Introducing: Our New Development Team
Martha Warford, Executive Director
Beverly Farm has a new development
team of staff that will be working with us
to help increase our development efforts.
The new staff have brought with them a
renewed energy and excitement to
Beverly Farm’s development program.
Tina Steibel, Director of Development
comes to us with education, experience,
and charisma. Tina has a Masters of
Social Work degree. She is an excellent
communicator and has the qualities to
build meaningful relationships with our
corporate partners and friends. She has
an infectious smile that will make you
feel very welcome and comfortable.
Taylor Gibbs is our new Development
Coordinator. Taylor has a BA in Public
Relations and has experience with
marketing and communication. She has
jumped right in with developing new
volunteer opportunities and managing
our donor data base. If your company
promotes employee volunteerism please
keep us in mind. She also has a great
smile and a very outgoing communication style that is valuable in developing
relationships.
Tina and Taylor are great additions to
our management team at Beverly Farm.
Both value the importance of helping
people and believing in our mission. Both
have the education and experience to
guide and strengthen our development
program.
Please take the time to contact either
member of our new development team
to schedule a time to meet them and to
discuss employee volunteerism or
corporate giving strategies. It is with you,
our faithful business partners, that we will
succeed in 2016 and beyond.

Sponsorship opportunities are available and there are many ways to participate. For more information please contact Tina
Steibel at (618) 466-0367 ext. 628 or [email protected]. We hope to see you there!
We’ve made up our list and
checked it twice. No one’s
been naughty, they’ve all
been nice!
The holidays are right around the corner and we’re asking your help to make
sure that our residents have a magical Christmas by participating in our Giving
Tree program.
You and your co-workers can share your generosity by collecting items for
Beverly Farm individuals for holiday gifts.
We are asking for items such as art supplies, DVDs, coloring books, lotions,
scarves, gloves, gift cards to restaurants or places like Walmart or Target, just to
name a few. Another way to help out is by “adopting” a resident’s wish list.
If you are interested in supporting Beverly Farm’s Giving Tree program please
contact Ena Turkic at (618) 466-0367 ext. 715 or at [email protected].
Holiday Open House
Kick off the most wonderful time
of the year at the Holiday Open
House at the Shops at Beverly
Farm on Saturday, November 21st
from 8am - 4pm. There will be door
prizes, coffee, yummy treats, lots
of holiday items, gifts, and floral displays to view and purchase! Besides
all the wonderful holiday items and
floral displays, attendees can choose
an ornament from Beverly Farm’s
Giving Tree to “adopt” a resident’s
wish list.
Beverly Farm thanks Calvary Baptist Church for the
“Best Night Ever”
On a beautiful autumn evening, close to fifty
individuals from Beverly Farm and the surrounding
community put on their best formal attire and set out
in limousines to an event that created memories that
will last a lifetime.
The “Best Night Ever” event was hosted by the
Calvary Baptist Church in Alton, IL and was designed
as a formal dance and reception for individuals with
developmental disabilities. The guests enjoyed a buffet
of delicious food, wonderful music, dancing, friends, a
photo booth, and so much more.
Over fifty members of the staff and congregation from
Calvary attended this event, so each guest would have
their own personal companion for the evening, who
could show them around and introduce them to other
members of the community.
We at Beverly Farm express our gratitude for the
opportunity to become one of your community
partners and creating such genuine happiness for the
individuals we serve. We strive to become involved
with more community organizations and groups in the
2016 year and would love to speak with businesses and
organizations from our surrounding community.
If you, your business, or organization would like to
partner with Beverly Farm for DT contract work, sweets
for your holiday party, or any events, please contact
Cody Hinkle at [email protected] or
618-466-0367 extension 681.
