Introduction

This Annual Report is about the unstoppable power of partnerships. Together, we’re not only better, we’re stronger, smarter and far more effective—especially when we take on some of the most complex challenges we face today. Together with the Barr Foundation, we are helping to transform Boston’s performing arts and music scene by supporting the local artists who drive its creativity. Together with Eastern Bank and the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce, we are supporting and investing in black and Latino businesses so that they can grow and thrive. Together with Carbonite, Inc. and Hack.Diversity, we are diversifying the pool of highskilled employees in Boston’s innovation economy. You will learn about these partnerships and many others in these pages. As you’re reading, keep in mind that all of the work we do at the Boston Foundation— every day of every year—relies on the unique partnership we have with our donors. This year broke all records in funds received, at $203 million. We thank all new donors to the Boston Foundation, those who added to their Donor Advised Funds and those who helped us break another record. Our campaign for the Civic Leadership Fund, which fuels our research, forums and policy work, raised $2.7 million. All of these new funds increase our capacity to make grants to nonprofit organizations in Greater Boston and play a critical role in moving our community forward. We believe that by partnering with our donors, other foundations, nonprofits, businesses and government that—together—we can accomplish almost anything. And we invite you to join us.

LIVE ARTS BOSTON (LAB)

$1.6 Million Combined investments by

the Barr Foundation and the Boston Foundation totalled $1.6 million.

“At the Barr Foundation, we believe that artists are the essential engines of creativity and community vitality,” says San San Wong, Barr’s Director of Arts + Creativity. “And in these times of unprecedented division, we believe that artists are more critical than ever as society’s truth-tellers and bridge builders.” One way that Barr is fueling Boston’s ‘engines of creativity’ is by partnering with the Boston Foundation to fund Live Arts Boston. LAB makes grants of up to $15,000 to artists, small performing arts groups and collaboratives to create, produce or present artistic work for Greater Boston audiences. “To have a real impact, we knew we would need a partner who could amplify and focus what we would be able to contribute,” Wong says about the partnership with the Boston Foundation. Together, Barr and the Boston Foundation have invested more than $1.6 million in LAB. The critical need for this type of funding emerged through the City of Boston’s “Boston Creates” cultural planning process, which called for new funding for individual artists as one way to keep artists in Boston and attract new artists. In LAB’s first year, more than 880 artists participated in 358 LAB-funded events, including performances, workshops and festivals. Ninety-five percent of the artists performed new work and all of them reported taking artistic risks— one of LAB’s primary goals. “LAB funds are encouraging new levels of experimentation,” says the Boston Foundation’s Senior Director of Arts & Culture, Allyson Esposito. She also emphasizes LAB’s focus on all cultural traditions and artwork that deepens understanding across divides.

FRONT PORCH ARTS COLLECTIVE “Theater companies actually came to us and invited us to partner with them,” says Dawn M. Simmons, Artistic Director of Front Porch Arts Collective. The unexpected invitations came after Front Porch received a LAB grant to present staged readings of plays by the AfricanAmerican playwright Marcus Gardley. After attending the readings, several theaters invited Front Porch to co-produce plays in 2019, including Lyric Stage Company, Greater Boston Stage Company and Central Square Theater—which also offered the group a residency. This year, Central Square Theater and Front Porch will co-produce Gardley’s play black odyssey, which merges Greek mythology with the African American experience. “For over a decade, Boston has existed without a professional black-led theater company employing artists of color,” says Maurice Emmanuel Parent, Front Porch’s Executive Director. “Our namesake signifies a communal spirit, inspiring us to serve communities of color and produce art that is inclusive of all communities and welcoming to all audiences.”

“At Carbonite, we see diversity as an asset that enriches everything we do,” says Mohamad Ali, CEO of the fast-growing data protection company based in Boston. And so, through the Carbonite Charitable Fund, a Donor Advised Fund at the Boston Foundation, the company has invested in Hack.Diversity, a nonprofit that is working to increase the number of black and Latino workers in Boston’s innovation economy. But the company’s commitment doesn’t end there—it also offers internships to graduates of the program. The first, Eddison Razon, is now a full-time employee at Carbonite. Razon came to Boston from the Dominican Republic when he was 19 and went to Bunker Hill Community College, where he learned about Hack.Diversity and was one of its first students to be placed in an internship. “Everyone at Carbonite is really supportive,” says Razon who is thrilled to be working at the flourishing company. “They gave me an opportunity to change my life.” “Coding is my addiction,” says another Hack.Diversity intern placed at Carbonite, Ariana Gardner. “If I can do it all day, I’m happy.” Her ultimate goal is to develop software. Gardner received her degree in computer science at UMass Boston in the spring of 2018. “I was always one of the few African American females in a lot of my classes. I know there are a lot of young women and men of color who would like to have the opportunity I have—thanks to Hack.Diversity and Carbonite.”

HOW HACK.DIVERSITY WORKS Boston’s fast-growing tech companies have an unusual challenge: They desperately need more trained workers and the workforce they have now is not nearly as diverse as they would like it to be. Hack.Diversity was founded to meet that challenge. It was launched in 2016 by the New England Venture Capital Association with support from the Boston Foundation and the SkillWorks Funders Group. Hack.Diversity is taking on the underrepresentation of minority employees in Boston’s high-skills innovation economy by recruiting black and Latino computer science and


engineering students into the city’s fastest-growing companies—training, coaching and mentoring both employer and employee throughout the experience. “Our vision is a 100 percent increase in the number of black and Latino people working in the innovation economy in Boston,” says Hack.Diversity President Jody Rose. “We’re very excited about working with Carbonite and the other tech companies we’re partnering with to make that vision a reality.” The 2018 Hack.Diversity class

After disaster strikes in the United States, it can take weeks for well-meaning people to plan and mount a large-scale, organized response. When Hurricane Maria devastated the island of Puerto Rico on September 21st, 2018, it took Massachusetts just eight days. On September 29th, Boston Mayor Martin J. Walsh, Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker and the Boston Foundation—in partnership with the Latino Legacy Fund—announced the creation of Massachusetts United for Puerto Rico/Massachusetts Unido por Puerto Rico. The fund is dedicated to the relief and recovery of people living on the island as well as the support of evacuees in Massachusetts. The remarkable speed and organization were made possible by a strong confluence of relationships. First, the Boston Foundation has a close relationship with Boston’s Latino community, especially through its Latino Legacy Fund, the first Latino-focused fund in Greater Boston. Second, the Fund’s leaders and members have deep ties to Boston’s Puerto Rican community. Third, the Foundation had experience: It had mounted similar funds for relief in Haiti, Japan and Nepal after earthquakes struck those countries. Finally, the Foundation has strong relationships with city and state government. In the weeks immediately following the hurricane, Massachusetts United for Puerto Rico made more than $100,000 in grants to community-based organizations providing direct relief and funded Latino-led nonprofits to assist the thousands of Puerto Rican evacuees who poured into our state. Since then, the Fund has raised close to $4 million and distributed more than half of those funds in grants with more funds flowing every month. We now know that Hurricane Maria was one of the deadliest disasters in American history. Massachusetts United for Puerto Rico continues to accept donations from generous individuals and companies who understand that the crisis in Puerto Rico continues to have a profound impact on the well-being of its people and institutions—and will for many years to come.

THE BUSINESS EQUITY FUND

$2 Million Eastern Bank’s investment in the Fund

“Is this your family’s business?” Marianne Lancaster often was asked when she was starting Lancaster Packaging, Inc. Or even, “Is this your husband’s business?” The answer was always, “No, this is my business.” As an African-American woman, she started a company that has become a major supplier of wholesale packaging and industrial supplies to Fortune 500 firms. It occupies two large warehouses in Hudson, Massachusetts, employs 20 workers, has $18.7 million in annual revenue—and is poised for the next step. “The main thing holding us back? Access to capital.” Enter the Business Equity Fund, a partnership of Eastern Bank’s Business Equity Initiative (BEI), the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce’s Pacesetter Initiative and the Boston Foundation. At first, Lancaster was slightly leery about it, since past efforts to support minority-owned businesses have fallen short. After speaking with BEI Executive Director Glynn Lloyd, she was convinced to apply. Now, Lancaster Packaging is the first company to receive an infusion of capital from the Business Equity Fund at the Boston Foundation of $350,000. The goal is to increase the company’s revenue to $27 million and add 10 employees by 2020. Lancaster adds, “This investment will help us jump start our own next phase and go so much higher.”

AN ECOSYSTEM BUILT TO GROW MINORITY BUSINESSES The Business Equity Fund provides alternative financing and access to capital for qualified businesses owned by people of color that have been constrained by conventional financing practices. The Fund works alongside two other programs, forming an ecosystem approach. Eastern Bank invested $8 million in BEI, with the goal of helping minority businesses grow and thrive. The businesses are carefully vetted and matched with a strategic advisor—an experienced business executive who helps them develop and implement a strategic growth plan. The BEI team and the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce partnered to create the Pacesetters Initiative to encourage Chamber member organizations to use their collective purchasing power to create opportunities for local enterprises of color, particularly BEI participants. Finally, the Business Equity Fund at the Boston Foundation provides access to growth capital for the businesses. The Fund is designed to provide both flexible financing and patient

capital that produces a modest return so, ultimately, it can be self-perpetuating. With a $2 million initial investment from Eastern Bank, the goal is to grow the fund going forward. Access to growth capital is a cornerstone of the approach and early results are eye-opening. After only a year, the first 10 participating businesses have hired a total of 88 employees and added $11 million of revenue, in aggregate. Many have improved their organizational designs and created strategies to enter new markets or make acquisitions. “We know that, as these companies grow, they will not only thrive,” says Orlando Watkins, Boston Foundation Vice President for Programs, “they will employ more people and build more wealth for people of color. And that will lift everybody up.”

HEALTH STARTS AT HOME

Emergency room visits are down. So are stress levels and missed days of school. A sense of connection with neighbors is up, along with the intangible confidence that comes from positive change. These observations were shared at a gathering of front-line workers supported through Health Starts at Home (HSAH). They are housing advocates, community outreach workers, lawyers, intake coordinators and more. They gather periodically to share their ideas, victories and challenges. They are charting new ground with a Boston Foundation initiative that brings together housing and health organizations to demonstrate the benefits of stable housing on children’s

health outcomes. Historically, the housing and health care sectors have operated on separate tracks. Health Starts at Home, a consortium of partnerships, changes that. The initiative is crossing previously disconnected sectors and working in different ways with disparate service providers from small to mammoth. It is ambitious and complex, but so promising that the Foundation has been joined in supporting it by regional and national funders. Out of these pilot partnerships will come insights and best practices in identifying at-risk families, coordinating and integrating services, linking families to care networks and making the best use of existing services. That’s all very grand sounding at the high level, but it doesn’t take long sitting among the case workers and other professionals from the partnerships to see that at every level they are the lifeblood of the program. With profound care for the people they serve, they are personally learning new ways of interacting with counterparts across the health and housing landscape and continuing their tireless efforts to connect clients to resources. But there are rewards. “The most rewarding aspect of my work is the trust that my clients have in me and believing that I will do my best to help them,” says Housing Search Case Manager Elsa Villanueva of Metro Housing Boston. “My clients are so filled with kindness and gratitude when they speak with me. It makes it all worthwhile.”

For more than a decade, the Boston Foundation’s education strategy has been focused on the entire arc of a person’s life—from birth through college completion and beyond. In 2015, with the encouragement of the Foundation’s Board of Directors—and a growing body of compelling research about the importance of early development—the Foundation began researching Boston’s early childhood landscape with the goal of expanding its work in the area. A deeply committed group of Boston Foundation donors, called the Early Childhood Funding Collaborative, played a central role in shaping the Foundation’s strategy and providing the funding that would be needed to have a real impact. Its members include a retired pediatrician, several teachers, a physicist, a former child-care worker and a retired pediatric ophthalmologist—many of them also parents and grandparents. With their guidance, in late 2017, the Foundation announced its new early childhood strategy, and released a request for proposals. Most of the grants, which were announced in July of 2018, totaling $600,000, were funded by the Collaborative. The funding went to cross-sector partnerships involving some 37 different nonprofits and programs, all chosen for their efforts to seed or expand innovation among family-serving organizations. “Some of our thinking in early childhood has been informed by the work of the economist James Heckman,” says Elizabeth Pauley, the Foundation’s Associate Vice President of Education to Career. “His work proves that a person’s success in life, health and emotional well-being have their roots in early childhood development.” What is referred to as the “Heckman Equation” calls for investing in developmental resources for at-risk children; developing cognitive and character skills from birth to age five, when it matters most; and sustaining gains in early development with effective education through to adulthood. The result, Heckman maintains, is more capable and productive citizens who will pay dividends for generations to come.


NURTURING OUR GREATEST RESOURCE Marcia Kamentsky, an educator, admits that she can sound like she’s on a soap box when it comes to the topic of early education. “Our greatest resource for the future is children,” she says, “and, as a nation, we’re not focused on what needs to be done to take care of that resource. We should be helping all families provide their children with the best quality educators and spaces for learning. And that is especially so for children who may be challenged in their everyday lives, who come to school or child-care settings with a lot of trauma.” Marcia and her husband Lou Kamentsky are members of the Early Childhood Funding Collaborative and are also leaving a major bequest to the Boston Foundation to benefit early education permanently. “I see support of early childhood as among the best investments we could make,” says Lou Kamentsky, a physicist whose work has been grounded in medical research. “Human development peaks around the age of three. That’s the sweet spot for enabling capacity in intellectual and emotional intelligence. And because we’re investing through the Boston Foundation, we know that our support of early childhood is going to programs and people who are likely to benefit most. And because of the influence of the Boston Foundation, successes from here can spread across the country—even the world.”

TOGETHER for the

LGBTQ Community

While Massachusetts is considered by many to be the most welcoming state in America for members of the LGBTQ community to live, love and raise their families, a report published in May of this year by Boston Indicators, the Equality Fund and The Fenway Institute revealed that many are still struggling. A high percentage of young people are battling depression, even thoughts of suicide, and youth of color and transgender individuals are experiencing a tremendous amount of discrimination. The good news, also shared in the report, is that Massachusetts has more supportive public policies and services than any other state in the nation. And Greater Boston has the Equality Fund. Created in 2012 to support nonprofit organizations that serve and strengthen the LGBTQ community, the Equality Fund is stewarded by the Boston Foundation. Its grant-making priorities are guided by an Advisory Committee—community members and allies—who possess a depth and breadth of understanding about the most pressing issues affecting LGBTQ people. Some 35 nonprofits serving the LGBTQ community have received support from the Equality Fund over the last six years. Grantees include: Fenway Health, an iconic institution that is central to the well-being of the LGBTQ community; the Boston Alliance of LGBTQ Youth, which provides young people with a warm place to gather and receive support; and GLAD, the advocacy and defense organization that was at the center of the successful fight to win marriage equality in this country. Another grantee, the Massachusetts Transgender Political Coalition, also received this year’s Boston Foundation “Out of the Blue” award, a $50,000 surprise grant that is voted on by the Foundation’s staff. In addition to its current grant making, the Equality Fund is contributing to Greater Boston’s legacy of equality and equity by building a permanent endowment within the Boston Foundation’s Permanent Fund for Boston to benefit our city’s LGBTQ community for years to come and to expand the progress that has been made in the last five decades well into the future.

The Gilbert Fund Through the Gilbert Fund at the Boston Foundation, Jennifer Gilbert has made a major commitment to the Foundation’s work in the area of early childhood. She participates in the Early Childhood Funding Collaborative, which is made up of donors who have come together to play a key role in shaping the Foundation’s strategy in the area of early childhood. The Collaborative’s members also have committed a total of $1.2 million to support this important work. “Working with other donors and the Foundation’s staff who share this interest is both gratifying personally and effective for making an impact beyond what I alone can do,” says Gilbert. “It’s one of the benefits of being a part of the community at the Boston Foundation.”

BECOMING a

Donor

The Boston Foundation welcomes individuals, families, companies and entrepreneurs who seek a platform and partner for their charitable giving because, like them, we measure philanthropy by impact created, not just dollars given.

SUPPORTING SYSTEMIC CHANGE THROUGH CIVIC LEADERSHIP By working with the Boston Foundation, you become an important part of a dynamic community of problem solvers. Through research, forums and policy leadership, the Boston Foundation has helped to leverage hundreds of millions of dollars in federal and state funds, restructure our community college system, provide crucial state funds for cultural facilities and inform groundbreaking criminal justice legislation. This work is supported by the annual campaign for the Civic Leadership Fund, to which over 400 generous donors contributed last year.

HELPING YOU SHAPE YOUR LEGACY You don’t need millions to leave a legacy to the community you love. Through careful estate and succession planning, funds of any size can provide a permanent source of support for the causes you care about, while helping you realize financial and tax benefits. We can help you plan a lasting legacy by creating a Named Fund or Field of Interest Fund as part of the Permanent Fund for Boston, the Foundation’s endowment.

STREAMLINING YOUR PHILANTHROPY THROUGH A DONOR ADVISED FUND If you want to give confidently and have the greatest impact on the causes you care about most, whether in Greater Boston or around the globe, we will work with you to make it happen. For more than 30 years, the Boston Foundation has been an expert provider of Donor Advised Funds. Establishing a fund at the Boston Foundation is ideal for those who want the benefits of a private foundation with none of the administrative, legal, tax or regulatory burdens.

56


HELPING COMPANIES GIVE LOCALLY, NATIONALLY AND INTERNATIONALLY Partnering with the Boston Foundation on your company’s giving is an easy and dynamic way to maximize your impact on the communities you serve. We can customize a suite of services to assist with launching or growing your company’s giving program—in Greater Boston, nationally or internationally. Opening a Company Advised Fund at the Boston Foundation is a great alternative to establishing a corporate foundation—with all of the tax benefits and none of the administrative, legal, tax or regulatory burdens. The Foundation also encourages entrepreneurs to join Pledge 1% Boston to weave philanthropy into the fabric of their companies from the very beginning.

MAXIMIZING YOUR GIVING WITH THE PHILANTHROPIC INITIATIVE A pioneer in the field of strategic philanthropy for 30 years, The Philanthropic Initiative (TPI) is an internationally recognized provider of philanthropic consulting and management services. Under the umbrella of the Boston Foundation, TPI offers strategic advising to private foundations, families, individuals and corporations here and around the globe. Building from the values and interests of each client, TPI delivers innovative, customized solutions that help clients maximize the impact of their philanthropy by defining priorities and strategies, implementing programs and evaluating success.

GETTING STARTED Every donor arrives at the Boston Foundation with a unique story, vision and goal. Our rich diversity of expertise offers a host of opportunities to meet your unique needs. We invite you to contact us so that we may assist you in determining the best approach for you. For more information about becoming a donor or making a planned or legacy gift to the Boston Foundation, call or email the Philanthropy Group at 617-338-2213 or donorservices@tbf.org.

APPLYING for a

Grant

FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES Each year, the Boston Foundation distributes more than $15 million in grants and other support from our endowment, the Permanent Fund for Boston, which has been built over the years through outright gifts and bequests from hundreds of generous Boston area donors who care deeply about our community. Since 2009, the Boston Foundation has invested the majority of the resources from that fund to “move the needle� in a set of five impact areas and two crosscutting strategies. We also distribute a portion of our resources through Open Door Grants, designed to respond to the expressed opportunities and needs of the communities we serve. And a number of grants and strategic investments are made to special issue-focused initiatives.

FIVE IMPACT AREAS Major grants are made to proven or promising organizations and initiatives that seek to deepen their impact or bring their work to scale and are significantly aligned with our five impact areas: Education to Career Health & Wellness Jobs & Economic Development Neighborhoods & Housing Arts & Culture

58


CROSSCUTTING STRATEGIES The Boston Foundation also pursues two crosscutting strategies: The Nonprofit Effectiveness strategy supports and promotes effective, inclusive and sustainable nonprofits in Greater Boston by focusing on three core competencies: support, develop and recognize the sector’s leadership and build a diverse and inclusive nonprofit sector leadership pipeline; strengthen organizational capacity by bolstering the operational effectiveness of individual nonprofits and advancing the sector’s capacity for collective action; share resources with the sector by facilitating strategic, data-driven philanthropy via the Giving Common (www.givingcommon.org), an open online database that connects robust information about more than 1,100 Massachusetts nonprofit organizations with donors, funders and other stakeholders. The Grassroots strategy is set up to respond quickly to community needs, with grants from the Grassroots Fund that range from $200 to $10,000 going to grassroots organizations anchored in Boston’s neighborhoods. These grants help people come together, establish relationships, strengthen political will, form caring connections, heal divides and build clout and resilience.

OPEN DOOR GRANTS The Open Door Grants program is designed to respond to the community’s expressed ideas and needs. New and existing nonprofit organizations in Greater Boston that are not directly aligned with the strategies, goals and approaches pursued in the Foundation’s five impact areas can apply for support to meet existing needs as well as test new ideas and innovations that address the most critical challenges and biggest opportunities facing Greater Boston. Visit www.tbf.org/grants for more information about all of these Funding Opportunities and detailed guidelines that will help organizations apply for a grant.

59


2018 FINANCIALS

The Boston Foundation has a mandate both to fulfill its role as Greater Boston’s community foundation today—by maximizing the dollars available for making grants—and ensuring that the charitable dollars entrusted to the Foundation are available to continue this work tomorrow and in perpetuity. Robust development efforts and a well-diversified investment strategy enable the Foundation to meet these objectives.

FUND FOR THE 21ST CENTURY The Boston Foundation offers three separate investment pools within the Fund for the 21st Century. These three pools allow donors to select the option that best matches the time horizon of their charitable giving plans. Donors may also customize their asset allocation by investing among all three pools. The Balanced Plus Pool asset mix is expected to produce the highest long-term investment return. Accordingly, the Boston Foundation invests its endowment assets in the Balanced Plus Pool.

FINANCIAL OVERSIGHT The Foundation’s Investment Committee establishes investment policy and monitors the individual investment managers and their performance, and the Board sets each year’s spending rate. The Investment Committee is assisted by an independent investment consulting firm.

The Balanced Plus Pool assets include global stocks, investments with flexible capital managers, private equity, venture capital, real estate, and treasury securities. Diversification among multiple asset classes should help to reduce the volatility of the Foundation’s investment returns.

ASSET ALLOCATION Balanced Plus Pool

THE SPENDING POLICY By using a spending policy, the Foundation helps to ensure that the charitable funds will be protected for the future, while continuing to have the most impact today. The 2018 spending rate was 6% for its permanently restricted discretionary funds. For Fiscal Year 2019, the Board approved a spending rate of 5.75% for its discretionary endowment. The Foundation uses a smoothing mechanism that helps balance the current endowment market value and the previous level of spending. Spending is equal to 70% of spending from the previous year, adjusted for inflation, plus 30% of the 5.75% spending rate applied to the current market value. The approved spending policy rate for designated endowment funds is 5% for Fiscal Year 2019.

THE PHILANTHROPIC INITIATIVE The Philanthropic Initiative, Inc. (TPI) is a significant business unit of the Foundation. TPI designs, carries out and evaluates philanthropic programs for individual donors, families, foundations and corporations. The experience and reputation of TPI significantly expands the range of philanthropic services the Foundation offers. During Fiscal Year 2018, the operations of TPI added $2.5 million of service fee income to the operations of the Foundation.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS Total assets of the Boston Foundation increased from $1.1 billion to $1.3 billion at June 30, 2018. For the year, net investment returns for the Balanced Plus Pool were 8.9%. During this same period, the Foundation received $203 million in contributions and paid $129 million in grants. Expenditures for program support and operating expenses totaled $22.5 million, thus explaining the change in total assets.
