AMY MURPHY CATALYST
IT’S ALL IN THE FAMILY
During his career as an optical engineer, James Seeser worked with light.
Today, he is a beacon of charitable light in the St. Louis community, thanks
to the 220 philanthropic initiatives funded over the last 10 years through the
Seeser Family Fund, a donor advised fund administered by the Greater Saint
Louis Community Foundation.
When Jim, his wife Judy, and son Adrian considered formalizing their
charitable activities, they initially wanted to create a foundation, but found it
to be complicated and expensive. “We needed lawyers, a board of directors,
and special tax returns,” Jim said. “Frankly, I wanted as much money as possible
to be directed to good works, not to supporting our charitable-giving apparatus.”
A flexible and personalized approach to giving
That’s when Jim was referred to the Greater Saint Louis Community Foundation.
“This organization does 90 percent of what an independent foundation could
do, at a fraction of the cost,” he said. “They set up an approach designed
specifically for me and my family, and they continue to be a resource for us as
we contribute to causes and activities we’re passionate about.” Over the years,
Jim has supported the Central Institute for the Deaf, which is dear to his
heart, as both of his parents were deaf.
“I look for three things when considering a gift to a nonprofit,” said Jim. “First,
I need to understand the organization and its mission; then I must be convinced
that the gift will make a difference; and finally, I want to contribute to groups
where I can be personally involved.”
Seeser Family Fund

My wife and I appreciate
being able to make our own planned
gifts to the fund established by
my father, and we look forward to
using the resources of
the Foundation to reinforce the concept
of conscientious philanthropy
to our young daughters.
- Adrian Seeser
Jim also gives his son discretion to make recommendations on charitable
initiatives that are meaningful to him. “He and his family will eventually take
control of the fund,” said Jim. “It’s important that he understands the process
and the responsibilities, and the people at the Community Foundation have
helped both of us.”
Most importantly, Jim loves the sense of satisfaction he derives from his
philanthropic activities. One cause seems to energize him like no other – his
support of the FIRST® robotics competition. This initiative not only teaches
young people science and technology applications, but also helps them
approach the challenge like a business. They create budgets, raise money, and
set deadlines.

“It shows them the joys of pursuing a goal and watching it reach fruition.
Their enthusiasm is contagious!” said Jim. “For me, it mirrors my sense of
satisfaction when I see the wonderful things we’ve helped fund through the
Community Foundation. There’s nothing like it!”

A COMMUNITY OF GOOD
KRESGE ArtS St. Louis
The Greater Saint Louis Community Foundation partnered with the
Regional Arts Commission, the Arts and Education Council, and other groups to
identify opportunities to incorporate art initiatives into local neighborhoods.
Funded by the Kresge Foundation and currently in its initial stages, the
resulting programming will serve as a catalyst for community sustainability.
INVESTL

St. Louis Graduates
St. Louis Graduates is a coalition of educators, service providers, business
people, and philanthropic leaders who have come together to help low-income
and first-generation college students get ready for, get into, and complete
a post-secondary degree program. The Community Foundation serves on
the organization’s steering committee, provides backbone financial support,
co-chairs Scholarship Central, the regional portal where students can access
private scholarship and loan resources, and administers the St. Louis
Graduates Scholarship program.
home works!
Home Works!, The Teacher Home Visit Program, began as a pilot project of
Community Foundation donor Karen Kalish to support families and schools as
they work together to improve the educational experience of children. Now in
dozens of schools across the region, Home Works! provides the training and
skills needed to help teachers raise their students’ grades by getting to know
and engaging the families of their students. The Foundation provides
strategic counsel, financial services, and the nonprofit umbrella needed by
Home Works! to achieve its mission.

Walter Metcalfe (photo opposite), Senior Counsel at Bryan Cave LLP, and
other St. Louisans partnered with the National Park Service and the
City of St. Louis to form CityArchRiver 2015 and bring increased vitality to
the Gateway Arch, the iconic landmark that anchors the Jefferson National
Expansion Memorial and the St. Louis skyline. With a mission to connect,
invigorate, and expand the park’s grounds and museums, the organization’s
projects will begin by closing Memorial Drive and covering the interstate
highway with a new, dramatic park that will allow visitors to walk from the
city’s Old Courthouse to the Arch grounds and riverfront on one continuous
greenway. The Community Foundation serves as the back office and
administrator for CityArchRiver 2015.

A MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD CHAIR
A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT & CEO
For nearly 100 years, the Greater Saint Louis Community Foundation has been
helping individuals, families, and businesses put their charitable dollars to
work for organizations and causes they care about the most. We are a resource
not only for donors, but also for nonprofits seeking assistance in achieving their
mission. It is this long tradition of being a philanthropic and community partner
that has been the cornerstone of the Greater Saint Louis Community Foundation.
Saint Louis is my home. It frames my family’s memories. I love this community.
That’s why it is an honor to lead the Greater Saint Louis Community Foundation.
Since assuming this role in January, I have become acquainted with many of
you, our diverse and dedicated group of donors, advisors, and community
supporters. I’ve also enjoyed the privilege of getting to know the numerous
nonprofits serving our community and seeing firsthand the impact they have
on the lives of so many.
This year, the board of directors took important steps to strengthen the
Foundation’s future impact. We started the year with a new President and
CEO, Amelia Bond. After a national search, it was clear that the ideal
candidate to take our Foundation to the next level was someone in our own
backyard – a person with extensive experience in building relationships and
growing assets. Amelia hit the ground running. We are confident that her
passion and enthusiasm for our Foundation and our community will produce
huge dividends in years to come.
Thank you,
Laurna C. Godwin
With a new CEO at the helm, the board felt it was an opportune time to
examine where the Foundation is and, more importantly, where we should go.
We rededicated ourselves to our mission – to increase the impact of charitable
giving now and forever, which is why we have also embraced our new motto,
“Giving for Good.” We want to inspire people to give for the good of our
community and do so for years to come.
We also outlined our core values: collaboration, community leadership,
exemplary service, stewardship, and expertise. Last, but most importantly, we
set a bold goal – one that calls for growing our community grantmaking on
behalf of our donors to $100 million in 15 years! This goal is necessary
because the need in our community is so great.
We hope you will join us as we work to achieve our goal and to prepare for
our second century of service. A strong and vibrant future awaits not only the
Greater Saint Louis Community Foundation, but also our community.
Community foundations are the fastest growing form of organized philanthropy
and play a catalytic role in the communities they serve. During fiscal 2012, we
invested a total of $17 million in programs and scholarships on behalf of our
donors. Eighty percent of these contributions stayed right here in the
Saint Louis region. Our goal is to help our donors direct $100 million annually
in grants into our community by 2027.
Thanks to our donors, we received more than $27 million in new gifts this
fiscal year and more than $125 million in new assets over the last five years.
Currently, we have a total of $200 million in assets and administer more than
400 funds.
Our mission is to make giving easy by creating good chemistry with our
donors, nonprofits, and professional advisors. We assess our donors’ goals and
offer them personalized solutions – whether we are providing strategic-giving
advice or offering tax-advantaged insights. Donors are able to continue
working with their trusted professional advisors and have the flexibility to
determine the degree of public visibility for their gifts.
Together, we create enduring change in the Saint Louis region. At-risk
children have a better start; remarkable Saint Louis institutions, like the zoo,
the art museum, and the symphony, receive generous gifts; and countless
specialized organizations enjoy vital support. We also work with other funding
partners to offer scholarships and bring national grant dollars to Saint Louis
that strengthen our neighborhoods. We help connect people to the most
promising strategies and resources available to tackle community problems.
That’s what it means to be your community foundation.
Before closing, I want to thank our board of directors – especially Board Chair
Laurna Godwin – for their unwavering support. I want to also recognize the
Foundation’s talented staff. Each of them has been an invaluable resource for
me over the past year. I appreciate their drive, dedication, and devotion to our
donors, the Foundation, and our mission.
Finally, thank you for your continued generosity, support, and commitment to
making our community a better place today and for generations to come.
Until next year,
Amelia A.J. Bond
