2009 Annual Report to the Community 2009 WCCF Council Members Invite You to Leave Your Legacy Ellen Bartlett John Engler, President Bev McMurray Randy Springer Joe Crivello Barry Haskins Kristie Diener, Secretary Don Koleszar Jeff Milligan Connie Neininger Lynne Zygmunt Leslie Wineland Goss Executive Director Dear Friend of White County, Exciting things are happening in White County! Wind turbines dot our landscape, our new hospital offers increased accessibility to quality healthcare, leadership development has become a focused priority, and a true commitment to arts and culture is emerging. Passion. Commitment. Generosity. These are the traits that make these initiatives possible ~ the same traits shared by the people and organizations you will see represented in this year’s Annual Report. In 2009, gifts to your White County Community Foundation made it possible for over $100,000 in grants and scholarships to be awarded in our community. How exciting! A community foundation exists solely for the benefit of the community, and everyone in the community can be a part of it. Every gift, large or small, strengthens our community. This fall, we welcomed Greg Kapp as the new President and CEO of The Community Foundation Greater Lafayette, following the tragic death of Doug Eberle. We look forward to working with Greg and are grateful for the support we receive as an affiliate of CFGL. We hope you enjoy learning a little more about our community in this report and thank you for all you do to help strengthen White County through charitable giving. John Engler WCCF Governing Council President Leslie Wineland Goss WCCF Executive Director R. Gregory Kapp President and CEO, The Community Foundation of Greater Lafayette Douglas W. Eberle President and CEO, The Community Foundation of Greater Lafayette Your White County Community Foundation inspires people to strengthen White County through charitable giving. WCCF and Donors: Making Dreams Come True WCCF Challenge Grant Supports Reading Junction Reading opens doors to so many exciting adventures, especially for young children. Through the White County Reading Junction program, many preschool children are receiving ageappropriate books through the mail on a monthly basis. A $2500 grant from the Calvert Youth Fund provides a 1:2 match for every donation to the program. All donations should be sent to White County United Way. In addition, Women Giving Together Fund members elected to grant $1000 to this valuable initiative. Women Giving Together ~ Growing, Celebrating, and Sharing Monticello-Union Township Public Library Establishes Second Endowment Fund Ninety-two White County women became donor members of WCCF’s Women Giving Together Fund in 2009, donating a total of $14,000 to the fund. Half was placed into permanent endowment and $7000 awarded as grants into the community. Any woman who cares about White County’s women and families may become a WGT member/donor simply by making an annual commitment to the Fund. Anyone who has visited the Monticello Library in the past couple of years knows that it is a busy place ~ helping patrons The fund’s annual luncheon welcomed 140 guests who were inspired and energized by keynote speaker Jo Ann Gora, Ball State University president. Former state senator Katie Wolf was honored as WGT Woman of the Year, and future BSU Entrepreneurship major Heather Jacks was awarded a $500 scholarship from the WGT Fund, in honor of Dr. Gora and in recognition of White County’s designation as an Indiana HomeTown Competitiveness community. and visitors alike explore new horizons every day…and not just in the book stacks!

He left education and spent 29 years as a commodities broker on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, but his love for education and young people never left him. In 2007, John and his wife, Kathie named WCCF as beneficiary of an insurance policy, for the purpose of establishing the John and Kathie Connelly Scholarship Fund to benefit a graduating senior from Frontier High School who has earned a varsity letter his/her senior year, is deserving of financial assistance, and who is likely to succeed in college. They did the same for Delphi High School through the Carroll County Community Foundation. John died quite unexpectedly in August. The first Connelly scholarship will be awarded in 2010. We thank John and Kathie for their generosity and for the privilege of helping them create a legacy that will touch lives for years to come. A. J. Wagner 1983-2006 A. J. Wagner spent his first nine years of school at Frontier and graduated from North White High School. An avid sports enthusiast, he was particularly passionate about baseball and softball. A loving and caring person, A. J. cherished spending time with his friends. A scholarship fund has been established in A. J.’s memory; all contributions will help support a future scholarship for a Frontier or North White graduating senior who has participated in varsity sports and is deserving of financial need. Memorials and tributes are special ways to honor or memorialize a member of your family, a friend, a colleague, or someone whose life has left a positive legacy. In lasting tribute to each of the individuals listed below, your White County Community Foundation assures that these special gifts live on for the continual benefit of our community.
