GREETINGS AND FAREWELL MESSAGE

FROM THE PRESIDENT

OF THE NSBCUW BOARD OF DIRECTORS Another productive year for the NSBCUW has passed and my last as President of the Board of Directors. As I say farewell I also want to remember the accomplishments of the staff and volunteers who helped move our UW into the new model of impact funding for our community in areas of health, education, and financial stability.

With a very small staff and many, many, active volunteers, programs were initiated to create the largest gains to our community in support of lower income families and children. One major program started three years ago is the VITA tax preparation program that operates from January through April of each year, assists individuals in accurate tax prepa-ration to receive Earned Income Tax and other tax credits for which they are eligible. Each year UW volunteers pre-pare hundreds of returns throughout northern SB County for hundreds of thousands of dollars in returns and a commu-nity impact in the millions.

Around the same time, UW volunteers disbursed pharma-ceutical discount cards to all of our local pharmacies as well as to the individuals in our network of care programs. With savings as high as 30% many individuals have benefitted. The savings to our community is again, thousands of dollars each month.

After being made aware of the fine Youth Leadership pro-gram operated by the Chamber of Commerce in Lompoc, the decision was made to support the start up of a similar program in Santa Maria. The program is up and running and brings 30 or more high school teens through local offices and agencies to learn more about their commu-nity.

Presently we are looking at the Dolly Parton Imagination Library program. Funds are now being raised to support a monthly book program for each child in our community from the ages of newborn to 5. You all can support this initiative in its start up this year.

Because my message is supposed to be short, there are many projects I have had to leave unmentioned. But as you look through this annual report you will be in awe of all that our UW is doing in Northern Santa Barbara County.

As to my other purpose in this message, my farewell, I want to say congratulations to the staff for all they do to help make a difference in the lives of families and children in our community. To the Board members, I want to offer my heartfelt thank you for your support and direction. And to all the many active volunteers, I salute you for caring about the people in our local areas.

I have enjoyed the last six years serving on the Board of Directors. It has been a satisfying and rewarding experience.

Sincerely,

Rita Madden

OUR MISSION IS TO BUILD STRONGER COMMUNITIES BY PROVIDING OPPORTUNITIES FOR

PEOPLE TO IMPROVE THEIR LIVES.

HELPING CHILDREN, YOUTH AND ADULTS ACHIEVE THEIR POTENTIAL United Way support helps children, youth and adults achieve their poten-tial by promoting school readiness and academic achievement, as well as adult literacy and life skills. Research indicates that children enrolled in quality early education pro-grams are more likely to enter school ready and able to continue learning at an appropriate level. United Way funds provide support for proven effective strategies.

Reading to pre-school children is one of the most important things we can do for them. Going into kindergarten prepared, is the first step to enjoying a quality education and on time graduation. The Imagination Library will provide a brand new, age appropriate book, every month from birth to kindergarten, for every child in our county.

The child’s book will be delivered right to their door each month. The first book that they will receive is The Little Engine That Could and their last book will be Look Out Kinder-garten, Here I Come! Open a book and open a door to a child’s future.

One more child prepared for kindergarten—One more high school graduate succeeding in life.

BORN LEARNING – Helping parents / caregivers

turn everyday activities into learning experiences for children.

It only costs $1 per week to provide a child with a new book every month— and support the Volunteer Literacy Corp working in local neighborhoods.

Achieving greater stability through the Financial Stability Services Partnership allows lower-income working families to move toward financial independence. Even with more than one family bringing in wages, or with one person holding down two or

three jobs, many families are barely getting by, with no opportunity to save for college, home, or retirement.

The United Way goal, in working with partners, is to help individuals and families receive assistance in budgeting and planning. Financial literacy is a key component to the success of our families futures.

Promoting Financial Stability and Independence

30,000 Santa Barbara County

families live on less than $25,000

per year

Volunteer income tax assistance Through coalition grants working with Community Action Commission and Cal Poly University and Allan Hancock College, IRS certified and trained volunteers are able to as-

sist low income individuals by preparing taxes at no charge. Generating revenue for individuals and the local economy through filing tax returns is another example of how United Way is work-ing to advance the com-mon good. In conjunction with provid-ing volunteer income tax

assistance (VITA) sites, United Way partners in the Earned Income Tax Credit Awareness campaign to better serve low-wage workers and create lasting change in the community. The EITC is the largest anti-poverty program in the country, and it lifts millions of people above the poverty line each year. While EITC is not welfare, it does reduce taxes, supplement wages, and provide individuals with an incentive to work.

The EITC is a refundable credit for low income taxpayers who work. The amount of the credit depends on income and fam-ily size. Whatever its amount, the EITC is money that is often used to pay down debt or for other necessities. It can also provide an opportunity to begin asset building activities, such as opening or contributing to a savings account.

The wealth building potential that becomes available with the EITC is a real and tangible move toward self-sufficiency for hard-working people in our community.

However, many indi-viduals are not aware of this opportunity. By of-fering free tax service, United Way decreases the number of people that feel pressured to pay enormous interest rates and rely on refund anticipation loans to have their taxes filed.

Taxpayers are introduced to asset building strategies when they visit the VITA sites.

Prescription Discount Program Your entire family will enjoy the savings up to 65% for each prescription filled and overall savings of up to 40% annually.

The Coast2Coast Rx Card in-cludes two fantastic additional benefits: lab and imaging at sub-stantially discounted prices. These benefits are for uninsureds or underinsureds that don't have the two benefits included in their health plan. NO RESTRICTIONS: Use your card as often as you need, for any

prescription, for everyone in your family. There is no in-come limit, age requirement, eligibility or registration re-quired. HOW YOU CAN HELP: Did you know that more than one out every five people in the United States has no prescrip-tion drug coverage? Please email your friends, family members, co-workers, and members of groups you know a link to this website, place a link to this site on your websites and web pages, and print cards for the people you know that do not have Internet access. Together, we can make a difference, Our Partners include:

Health is strongly linked to education and income: good health allows children to learn better and adults to in-crease their income through productive work. Conversely, health problems often lead to increased school absence (a predictor of dropping out of high school) among children, as well as increased on-the-job absences by adults.

To further compound the problem, entry-level and low-paying jobs are often without health benefits. The lack of healthcare coverage often means that primary care, important to preventing or treating illness before it be-comes serious, is an unattainable luxury. A serious illness without sufficient health insurance has driven thousands of Americans into financial crisis. Indeed, 62.1% of all bankruptcies in 2007 were related to medical bills* and in many cases those bills related to children without health insurance coverage.

WELCOME TO Kids Get Fit!

Studies show obesity rates among children have nearly doubled in the last 10 years. Today's gen-eration of children may be the first in history to have a shorter life span than their parents. But with education and effort, we can reverse this growing epidemic of childhood obesity.

This is not about charity. This is about change. Join Kids Get Fit, and join the movement for a healthier generation of kids. Learn what you can do with your kids to get and keep them healthy. Join United Way and help Kids Get Fit!

Supporting a Human Service Network United Way funding helps sustain the supporting hu-man service network. Through emergency services such as the need for food and clothing, critical sup-port services, and shelter or utility assistance, United Way is working hard to to support the frontline agen-cies and organizations in northern Santa Barbara County. Each year local organizations are supported through designations contributed to United Way work-place campaigns. Workplace campaigns provide an easy payroll deduction option to support local pro-grams and agencies. These campaigns include the cities, county, federal employees and the major cor-porations. To establish a workplace campaign with your company, contact United Way or any of our part-

ner organizations.

Last year United Way and it’s part-ners distributed over $25,000 in needed products directly to the front-

line agencies…. Thanks to companies like UPS, Toy-ota of Santa Maria, Bush’s Automotive, Starbucks, ULA, Church for Life and many more for collecting and distributing diapers, socks, baby formula...

2-1-1 Partnership - every hour of every day, hundreds of people need access to essential human services whether they're looking for training, employment, food pantries, help for an aging parent, addiction prevention, or even ways to participate in volunteering in the local community.

211 is the three digit number to dial for people searching for Health and Human Services information and assis-tance.

Locating such basic resources as food, shelter, employ-ment, health care, or even utility assistance may mean calling dozens of phone numbers, then struggling through a maze of agencies and services to make the right connections. However, by dialing 211, trained vol-unteers can guide people on the best course of action to take by directing them to an agency or service based on his or her individual needs and location with one simple phone call.

Gifts In Kind Santa Maria is a vital link between donors of goods and services and local nonprofit agencies. Gifts In Kind Santa Maria operates as a collaborative program of the Northern Santa Barbara County United Way and Path Point-Santa Maria , Home Depot, Bed Bath & Beyond, Pottery Barn, Office Depot, Gifts in Kind International and many more A wealth of high-quality product and service donations make Gifts In Kind Santa Maria an invaluable resource for qualified non-profit organizations.

Over $800,000 in quality products were col-

lected / distributed thru the Gifts in Kind Part-
