Foundation Performance

The Edna McConnell Clark Foundation holds itself accountable for achieving milestones in programs, strategy, financial, communications, and operations that are laid out at the beginning of each year.

In keeping with its commitment to reporting publicly its performance, the Foundation documents its progress, along with our grantees, in our annual reports and regular updates presented in this section. We believe such reporting is unique for not only a private foundation, but most nonprofits. In addition, through reports and occasional public letters from Foundation President Nancy Roob, we plan to provide regular updates on the progress of our work, as well as share lessons learned through our grantmaking.
