Grants were originally given to institutions of learning, hospitals, and public charities in Ohio. After the death of Elizabeth Bingham Blossom in 1970, other family members maintained control of the foundation, and the focus of grantmaking changed to include organizations in the fields of the arts, sciences, education, and health and human services. Projects related to urban revitalization, adult psychological development, and nuclear issues were also undertaken. Environmental issues also took center stage in grants funding by the William Bingham Foundation. A majority of the collection contains materials related to grants administration, grant proposals, grant decisions, and grant reports. The rest of the collection consists of annual reports and annual meeting documentation, articles of incorporation, Blossom and Bingham family history, budgets and balance sheets, certificates, codes of regulations, committee records, correspondence, financial statements and reports, handbooks, investments, legal documents, meeting minutes and notes, special projects, photographs, reports, and tax records. | | | | Call #: | MS 5458 | | | | Extent: | 46.20 linear feet (47 containers) | | | | Subjects: | Bingham, William, 2nd, 1879-1955 | Charities -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Blossom, Elizabeth Bingham, 1881-1970 | Bingham family | Blossom family | Gale family | William Bingham Foundation | Charitable uses, trusts, and foundations -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Endowments -- Ohio -- Cleveland
