Dear Friends,

On behalf of Cleveland Scholarship Programs, we want to thank you, our supporters, for the help
you provided our students during a challenging year. As with so many charitable organizations, our
fund-raising efforts and our modest endowment were significantly impacted by the economy. We had
a lower than projected revenue stream, as the stock market’s downturn led to smaller grants from
foundations due to plummeting endowments. Additionally, rising unemployment and shrinking 401(k)
accounts resulted in reduced contributions from individuals.

In response, we drastically cut our central office expenses while maintaining our counseling services
and reducing only slightly the average scholarship grants we provide our students. Sadly, at the end of
the year, despite efforts to cut costs and raise additional funds, we were unable to fund 489 qualified
students who met our benchmarks for scholarship support.

While coping with these realities, we took on the task of developing a new long-term strategic plan for
our organization. Led by a long-time board director, facilitated by a first-rate consultant, and funded
by both the Cleveland and Gund foundations, we studied our successes and aspirations, keeping in
mind what we expect to be the future landscape of Greater Cleveland.

Based on research and input from community leaders, parents, schoolteachers and administrators,
we developed a plan to guide our efforts for the next five years. (You can read our new vision, mission
and goal statements on the facing page.) We renewed our commitment to Greater Cleveland’s
students - traditional and adult - and we pledged to serve greater numbers of students, widen our
geographic service area and find more grant money to distribute to students.

To achieve these goals, we are seeking increased collaboration and synergies with other community
groups who share our goal of increasing the number of Greater Clevelanders pursuing higher
education.

For example, we know from experience that getting students to college requires one-on-one
counseling from our advisors, a costly item in our budget. For the 2009-2010 school year, we tried
a new approach: We recruited recent college graduates to volunteer to work with our experienced
advisors as college and financial aid counselors in the schools.

These young volunteers are working through the AmeriCorps program - a concept similar to a
domestic Peace Corps. CSP is only the fourth program in the country to incorporate the federally
funded AmeriCorps members into college access counseling.

Our AmeriCorps program has been an overwhelming success and is on its way to becoming a national
model. We hope to double the number of members - from twelve to twenty-four - for the next school year.

Despite the challenges, our efforts continue to deliver measurable results for our students. The latest
statistics show that the six-year graduation rate of our students is 64 percent and their freshman-to-
sophomore retention rate is 87 percent. This compares most favorably to the national statistics for
low-income students, which are 24.5 percent and 58 percent, respectively, according to a 2009 report
from Postsecondary Opportunity in Education.

As we look ahead, we see a promising future for the students we help and for our organization as we
continue to serve Northeast Ohio. Again, thank you for your continued support of our students and
your confidence in our ability to serve the Greater Cleveland community. We have much to do and
are grateful to have all of you as our true partners.

Sincerely yours,

Harvey G. Oppmann Christina R. Milano

Chair, Board of Directors Chief Executive Officer

 Our Programs & Services

Resource Center

The emphasis is on service when you walk in the door of our Resource Center in the Atrium of 200 Public Square
in downtown Cleveland. The help we give high school students, their parents and adults returning to college is free
and open to anyone in Northeast Ohio. The Resource Center’s hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday
and from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, by appointment.

College-bound students can research schools, look for scholarship opportunities, learn about the various college
loan programs and even get help in applying to colleges. Because CSP’s financial aid department is part of the
Resource Center, our money experts are nearby to answer questions and help students fill out financial aid forms.

In the 21 ST century, the best anti-poverty

program around is a world-class education.”
- President Barack Obama: State of the Union Address, January 2010

Adult Learner Program

Cleveland Scholarship Programs is the only college access service in Northeast Ohio available to adults who want
to return to college. We help adults in 11 counties: Ashtabula, Cuyahoga, Geauga, Lake, Lorain, Mahoning, Medina,
Portage, Stark, Summit and Trumbull.

We offer advice to adults who schedule one-on-one sessions with our adult learner advisor at the Resource
Center or who attend our group workshops in the community. In the 2008-2009 fiscal year, we awarded more than
$500,000 in scholarships to 433 adults returning to college.

Advisory Services

During the 2008-2009 school year, our core advisors worked in 34

schools of the Cleveland Metropolitan School District, including all
high schools; 25 suburban schools and 12 parochial schools in Cuyahoga
County; and 11 public schools in Lorain County – a total of 82 schools.

We held college readiness workshops at the schools, attended by 26,458

sixth through eleventh grade students and we worked one-on-one with
5,670 students - largely eleventh and twelfth graders - on academic
advising, college entrance exams and applications, career exploration and
financial aid. And we took junior and senior high school students from

in the Cleveland Metropolitan School District: Carl and Louis Stokes traditional student
Central Academy, Luis Munoz Marin and Wilbur Wright elementary

Talent Search advisors help students learn about available financial aid
and explore college choices, offer tutoring and additional academic
support and provide cultural awareness activities.

A five-week enrichment program in the summer, held largely at the

downtown main branch of the Cleveland Public Library, offered seminars
on team-building, ACT preparation, dressing for success, college and
career search, etiquette, and field trips - including a Lolly the Trolley
cultural tour of Cleveland and visits to Baldwin-Wallace College and
Cleveland State University.

Of the high school seniors in the program, 87 percent graduated from

high school and 74 percent enrolled in a postsecondary institution. Talent

Scholarships

CSP Helps Students Pay for College

The main focus at CSP is to raise money for scholarships and to prepare students for college. During the 2008-
2009 fiscal year, CSP awarded 2,156 scholarships, amounting to $2.7 million, largely to students we helped prepare
for college. Most of our scholarships are renewable for three additional years, providing the recipients meet our
criteria. The scholarships come from many sources and criteria for them vary.

To be selected to receive a traditional CSP scholarship, students must attend a high school serviced by a CSP
advisor, demonstrate financial need, be recommended by the advisor and meet grade and SAT/ACT test score
standards. CSP provides scholarships to those age 19 and above who have interrupted their education for one
year or more and who are pursuing a non-degree certificate or license in a vocational or technical program, an
associate’s degree or first bachelor’s degree. Many of the traditional and “adult learner” scholarships are funded
by foundations, groups and individuals, such as the Rotary Club of Cleveland, the Jeanette Grasselli Brown
Scholarship for science majors, the Malone Scholarship Fund and the Jane D. White Fund of The Cleveland
Foundation.

CSP also manages scholarship programs for a number of outside organizations and corporations, including the
Cleveland Browns Marion Motley Scholarship (two annually) for students who want to work for a professional
sports organization; the Eaton Multicultural Scholarship for those who want to work for a manufacturing company;
The Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage scholarship, requiring a “Stop the Hate: Youth Speak Out” essay; a Rock
and Roll Hall of Fame scholarship to a student pursuing a career in the musical industry; and the Marcia W. LaRiche
scholarship for college-bound children of families affected by Lou Gehrig’s Disease.

Information about our scholarships and an online application can be found at www.cspohio.org.

 Our Achievements

Our Impact

For the 2008-2009 academic year:

- Our advisors helped nearly 19,000 high school students and adults prepare for college and apply for financial aid.
The high school students were from Cuyahoga and Lorain counties; the adults returning to college came from 11
Northeast Ohio counties.

- CSP awarded 2,156 scholarships, amounting to nearly $2.7 million, to low-income students. Scholarships averaged
$1,250 per student and most are renewable, if students continue to meet CSP eligibility requirements.

- With our guidance, CSP students received an additional $32.3 million in scholarships, grants, loans and work-study
from governments, institutions and private sources.

- Since 1967, as one of the first college access programs in the country, CSP has helped more than 225,000 students
prepare for college and has awarded approximately $45 million in scholarships.

- All of CSP’s access and financial aid services continue to be offered without charge, supported by funding from
foundations, corporations, governments and individuals.

in college and graduating from college at dramatically higher rates than is
the case nationally for low-income students. Charles Lowe, alumni

Eighty-seven percent of CSP scholarship recipients who started college

in the fall of 2007, returned in 2008 for their second year of college.
Nationally, the retention rate for low-income students is 58 percent,
according to a 2009 study by Postsecondary Opportunity in Education.

Even more impressive, 64 percent of CSP scholarship recipients earned

their college degrees within six years of graduating from high school in
2001. This compares to the national graduation rate of 23 percent for
low-income students, again according to the POE study.

CSP’s 64 percent graduation rate is 10 percent higher than the national

graduation rate for all students, not just low-income students, according
to the American Enterprise Institute, and 9.1 percent higher than the
Ohio graduation rate of 54.5 percent.

CEO Christina R. Milano said that CSP is successful “because of the

personal counsel and attention we provide each student who receives
one of our scholarships. Our advisors help students get accepted to
college and get financial aid, including scholarships from CSP, and our
staff continue to support students in college.

“We monitor a student’s academic progress, provide assistance with

college transfers, assist with financial aid questions and offer other help
as needed,” Ms. Milano said. “We are another set of eyes looking at the
student, and we reach out and help them when we see the need. Our
students know that once they are in college, they can turn to CSP for
help if they have a question or a matter that needs to be addressed.
CSP is making a major difference in improving the community.”

 Strategic Plan

Cleveland Scholarship Programs Adopts Five-Year Plan

In 2009, a year-long strategic planning process helped Cleveland

Scholarship Programs refocus our mission. In September 2009, the CSP
board approved new vision and mission statements and the addition of
four principles to guide us over the next five years. You can read these
statements on the inside cover of this report.

Our new Strategic Plan calls for CSP to raise significantly more funds to
help increase the number of students who go to college. The plan also

Dr. Bettinger also found that even a small increase in financial aid leads
Sherrill Marino, to a student’s persistence in college. “For every $1,000 increase in
adult learner scholarship dollars, the four-year-college graduation rate increases nearly
three percent,” he said.

The strategic planning process was lead by CEO Christina R. Milano,

board member Robert J. Schneider and board and staff members who
worked with Amy Morgenstern, a consultant who helps nonprofits manage
change. School and community leaders and CSP’s stakeholders were
surveyed and, in many cases, participated in meetings. The Cleveland and
Gund foundations funded the process.

The CSP staff implementation team has developed strategies, tactics

and performance measurements for the new goals which incorporate Dr.
Bettinger’s research and target CSP’s home base, Cuyahoga County.

 Social Media
and
‘Going Green’

Communicating by e-Newsletters, Facebook and Twitter

We had complementary dual initiatives in 2009 to “Go Green” and to introduce social media tools to reach out to
students, parents, donors, alumni and other supporters regardless of their geographic location.

Our “Green” efforts included publishing and distributing our annual report online (with a limited number of paper
copies available) and creating e-newsletters to replace paper ones. This 2010 Report to the Community is our
second report to be published virtually.

We have started requiring scholarship recipients to communicate with CSP via e-mail, including having their grades
and other reports sent electronically. The initiative saves postage and paper costs.

Thanks to a grant by the Nord Family Foundation, we added social media tools – Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, text
messaging, a WordPress blog and a live chat room – to the “College Live” tab on our web site, www.cspohio.org.

The idea is to deliver to students and their parents through electronic media the same high quality information
about college admissions and financial aid that they would receive in one-on-one meetings. Although our advisors
seek out students and meet with the entire school population, some students never find their way to an advisor’s
office. Many students work immediately after school and have no time to see their advisor. Others hesitate to
approach our staff, lose paperwork and fail to get needed documents – missing opportunities to receive our
scholarships.

CSP’s chat room is monitored by a CSP college advisor from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Mondays through Fridays, as is
our Facebook page. The advisor answers college-related questions in real time. Questions posted after hours are
answered the next business day.

Scholarship information and applications are on the www.cspohio.org site as well as news about events and
planning for college. The pilot project has also allowed us to help students set up 100 e-portfolios on the site.
We’ve posted 13 YouTube videos about CSP and have attracted more than 1,000 Facebook Fans, who are largely
scholarship recipients and high school students.

 12 AmeriCorps Volunteers Join CSP
As College Access Providers

Twelve AmeriCorps members joined Cleveland Scholarship

Programs in August – thanks to a grant from the Ohio Community
Service Council – to help us expand our advisory services in the
Cleveland Metropolitan School District (CMSD) and in Lorain
County schools.

CSP recruited recent college graduates for the AmeriCorps

program in the 2009-2010 school year. The AmeriCorps members
work alongside experienced CSP advisors to encourage first
generation, low-income and minority students to think about
and prepare for college. In Ohio, only 2 in 10 adults are college-
educated - nearly five percent below the national average.

Ten of the volunteers work in the 21 CMSD high schools. The

advisory services they provide allow CSP to offer counseling
services to some 1,500 additional CMSD students. Two of the
AmeriCorps members serve in 11 Lorain County schools, including
several schools new to CSP. The members also offer advisory
services at CSP’s Resource Center in the Atrium of 200 Public
Partnerships Square.

For their 11-month service, the volunteers receive an $11,400 living

allowance, health insurance and an education stipend of $4,725 to
repay college loans or use for future education.

CSP is working to develop a statewide college-advising pipeline

of AmeriCorps volunteers in partnership with the Ohio College
Guides, the Ohio College Access Network, The Ohio State
University Economic Access Initiative, the Cincinnati Youth
Collaborative and I Know I Can (Columbus).

$375,000 AFI Federal Grant Helps Students Save for College

We have a new program to encourage low-income students to save for college. And the terms of the savings plan
are quite attractive. Those who save for college will get a 4:1 return on their savings.

The program was made possible by a $375,000 grant from the Assets for Independence (AFI) program of the
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. With the grant CSP has set up a promising partnership with the
WECO Fund, Inc., a provider of financial services to low- and moderate-income individuals and businesses.

CSP will match AFI’s $375,000 in scholarship funds to help 210 students attend postsecondary schools. Students
from the Cleveland Metropolitan School District and surrounding school districts in Cuyahoga and Lorain counties,
CSP-supported college students and adults returning to college are eligible for the scholarships.

CSP advisors will help the students explore career and college options and offer advice. WECO will provide
financial counseling and monitor students to make sure they regularly save for college. Students must attend 16
hours of financial education – in person or online – and then participate in one-on-one financial coaching.

The payoff comes if a student saves $750 toward college. Then CSP and AFI will each award the student $1,500 in
scholarships, for a total of $3,000 which is an impressive 4:1 match toward postsecondary education expenses.

“At a time when it is more critical than ever for students to go to college we are pleased to collaborate with WECO
to leverage the financial resources available. By working with WECO we have established what we view to be a
perfect joint program,” said Christina R. Milano, CSP’s chief executive officer. “We are convinced that this program
will be a success and we hope that it will become a national model.”

Jimmy Malone continued to ramp up his fundraising efforts in 2009. In addition to his annual golf outing, he forged
fundraising partnerships for the Malone Scholarship Fund at CSP with the Winking Lizard taverns, Fleming’s Prime
Steakhouse & Wine Bar, Applebee’s, Mitchell’s Ice Cream, The Christmas Story House, Cleveland Beer Week and
the Great Big Home & Garden Expo, among others.

Since 1993, Mr. Malone, co-host of the “Lanigan and Malone” show on WMJI 105.7 FM, has assisted 97 students

 Partnerships

CSP/Scranton Road Ministries Partnership

Cleveland Scholarship Programs is in partnership with Scranton Road Ministries to help Lincoln West High School
students consider higher education and careers.

A $350,000 grant from the federal 2009 Workforce Initiative Act is helping Scranton Road’s Youth Jobs
Partnership provide students with job training, access to internships during winter and spring breaks, and jobs
during the summer. The grant also helps students participate in community service projects, and have access to
mentoring, tutoring, study and occupational skills training, and career and educational counseling.

The grant pays for extra CSP counseling days at Lincoln West High School, college visits, community presentations
and tracking students.

Lincoln West High School consistently falls below the average for the Cleveland Metropolitan School District on
academic measures. The school’s graduation rate two years ago was 47.9 percent compared to the district’s average
of 61.9 percent and the state average of 86.9 percent. The school is also at the bottom of district achievement rates
for the ACT and SAT exams.

Youth Opportunities Unlimited, Cuyahoga Metropolitan Housing Authority and the Cleveland Metropolitan School
District are also part of this partnership.

 Partnerships

Cleveland Foundation Renews $685,000 Grant

Thanks to the Cleveland Foundation, Cleveland Scholarship Programs is continuing our Postsecondary Access
Initiative during the 2009-2010 school year.

The program, which seeks to increase access to a college education for low-income, first-generation students facing
significant barriers such as academic preparation and affordability, is basic to CSP and includes advisory services
as well as scholarships.

The Cleveland Foundation grant is funding both, with $400,000 of the grant endowing scholarships. It also
supports visits to colleges and fee waivers for college applications, housing and tuition.

The grant is paying for 642 advisory service days in CMSD, East Cleveland and other inner ring schools so that
CSP advisors can work hand-in-hand with teachers and guidance counselors to raise awareness, foster college
aspirations and prepare students for postsecondary education.

New Partnership with E CITY, Youth Opportunities Unlimited and CSU

We are working with E CITY, Youth Opportunities Unlimited (Y.O.U.) and Cleveland State University in a
collaborative effort to teach entrepreneurship and offer supportive services to E CITY alumni. The services include
mentoring, job readiness, career exploration, opportunity fairs, internships, college prep workshops, college tours
and college scholarships.

The Charles R. McDonald Fund of The Cleveland Foundation has awarded $500,000 for the two-year program.
E CITY, a non-profit that teaches students entrepreneurial, business and life skills to enable economic
independence, is coordinating the grant. Y.O.U. concentrates on workforce development for Cleveland and East
Cleveland teens in poverty.

CSP is helping youth and their families explore college options; prepare for entrance exams; obtain career
counseling and assessment; and participate in college tours. Each year at least two students planning to attend
Cleveland State University are awarded scholarships.

Mary Paxton, E CITY associate director of development, noted that E CITY chose to work with CSP because of
our long history and great reputation for helping students attend college.

 John Marshall High School Mentoring Program

Hope of Tomorrow is a one-on-one mentoring program started by John

Carroll University students to work with CSP’s Talent Search students at
John Marshall High School.

The mission of the community service project is to foster relationships

between the high school and the college students and support one
another as they participate in activities which emphasize the importance
of education.

Julie Szeltner, Talent Search manager, said that short-term activities,

such as a field trip to a college or participation in a summer enrichment
program, do not offer Talent Search students enough exposure to college.
The Talent Search program has 635 students at six Cleveland Metropolitan
School District Schools (grades 6-12).

The CSP Szeltner started looking for a local college to adopt some Talent Search

To help students explore their options, this past school year CSP offered
college visits to all high school students in the Cleveland Metropolitan
School District. The first-time program was made possible by a $50,000
grant from the Great Lakes Higher Education Guaranty Corporation. On
each trip, 40 tenth and eleventh graders and five advisors visited a college
within a two-hour radius of Cleveland.

Before each trip, the students were briefed about the college and given
Great Lakes publications about the financial benefits of college. They
reviewed the demographics of the college’s students, the percentage of
financial aid received by students, and the courses offered.

On campus, the students met with admissions officers and then toured
classrooms, dorms, cafeterias, bookstores, computer labs and athletic and
arts facilities. On the bus home, advisors reinforced the benefits of the
visit. Students were encouraged to sign on to CSP’s Facebook and text-
messaging accounts to keep up their college-access connections.
