Letter from our Board Chairman… Dear Friends, Last year the Foundation received a $300,000 matching grant from the Kansas Health Foundation. As a result of this grant, the Foundation was about to embark on a new path of answering the call to receive matching funds to help build the Foundation’s Operating Fund and a new Healthy Living Fund. To date, the Foundation has received over $290,000 in gifts and has earned matching dollars totaling about $110,000. The challenge was daunting at first but the board was committed to accepting the challenge. The Foundation owes a huge thank you to all the donors who have made this possible. The Foundation hopes to be able to start awarding grants from the Healthy Living Fund during the next fiscal year. Grants from this fund will go to programs that support healthy living, environments, and behaviors, improving the living conditions in Ellsworth County and the health of its residents. The board has 4 years to obtain the $300,000 and use it to build the Foundation, and they don’t want to miss an opportunity to bring money from outside Ellsworth County, into Ellsworth County. This year the Foundation hit a milestone, exceeding $1 million dollars in assets. Building permanently endowed funds is a challenge as we are an instant gratification society and permanently endowed means only the income can be used for grants. It takes patience for the funds to grow and to limit spending to just the income, but the rewards are great. Once a fund is established, it becomes a permanent source of income that will always be here giving, and giving, and giving beyond the original amount put in the fund. Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has. ~ Margaret Mead The Foundation has been and will continue to be committed to building endowed funds as a means to serve charitable causes in Ellsworth County. Thank you to all the donors who are helping the Foundation change the world , one home at a time , starting with ours—Ellsworth County.

Sincerely,

Sara Soukup, Chairman

In Memory of Eleanor Hunter

Nelson Henderson said, “The true meaning of life is to plant trees under whose

shade you do not expect to sit.” The work

that Eleanor Hunter did for her community and the

Foundation will never be forgotten and we will

remember her when sitting under a shade tree that she

helped plant.

Ten reasons to help build the Foundation

One We are a local organization with deep roots in the community.

Two We are an affiliate with the Greater Salina Community Foundation who has staff with broad expertise regarding community issues and needs.

Three We provide personalized service tailored to each individual’s charitable and financial interests.

Four Our funds help people invest in the causes they care about most.

Five We accept a wide variety of assets, and can facilitate even the most complex forms of giving.

Six We partner with professional advisors to create highly effective approaches to charitable giving.

Seven We offer maximum tax advantage for most gifts under federal law.

Eight We multiply the impact of gift dollars by pooling them with other gifts and grants.

Nine We build endowment funds that benefit the community forever and help create legacies.

Ten We are a community leader, convening agencies and coordinating resources to create positive change.

2012 Annual Report 4

Charitable bequests are the most frequent type of planned gift made to charity. They can be created with different types of assets including land, retirement assets, or insur-ance. The estate receives a charitable deduction for the full amount given, so heirs pay no estate tax on the gift. Charitable bequests are a great way to build your legacy at the Foundation while still maintaining control of needed as-sets during your lifetime. A bequest may be made to the Foundation in several different ways: Gift a percentage of your estate Gift of a specific dollar amount or asset Gift from the balance or residue of your estate

Charitable Bequests: Start building your legacy now

3 steps to a bequest 1. Update your will, trust or beneficiary designation to the

Smoky Hills Charitable Foundation. We can provide your professional advisor with recommended language to make this a seamless process.

2. Determine your charitable legacy— education, your church, the arts, human services, etc… The options are endless.

3. Contact the Foundation to fill out a Fund for the Future fund agreement. This simple two page agreement can be revised over the years through our office without any attorney or court fees.

* Denotes a new fund

Making grants— It’s what we do at the Foundation. (Well, it is not the only thing that we do, but we do a lot of it!) At the core of our work, we make grants from funds entrusted to us by donors to fulfill charitable needs. Some grants have specific guidelines for funding, while others are open to a broad range of charitable options. Since inception, SHCF has awarded $201,340 in charitable grants.

Smoky Hills Community Fund This unrestricted grant fund allows the Foundation the flexibility to meet current community needs. Grants are awarded throughout the year through a competitive grant process. Funding for this grant program comes from donations, memorials, and other gifts to the Smoky Hills Charitable Foundation. Gifts of any size are welcome additions to this important community grant fund and will help earn a 50% match from the Kansas Health Foundation’s GROW II matching grant program. $500—City of Holyrood: To help fund new playground equipment at the Holyrood City Park. $450—Ellsworth County Council on Aging, Inc.: To help fund public transportation for Ellsworth County Senior Citizens. $550—Ellsworth County Historical Society: To purchase electrical supplies to replace the wiring at the Hodgden House Museum in Ellsworth and the Commanding Officer’s Quarters in Kanopolis. $1,818—Ellsworth Jr./Sr. High School: To help purchase new educational equipment for the school library. $1,095—Holyrood Volunteer Fire Dept.: To help purchase three new two-way radios. $1,000—Kanopolis Public Library: To help with a new “Tween/Teen” room at the library. $1,000—Lang Memorial Library: To help with a bathroom renovation.

Designated Funds For donors who know exactly what or whom they want to support, Designated Funds are the answer. Donors establish an endowed fund for their favorite charity or charities. The Foundation administers annual grants from the fund in the donor’s name, forever. In the event a designated charity no longer exists, the Foundation ensures that annual gifts are redirected to an appropriate charitable need, all the while keeping in mind the donor’s original intent. Current Funds Kansas Health Foundation Operating Fund for Smoky Hills*

Designated Fund 2012 Grantees Total grants: $0

Donor Advised Funds A donor advised fund gives donors all the benefits of a private Foundation without the hassle and with better tax advantages. Once the fund is established, donors suggest grants to support their favorite charities. The Foundation handles investment, administration and correspondence.

Current Funds Helen & Will Shanelec Fund Sundin Trust, Randy V. Mills & Judy S. Mills, Trustees Fund USD 327 Student Benefit Fund

Donor Advised Fund 2012 Grantees Total grants: $970 Good Samaritan Society

Field of Interest Funds Field of Interest funds allow donors to designate a specific issue or geographic area for grant making, but not specific organizations. Grants are made through an application process administered by the Foundation. Sometimes an advisory group with expertise in the field of interest is utilized in the grant review process.

Partnering with the Kansas Health Foundation to Build Communities

After a successful first year in the Kansas Health Foundation’s GROW II program, SHCF was awarded $60,000 in matching dollars from the KHF to establish two new funds— The Kansas Health Foundation Fund for Smoky Hills, a public health fund, and The Kansas Health Foundation Operating Fund for Smoky Hills, an endowed operating fund. They were also awarded a $10,500 operating grant for meeting certain benchmark requirements. Grants from the Kansas Health Foundation Fund for Smoky Hills will support public health initiatives for Ellsworth County that promote healthy lifestyles, behaviors and environments. Grants from the Kansas Health Foundation Operating Fund for Smoky Hills will help support SHCF’s annual operating expenses. Since starting the Kansas Health Foundation’s GROW II Challenge in 2010, the Foundation has increased its assets to over $1 million dollars.
