HELPING PEOPLE HELP THEMSELVES Winter 2009 Your Generosity is Helping Local Seniors “Seniors would be in serious trouble without ACCESS,” stated Bonnie, a 73-year-old retired nurse and college teacher. “No one is going to pantries to take advantage or for freebies; we go there to survive. If ACCESS wasn’t there, we wouldn’t eat!” This is the plight of many of our seniors in the Rogue Valley. With the down-turn in the economy, ACCESS is seeing an increasing number of seniors who need our services. “The problem is, my income doesn’t go up much and groceries are going up twice as fast,” said Bonnie. “I try to take stock of what I need at the beginning of the month when my Social Security and annuity checks come in. I buy as much as I can for the month. If an emergency comes up, I borrow from neighbors, or I just plain do without.” Bonnie receives $14 in food stamps, an increase of $4 in the past month. “Go to the store and see what that buys you!” Bonnie explained. “I get a loaf of bread, a half in this issue: • Senior Trends Today • Message From Our Director • Qwest Hears Us Now • Senior Fair Breaks Record • Upcoming Calendar Events gallon of milk, and a box of cereal. That doesn’t leave anything for Bonnie, a local senior who’s turned to ACCESS for assistance fresh produce or meat; it is a later, her mother was in and out of treat when we get it at the pantry.

Greg Walden Message from the Executive Director “…my life belongs to the community, and as long as I live it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can.” — George Bernard Shaw It is our privilege to serve those in need, and thanks to your wonderful generosity during the past months we were able to serve our community. Though not all needs were met because of a struggling economy, we are still thankful for a great response, including 365 first-time gifts during the holiday season. We are also thankful for our many partners, including The Salvation Army, St. Vincent de Paul and so many others. Holiday donations are vital, and are a reminder of the continuing need throughout the year. ACCESS assists one in four Jackson County residents 365 days a year. In the past six months, we’ve seen a 17 percent increases in food boxes served; and over the past year, a 58 percent increase in requests for emergency rental assistance and 27 percent increase in energy assistance requests. Senior residents are also in need, including Bonnie, who we’re highlighting in this edition. Bonnie is a 73-year-old senior with living expenses exceeding her fixed income. She’s turned to ACCESS simply to help make ends meet and survive. Thankfully, there are extraordinary volunteers like Jan Bingham, who was recognized for her efforts at the Gold Hill food pantry, 1 of 19 ACCESS food pantries serving Jackson County, with Qwest’s Community Champion Award. Because of her dedication, the pantry will receive a $5,000 grant on her behalf. Again, thank you for rising to meet our community’s needs. We urge you to continue reaching out to our neighbors throughout the year. Warm regards, Gary Meet the Board Julie Brown General Manager Rogue Valley Transit District Julie Brown has joined the ACCESS Inc. Board of Directors, as of December 2008. She is currently employed as the Rogue Valley Transportation District General Manager. Julie hopes her leadership, belief in serving people in the community, and ability to build partnerships with other organizations will be an important asset to ACCESS and the clients it serves. Ms. Brown has worked at RVTD for 14 years and was named general manager in 2007. She has served on numerous local boards and committees, including board member for the Advocates for the Developmentally Disabled, ARC of Jackson County, in-house chair for United Way Campaign, and board member of the Oregon Transit Association. “I believe that people can make a change in their community and that the change starts with oneself,” Brown said. “I personally volunteer many hours within my community and know that without organizations like ACCESS, our community would be unlivable.” All of us at ACCESS look forward to Julie’s leadership and how she will help the clients we serve. Qwest Honors Jan for her work at an ACCESS Pantry On October 23, 2008, out a buffet for her coJan Bingham won the workers at Qwest who Qwest’s Community in turn pay her for her Champion Award for her exquisite lunches.

It was perfect timing! We figure that with what Jan won the award by spending every Sunday making dinner not only for her husband, but for her fellow co-workers as well. Then, four or five days a week, she sets John Watt President, JWA John Watt & Associates John Watt is a native Oregonian, born and raised in Lebanon, Oregon.

ACCESS appreciates John’s commitment to our mission. JA Bowl-a-Thon Call ACCESS Junior Achievement today to sign up a team for the 2009 “Kids On A Roll With JA” Bowl-aThon fundraiser. This fun annual event will be held Saturday, April 18 at Lava Lanes in Medford. Record breaking Success! The 19th annual ACCESS Senior Fair took place on Tuesday, March 3rd at the Medford Armory, and by all accounts it was a resounding success. It was a record-breaking event in all major areas, which included a record 84 vendors and over 5,000 attendees for the day. The Senior Fair is the region’s largest one-day event just for seniors in the Rogue Valley and has now drawn the attention of some businesses outside our region. This year we featured vendors from Portland, Salem, Eugene, and Bend. Don’t let the name fool you, this event is for all ages, but the seniors who attended are the heart and soul of the event. They found quality information on all kinds of subjects that ranged from retirement finances to how to stay in shape using one of the latest video games. Our main title sponsor this year was Medical Eye Center, which gave away thousands of free samples of eye drops, vitamins for eye health, and free eye screenings throughout the day. Of course the day would not have been complete without the traditional Free Bingo, with the celebrity bingo callers from News Watch 12. We are sure that without their support the fair would not have been as much fun or busy. The Fair has been and will be one the Rogue Valley’s best sources of information and products that seniors need to improve their lives. It raises awareness of senior issues and helps solve those problems by services that ACCESS and the other non-profits offer that were at the fair. Please mark your calendars and look forward to next year’s 20th anniversary edition—we are planning it to be even bigger and better. Generosity Helping Seniors (continued on page 4) less than $1,000 a month. Without your generosity and commitment to ACCESS, we would not be able to help seniors like Bonnie. We thank each and every one of you for your support and commitment to Helping us Help Others. ACCESS was able to help Bonnie by signing her up at one of our 19 food pantries, where she receives a box of food each month. Through Fresh Alliance, (a food recovery program), we are able to distribute a limited amount of meat and fresh vegetables to our pantry clients. Bonnie also receives a Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) box once a month, which is a federal program for low-income seniors, which provides nutrient rich foods like peanut butter, cheese, and juice. When Bonnie had surgery, ACCESS was able to provide the needed medical equipment through our Medical Loan Equipment Department.
