Our annual report is dedicated this year to a very special group of people - our volunteers! Volunteerism has a long history at the Center — from those first volunteers who dedi- cated hours and hours refining the concept of the Family Resource Center — and who with nervous anticipation opened the Center in April of 1993. Since that time the Center has grown and added new programs including Toy Chest, Back to School Supply Drive, Winter WarmWear, Tax Preparation Assistance, and Project Starfish � One-on-One Support. Throughout this growth and change — the volunteers have been with us — doing whatever needed to be done. Our volunteers represent the "heart" of all we do! � '• �) ... �.� . � x4 1, I �� II I I � I ' .. . .. . . � .. . . . .. . . -._ � . . � � • � Dear Friends � Thank you for your support of the Family Resource Center. The year has been a challenge. Our community is experiencing new and emerging needs as well as problems that continue. Families, seniors and single adults call and stop in; sometimes they have long standing problems and other times they are dealing with new and frightening issues. As we have always done, all are welcomed with respect and dig- n ity. � We address those multi-faceted needs in many ways. Our Information & Referral, Food `�� Programs, Back to School, Winter WarmWear, Toy Chest, Housing Information, Tax Preparation Assistance programs are important programs and usually answer the need. Fortunately, we have Project Starfish to provide individualized support when the one-on- one approach would be the most helpful and useful. Your continued support of the work we do is so appreciated. I am always pleased, but never surprised, by the support of this community. Thank you so much! Sincerely, and with gratitude, Mary Tambornino President, Board of Directors �� I. �'�•� page 1.

Back to School � � : Back to Schooi remains our favorite time of the year — with families calling for assistance � with those ever-growing school supply lists! Volunteers play an important role in the sup- ply drive from arranging collection drives to delivering those donated school suppiies to the Center. More volunteers soon arrive to sort, count and bag those items — while other volunteers are busy setting up the Bonus Room where families will choose socks, under- wear, additional school supplies and that all-important backpack! School Year 2005 — 2006 827 children supplied School Year 2004 — 2005 807 children suppiied Winter WarmWear ��, Keepin' kids warm in the winter is something we love to do! Our Winter WarmWear room ��` is stocked with jackets, hats, mittens, scarves, boots — and those all important snow- pants! Volunteers play an active role in the initial set-up of this special room, keeping the room stocked — and assisting families as they shop for those needed WarmWear items. Winter of 2005 — 2006 1,235 items provided Winter of 2004 — 2005 1,003 items provided Tax Programs Our continuing partnership with AccountAbility provides needed tax preparation assis- tance to those we serve. Customers arrive at the Center from throughout the metro area — grateful for the service provided by this group of dedicated volunteers. Refunds from returns prepared at our Center continue to grow — in 2004 we topped the half million dol- lar mark — a figure appreciated by those we serve and the local economy! Tax Season 2005 378 customers, $548,630 in refunds Tax Season 2004 357 customers, $525,613 in refunds � . � ��.� page 3 ... . � ` . .� : • programs ,, � . . •, ~ Food Programs Food — the most basic need of all — continues to be an issue in the communities we serve. Our collaborative effort with Second Harvest Food Bank provides food to those of our most vulnerable citizens — mothers, children and senior citizens. The first Wednesday of . � .,�� , . each month is distribution day - with the truck from Second Harvest pulling up to our door. Food boxes are quickly unloaded — paperwork completed — and the truck pulis away. Already the line has begun to form as we begin to hand out the boxes. We've � gotten to know many of the folks who come each month — and look forward to their arrival. One of the more important projects we do each month.

Toy Chest 2005 835 Children ` Toy Chest 2004 852 Children Proj ect Starfish Project Starfish One-on-One Support continues to grow and change as needs grow and `` change in our communities. Based on the Starfish story — it has made a difference in the g lives of those we serve. Each day is different — as Project Starfish moves from one situ- § ation to the next. It may start with a mom struggling with a housing issue, followed by an elderly couple who need budgeting assistance — to a new family in our community .� looking for household items. Smart Money, our financial literacy program draws cus- tomers to the Center and the program. We're proud of Project Starfish — as it has pro- ��; vided that intensive one-on-one support so often needed by those we serve. �: -} 2005 Project Starfish Referrals/Contacts 584 _ � 2004 Project Starfish Referrals/Contacts 512 �� ` 4 �: , ... �� . comm :� _ .. �_ � Answering questions is such an important part of the work we do!

We pride ourselves in knowing a lot of information �� . — but we're also willing to say we don't know — but we'll find out and return their call. � And we do!
