IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt0AFTER BENCHMARKING OTHER ORCHESTRAS AND THEIR FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE, AND CAREFUL ANALYSIS OF LONG-TERM FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS, THE GRAND RAPIDS SYMPHONY BOARD OF DIRECTORS IDENTIFIED A NEED FOR AN INCREASED ENDOWMENT TO HELP ENSURE THAT ENDOWMENT INCOME AS A PERCENTAGE OF THE BUDGET IS COMPARABLE WITH OTHER WELL-RUN, STABLE ORCHESTRAS. IT WAS DETERMINED IN 2007 THAT THE THE CURRENT ENDOWMENT CORPUS WAS NOT SUFFICIENT TO ACHIEVE LONG-TERM INSTITUTIONAL OBJECTIVES. DECISIONS WERE MADE TO INCREASE THE ENDOWMENT TO A LEVEL THAT BETTER SUPPORTS THE MISSION AND VISION OF THE SYMPHONY AND ITS SERVICE TO THE PEOPLE OF GRAND RAPIDS AND WEST MICHIGAN. AS GUIDED BY THE STRATEGIC FINANCIAL PLAN, THE GRAND RAPIDS SYMPHONY CONDUCTED THE LEGACY OF LEADERSHIP ENDOWMENT CAMPAIGN. THE $40MM GOAL WAS MET AND EXCEEDED IN MAY OF 2016. THE CAMPAIGN COMMITMENTS WERE CASH, PLEDGES AND PLANNED GIFTS WHICH WILL MATURE OVER A PERIOD OF MANY YEARS. THE FUNDS ARE MANAGED FOR LONG TERM GROWTH AND GENERATE REVENUE FROM INVESTED FUNDS WHICH APPLIED TO THE OPERATING BUDGET. COMPLETION OF THE CAMPAIGN CREATED A STRONGER FINANCIAL FOUNDATION FOR THE SYMPHONY, AND COMPLEMENTS AGGRESSIVE ANNUAL GIVING REVENUE. ACTIVE AND ONGOING PLANNED GIVING PROGRAMS ARE IN PLACE TO SUSTAIN THE ENDOWMENT AND INCREASE INVESTED ASSETS. THE SYMPHONY'S ENDOWMENT FUND WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT ARTISTIC, EDUCATIONAL AND ACCESS PROGRAMS AS WELL AS COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT PROGRAMS FOR FUTURE GENERATION TO COME.
