Established in 1914, The Cleveland Foundation is the world's first community foundation and the nation's third-largest today, with assets of $1.7 billion and annual grants surpassing $80 million. The Foundation improves the lives of Greater Clevelanders in perpetuity by building community endowments, addressing needs through grantmaking, and providing leadership on vital issues. Currently the Foundation proactively directs two-thirds of its flexible grant dollars to the community's greatest needs:  economic development, public school improvement, early childhood development, neighborhoods and housing, and arts advancement.
