History

Formation

The George Gund Foundation was created in 1952 as a private foundation [2] by George Gund II, a businessman living in Cleveland, Ohio. Gund inherited a sizeable brewing industry fortune from his father. [3] President Woodrow Wilson signed the Food and Fuel Control Act into law on August 10, 1917, which banned the manufacture of retail liquor and beer for the duration of the emergency created by World War I. [4] Unable to make beer, in May 1919 Gund purchased all 15,000 shares of the American subsidiary of the German company Kaffee HAG, which had developed a process for manufacturing instant decaffeinated coffee. [5] Spending just $318,768 ($5.38 million in 2022 dollars) to purchase the company, [6] Gund sold it to Kellogg's in 1927 for $10 million ($168 million in 2022 dollars). [7] Gund became a major stockholder in Kellogg's, and invested in banking, insurance, and real estate. Among his investments was the purchase of a significant amount of stock in the Cleveland Trust Company, a small Cleveland bank. He was named a director of the bank in 1937, its president in 1941, and chairman of the board in 1962. Gund transformed the bank into Cleveland's largest bank; at the time of his death, it was the 18th largest bank in the United States. [8] He was one of Cleveland's richest men at the time of his death in 1966, [9] worth about $200 million ($1.76 billion in 2022 dollars). [10] [11] [lower-alpha 1]

At the end of 1953, the George Gund Foundation had assets worth just $166,878 ($1.85 million in 2022 dollars). [17] The foundation received certification from the Internal Revenue Service as a 501(c)(3) charitable organization in 1955. By 1960, it had about $30 million ($296,800,000 in 2022 dollars) in assets. [18] Disbursement of funds to various causes left the George Gund Foundation with just $16.4 million ($154,700,000 in 2022 dollars) in assets by 1964. [19] In the 1950s, the foundation focused primarily on education and grants were small, ranging from $10 to $10,000. Grant amounts began to become substantially larger after 1960. [20]

Transition period

At Gund's death in November 1966, his estate was worth about $24.5 million ($221 million in 2022 dollars) after the payment of debts and fees. [14] [lower-alpha 2] The bulk of his estate went to the George Gund Foundation. With this contribution, the fund's assets rose to just over $40 million ($361 million in 2022 dollars). [15] [16] [lower-alpha 3]

George Gund II's death left the foundation in the hands of four trustees: His 27-year-old son, Gordon Gund; George F. Karch, chairman of the Cleveland Trust Company; Frederick K. Cox, vice chairman of the Cleveland Trust Company; and Hawley E. Stark, corporate legal counsel for the Cleveland Trust Company. The latter three were all George Gund II's close friends. [21] Stark became the foundation's president. [22] [lower-alpha 4]

In 1967, 1968, and 1969, the George Gund Foundation made $9 million worth of donations, of which $6.5 million went to name buildings and programs in honor of George Gund II. [20]

Expansion in vision

In 1969, the foundation hired its first full-time staff person. [23] This was James S. Lipscomb, and he served as executive director of the George Gund Foundation from 1969 until his death in June 1987. During Lipscomb's tenure, the foundation trustees began re-examining the foundation's focus and decided to widen its focus to include civic, cultural, social, [23] economic, and environmental needs. [20] For the first time, the George Gund Foundation began supporting community organizations and began making grants to nonprofits working in the areas of affordable housing, child abuse prevention, drug abuse prevention, gun control, and juvenile justice. [23] Under Lipscomb's guidance, the foundation's assets grew significantly from 1970 to 1981, [20] reaching $83 million ($267 million in 2022 dollars). [24] [lower-alpha 5] By 1972, George Gund III and Albrecht Saalfield (Agnes Gund 's husband) had joined the board of trustees, [22] and by 1986 there were seven staff working alongside the executive director. [23] The foundation made $45 million in grants from 1970 to 1981, [20] and another $50 million in grants from 1982 to 1988. [25]

Hawley E. Stark retired from the board of trustees in 1973, and Frederick K. Cox became the foundation's president. [26] Geoffrey Gund joined the board in 1976. [27] Henry C. Doll served as Acting Executive Director from Lipscomb's death until August 1988. He was succeeded as acting director in September 1988 by Richard M. Donaldson. [25] David Bergholz, the assistant director of the Allegheny Conference on Economic Development, was named the new executive director in November 1988. He began his tenure in January 1989. [28]

Berholz executive directorship

In 1990, the George Gund Foundation had assets of about $303.5 million ($680 million in 2022 dollars), and donated just over $11.9 million ($26.9 million in 2022 dollars) in grants that year alone. [29]

Frederick K. Cox died in 1994, [30] and Geoffrey Gund became president. [27] At the time he assumed the presidency, the Gund Foundation had just two full-time staff and was making about $3.5 million ($6.91 million in 2022 dollars) in grants annually. [27]

In the 1990s, the Gund Foundation gave $15 million ($28 million in 2022 dollars) to the Great Lakes Science Center to help construct its building. Made to help improve the city's cultural offerings in time for the city's bicentennial in 1996, it was the largest single grant in the foundation's history. [31] By 2002, however, the foundation had given $25 million over several years to the Foundation Fighting Blindness. [32] [lower-alpha 6]

Catherine Gund, Agnes Gund's daughter, joined the board in 1998. [27]

By 2002, the Gund Foundation's board of trustees had grown to eight. Six Gund family members were on the board of trustees, including newly appointed trustee Zachary Gund (Gordon's son). The foundation had also begun to expand its grantmaking to include boosting nonprofit organizations doing good work but which needed funds to reorganize, reorient, or merely overcome bad luck in order to survive. Combined with the recession that began in 2001, the foundation's endowment had shrunk slightly to $425 million ($691 million in 2022 dollars). [32]

Bergholz retired at the end of 2002, and was succeeded by David Abbott, president of University Circle Inc. [34] [lower-alpha 7] Abbott, a former Cuyahoga County administrator, worked closely with the Gund Foundation as executive director of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and as executive director of the Cleveland Bicentennial Commission. [34]

Abbott executive directorship

In 2014, the George Gund Foundation joined Cuyahoga County in launching the nation's first county-level Pay for success (PFS) project aimed at reducing the amount of time children whose families are homeless stay in foster care. [36]

In November 2019, Geoffrey Gund retired as president of the George Gund Foundation. [37] The board elected Catherine Gund as his successor. [27]

At the time of Geoffrey Gund's retirement, the Gund Foundation was awarding about $25 million ($28.6 million in 2022 dollars) in grants annually and had a staff of 12. The fund had distributed $722 million in grants during its history, $584 million of which came during Geoffrey Gund's tenure as president. [27] With assets worth $486.9 million ($567 million in 2022 dollars) as of 2018, the George Gund Foundation was Cleveland's second-largest foundation, behind The Cleveland Foundation, [1]

Grantmaking

The George Gund Foundation's interests include: Arts, Economic Development and Community Revitalization, Education, Environment, and Human Services. The Foundation's focus is centered in Greater Cleveland, [38] though a portion of the Foundation's grantmaking supports state and national policy making that bolsters its work locally. The Foundation only makes grants to 501(c)(3) organizations and to qualified government units and agencies.

Lake View Cemetery is a privately owned, nonprofit garden cemetery located in the cities of Cleveland, Cleveland Heights, and East Cleveland in the U.S. state of Ohio. Founded in 1869, the cemetery was favored by wealthy families during the Gilded Age, and today the cemetery is known for its numerous lavish funerary monuments and mausoleums. The extensive early monument building at Lake View helped give rise to the Little Italy neighborhood, but over-expansion nearly bankrupted the burial ground in 1888. Financial recovery only began in 1893, and took several years. Lake View grew and modernized significantly from 1896 to 1915 under the leadership of president Henry R. Hatch. The cemetery's cautious management allowed it to avoid retrenchment and financial problems during the Great Depression.

George Gund II was an American banker, business executive, and real estate investor who lived in Cleveland, Ohio, in the United States. He inherited his father's fortune and used a portion of it to purchase alien property seized during World War I.

Gund became a director of the bank in 1937 and president in 1941. He led the transformation of the institution into one of the largest banks in the United States. He retired as president in 1962, and was named chairman of the board of directors. A philanthropist for most of his life, he established The George Gund Foundation in 1952.

Originally known as the Cleveland and Mahoning Railroad (C&M), it was chartered in 1848. Construction of the line began in 1853 and was completed in 1857. After an 1872 merger with two small railroads, the corporate name was changed to "Cleveland and Mahoning Valley Railroad". The railroad leased itself to the Atlantic and Great Western Railway in 1863. The C&MV suffered financial instability, and in 1880 its stock was sold to a company based in London in the United Kingdom. A series of leases and ownership changes left the C&MV in the hands of the Erie Railroad in 1896. The CM&V's corporate identity ended in 1942 after the Erie Railroad completed purchasing the railroad's outstanding stock from the British investors.

[13] Musson's claim is contradicted by the findings of the probate court, which found an estate worth just $25 million.
