NORTHERN CALIFORNIA GRANTMAKERS (NCG) is a regional association of foundations, corporate contributions programs and other public and private grantmakers. Started in 1965 and incorporated in 1981, NCG has grown to support the activity of 170 member grantmakers active in northern California, with combined grantmaking of more than $3 billion annually. NCG enhances the effectiveness of philanthropy by supporting regional grantmakers’ efforts to learn, promote the field and connect to peers and resources. For more information visit: www.ncg.org

FOR THE PAST 30 YEARS, NCG HAS SUPPORTED OUR MEMbERS’ EFFORTS to build relationships and share experiences with each other and to increase the impact of organized philanthropy in northern California.
The world has changed a lot over that time and so has the field of philanthropy. However, our members’ commitment to supporting the social fabric of communities in northern California and around the world has stayed strong. We play a unique role; yet many people are still unaware of the enormous value that philanthropy brings to the table.
To be successful in years to come, we need to help our peers in the nonprofit, public and private sectors understand the scope and impact of our work. We can –and should– continue to collect data and use metrics to measure and illustrate our successes. But numbers are not enough. We need to connect our data to the positive changes we create and support around the world. We have to tell stories that illustrate all the different ways that philanthropy is woven into the social fabric of healthy, vibrant communities.
In 2010, NCG first launched our Snapshots of Philanthropy series to better demonstrate the scope and impact of our members’ work. We started with seven stories that highlighted how foundations are using different approaches to make a difference in northern California.
In 2011, we are continuing to foster a storytelling culture that highlights organized philanthropy’s unique role in communities. We are building our Snapshots of Philanthropy collection to showcase the many ways our members make a difference in communities, whether through sustaining, leveraging, or partnering on key initiatives with local organizations or through public-private partnerships.
We’re also making another change. We’ve decided to use our annual report to tell some of NCG’s success stories over the past year. We’ve included all the traditional data, but we want to showcase some specific snapshots of our impact over the past year.
I hope you enjoy our stories – and I look forward to telling many more in the year to come.

THE ECONOMIC DOwNTURN CREATED MANY NEw CHALLENGES for foun-dations trying to evaluate the financial health of nonprofits in order to make smart invest-ments. NCG members were very eager to learn more about how to evaluate the financial statements and true financial needs of their grantees. Previously in 2009, NCG received many requests for trainings on the nuts-and-bolts of financial analysis and put together an “Intermediate Financial Analysis Workshop.” The workshop attracted so much interest that it had to be split into two sessions to accommodate everyone.
Over the past year, NCG received numerous requests for the training and offered it again as a day-long workshop. Once again, it attracted over 40 people, including the finance staff from several foundations.
After the workshop, NCG members made it clear that financial analysis was still a very hot topic and they were interested in getting more training and information. To meet those needs, NCG is exploring a series of financial analysis workshops designed to address key financial analysis issues such as spotting red flags on financial statements or indicators for healthy cash flow. These workshops will include a look at the relevant financial tools and overall trends that will support and sustain nonprofit business models for the 21st century.

“Stepping into the StoryCorps booth was an unexpectedly powerful experience for my mom and me. We were able to share intimate memories of my late father and capture his unique role in our family and our community. We treasure this experience and know that it will continue to impact our family for generations to come.”

“this event underscored the importance of sharing stories with future generations in order to capture the powerful legacy of family philanthropy in this country.”
— ANGELA JONES, PrOGram SPeCialiSt, NOrtherN CaliFOrNia GraNtmakerS
NORTHERN CALIFORNIA IS HOME TO MANY FAMILIES who have used philanthropy to support the social fabric of communities around the world. These families have unique stories about the people, places, events and values that have shaped their giving and often pass those stories down from generation to generation.
NCG invited StoryCorps, a nonprofit whose mission is to provide Americans of all backgrounds and beliefs with the opportunity to record, share, and preserve the stories of their lives, to host a Family Philanthropy Exchange event.
Over 50 people attended this moving evening at the Contemporary Jewish Museum. David Isay, the founder of StoryCorps and winner of a MacArthur Genius Grant award, talked to the group about the project and the importance of preserving family stories. After his presentation, a panel of families shared pre-recorded interviews and talked about their personal experiences with sharing family stories.
Many different philanthropic families participated in this session, including Shirley Fredricks and Lisa Parker of the Lawrence Welk Family Foundation and Douglas Goldman of the Lisa and Douglas Goldman Fund.

In an ongoing effort to anticipate changes in the nonprofit and philanthropic sectors, NCG came across the NonprofitNext research initiative which was funded by the James Irvine Foundation. The initiative’s report, “Convergence: How Five Trends Will Reshape the Sector,” explored the impacts of five key trends on the nonprofit community:
• Demographics are shifting.
• Technology advances are everywhere.
• Networks are enabling work to be organized in new ways.
• Interest in civic engagement and volunteerism is rising.
• Boundaries between nonprofit and for-profit sectors are blurring.
NCG was addressing many of these issues in other programs, yet this study provided a unique and illuminating look at all of the elements together. NCG decided to partner with the Foundation Center to invite our members to a session to learn about the report and hear from a panel of local leaders who were leveraging these trends.
The panelists talked about their organization’s efforts to adapt to these changes. David La Piana, of La Piana Consulting which authored the report, provided an overview and set the stage for the other panelists. Matt Halprin, a partner at the philanthropic investment firm, Omidyar Network, talked about how the blurring boundaries between the nonprofit and for-profit sectors are impacting their investment strategies. Dee Dee Nguyen, senior philanthropic advisor at the Marin Community Foundation, described how they are

“One of the greatest challenges for grantmakers is helping nonprofits embrace change, whether that change occurs because of a recession, the latest news story or an emergent technology. While i didn’t agree with every aspect of the panelists’ analysis about the types of changes that confront the sector right now, the session was very provocative and challenged me to think deeply about these trends and consider different perspectives for how to manage them.”

IN 2008, THE PHILANTHROPY AwARENESS INITIATIvE released a study that showed that very few of even the most engaged citizens and community leaders could provide examples of a foundation’s impact on their community and more than half of the respondents couldn’t even name a foundation on the first try. These results were sobering by themselves, but taken in concert with the economic downturn which dramatically increased the need for the public and private sectors to work together, it was a call to action.
NCG’s board and staff along with a number of NCG members began to think about ways to help the philanthropic community make better connections with policymakers. NCG knew that the Council on Foundations was a strong advocate at the federal level and the real challenge was going to be building bridges to state and local policymakers across northern California, and throughout the state.
NCG decided to focus on developing tools that would help their members better demonstrate their impact and value for these policymakers so they would be in a better position to work together in a proactive, strategic manner. As a result, the beta version of the Philanthropy Public Policy Portal, otherwise known as P4, was created and released in 2010.
P4 is an online resource designed to help grantmakers understand how government works at the federal, state, and local levels; to know where to go to connect with government officials and staff; and conversely to convey the value that philanthropy brings to local communities.

P4 has provided opportunities to connect with NCG’s peers at Southern California Grantmakers and San diego Grantmakers. to further ensure that policymakers across the state are receiving consistent information, NCG has also developed an information packet that highlights philanthropy’s statewide impact and tailored success stories from the different regions.
The release of P4 is an exciting milestone for NCG’s members, but it’s just the beginning. NCG will be meeting with federal, state and local policymakers in 2011 to develop mutual awareness and potential public-private partnerships. NCG staff will continue to build and disseminate P4 to help members build these relationships and explore new ways to help communities stay healthy and strong.
PROMOTION OF THE FIELD: One of NCG’s priorities is to strengthen its capacity in public policy, as a provider of policy-related grantmaker education and as an effective policy link and resource for the northern California grantmaker community. The Philanthropy Public Policy Portal is an example of our efforts to become a more comprehensive policy resource for our members.

IN EvERY COMMUNITY ACROSS CALIFORNIA, early childcare centers are a critical lifeline for working parents. Many of these centers receive funding from the state to ensure that safe, reliable day care is available to all working families in the state. According to the California Child Care Resource and Referral Network, about 500,000 children are served through subsidized childcare settings each year in the state of California.
Unfortunately, in 2010, the California state legislature could not agree on the state budget and did not pass it until 100 days after its deadline, making it the longest budget delay in state history. This holdup meant that many early childcare centers did not receive their fund-ing on time and did not have enough money to pay their bills. Many centers were faced with the very real possibility of having to cut services to children, a move that would have had a huge impact on working families throughout the state.
NCG’s Emergency Loan Fund provides quick-turnaround, low-cost financial assistance to nonprofit organizations located in Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Mateo and San Fran-cisco counties. It’s a collaborative effort between NCG members and partners and includes a mix of public and private funds.
Tracking & Trends
Bridging the Gap to Help Working Families Keep Childcare EMERGENCY LOAN FUND
TRACKING AND TRENDS: One of NCG’s priorities is to provide resources to our members that go beyond face-to-face programming. NCG’s Collaborative Philanthropy brings together grantmakers to use pooled grant and loan funds as a vehicle for cooperation, and to learn, innovate and model best practices. The Emergency Loan Fund is a long-standing collaborative at NCG that continues to respond to trends that could have negative effects on the stability of these communities.

During the fall of 2010, the Fund received several loan inquiries and applications from early childcare centers who were struggling with cash flow issues caused by the delayed budget. The Fund approved five bridge loans to early childcare centers in San Francisco, Berkeley, Half Moon Bay and Fairfax so they could keep their doors open until the state funds were available, maintaining this childcare lifeline for 729 children, their parents and their communities
