A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT & BOARD CHAIR

William G. Clark Glen A. JeterPresident & CEO Chair, Board of Directors

2 | 2016-2017 Urban League of Rochester Annual Report

Education means emancipation. It means light and liberty. It means the

uplifting of the soul of man into the glorious light of truth, the light by

which men can only be made free.

– Frederick Douglass, 1894

This year, the City of Rochester and numerous cities across the nation

celebrated the 200th birthday of Fredrick Douglass. Douglass was one

of the most influential African American leaders of the 19th century,

known for his work as a fearless abolitionist, author, and orator.

Douglass escaped slavery in 1846 and moved to Rochester, New York

where he lived for 30 years.

Growing up as a slave, Douglass realized that the ability to read was the

key to freedom. Obtaining one’s education remains essential to a

successful and fulfilling life. The Urban League of Rochester’s (ULR)

youth education and development programs help young adults realize

their dreams and plan for their futures through college and career

readiness activities including college trips, business tours, mentoring

services, financial aid workshops, and service learning projects.

This year, our Afterschool Academy provided programming to over 100

students. The Academy gives students a safe place to go where they

can have a hot meal, participate in hands-on activities, receive

homework help, and take trips to local businesses, colleges, and

museums.

Eighty-nine students in ULR’s GEAR UP (Gaining Early Awareness and

Readiness for Undergraduate Program) visited at least one college

campus during the past year. Last April, 23 GEAR UP students

participated in a college readiness trip where they visited six different

universities, including Howard University and Morgan State University.

Finally, our Salute to Black Scholars Program continues to be a staple

program in the Rochester community, honoring 531 new Black

Scholars last June.

ULR not only helps students prepare to achieve post-secondary

success, we also strongly advocate for education systems that are

accountable and equitable. ULR is a member of the New York Equity

Coalition that works with local parents, districts, and policymakers to

create accountability standards that work for all students. William Clark,

President & CEO, also represented ULR on the New York State

commissioned Principal Project Advisory Team to improve the

development of school building leadership.

While it has been over 140 years since Fredrick Douglass lived in

Rochester, his legacy lives on today through organizations like the

Urban League as we remain fervently committed to helping African

Americans, minorities, and others in disadvantaged groups obtain self-

sufficiency.

Thank you for your ongoing support of our efforts to empower the lives

of those in the Rochester community. We look forward to this next year

as we continue to live, learn, and work together.

OUR MISSION

The mission of the Urban League of Rochester is to enable African-

Americans, Latinos, the poor and others in disadvantaged groups to

secure economic self-reliance, parity and power and civil rights.

Our three-pronged strategy for pursuing the mission is:

•Ensuring that our children are well educated and equipped for

economic self-reliance in the 21st century;

home ownership, entrepreneurship and wealth accumulation; and

•Ensuring our civil rights by eradicating all barriers to equal

participation in the economic and social mainstream of America.

WE LIVE TOGETHER

6 | 2016-2017 Urban League of Rochester Annual Report

When Cedric was six years old, he was suffering from severe

seizures. Thankfully, his mother connected with the Urban

League’s Family Care Program, a program that helps

individuals with a qualifying disability live in a family setting

while developing the skills needed to live independently.

For the past fifteen years, Cedric has lived with his Family

Care Provider, Darlene, and her husband, Michael. Cedric

participates in family trips, including a recent trip to Italy.

Darlene and Michael also have a strong, trusting relationship

with Cedric’s mother and brother, who frequently visit. They

have become one big family!

The growth in Cedric is evident. He is now 21 years old, has

graduated high school, and is looking forward to a life of

independence. He no longer suffers from seizures or needs

medication. He currently participates in a work program and

is working towards his goal of living independently. The

program is funded by the New York State Office for People

with Developmental Disabilities. Cedric

WE LEARN TOGETHER

When Gianna enrolled in Project Ready, she was a high school senior who did not have

any post-secondary plans. She dreamt of attending college, but had not submitted any

applications. While Gianna was not sure where she was headed after high school,

Project Ready staff knew she had the potential to succeed. During the final months

before graduation, Gianna and her Project Ready counselor worked diligently to fill out

college applications to put her on a path towards her career goals.

Gianna finished her senior year with a 4.0 grade point average and was recognized as

an Urban League of Rochester Black Scholar in June 2017. Gianna now attends Monroe

Community College for business administration and hospitality management. She wants

to become an event planner after college.

Jovan participated in Project Ready throughout his four years of high school. A young

man full of energy and ambition, Jovan took advantage of every learning opportunity he

could. He was a diligent student, regularly participated in community service events,

and attended Project Ready all while maintaining a part-time job at Wegmans. Project

Ready helped Jovan juggle his activities by teaching him time management and

communication skills.

During his senior year, Jovan maintained a 4.0 GPA and was recognized as an Urban

League of Rochester Black Scholar in June 2017. He now attends the Rochester

Institute of Technology where he is pursuing a degree in hospitality.

The Urban League's Summer of Opportunity Program Think,

Write, Speak: ROC City Future Reporters served 20 students

ages 14 to 15. Over the six week program, participants learned

about the tenets of journalism and the world of work. The

program collaborated with the Rochester Association of Black

Journalists and other organizations to provide workshops that

connected participants with local media professionals.

Participating in the program was an eye-opening experience for

the participants, who got to see that there are professionals

committed to producing quality journalism every day, right here

in Rochester. The program was funded by the City of Rochester.

Thou

When Thou Kongmany started his journey as an entrepreneur,

he faced several roadblocks. Soon after he started his flooring

business, T.K. Flooring, Thou was discouraged by those in his

network who told him that he lacked capital and resources to

succeed. By December 2016, he was ready to quit. However,

with the help of the Urban League’s Business Development

Center staff, family, and mentors, Thou persevered.

Through the Center’s business development workshops, Thou

conducted research on the flooring industry and learned that

there were no minority-owned flooring businesses. He then

worked with the Center to obtain his MBE certificate and

strengthen his business practices.

Since obtaining his MBE certification T.K. Flooring has earned

20 contracts and is on track to earn $1.7 to $2 million revenue

by the end of 2017. The Urban League’s Business Development

Center is funded by Empire State Development, State Farm, and

the Women’s Foundation.
