What Participants Have
to Say about FSW:
“
“Fathers Count made me take a look at myself. It helped me to get
back to what I needed to do as a father, which is being responsible,
being stable and learning how to deal with life on life’s terms.”
– Fathers Count participant Larry Watts
“I was worried that adoption would be daunting and difficult. Mia
Diamond Padwa and her staff at FSW made the process work
beautifully for me and for the young birth mother. We both felt that all
our logistical and emotional concerns were addressed and that we
could embark on our open adoption feeling confident that everything
would go well.”
– Stephanie Reice, adoptive mother, with her daughter
“Many students at Port Chester High School deal with major life
challenges like the impact of grinding poverty and immigration issues
on their lives and their families’ lives. Social workers from FSW do a
remarkable job helping our students find ways to handle these issues
and be resilient so teens can become their best selves personally,
socially and academically.”
– Andrea Davis, Social Worker at Port Chester High School
“Respite helped my son so much. He learned to share, try new things,
interact with others and see that it was OK to be away from Mommy
and Daddy. The staff was remarkable and so dedicated. They would
talk with him and listen and calm him down when necessary and coax
him to experience new things. It’s great that FSW has this program for
the children who really need it.”
– Carol O’Connor, a recent Respite parent
“Zhane’s Big Sister Debbie has made such a deep impact on her life.
Zhane has a hopeful attitude about life and her goals. Her Big Sister has
shown her how important it is to look outside of yourself, so now Zhane
is volunteering at a food pantry and working with the homeless. I am so
grateful for this program. And now, all three of my children have Bigs!”
– Gwen Edwards, BBBS parent

For 57 years, FSW has stayed true to its mission: to make
a difference right here at home. Today, FSW has seven family
centers across Westchester County and an annual budget of
$21 million. Our 50 programs reach more than 30,000 people a
year and run the gamut from adoption to home health care, from
youth residences to AmeriCorps, from Head Start to Big
Brothers Big Sisters. Our 500 employees and 350 volunteers
work with all segments of the community in all geographic
corners of Westchester. Children, teens, adults, families, older
adults, Latino immigrants and families affected by HIV/AIDS all
benefit from FSW’s programs.
Thank you for taking the time to learn about our mission and
our programs.

UPDATE FROM SUSAN B. WAYNE, PRESIDENT AND CEO
HIGHLIGHTS OF 2011-2012
he 2011-2012 fiscal year was an exciting time for FSW. We embarked on a major
capital campaign and site-creation project, secured several important federal and
foundation grants and launched a Veteran’s Outreach program that will potentially
reach many veterans in Westchester. We reaped the benefits of an improving economy
and were able to maintain and even expand several programs to meet growing needs.
I am enormously proud of our 500 employees, 350 volunteers, our outstanding Board of
Directors and our nascent Junior Board. I am also so grateful for the loyal support of our
generous donors and friends. With the help of supporters and staff, we were able to
accomplish many goals in 2011-2012. Here are just a few of the highlights:
T
FSW Embarks on Campaign to Create The Center for All Ages in White Plains:
In may 2012, FSW embarked on the single most ambitious and exciting site-creation
project in the non-profit’s nearly 60-year history. The Lanza Family Foundation
offered FSW a $1,000,000 Challenge Grant to create The Center for All Ages in
White plains, a multigenerational facility that will house an adult day program with
caregiver support, Head Start/Early Head Start, recreation for special needs youth,
Big Brothers Big Sisters activities as well as after-school and summer programs
for youth and teens. Housed in a specially designed building, the Center will replicate
and expand some of the services provided by FSW’s award-winning My Second
Home intergenerational community in mount Kisco. The matching gifts campaign
extends through June 2013.
Harvard Alumni Group Offers Pro Bono Strategic Planning to FSW: Community
Partners, an initiative of the Harvard Business School Club of New York, provides
free consulting services to non-profits and other organizations throughout the new
york City metropolitan area. During the spring of 2012, five members of this group, all Westchester residents,
spent four months doing research, conducting 50 interviews, analyzing the information and compiling their strategic planning recommendations in a report they delivered to the agency’s Board of Directors. The Harvard team
made suggestions concerning infrastructure, programs, board development, fundraising and the agency’s
ambitious new project, The Center for All Ages.
FSW Launches a Veterans Outreach Program to Serve the County’s 40,000
Vets: In January, FSW launched its Veterans Outreach Program with the hiring
of Director Joshua gaccione, a four-year Army vet who served as a paratrooper
in both Afghanistan and Iraq. The program focuses on the re-integration of service
members who were deployed in Iraq or Afghanistan back into the Westchester
community. Veterans Outreach serves families, before, during and after deployment. One of the program’s earliest accomplishments was the creation of The
Westchester Veterans Service Providers Network, which meets quarterly and
includes more than 50 service providers. FSW’s new program also offers direct
services to veterans through individual and family counseling, peer-to-peer
discussions, veteran-civilian dialogues, focus groups and referrals to resources.
Big Brothers Big Sisters Offers Free Home Pickup of Clothing: FSW restarted
free home pickup of clothing, housewares, small appliances and toys through its
Big Brothers Big Sisters program. From pelham to peekskill, Bronxville to
Buchanan, the Big Brothers Big Sisters trucks travel throughout the county for
scheduled pickups in 24 zones that cover 61 towns. residents can call the tollfree number 1-877-399-2570 to arrange a free home pickup of donated household
items. Or they can go online to www.bbbsdonate.org to schedule a pickup.

Fathers Count Wins a $544,000 Grant from the U.S. Department
of Health and Human Services: FSW began administering its
Fathers Count program in 2006, and in 2011, the program was one
of 120 grantees chosen by the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services to promote healthy marriage and responsible
fatherhood. This $544,000 grant enables Fathers Count to serve a
targeted population of 125 fathers annually over the course of three
years. These men include fathers who are about to be released from
incarceration, on probation supervision, or in child support arrears.
Fathers Count uses a Responsible Fatherhood curriculum to teach
parenting, healthy relationships and financial literacy skills in a series
of ten two-hour workshops.
Brandon Steiner Spearheads Renovation of the Evelyn Sachs Steiner Home for
Girls: FSW Board member Brandon Steiner, CeO of Steiner Sports marketing, held
a charity event and raised $275,000 for the renovation of FSW’s Girls’ Residence.
Contractors donated their time to make these improvements in the White plains home:
modernized the kitchen; replaced all siding and roofing; refurbished all bedrooms; overhauled two bathrooms; updated the foyer and office; provided new landscaping and
renovated the front porch. The residence, which has been renamed in honor of Brandon’s
mother, is home to eight adolescent girls, all of whom have experienced emotional
trauma or abuse. previously, Steiner spearheaded a $250,000 renovation of the Boys’
Residence, which was renamed the Jerome Wagner Youth Residence in honor of
the late father of Steiner’s wife, mara.
RideConnect Provides Transportation for 115 Older Adults a Month: When RideConnect launched in January 2012, the transportation referral program for older adults
in Northern Westchester was helping about 30 older adults find taxis or community vans
to take them shopping, to the bank, the doctor or the hairdresser. now with a coordinated
volunteer driving program that includes 20 drivers, the program is helping 115 older adults
find rides every month. Funded by the New Freedom program, rideConnect has a call
center and a website which older adults can use to find out about transportation options.
This initiative aligns with the goals of Livable Communities, a program funded by the
Westchester County Department of Senior Programs and Services.
FSW Junior Board Awards $7,500 in Grants to Youth Programs: A group of emotionally challenged adolescent
males are treated to a weekend trip to Washington, DC. Seven children with serious mental disorders enrolled
in our Social Stars After School Program enjoy field trips to the Bronx Zoo, new york Aquarium and the new
york Hall of Science. These and other enrichment activities were funded by grants from FSW’s Junior Board,
a group of dedicated volunteers who support the Board of Directors and promote the mission of FSW through educational,
fundraising and service initiatives. During its inaugural year, the
Junior Board raised more than $20,000 for a Youth Enrichment
Fund, which provides supplemental funding to FSW’s youth programs. In the first half of 2012 the Junior Board awarded $7,500
in grants to fund seven different projects.
We pursued these accomplishments to achieve positive outcomes for families, children, youth and seniors throughout our
county. We are optimistic that, with your help, we will continue to
significantly impact the quality of life in our community.
With much gratitude.

HAPPENINGS
Tony Lembeck and his family were the honorees at this year’s STAR Gala, which celebrated programs that Help
Families Transcend Challenges, including Camp Viva, a one-week sleepaway camp for families affected by HIV/AIDS
that Tony helped found 18 years ago. Swiss Re was the corporate honoree.
Eagle Scout Jeffrey Bosmediano recruited 43 other Eagle Scouts
to help him collect 200 holiday toys for Head Start, which was his
“preschool alma mater.”
Members of three churches and one synagogue in Pelham banded together to create 300 Thanksgiving boxes for
needy families working with FSW. Participating congregations included Huguenot Memorial Church, Our Lady of
Perpetual Help (OLPH), St. Catherine’s Rectory and The Pelham Jewish Center.
FSW received the Community Partner Award from the Junior
League of Central Westchester at the group’s 65th Anniversary
Gala. Susan B. Wayne, left, President and CEO of FSW, emcee
Brian Conybeare and Lynn Marvin, President of the JLCW,
celebrated at the event.
200 teens attended the 27th Youth Action Convention at Pace University in Pleasantville, which was orchestrated by
FSW’s Westchester County Youth Councils. In their student leadership roles, Youth Council members have
created a community garden, taught workshops, served food at a soup kitchen and have advocated for peers in Albany and White Plains.

Meridith Alin, Marcy Berman-Goldstein and Leslie Chang were among the 75 guests who attended a
springtime wine-tasting held by FSW’s Junior Board. Proceeds from the event at Tarry Wine
Merchants were used to help the Junior Board offer supplemental grants to FSW’s youth programs.
FSW’s Sharing Shelf filled 232 backpacks with school supplies for needy elementary and middle school children throughout the county. Twenty volunteers worked
alongside Deborah Blatt, founder and volunteer coordinator of The Sharing Shelf.
FSW’s Sharing Shelf moved to a new Port Chester warehouse location this year
and now provides clothing to 150 children a month through more than 20 social
service agencies.
Approximately 120 PepsiCo employees participated in the “Bowl for Kids Sake”
fundraising bowl-a-thon. The event generated $30,000 for FSW’s Big
Brothers Big Sisters program.
Nearly 160 guests attended a festive fundraising dinner, “La Dolce Vita,” which raised $70,000 for FSW’s
My Second Home, an award-winning intergenerational adult day program in Mount Kisco. Co-chairs
Steve and Christy Ruvituso were delighted that the event will enable more older adults with Alzheimer’s
and other challenges to benefit from My Second Home’s innovative approach.

PHILANTHROPY IN ACTION
While federal, state and local governments provide funding for many FSW
programs, social service budgets are being reduced resulting in cuts to vital
programs. Consequently, funds provided by private philanthropy – corporate and
private foundations – are increasingly important as FSW strives to meet the
growing needs of our community. Here are five examples of philanthropy in Action:
Filling in the Service Gaps for Older Teens and Young Adults
When adolescents age out of foster care or residential living, they are often not
ready to live independent lives. grants from New York Life Foundation, The
Marion E. Kenworthy-Sarah H. Swift Foundation, and the Viola W. Bernard
Foundation help FSW support these adolescents through a three-pronged
umbrella program called Launching Pad.
Launching pad provides counseling services for youth and their families to ease the transition out of group
residences, foster care and mental health support programs. It also offers a twice weekly support group for
young adults who have received mental health services, and a Special Assistance Fund to enable youth to
take advantage of opportunities that help them succeed in life. This fund covers fees for SAT/ACT college prep
courses; geD courses and tutoring; appropriate clothing for job/college interviews; and transportation costs for
work or education-related travel. “We are so grateful to these foundations for helping FSW create Launching
pad,” notes CeO Susan Wayne. “We know this is a successful model, and we are already seeing real benefits
for the young adults in this program.”
Providing Exercise and Healthy Nutrition to Young Children and Their Families
Over the past three decades, the childhood obesity rate for preschool children has more than doubled. Fortyfive percent of the 194 Head Start children served by FSW are considered obese. FSW also serves 40 toddlers
from low-income families in Early Head Start and another 180 children in its Universal Pre-K program. In may
2012, Dannon awarded a $30,000 Next Generation Nutrition Grant to FSW to implement a Healthy Lifestyle
program that serves all these young children. yoga and Zumba classes are offered to the preschoolers, evening
nutrition workshops are presented to parents and caregivers, and family field trips to a local supermarket are
led by a retail dietician. Darlene glasel, Senior Director of FSW’s early Childhood programs, comments, “Like
Dannon, we want to promote healthy lifestyles and reduce childhood obesity. This grant is enabling FSW to
take proactive steps to encourage our families to eat right and exercise every day.”

Helping Incarcerated Parents Rejoin Their Families,
Develop Financial and Job-Readiness Skills
Since 2006, FSW has been running Fathers Count, a federally
funded initiative promoting responsible fatherhood and economic
stability for fathers who have been involved in the Westchester
County or New York State Criminal Justice System. The Sills
Family Foundation and the Wyman Foundation have provided
supplemental grants to support a family component to Fathers
Count, so that children and spouses of fathers being released from prison can attend educational workshops
and enrichment activities to further the family’s bonding. EMERGE, a parenting education program for
incarcerated women that prepares them for re-entry into the community, also received a supplemental grant
from The Sills Family Foundation. This initiative enables program administrators to provide education and
job-readiness training to the mothers being released from prison. “eighty percent of children of incarcerated
parents will have some involvement with the criminal justice system, so Fathers Count and emerge are critical
to breaking that cycle,” notes marissa malett, Director of Criminal Justice Services for FSW.
Scholarships Enrich Futures for Adolescent Girls and Boys in Youth Residences
FSW established two Youth Residences in 1974, one for eight boys
ages 13 to 21, the other for eight girls the same age. Life can be
challenging for these teenagers, all of whom for emotional or safety
reasons, cannot remain in their own homes. These adolescents
received some great news in 2011 when The Fridolin Charitable
Trust gave the current and future youth in these residences a
$100,000 grant to establish a Scholarship Fund, which will provide
internships, college scholarships, and specialized training opportunities
for youth in the homes who demonstrate promise. An enrichment
portion of the grant will enable the teens to attend educational trips
and attend cultural and athletic events. “The teens in our Youth
Residences will now have greater access to life-expanding experiences through this funding,” says Lynn green, Vice president of
Development for FSW. “This grant encourages teens to meet their
potential and gives them the confidence to pursue their dreams.”
ADAPT Helps Parents and Teens Resolve Conflicts
FSW created the ADAPT (A Different Approach for parents and Teens) program
in 1985, in partnership with the Westchester Family Courts to divert children
who are at risk for incarceration from the Juvenile Justice System. The
program has been highly successful in reducing truancy and school suspensions, raising students’ grades and decreasing conflict in the home. ADApT
has been so successful, in fact, 90 percent of the teens and families who are
referred to the program through Child Protective Services will be diverted
from pInS (persons in need of Supervision). grants from the Westchester
Community Foundation and St. Faith’s House Foundation allow ADApT to
continue in the villages of Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow, where 43 percent of
the student population is eligible for free and reduced lunch and many parents
struggle with literacy. “ADApT mediators help parents and children resolve
conflicts and improve communications,” notes Kathy Howard, Clinic Director,
Family Mental Health in Sleepy Hollow. “It is a model program for intervention
that encourages students to stay in school and work harder.”

MILLER’S TOYS:
Why We Partner With FSW
miller’s Toys got its start in 1908 when Joseph miller
founded a bicycle and baby carriage store in Harlem. In
1948, Joseph’s son Irving opened miller’s in mamaroneck.
Two generations later, Brooke (Irving’s granddaughter) and
her husband Taka Andrews, run the family business and
take their responsibility of “giving back to the community”
very seriously. “We are deeply indebted to the community
that has supported our store through three generations of
miller families, almost 65 years of our neighbors buying
toys, bikes and furniture from our store,” says Taka.
Taka and Brooke started partnering with FSW about six
years ago when the store was reducing its inventory of
children’s furniture and the young couple gave some of
these items to FSW’s Head Start classrooms. Soon the
store was supplying clothing, supplies and toys to children
in FSW’s more than 20 youth programs. A few years ago,
the 20,000-foot-store and warehouse became a drop-off
location for donations to The Sharing Shelf, an FSW
program that distributes gently used clothing and baby
goods to needy Westchester families through social workers and other partnering organizations. “We find that a lot
of our customers want to help neighbors in need, and
we are in a good position to help them find the best
organizations to support,” notes Taka.
UPDATE:
When Hurricane Sandy devastated the rockaways,
miller’s and The Sharing Shelf partnered to collect winter
jackets, boots, hats and diapers for the children living
there. “We sent out an email to about 3,500 clients on our
customer loyalty list and asked for donations,” says Taka.
“There was an outpouring of support from our customers,
and The Sharing Shelf was able to take two large truckloads of clothing and diapers to the rockaways, ” explains
Taka. “We were happy to be the conduit for this community
outreach.”

We Support FSW
Les and Sybil rosenberg believe in philanthropy and like to focus their giving locally. “It
is so important to give back to the community you live in,” notes Les. “Sybil and I were
both born and raised in the new york City area, and we don’t have any plans to leave
as we approach our golden age.” In addition to giving to their local synagogue and other
interests, the rosenbergs started giving to FSW in 2011 when they learned about the
non-profit from two of its employees. When grants Coordinator Donna Weissman told
the rosenbergs about FSW’s ambitious new multigenerational project The Center for
All Ages, they were intrigued. The couple visited FSW’s intergenerational program My
Second Home in mount Kisco and were hooked. “The adults were happy and the
children were enjoying themselves too, so we just got such a good feeling about the
program,” notes Sybil. “It clearly works for both groups,” added Les, who said he gets
emotional when he thinks about his visit, perhaps because he and Sybil do not have
any children. “For many of the seniors, my Second Home gives them a reason to live,”
adds Les. “you have to wonder, who is mentoring whom?”
The rosenbergs chose to underwrite the $35,000 cost of the playground at FSW’s new
Center for All Ages, which is slated to open in 2014. “We hope the playground will be
used a lot,” says Sybil. “We will definitely be there when they dedicate the playground
in White plains,” adds Les. “In fact, we can’t wait!”
