Strategic Plan 2010-2013: Digging Deeper for Impact, Building Networks for Change

The Foundation adopted a new, three-year strategic plan at the end of January 2010.  Key points of the plan include:

• A new statement of mission, vision and values.  Although core mission areas remain the same, the Foundation added community access to the arts.  
• A new grant-making structure for Illinois which places greater emphasis closer to home in Coles County, and on supporting innovation. 
• A continued commitment to convening nonprofits and supporting organizational and nonprofit sector development in East Central Illinois. 
• A continued commitment to deep engagement in the enterprise by Lumpkin family members.
