volunteers Liz Perry and Barb 

Vanlandingham for their dedication and service to this 

life-changing program for these children.

investment manager that partnered with the Foundation 

to offer opportunities for structure and growth. In 2006,
