The focus of the organization is: partnering and collaborating with key institutions, agencies, foundations and corporations. 0 0 150190 For more than three decades, the Women's Foundation of Genesee Valley (WFGV) has been a catalyst for advancing economic self-sufficiency, leadership, and opportunity for women and girls across the Greater Rochester Area. Each year, WFGV directly serves more than 600+ women and girls through dynamic programs, professional development sessions, mentorship experiences, and youth leadership opportunities. Indirectly, our reach extends to over 20,000 community members through our advocacy work, awareness campaigns, and collaborative partnerships that strengthen the ecosystem of support for women and girls. WFGV operates through two vital arms that work in harmony to achieve lasting impact. (Continued on Schedule O)The first arm is our programmatic and community engagement division, which is powered entirely through fundraising. Through this arm, we design and deliver experiences that amplify the voices of women, equip them with tools for professional and personal growth, and cultivate a network of empowerment that uplifts generations. Signature initiatives include the Power Her Forward Girls Conference, the Girls Leadership Committee, Law Enforcement Days, 1:1 Coaching, Career Exploration Fieldtrips, and tailored programming for girls with intellectual disabilities. All for girls between the ages of 12-19. We also offer professional development opportunities for adult women focused on entrepreneurship, business fundraising, brand building, and professional etiquette. Each experience is designed to spark confidence, strengthen skills, and inspire lasting change. Together, these programs create a ripple effect that advances fairness, economic mobility, and community transformation. This program is supported by contributions. 12000 12000 The Women's Foundation of Genesee Valley manages a grantmaking endowment, which is designated for providing grants to nonprofits that align with our mission. We consider this to be our second arm of programming. Each year, our grantmaking efforts directly impact more than 20,000 women and girls in the Greater Rochester Area, including families and community members who gain from stronger, more accessible systems of support. This managed endowment is solely dedicated to grantmaking, ensuring that funds entrusted to us continue to strengthen the region's nonprofit network for generations to come.(Continued on Schedule O)While the endowment is used to support other organizations, the Women's Foundation of Genesee Valley remains responsible for actively fundraising to sustain its own programs and initiatives. This program is supported by net investment returns. 162190 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 12 0 1 2 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 7 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 NY X X Krystle Ellis 5852420940 494 East Avenue Rochester NY 14607 Sydney Bell Chair 0.40 X X 0 0 0 Brianna Stephenson-Vallot Treasurer 0.40 X X 0 0 0 Audrey Wackerman Vice Chair 0.40 X X 0 0 0 Mary Moore Secretary 0.40 X X 0 0 0 Sharon Hancock Director 0.40 X 0 0 0 Courtney Laffler Director 0.40 X 0 0 0 Tae'lor Jackson Director 0.40 X 0 0 0 Krystle Ellis Executive Director 40.00 X 102487 0 0 102487 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 38698 205801 244499 48873 48873 429218 284754 144464 144464 144464 44547 38698 44547 0 437836 0 0 193337 X 12000 12000 102487 40995 20497 40995 61253 35269 17234 8750 7113 3278 1642 2193 8298 3900 1909 2489 2200 2200 12876 12876 86964 35082 46689 5193 16362 4645 9920 1797 14224 6659 4303 3262 2712 460 2142 110 1280 1280 Supplies 16127 16127 Food and Entertainment 3974 3775 199 12593 12135 458 360463 162190 133026 65247 95782 28340 97050 9847 9272 2021007 1928361 14097 156238 2140733 2219261 25530 38756 13666 155701 39196 194457 X 80530 -32677 2021007 2057481 2101537 2024804 2140733 2219261 77373 -3778 -150328 0 X 1 X 0 1 0 X 148401 183686 59685 197258 244499 833529 148401 183686 59685 197258 244499 833529 94077 739452 39666 36434 46090 50959 48473 221622 13609 1350 44547 59506 1114657 0.66340 0.74350 X Schedule A, Part II, Line 10, Explanation of Other Income: Other Income Special Events Gross Income RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 2021007 159977 189471 12000 417218 12876 1928361 1890243 183628 5200 33995 13669 2021007 2484760 4142 -399850 102000 81465 15344 1890243 2283727 145151 310733 100000 137938 16913 2484760 2112577 73835 229280 100000 17716 14249 2283727 0.00000 0.16000 0.84000 0 0 0 Right of Use Asset 5012 Security Deposit 687 Investments Held for Others 150539 156238 Funds Held For Others 150539 Operating Lease Liability 5162 155701 Part V, Line 4: Earnings from the endowment fund are distributed to support a range of women's and young women's organizations as approved by the Board of Directors.
