| Manuscript Collection | Requires cookie* | 2 | Title: | Cleveland Foundation Records, Series III
| | | Creator: | Cleveland Foundation | | | Dates: | 1955-1999 | | | Abstract: | The Cleveland Foundation was the first community trust established in the United States. It was organized in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1914 by Frederick J. Goff and the Board of Directors of the Cleveland Trust Company. It has provided funds for educational and artistic development and for humanitarian purposes such as housing and aid to children and the handicapped. The collection consists of grant files, both accepted and declined, which include agreements, award letters, brochures, budgets, correspondence, evaluations, financial statements, forms, memoranda, newsletters, notes, press releases, programs, proposals, and reports. All photographs and audio/visual media have been retained in their respective grant files. The Cleveland Foundation Assistance to Other Foundations series contains much the same document types as the grant files. Other document types contained in the collection include annual reports, articles, budgets, correspondence, declaration of trusts, forms, indexes, lists, memoranda, minutes, newsletters, notes, and reports. The dates of the grant files and assistance to other files series are not necessarily a date range of what is in the file, but are the dates given as the grant periods on the paperwork contained in the files. | | | Call #: | MS 5237 | | | Extent: | 365.80 linear feet (383 containers) | | | Subjects: | Arts -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Charitable uses, trusts, and foundations -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Charities -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Cleveland Foundation | Community development -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Economic development -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Education -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Endowments -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Human services -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | University Circle (Cleveland, Ohio)

The collection consists of minutes, annual reports, financial statements, correspondence, grant proposals and reports, articles of incorporation, legal petitions, newspaper clippings, tax returns, histories, and photocopies of the will and codicil of John Huntington. The majority of the records are concerned with the John Huntington Fund for Education, with a small amount of material from the John Huntington Arts and Polytechnic Trust and the John Huntington Benevolent Trust, as they relate to the John Huntington Fund for Education. | | | Call #: | MS 4801 | | | Extent: | 4.40 linear feet (5 containers) | | | Subjects: | Huntington, John, 1832-1893. | John Huntington Fund for Education. | John Huntington Arts and Polytechnic Trust. | John Huntington Benevolent Trust. | John Huntington Polytechnic Institute. | Cleveland Foundation. | Cleveland Museum of Art. | Cleveland Scholarship Services, Inc. | Charities -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Charitable uses, trusts, and foundations -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Education -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Science -- Study and teaching -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Vocational education -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Universities and colleges -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Taxation -- Law and legislation -- United States. | Art museums -- Ohio -- Cleveland.
