2008/2009
Annual Report
Dear Neighbors and Friends,
For over 60 years, the Concord-Carlisle Community Chest has been building
community in Concord and Carlisle. The Chest is a multifaceted organization with
35 human service agencies, thousands of donors, four part-time staff members,
several special funds, and over 50 active volunteers - all coming together to support
children, teens, seniors, and families.
Member Agencies & Organizations
This year, the Chest achieved its goal of raising $620,000 during a tough economic
period. Loyal donors continued their support and some even increased their gifts
to cover those unable to give. On June 11th, lead donors, sponsors, and allocations
team members gathered at our annual Celebrate Giving ceremony and distributed
grants totaling $525,972 to 35 agencies. We are extremely grateful to the many
volunteers who spent countless hours visiting member agencies, reviewing
applications, and recommending grants to our board.
When you give to the
Community Chest, your
support is multiplied
by the Chest’s staff,
volunteers, and donors.
We hope you will join us
in creating community for
everyone in our towns.
We had several other exciting events this year, beginning with an agency workshop
in November on the condition of non-profits in Massachusetts. We were delighted
to host speakers State Representative Cory Atkins and State Senator Susan C.
Fargo, who shared information and answered questions from agency members.
In April, the Chest added a Community Impact Fund to our two existing Field of
Interest funds (for Scholarships and the Environment). The Community Impact
Fund grew out of recognition of the increased financial instability in our state, and
provides financial assistance for basic needs so as to help individuals and families
cope with the impact of the current economic crisis. Applications for all three funds
are now being accepted.
In June, the Chest board of directors welcomed new members Amanda Hickman,
Wendy McNally, Maura Perkins, Mark Russell Prior, and Bridget Saltonstall. Two
board members who have worked tirelessly for the past six years, Linda Escobedo
and Sarah Newton, will become overseers.
The fiscal year concluded with the Challenge triathlon on June 7th, which raised
more than $15,000. This annual event is both for fundraising and FUNraising, with
over 200 participants of all abilities and dozens of hardworking volunteers. Teams
of six bike, run, and paddle to the finish line at the Old Manse. Proceeds benefit our
member agencies, many of whom also participate in the event.
Looking ahead to next year, we will no doubt face an even more difficult financial
climate and expect agency requests to increase substantially. We will continue to
look to our donors and sponsors to help us meet local need. When you give to the
Community Chest, your support is multiplied by the Chest’s staff, volunteers, and
donors. We hope you will join us in creating community for everyone in our towns.
Sincerely,

ver the past year, the Chest was
pleased to grant gifts totaling
$45,250 from Field of Interest
Funds (FOIF) and the Cornerstone
Fund to many deserving nonprofit
organizations. Each written proposal
was carefully reviewed by a committee
comprised of the donor, community
volunteers, Chest board members,
overseers, and the executive director.
Field of Interest Funds,
initiated in 2006,
address relevant need
outside of the regular
allocations process.
Based on donor
concern for specific
initiatives, the Chest
has established
funds for the
environment,
scholarships, and
community impact.
These funds require a minimum $10,000
gift that is distributed over a 3-year
period. New donors are welcome at any
time during the year. The following
programs and projects were funded in
FY08/09:
A n nu a l R e p o r t , 2 0 0 9
From the Environmental Field of Interest Fund:
Sudbury Valley Trustees received $2,000 to conduct a
botanical inventory and historical review of Gowing’s Swamp
Concord Conserves received $2,000 towards a carbon
footprint meter
Battle Road Farms received $2,500 for curriculum development
From the Scholarship Field of Interest Fund:
Concord Conservatory received $1,000 for music scholarships
Emerson Umbrella received $1,000 for program scholarships
Community Outreach Coordinator was given $1,000 to support
needy families
Concord Recreation Department received $10,000 for Metco
summer camp students and $750 for a “Sneaker Fund” in
conjunction with the Community Outreach Coordinator
Jointly awarded from the Community Impact Field of
Interest Fund and Cornerstone Fund:
Be the Change Movement was granted $5,000 for Challenge
Day, a student program that addresses bullying, drugs, alcohol
and other isolating behaviors.
A significant gift of $20,000 was awarded to the Virginia Thurston Healing Garden to start-up an initiative to provide sustainability for the organization which provides breast cancer support
services. The Healing Garden will offer Continuing Education
classes, at a fee, to medical providers such as social workers and
physical therapists who need licensure renewals.

$75,000 in Scholarships Provide Access to Many

ducation and recreation are
highly sought after in the
Concord-Carlisle area. Several
local programs receive funding from
the Community Chest each year so that
they can provide scholarships to families
in need. As the economic slowdown
continues, more

be impacted
financially
and need to
seek help from
these important
organizations.
Carlisle. This year, 14 children received
scholarships, with the typical award
being 25% of tuition. More families have
applied for the current school year.
“We are so grateful to the Community
Chest for this funding,” said Pat Nelson,
executive
director. “Since
Massachusetts
has dramatically
lowered its
reimbursement
rates, other
programs in the
area are unable
to accept children
who receive
state funded
assistance like
we do, limiting
access to quality early education
programs for low income families. So the
scholarship funds we receive from the
Chest are essential to our program and
community.”
“ I am deeply grateful to
the Children’s Center
(and Community Chest
funding)… for making
this school affordable to
us… and for ensuring
that the student population is relatively diverse.
Concord
Children’s
Center is one
such agency that
provides yearround childcare and early education
for children starting at ten weeks
of age. Since its inception in 1975,
this organization has offered tuition
assistance, through an annual grant
from the Community Chest, to families
who live in or work in Concord or

A mother whose children attend
the Concord Children’s Center on

that the student population is relatively

A
nother local organization offering
Chest-funded scholarships
is CAPA, Concord Area Preschool
Association, comprised of area
preschool teachers and directors. CAPA
maintains a scholarship fund, enabling
some families to send their children
to preschool who otherwise could not
afford it. Grants of up to $1,500 are
need-based. Last year eight children
received scholarships from CAPA.
scholarship help from Concord
Recreation, Carlisle Recreation, local
Girl Scout and Boy Scout organizations
and the Concord-Carlisle Adult &
Community Education program. The
Community Chest has been funding
these important agencies for many
years so that local resources are made
available to everyone. For example,
Concord Recreation helps subsidize
summer camp for 90 local children
while the Adult & Community
Education program extends financial aid
to 300 individuals. Any child who wants
to be a scout and cannot afford the dues
is eligible to receive a scholarship.
Whether it is for camping, swimming or
summer sports, preschool or educational
courses, the Chest enables local
organizations to enrich the lives of many
through scholarship aid.
Leisure activities such as summer
camp and scouting are also important
to families in the area although many
cannot afford programs without

T3 Program Assists New Orleans Service Trip
L
ast February, the T3 Program at Concord-Carlisle
High School helped fund a student-led service trip
to New Orleans comprised of 16 people who might
not have otherwise interacted with each other. The trip was
planned by CCHS then-junior Caleb Brewer with the assistance of teacher and chaperone Kevin Pennucci.
The T3 Project (Teachers/Talent/Time) was initiated in
2000 with a $50,000 grant from the Community Chest’s
Cornerstone Fund, providing small and specialized grants
to offset teacher expenses related to afterschool efforts with
at-risk youth.
During the week-long New Orleans project, students fanned
out daily to different locations and assisted with repairing
houses damaged by Hurricane Katrina. Students scraped
walls, painted and hung sheet rock as a team. When they
were not working, they were preparing food together so that
by the end of the week, everyone had gotten to know the
other students in the group.
For organizer Caleb Brewer, the best part of the trip was
“seeing all the hard work pay off and bringing together
people who might not have gotten together without this service learning.”
T3 supports projects that foster deeper connections and attract a diverse group of students, particularly those who may
be at-risk or are connected to few if any activities within the
school or community. The program has helped fund dozens
of teacher requests over the past 10 years and is administered
by Concord-Carlisle Adult & Community Education.

Challenge Race Attracts Hundreds
T
he communities of Concord,
Carlisle and Maynard came
together in early June to support
the 7th annual Chest Challenge relay
race for local human services. More
than $15,000 was raised for ConcordCarlisle and $8,000 for Maynard through
the efforts of 200 participants and 50
volunteers. It was a fun family day, where
everyone embodied the spirit of the race
which is meeting a challenge through
teamwork.
The top fundraising team was the Concord
Masters (pictured above), winning the
coveted golden paddle award for raising
$2600. The Chest also acknowledged the
additional fundraising of team Wildfire
and Carlisle Kids’ House which, as a
member agency, will keep all funds raised
over the $600 team fee.
