Foundation Financial Highlights for 2019-2020

On behalf of The Dayton Foundation, I would like to thank the Foundation’s many donors for their generosity and ongoing dedication to philanthropy.

During the last fiscal year (July 1, 2019 - June 30, 2020), The Dayton Foundation received $73.6 million into Foundation donor funds - a near-record high - and made more than 19,949 grants and distributions, totaling $66 million, to nonprofit organizations locally and across the nation. Since inception, the Foundation has helped its donors help others by distributing more than 382,000 grants totaling $1.04 billion. The Foundation’s total assets at fiscal year-end were $652.7 million after depreciation.

I also am pleased to report that the independent accounting and auditing firm of Flagel, Huber, Flagel & Co., has completed its fiscal year-end audit of the combined financial statements of The Dayton Foundation and related entities and has issued an unqualified opinion thereon. A complete copy of the audited financial statements may be obtained by request at 1401 S. Main Street, Suite 100, Dayton, Ohio 45409, or by calling The Dayton Foundation office at (937) 222-0410.

My thanks also go to the Foundation’s Finance and Audit Committee members, the investment managers, and our Finance and Accounting staff for their effort, support and advice.

James M. Vaughn, Chair
Finance Committee of The Dayton Foundation
