2011 annual report - Shoes and Clothes for Kids
20 1 1 ANNUAL REPORT shoes and clothes for kids Dear Friends, On behalf of the board of directors, staff and volunteers, thank you for your continued support. We know there are many worthwhile charitable causes deserving of community investment and we are grateful for the support we received in 2011. The board and I continue to work closely with our talented staff to ensure our expenses remain as low as possible, that we continue to focus on our mission of serving Cleveland’s neediest children and that we regularly communicate our progress to our key stakeholders. As I end my three year term as chair, you should know the board is very happy with the direction of the organization, the skill and dedication of the staff towards our mission and the prospects for our future. While we wish the need to help children would diminish, we in fact are preparing for meeting an even greater number of needy children. My successor, Scott Simon, is the perfect choice to lead the organization the next two years and I know you’ll enjoy hearing from him about SC4K activities. I urge you to review the 2011 annual report in detail to learn more about our efforts during the past 12 months. Many thanks for your support of Shoes and Clothes for Kids, Terence J. Uhl Chair Valerie F. McCormack Executive Director 2 2 0 1 1 A n n ua l R e p ort » sc 4 k 96 of children served by SC4K live at 100% poverty. more than new outfits, new outlooks In 1969, local businessman Morrie Sayre noticed children playing in the streets of Cleveland without shoes on their feet and decided to do something about it. He founded Shoes for Kids and started to distribute gently used shoes from the trunk of his car. From this humble beginning, the organization has grown to become Shoes and Clothes for Kids (SC4K), the only non-profit organization in Greater Cleveland providing new shoes and clothes at no charge throughout the year to thousands of children in need. Through a network of 35 Distribution Partners, SC4K positively impacts the lives of area children by giving them the confidence and self-esteem that comes from having something new to wear. SC4K distributes brand new basic clothing items and shoe gift cards that allow families to choose new shoes or boots right off the rack at conveniently located Payless stores. SC4K purchases a majority of its product through a network of wholesalers that sell children’s clothing at deep discounts. Through this program, SC4K is able to purchase between $20.00– $25.00 worth of brand new clothing for every $1.00 spent. In addition to meeting the basic needs of thousands of children each year, SC4K serves as a change agent for families living in poverty. The offering of shoe gift cards and free clothing brings families into our Distribution Partners’ agencies. Once at the agency, the families have access to additional programs and services including food pantries, GED education programs, resale shops, daycare, job training programs and more. For 42 years, SC4K has provided a one-of-a-kind service to families and children in need throughout Greater Cleveland. OUR MISSION CORE VALUES Shoes and Clothes for Kids provides a unique service for income-eligible families in Greater Cleveland by distributing new shoes, clothing, and items for infants and youth. Shoes and Clothes for Kids carries out its mission with compassion, care and respect through a network of partner agencies and offers the community a way to help families in need. lasting legacies In 2011 SC4K distributed close to 2 million dollars worth of new items to 25,000 children in need. As a non-profit organization that charges no fees to its recipients or Distribution Partners, receives no government support, and is not a United Way agency, SC4K relies on the support of a wide variety of donors. This summer, SC4K received two very generous and unexpected gifts, which will help us make a lasting impact in the lives of area children. SC4K founder Morrie Sayre helping a young boy lace his new sneakers. Alice Sayre Alice Sayre, widow of Shoes and Clothes for Kids founder, Morrie Sayre, provided a generous gift of stock to mark the one year anniversary of Morrie’s passing at the age of 95 in July 2010. The sale of this stock resulted in a $25,875.66 gift to SC4K to continue Morrie’s work. Sayre began Shoes for Kids in 1969 upon learning that many children in the Greater Cleveland area lacked adequate footwear. He initially collected used shoes and distributed them directly to the children in need and then later, raised money to purchase new shoes. In 1998, new clothing items were added to the distribution and Shoes for Kids officially became Shoes and Clothes for Kids. Rosemary E. Tatalick In July, SC4K received a $52,750 bequest from the Estate of Rosemary Tatalick. Ms. Tatalick of Rocky River had not previously been a donor of Shoes and Clothes for Kids. However, it was clear from the charities she selected for her estate, that she was passionate about children’s causes. We are humbled to have been among the organizations she chose to carry on her legacy. 4 2 0 1 1 A n n ua l R e p ort » sc 4 k 44 of children in Cuyahoga County live at 100% poverty. addressing the community's needs It is no secret that 2011 was a challenging year. The economy was still sluggish, foreclosure rates and unemployment rates were sky high and 44% of Greater Cleveland’s children were living in poverty. Shoes and Clothes for Kids serves one of the most basic needs of children and as more families continued to face these tough realities, the request for our services significantly increased. It is anticipated that this demand will continue to outpace our supply in 2012. Therefore, SC4K took big steps in 2011 to ensure that we continue to meet the ever-increasing needs of our community in the most economically sound and efficient manner possible while operating with compassion, care and respect. SC4K took big steps in 2011 to ensure that we continue to meet the ever-increasing needs of our community. 2011 Annual numbers 25,000 153 76,270 13,650 2,245 80 SC4K served 25,000 children in need in Greater Cleveland. We distributed 13,650 Payless shoe gift cards with a total redemption value of $136,500. SC4K’s Distribution Partner sites held 153 distributions in 81 communities throughout Greater Cleveland. SC4K’s group volunteers packed 2,245 boxes of brand new clothing, school supplies and other items for distribution to the children of Greater Cleveland. SC4K distributed 76,270 total pieces of new clothing and other items with a total retail value of $1,782,133 to families in need. 80% of families served by SC4K accessed other programs and services at our Distribution Partner’s agencies. 2 0 1 1 A n n ua l R e p ort » sc 4 k Expanding Our Footprint In 2011, SC4K expanded its Distribution Partner network to increase our reach and serve more children and families in need. We officially welcomed four new Distribution Partners: Catholic Charities – Riverside, Euclid/Hillcrest Area Family to Family Collaborative, Famicos Foundation – Ward 10 Office and Word of Righteousness Family Life Center. These new partners began distributing new clothing items and Payless shoe gift cards to their neighborhoods in October. A fifth partner, Catholic Charities – Saint Ignatius, was also selected by the Products and Services Committee. This site began meeting the rising demands of the near Westside in early 2012. New Community Partners SC4K sought additional community partners to collaborate with during our two peak times of need, back to school and the holiday season, to further reach beyond our current footprint. Our annual Stuff the Bus school supply collection drive sponsored by Dominion brought us to the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo and introduced us to a whole new group of supporters. Likewise our annual Gear for Grades partnership with Charter One Bank linked us to the YMCA of Greater Cleveland’s summer camp program. Another partner was the Adoption Network of Cleveland. In December, SC4K applied for and received a donation of 100 $20.00 Payless gift cards as part of the 2011 Payless Gives Shoes 4 Kids Program. SC4K gave the gift cards to children in permanent custody of the Cuyahoga County Department of Children and Family Services, with the help the Adoption Network of Cleveland. Something as simple as a gift card, a new backpack, schools supplies and new clothes can make all the difference in the world to a child in need. It brings them self-esteem and confidence which are necessary for success in school and in life. new undergarments and socks. These are two items that children desperately need and we can always use more. ARAMARK organized our first drive with big results and collected more than 1,200 items! Filling a Critical Need Together, we can continue to Finally, SC4K’s young professional Associate Board doubled its membership and added 16 new members this year so that it might take on some new program related projects. The group created a project team dedicated to organizing, promoting and executing the collection of Clearly, there is still much work to be done in meeting the needs of our community and these are just some of the steps we are taking. However, we know we can’t do it alone and we need your help. Please show us your support by making a financial contribution, volunteering your time, attending one of our special events or by holding a school supply, undergarment or sock collection drive in your business, school, civic organization, or professional or religious groups. make a positive impact on the lives of area children in need. One step at a time. 2011 SC4K Associate Board 5 6 2 0 1 1 A n n ua l R e p ort » sc 4 k 76 of the children served by SC4K are school age children: • 6 to 8: 18% • 9 to 12: 16% • Over 12: 32% L to R: Barbara Marlowe, Keith Kraus, Allan Krulak, Valerie McCormack, Patrick Perotti and Terry Uhl. PRogram news & community partners With a staff of three full-time employees and one part-time employee, SC4K relies heavily on the generosity of our community partners and volunteers to raise funds and awareness of our mission driven work. Ohio Lawyers Give Back New Capabilities Brochure SC4K was presented with a $50,000 check at the Heart & Sole Luncheon from Dworken & Bernstein Co., L.P.A. as part of its “Ohio Lawyers Give Back” program which was founded to promote the use of cy pres in class action settlements. When a class action law suit is settled, the plaintiff and defendant agree to a fund amount to pay all class members. Since many class members have moved, passed-away, or can't be found, millions of settlement dollars go unclaimed. That settlement money is intended to benefit the class, rather than revert to the wrongdoing defendant, so the ancient doctrine of cy pres is now being used to distribute the unclaimed money to charities and non-profits. Dworken & Bernstein has distributed over $20 million to charities from unclaimed class action settlements and SC4K is truly grateful to have been included among its recipients. Our good friends at Melamed Riley Advertising donated their time and talent to give the SC4K capabilities brochure a fresh new look which features photos of actual SC4K recipients and contains information about how the community can help support our mission. The brochure was printed pro bono by Consolidated Graphics. These types of donations help keep our costs low so that 92 cents of each dollar we raise directly benefits the children we serve! SC4K Families Enjoyed Thanksgiving Dinner at the Terrace Club For the second year, individuals and families from SC4K’s Distribution Partner network were invited to participate in the “Indians Week of Caring” where they received a Thanksgiving feast compliments of the Cleveland Indians and Delaware North Companies. Guests were invited to the Terrace Club to receive a warm, hearty meal with the opportunity to spend Thanksgiving with their loved ones in a safe environment. The meal was served by members of the Cleveland Indians and Delaware North Companies front office executives. We Moved! Our strategic plan mandated that SC4K move its staff offices to co-locate with another area non-profit to share services and create synergies. In June, SC4K moved to 3311 Perkins, Suite 205 to share a floor with the Greater Cleveland Neighborhood Centers Association. More than onethird of SC4K’s Distribution Partners are GCNA’s members and we also share several board members, volunteers and donors. In addition to providing the staff with a clean eco-friendly space, the move resulted in several operational cost-savings for both organizations. SC4K’s warehouse still remains at the Cleveland Metropolitan School District’s Woodland Data Center. Plain Dealer Holiday Spirit SC4K was one of 20 agencies selected as a recipient of The Plain Dealer Charities 2011 Holiday Spirit Campaign. SC4K received a grant of $12,000 along with coverage in The Plain Dealer. During the campaign, The Plain Dealer featured articles on the agencies and sought contributions from readers to fund the grants it distributed. The campaign’s kick-off article by Margaret Bernstein ran on the front page of the paper on Thanksgiving Day and featured a SC4K recipient. SC4K and another recipient family’s story were also featured in an article on December 21. SC4K was honored to receive the donation and media coverage. Hyland Employees Donate 1,200+ Pairs of New Shoes Hyland Software employees collected more than 1,200 pairs of new shoes and boots for SC4K at their holiday party. For the sixth year, Hyland asked its employees to bring a new pair of children’s shoes as an “entrance fee” to be donated to local children in need through SC4K. The program is so popular that several employees often bring not only one, but sometimes two or three pairs of new shoes. 8 2 0 1 1 A n n ua l R e p ort » sc 4 k L to R: Scott Simon, Susan O’Donnell Mikhail, and Jeff Kavlick 2011 special events Thanks to the hard work and generosity of SC4K's volunteers and supporters, our special events exceeded our expectations in 2011, making a sizeable difference in the lives of area children and families in need.

Back to school season is the busiest and most important time of the year for our organization.

The partnership was a huge success! More than 9,000 people attended the event and the bus was located on the Zoo’s ticket plaza giving SC4K much visibility. Several companies either ran collection drives in their offices or asked their employees to bring their items directly to the bus and many event goers made cash donations. 4th Annual Cleveland Browns Back to School Campaign The Cleveland Browns once again provided a $15,000 sponsorship to SC4K which was used to purchase double the amount of gift cards for our back to school distribution.
