Cheryl Doherty Chief Executive Officer Shawn Cornett Chairperson of the Board of Directors 2 Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary • Annual Report 2012 Superhero Strength Helping someone lift themselves out of darkness means never giving up on them As far as Sam is concerned, the people who helped her through some dark times are superheroes. Sam’s already difficult life was catapulted into turmoil when her father died in 2006. Her mother expected her to get a full-time job to cover the bills her father used to pay. Sam was bullied at school and when she told her mom about it, her mother blamed Sam. Just before she turned 17, Sam turned to drugs and drinking to make the pain go away. She completely stopped going to school. Eventually, she tried school again and one day finally broke down and told someone at school what she was going through. That’s when she was referred to Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary. “I was really excited but didn’t want to get my hopes up because I didn’t think it would go anywhere,” said Sam, adding she was used to disappointment in her life. She thought when they heard her story they’d tell her that she was not trying hard enough. “They totally didn’t say that and actually helped me,” said Sam. Within a month of contacting BGCC, Sam was offered a spot at one of the agency’s youth housing programs called Haven’s Way. Haven’s Way provides young women, who cannot live at home, with a safe place to complete their education, establish a positive work history and become self-reliant. Part of the program is also to gain skills to be able to live on their own and build positive relationships. The staff at Haven’s Way and other programs at BGCC helped Sam navigate her way to a better life. Three years later, Sam is preparing to move into her very own apartment. She is clean and sober. She finished her education and went on to post-secondary studies and is now an administrative assistant. “Everyone at Boys and Girls Clubs is a superhero because they consistently go out of their way to help youth, no matter what,” said Sam. It was that strong support that helped her become who she is today. “You are not alone. You feel alone but all you have to do is just ask for help and someone from BGCC will be there.” Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary • Annual Report 2012 3 Strength in numbers The generosity shown by The Glencoe Club is due to its strong membership and outstanding employees. President Cliff Johnson says he is both amazed by and proud of The Glencoe Club’s staff and membership, which is some 12,000 people strong. Members and staff at the club live and breathe its mission statement: Creating extraordinary experiences for the communities we serve. “Community is a big part of a club like this,” says Cliff. “It’s important we look beyond our own personal lives to the impact we have, or can have, within the community we are part of.” For the past three years, The Glencoe Club has definitely been creating extraordinary experiences for the children and youth at Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary (BGCC). Project Angel has been a fundraiser organized by The Glencoe Club for the past 20 years as a way to give back to the community. The event happens every Christmas season where club members donate needed items to charities. For the past three years, BGCC’s Avenue 15 Youth Homeless Shelter has felt the outpouring 4 Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary • Annual Report 2012 of generosity by The Glencoe Club members. Avenue 15 is located within a few blocks of The Glencoe Club’s neighborhood, which makes giving feel close to home. “The event is very large and successful which is indicative of our membership,” said Cliff. With a strong membership leading the success, Cliff said their generosity is supported by a great employee team. “The staff take these types of projects on and are very generous in effort and in spirit,” said Cliff. “I’m amazed by the staff. They are so positive and engaged.” This is very clear at the annual Splash of Red fundraising gala hosted by The Glencoe Club. For the past four years, this partnership has raised much-needed funds for Calgary’s vulnerable youth. The event provides a gala evening, full of entertainment and fine food which is organized flawlessly by the Splash of Red committee, of which some members are from The Glencoe Club. At the end of each event, members can be assured their dollars and efforts have helped children and youth in Calgary - much of which wouldn’t happen if not for The Glencoe Club. $22,000 In 2012, approximately $22,000 worth of items were donated from The Glencoe Club’s Project Angel for our Avenue 15 Youth Homeless Shelter. $25,000 The Glencoe Club donates approximately $25,000 each year for the Splash of Red fundraiser, in the form of venue and services. $1,086,233 Since 2009, the Splash of Red gala at The Glencoe Club has raised over $1.08 million for children and youth of Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary. Decades of support Rob Solinger is proof that children learn habits from their parents. Growing up in Calgary, volunteering was an important part of family life in the Solinger household. Rob was first introduced to Boys and Girls Clubs when he started as a volunteer treasurer for the Edmonton club. When his work transferred him to Calgary he continued his volunteer efforts with the Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary (BGCC) Board of Directors. “Volunteering and giving back was something I saw my parents do, it was part of my family.” Since 1987, Rob has been a Leadership Volunteer with Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary. For a quarter of a century now, Rob has lent his financial expertise to Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary to make a difference in the lives of children across the city. He has shared his financial expertise as Board Treasurer, and BGCC Foundation Board Member, his leadership expertise as Board Chair, and his fundraising skills and contacts as a Capital Campaign Cabinet Member. “There is a responsibility to give back to the community you live in to leave it a better place for future generations.” Rob is always willing to help, to recruit his friends as volunteers and donors, to bring his own children to volunteer, to lead meetings or contribute ideas, and to support his fellow leadership volunteers. “I’m definitely a better person for having been involved with Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary for the past 25 years,” says the father of five and grandfather of one. “It allowed me to develop some leadership skills and it’s also taught me to appreciate what I’ve had in my life and family.” Rob is a strong advocate of the work BGCC does. Over the years, he’s heard many success stories of how youth were helped, a testament that the programs work. “There is a definite appeal to enabling youth and kids to achieve their potential.” “There is a definite appeal to enabling youth and kids to achieve their potential.” ~ Rob Solinger Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary • Annual Report 2012 5 Family Supports Children need love and care no matter what Tamara* was physically, emotionally and sexually abused by family members and other people throughout her life. Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary (BGCC) first came into contact with her when Tamara reached out to the police for help to escape her pimp, who had stabbed her for running away before. She needed a safe place to go. In her short 15 years on earth, she had been in 44 different homes, none of which lasted longer than a month. Tamara had a hard time accepting love and help from others because it was something she had never experienced in her life. After coming off the street, Tamara became a resident of BGCC’s Eleanor’s House, which provides housing and support to young people at risk-of, or involved in, sexual exploitation (sexual abuse involving the exchange of a sexual act for money, drugs, food, shelter or any other consideration). Eleanor’s House had been working on a new approach which proves to the youth that staff would never give up on them, while still helping them to understand the outcomes of their actions and choices. Tamara did what she could – destroy property, verbally abuse staff, threaten harm, run away, use drugs, drink alcohol – to get the staff to give up on her. They never did. Nobody else had ever stuck around long enough to allow Tamara’s good side to come through. Eventually it did. Eleanor’s house became the longest place she had ever stayed at one time. Through the love and commitment of the staff, Tamara now has the tools to make better choices about relationships, behaviours and her future. Highlights of 2012 Foster Parents and children, along with the foster child’s biological family members got together to create a unique and memorable Christmas event that gave the children a chance to experience the warmth of secure relationships and helped them to have a sense of trust in their world. Home-Start volunteers make a total of 1,000 home visits offering friendship and support to families with young children who may be struggling with a variety of issues related to parenting. Youth at Grimmon House participated in an innovative Equine Experiential Learning program. The youth learned emotional and communication skills as they worked with horses, which are very responsive to human behaviour. One youth, as she picked out her horse said, “I want to be like him. He is wise and stands up for himself.” 6 Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary • Annual Report 2012 *Name changed to protect identity Community Clubs & Experiential Learning How Camp Adventure improved Danica’s confidence Some kids pretend to be someone they aren’t as a way of coping in life. Danica* was one of them. She was given the opportunity to go to Camp Adventure for a week and was a little uncertain about going. She was going to be “missing out” on her social life in the city and just wanted to “hang” at home. Her complaints continued throughout her first day at camp. Danica was taken aside by camp staff and asked to try and give the new experience a chance. They asked her to be a leader for the other youth because she was the oldest at the camp that week. fun and be a leader for her peers “without having to act all tough.” She agreed to try to be positive and make the most of it. Over the course of the next day Danica became increasingly engaged in camp activities and extremely vocal with her peers about trying each new experience at camp. By the end of her week at camp, Danica was leading camp songs and was by far and away the most engaged camper that week. The change in her attitude and willingness to participate was a complete 180 degree turn. Danica loved camp so much she wanted to sign up to be a counselor in training. She loved how she could be silly at camp, have Danica’s involvement with Community Clubs and Experiential Learning programs shows the unique experiences BGCC give to youth to help them gain confidence and skills for the future. *Name changed to protect identity Highlights of 2012 Over 730 campers were given the adventure of a lifetime at Camp Adventure, which for many was made possible thanks to the Canada Safeway Foundation. The camp includes activities that help build self-esteem, skills, confidence and independence through wilderness experiences in Kananaskis Country. Teen membership and engagement in our Community Clubs tripled, keeping them safe off the streets and engaged in programs like Rogers Raising the Grade and Teen Drop-In. Math Minds, an initiative of Canadian Oil Sands Limited, is bringing the JUMP Math program to Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary. JUMP Math lessons are uniquely designed so that everyone can learn math and love it. Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary • Annual Report 2012 7 Education & Employment Teen learns to choose the positive pathway Angela’s involvement in high-risk activities in her life resulted in a referral to Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary’s Hera program. Hera is a specialized year round program, run in partnership with the Calgary Board of Education, for adolescent girls who are at risk of sexual exploitation. Hera works with girls to help them complete their education while also offering support through learning activities, mentoring, in-home support, individual and group therapy. The program helps young woman commit to their education and develop the life skills that are required to move forward into a positive and healthy future. When Angela* first arrived at Hera she was extremely shy and would isolate herself from others. Over her time in the program, Angela’s skills have blossomed. She is now a young woman who can share her thoughts and ideas in a conversation and she is able to not only advocate for herself, but advocates for the needs of others. Her witty side comes out in general conversation and she has been known to make everyone on the Hera team laugh. Angela has greatly improved her skills in building and maintaining healthy relationships; this is evident in her dedication to her younger siblings. Angela also actively participates in BGCC after-school programming, providing her with positive activities and keeping her focused on her education. Angela has become stable, both in the program as well as at home. She has transitioned back to mainstream high school. Angela is also residing in a safe kinship placement and reaches out to staff in times of need, which is one of the many skills she was able to improved on while at Hera. Highlights of 2012 Reconnecting Aboriginal Individuals with Skills for Employment (R.A.I.S.E) work experience program launched providing Aboriginal youth ages 15 to 30 with the skills needed to obtain employment. 100% of the participants successfully graduated from the program. In the Centennial Anniversary of the Calgary Stampede and our 40th year in partnership, 220 youth were employed at the event through our Calgary Stampede Work Experience Program providing over half of them their first work experience and giving them all valuable work skills. The Food and Nutrition at School (FANS) program served healthy breakfast, lunch and snack items to over 13,884 hungry children and youth in every quadrant of Calgary. Of that number, 86% of the at-risk students who participated in FANS increased their school attendance. 8 Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary • Annual Report 2012 *Name changed to protect identity Youth Housing & Shelter Maria finds support and family at Avenue 15 Shelter Being adopted at a young age from China, Maria* never felt she was treated as one of the family. The troubles started when they moved from Ontario to Calgary. The stress of the move changed the dynamics in the family. Nobody seemed happy anymore and depression settled into the house. making other negative decisions, including not going to school. The situation got so bad that Maria couldn’t stand it anymore. Her efforts to make things better at home and between her and her parents didn’t work. She felt her only option was to run away. At the age of 16, Maria permanently left her adoptive family. Maria then went through a phase of partying and drugs. That lead her to start stealing and “They helped me by giving me a safe place to be. The staff took time to know me and help me discover what I was capable of,” said Maria. “They became advocates on my behalf in whatever goal I wanted to achieve.” One day Maria decided to prove she could do better and the Avenue 15 Youth Homeless Shelter became the medium that made it all happen. The shelter provides a sleeping alternative to the streets, but also includes additional support to reconnect youth their family and/ or long-term supports in the community. Maria is on her way to accomplishing all the goals she set for herself in order to become a self-sufficient adult. “Boys and Girls Clubs of Calgary helped me by giving me a safe place to be. The staff took time to know me and help me discover what I was capable of; they became advocates on my behalf in whatever goal I wanted to achieve.” *Name changed to protect identity Highlights of 2012 Of the youth who stayed at the Avenue 15 Homeless Youth Shelter 89% were discharged to a safe place and 73% were placed into transitional or permanent housing. 392 calls were made to the 403-828-HOPE Assessment and Referral service, an initiative designed to ensure vulnerable youth are connected to the right programs and supports to divert or end their experience with homelessness. 90% of youth were diverted from homelessness through the Elements program.
